Think again.

I've thought about it plenty, thanks.

Why do you think this? Why do you assume these to be given?

Because the same problems reoccur time and again, and we don't try anything new. You might be able to point to an outlying incident, but that doesn't change the trend.

There might be a solution in sociology. The same science that shows us voters will vote to harm rivals sooner than they'll vote to help themselves out. The same science that shows how and why people spend their rent money on microtransactions and bad bets. The same science that shows how a nation go from detaining degenerates to mass execution in a matter of a couple of years.

We might work out a trick to get our school administrators to rethink funding massive contact sports programs rather than school lunches, but for the time being, we don't have that, and we're not figuring it out, and then there's people like you turning to scripture like homeopathy. You might say one person sinning is a choice, but when hundreds of millions behave contrary to their best interests, that's a flaw in the system.

And that's before we look at the specific history of how Christianity was repurposed into the pro-America, pro-capitalist, pro-property ideology that has elected officials disparaging dead high-school students.

But feel free to expect miracles in the future, if that's what you need to do. I'll base my expectations on the common behavioral trends, not the outlying data points. It'd be nice if I'm pleasantly surprised, but I don't expect it.
