Strong morals and ethics do not derive from religion, they are inherent to evolved human thought. But religions have co-opted morals and ethics and like to claim that you have to be religious to be imbibed with them from "god".
When you say you want to live in a Christian society, I would posit that you want to live in a moral and ethical society.
Drop the crutch of religion and stand on your own. Or keep the crutch, but recognize it for what it is.
