History seems to be sliding towards some kind of dystopian sci-fi senario, where the whole 20th-Century cold war is farcically reversed... Russia and Putin standing up for values and Christianity, while America decays into some kind of degenerate Homo-America, wallowing in evil. Statism and one-party tyranny, with the backdrop of a twerking Miley Cyrus and her hyperkinetic lizard-tongue. All while Russia (of all places) becomes the last hope of preserving Western civilization. Surreal.

I am not much of a Bible scholar, but I think that one of the recurring themes of the Old Testament is that when Israel forsake its God for the fertility and orgiastic gods of their neighbors, Israel fell into captivity. This seems to be happening anew, with Israel/Christianity going over to the gods of hedonism and facing the encroachment of totalitarian statism and/or possible dominance by Islam. Western Europe is already very far down that road, perhaps irretrievably so, and we seem to be doing our best to catch up.
