They are also the first generation to have every lie ever told at its fingertips.
And they also have every bit of disinformation conceivable ready to indoctrinate them in to every form of extremism conceivable. From Islam to Communism.

At the end of the day, Romans 1 will always exist.
However, the majority of human history is one of being at war with God, or even the idea of a single all powerful and authoritative God. At some level, we all desire to be our own boss.
However, man was not created as a robot, but rather given a will, as well as an basic inherited conscience of right and wrong. Again, while spelled out in numerous text, the message is wrapped up well in Romans 1.
As many know, secular humanism did not start in the 1800’s with the publication of the “Humanist Manifesto I” (the core faith and belief system and foundation of most socialists/communists including Marx), or later in HM II, it began in Genesis, when Adam and Eve decided to cave in to the temptation of The Lie, that *the creature is greater than the creator. Adam and Eve desired, believed, and decided to replace God’s authority with their own, rebelling against the one single command God gave them, simultaneously becoming their own gods and authority on right and wrong,(morality). They wanted and temporarily decided to dictate their own morality, just as we are seeing become prevalent in our own society today!
We are also told in numerous texts, in the last days, also referred to as “the time of Christ”, “The day of the Lord” (the time period of Christ’s return), also synonymous with the time when Isreal would be reborn or brought back from around the world to the land of Israel (where God had spread them because of there rebellion against Him), men would become as evil as in the days of Noah.
Any cursory look at the “days of Noah” is explicit, and literally states: “and every man did what was right in his own eyes”. Also, witchcraft, paganism (worship of the creatures and beasts, and the earth itself), and worship of demons and Satan were rampant in “the days of Noah”.
Again, as a society, and societies globally, we are rapidly moving toward the fulfillment of the numerous warnings given about the immorality which will exist in an unbelievably horrific time before the return of Christ. In fact, Scripture even states, “if the Son of God did not intervene, man would destroy himself”.
In many of the same text’s, we are warned in detail that while religiosity and ecumenicism will grow very popular, there will be a “great apostasy” by those societies which once specifically had large segments of society which believed in the gospel of Christ. Most people will reject the message, validity, and authority of the Gospel of Christ specifically.
While it is true, almost nothing moves in a straight line, as individuals and society generally move away from the authority of God, they simultaneously and generally become their own authorities on right and wrong. Has anyone ever met two people with the same morality? If we do not believe in Gods existence and the subsequent authority of God, then ALL men simply become subject to the ever changing (devolving) morality of men, or in time a man.
As we have biblical warnings of how men (society) would be as evil as in the “days of Noah”, where “every man did what was right in his own eyes”, we are explicitly told during this same period of time just before the return of Christ, there would be real escalation of - murder of the innocent (babies and young children), and “they (both men and women) will give up the natural for the unnatural”, (homosexuality), and people would become lovers of themselves and pleasure and evil. Scripture literally states this.
Drawing from the same warning, BOTH the morality and beliefs of men and women would be increasingly dictated by their own “lust”, or ever increasing desire for self gratification!
As well, during this same time, the period leading to the time of Christ return, people will have the desire to hear what makes them feel good about themselves! Regardless of how immoral they become!
This means people will not accept hearing the truth, or any warning their positions and activities are destructive and hurt their own children. Rather, they will go to war with anyone who they perceive will get in the way of their rejection of all moral boundaries and horrific trajectory.
These are specific details, which coincide with the rejection of God’s authority and His word being simultaneously replaced with the shifting morality, or immorality of individuals.
This article truly reflects what happens to individuals and society when men rule themselves and society!
Also, this entire subject absolutely drives home the warning George Washington gave to our nation:
“And let us with caution indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion. Whatever may be conceded to the influence of refined education on minds of peculiar structure – reason and experience both forbid us to expect that National morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle.”
“Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, Religion and morality are indispensable supports. In vain would that man claim the tribute of Patriotism, who should labor to subvert these great Pillars of human happiness, these firmest props of the duties of Men and citizens.” – George Washington, Farewell Address, Sept. 19, 1796
The rejection of God and His blueprint for successful individuals and society and morality, and the corporate rejection of God’s moral code and truths found in the Bible, actually have corresponded with the break up of the home, violent crime, infanticide, euthanasia, loss of work ethic and debt, the near total rejection of all moral boundaries and simultaneous acceptance of all forms of moral perversion and sexual gratification by society, and a real war against Christianity and conservatism.
This war can only result in chaos and anarchy, denial of real justice and recourse against harm, and ironically, the inevitable result of the loss of freedom.
It is true and a bit ironic, as our society has already proven, the generational rejection of individual moral boundaries has resulted in; The break up of the American family, the need for more and larger prisons, stronger and more numerous laws, more law enforcement, loss of work ethic and massive entitlements (theft), loss of population and future tax base (abortion), massive and ever increasing size and authority and tyranny of government, and a debt broken system!
Paraphrasing a member of Woodrow Wilsons cabinet - The greatest impediment to a sovereign authoritative world government, was the American family and their faith in God. America was a nation of lions, and needed to be turned into a nation of dependent sheep. It was necessary to use the education system and all forms of communication to “demoralize”, to bring about the belief that God did not exist, and to cause the individual to reject morality. This would then result in the break up the family and neutralize patriotism, result in anarchy, and cause society to reject who we were.
William Penn once wrote: “Either men would be ruled by God, or he would be ruled by tyrants!”
Additionally, many millennials and others today regurgitate that morality, beliefs, and ethics are NOT related to economics and prosperity, or are separate and unrelated subjects, so they do not have to worry about the consequences of their moral decisions.
This is a real disaster in the making.
They are either lying, or just dumb and blind!
And we will all pay...
