If yes, what evidence can you cite, and what explanation can you offer?

Yes, rampant corruption.

Evidence #1: Washington D.C. (District of Corruption.)

Evidence #2: Wall Street.

Evidence #3: Collusion between Big Government, Big Business.

Evidence #4: Waste, Fraud, Abuse of every single "benefits" program in this country, enabled by the Government, taken advantage of and exploited by otherwise able bodied people.

Evidence #5: Those who walked away from their mortgage obligations because their homes were financially under-water and decided to stop paying their mortgages, which hurt the rest of us, while benefitting them.

I can keep going. To ignore the rampant corruption in this country at every level of government and business, and frankly, at an individual level is a fools errand.

Understand one thing: Good and Evil exists in this world. There *IS* a spiritual battle going on. I cite corruption as ONE EXAMPLE of evidence that the spiritual battle is happening.

Look at the lack of value this country places on the sanctity, dignity, and beauty of human life -- at all stages.

54,000,000+ murdered, unborn human children. How is that not spiritual warfare? How is killing an innocent, unborn, defenseless human being not evil?

How is it so called "Pastors" and "Priests" can say "God bless Planned Parenthood" or "Thank God for abortion!" when both are blatantly evil by definition of the word?

Even moreso, how can anyone look at what's happening in today's world and NOT see that there's a spiritual battle between Good and Evil going on right now, and that the battle has been escalating for a very, very long time?

Ephesians 6:12 'For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.'

And finally, how topical this is right now since I'm re-reading Isaiah these past few days:

Isaiah 5:20-21 (20) 'Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!'(21) 'Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight!'
