Agreed! Without a real spiritual (Christian) awakening and a return to the Lord, we’re toast. It’s a world view issue and hearts must be changed one at a time. At least a few young men seem to be understanding that. May their tribe increase!
Excuse my gloom but being a Catholic, seeing our spiritual “leaders” respect idols, pachamamas, gay marriages, Satan clubs, etc., I am not hopeful there will be any awakening.
Then there’s Protestants, many of them have but a sprinkle of Christianity in their lives. Easter is bunnies and eggs in their windows, Christmas is trees and holly — nature symbols all.
More than half of everybody is fine with killing human babies, but they’re horrified if you menace birds, wear fur, eat meat, or set out kill traps. There’s a pattern there for sure.
The west is reverting to paganism, to savagery. Except savages tend to increase their tribes while we are below replacement rate.
We are toast indeed. Millennials are my peers, I know hundreds of them, and meet more every day. If the latest fashion is to lop off body parts they are all for it. I’ve lost count of those I’ve met, who have done that or eagerly look forward to the procedure. I’ve met professed satanists on prestigious campuses, never mind full-blown communists and advocates of terror. Ditto muslims who think women are property and whores for the taking, and all Christians rightly slain.
Today’s sermon at my church was about tolerance. Very few worshippers in attendance, of course. Tolerance now means anything goes.
For hope I have to look forward to the day after it all collapses. Then, if ever on this earth, there will be a rebirth.
