The state of our society and modern-day culture here in America is sickening, to say the least. It’s no secret that with the spearhead of the 60’s secular leftist/ socialist movement, America has reaped “a whirlwind” of societal consequences that are indeed devastating.
Secular Liberalism
The non-absolute morality and godless religious ideology of the secular left has permeated into all aspects of our once dominant Judean/ Christian heritage and culture. The Social climate of today’s America is so decadent, so immoral, so base and so lewd that it has passed the point of remediation to the point of no return.
The majority of people look at the surface of our societal ills and gullibly think that things aren’t as bad as they seem. The fact is, though, that our society is contaminated to the very core. The steak - as it were - has been left out of the refrigerator too long, and no “conservative ideology” revival or leadership can restore this rotting corpse (see Isaiah 1:5-6). Once a nation is given over to the basest of ideals (i.e., secular socialism) and moral practices, it is just a matter of time before it implodes on itself in rottenness (see Romans 1:18-32). As one who loves my country I take no delight in declaring this, but the present status of our society and culture compels making an objective assessment. May we as a people learn the lessons of history, and may she be our wise teacher. Every nation that has gone down this path has not survived.

If you ever thought our country or any other was “saved” you were mistaken. Never happened since original sin.
God has a funny way of washing away the filth after things collapse.
Never ever stated that my friend... no Nation was ever “saved†only individuals are “saved†by faith in the Savior of the world. (John 1:12) Try reading the whole post first... it usually helps to understand the mood of the piece.. then you can feel free to comment on it...lol
Keep your reading advice to yourself.
Wow “Freeper”... that sounds like a Leftist policy to me... Humm.... makes you wonder.... lol
I never said the World could work without God, But he can sure work without the World.
My bad..
Ain’t that the truth! Rev. 4:11
So we see the revelation.
I do trust in God, but I am not fatalistic and I believe in the basic goodness of Americans (with a few bad tendencies, such as the Resident of the White House).
You know not the day of the second coming. Don’t pretend that you do. No one knows.
I believe this can be a period of enlightenment, culturally, economically, and spiritually, since our government is currently bankrupt of all three.
I’m not giving up on America, even though she committed a catastrophic error last November.
Sometimes these things become a turning point.
I know God hasn’t given up on us.
And You sure haven’t given up on God.
Amen!
Signed other day for one dollar
Barack Obama stands front and center now, offering the age-old false promise that mankind can save itself through “collective redemption,” and simply because he employs Christian language and symbols, no genuine lovers of God will be fooled.
Hope in God?
Or hope in Obama?
I thank God every day for giving us Americans such a clear and easy choice. Perhaps He is simply using Barack Obama to separate a bit of chaff from the grain.

For when was vice more rampant?
When did the maw of Avarice gap wider?
When was gambling more reckless?
