How can the people who gave us the Magna Carta, who raised the concept of civilization around the world, who bravely fought off Hitler, who have been a symbol of stalwart defiance of evil and stiff upper lip support of human rights, be falling apart now and disregarding its own heritage?
It makes me sick....and frightened. Is this what happens when a nation turns away from God and believes in nothing?
Pretty much. Look what happened to the Roman empire, Mesopotamia.
Magna Carta, civilization, etc... Don’t forget that it was primarily the Brits, behind William Wilberforce, who broke the back of the slave trade, too. How are the mighty fallen!
Yes and also a nation that decides to not include appropriate historical facts about maniacle mass-murderer tyrants such as Adolph Hitler.
The appropriate psychological term going on hard now in the UK is called ‘relativism’. It’s basically says anything you do can be justified and so accountability really is up to the individual rather the a society who has rigid laws and enforces justice. Unfortunatley, it is also happening here as well. When I see school sport teams up through Junior High School not keep score because ‘every kid is a winner’ then I know something is wrong in the USA. Every human being in special, but not teaching that competition exists in the real world is beyond stupid, it is irresponsible and damaging to a child’s very future.
