I don't think that is correct at all. You make it seem that things were morally and spiritually better in the past. That is decidedly not true as any reading of history will tell you. Great evil and decadence has flourished throughout the whole of human civilization. Countless millions of people were enslaved, exterminated, or otherwise kept in their places while being ruled by a small elite who lived extremely decadent lives.

Take the popes, kings and other rulers of the medieval era for instance, their lifestyles make today's politicians look like Boy Scouts.

In fact, we are living in a time where the average human has an astonishing amount of freedom, wealth and privilege. There is actually much less deviant and criminal behavior going on. Think about this: The streets of Manhattan are among the safest in the world - try walking the same streets just 50 years ago at night. The only difference is our mass media culture. Some pervert in Tulsa, Oklahoma can make national headlines where in earlier days, nobody ever would have heard of him. Don't let the 157 channels on television make you think the world is going to hell in a hand-basket. If they had cable TV in 1850s America, there would be plenty of horrible stuff to show.

You don’t call sodomite “marriage” and the US government forcing perverted sex acts on the rest of the country as deviate behavior. When has the United States ever condoned such immoral garbage. George Washington and the other Founding Fathers are rolling over in their graves. The American Medical Association since it’s inception classified homosexuality for exactly what it is, a mental disorder, until the radical sodomites got to them then the meaning was changed. All the sudden nothing wrong with sodomy. I could go on and on. Nothing is as deviate as a man having anal sex with another man and the Federal government legalizing perversion and saying they can now get “married”. Ever saw a baby come through the anus into this world?
