We are rapidly becoming a third-world country. I know it for a fact - I’m living it.
The first world never got that way without faith in Christ (which is something more than cultural Christianity... just like the light bulb is more than the light it shines).
Ditch that, and at best you get a situation that looks like India. I commented about that to a colleague the other day. A few bright spots, and a lot of darkness and misery.
It will take all of us to turn it around......if it is even possible.
