Funny you would mention the Haight.
In April of 1967 I was in the Haight. It was lovely, full of promise.
In August I was there and I stood with the attitude of a pilgrim at the corner of Haight and Ashbury. A guy came up to me ans asked if I knew where he could get a gun. People had been stealing his drugs and he needed to put a stop to it.
I told him I had just arrived from the east and couldn’t help him. He left and I turned to my friends and said, “The Hippie movement is over. The Christians are right.”
THAT is astounding! And they were/are. By God’s grace i wrote an article a while back on Woodstock and one on Moral Decline for conservative encyclopedia and although there is more to analyze, the social/spiritual aspects are revealing.
