I am sorry about the condition of your relative. I have a good friend from High School many years ago who went down exactly the same path. That road also led him to drugs, suicide attempts, and a truly wretched life.

I am a sinner too, we all are. If we were not sinners, then there would not have been any reason for the Christ to be scourged, tortured, and executed on a cross. But He did choose that path, because He wanted to save us.

I am so grateful that God promised to be sufficient enough, merciful enough, and loving enough to forgive us our sins if we confess them and are truly repentant. If I didn't have that gift from God, then I tell you I deserve Hell as much as anyone.

On the cultural side, we must remember this: the United States stands alone in the world as the only Christian nation. A majority of our population profess a belief and are Christians. No other nation on earth can say this.

If anyone wonders why America is the target of immoral and evil clutches, both from within and from without, all they have to do is ponder that.

Many of the posters on these threads make me believe we have a better than average chance to win this cultural war.
