Getting God back into our government and educational system. Since we have booted Him everything has been circling the drain. In turning from God America has become selfish. We have entered the era of
self first others last. Selfishness is the death knell of a society. This is what Edward Gibbons had to say in "
Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire"
| "In the end, more than they wanted freedom, they wanted security. They wanted a comfortable life and they lost it all - security, comfort and freedom. When the Athenians finally wanted not to give to society, but for society to give to them; when the freedom they wished for most was the freedom from responsibility, then the Athenians ceased to be free." |
America was founded on the principles of the Bible.
| "The moral principles and precepts contained in the Scriptures ought to form the basis of all our civil constitutions and laws. All the miseries and evils which men suffer from vice, crime, ambition, injustice, oppression, slavery, and war, proceed from their despising or neglecting the precepts contained in the Bible.---Noah Webster |
The neglect of these values are what has given birth to evils such as abortion and the advocacy of homosexuality. America is suffering from the "I" disease. Much is expressed in terms of
Self Esteem instead of what we can do to please God or do what is right. The cure is allowing God back into the government and education.
One could say that Abortion, Homosexuality and excess government spending are weeds coming up in the garden we call America. We can't get rid of these weeds until we kill the root. The root of the problem is allowing the schools to teach children that some chance process created them instead of God.
