I do not like this bashing of religions by anyone. I think it is high time to realize that we have had a few generations or so of kids who are now 18 plus who were taught by liberal teachers, influenced by every liberal entertainer, plus they are mostly lazy as hell with few exceptions. I hired a man to repair/replace white cedar siding as needed and paint it with two coats.He tried white boys/men about 20-40. The clowns worker two hours in the AM, took a three hour bar break,slopped on paint for one hour in the PM, and; they quit work at 3:00 PM. After three damn weeks and 20-30 new painters who could not paint a straight line-I fired all of the clowns. I never heard so many youngsters claim to be partially disabled. Not a one had served a day in the military. These damn punks were mostly obese. They cannot or will not work. The military will not take them.
And even playing sports requires frequent breaks, But this is a religious issue, as there is an ideology behind it, which is from Hell, that of “climbing up some other way” (Jn. 10:1) to power, etc. than thru merit, which the devil tried, (Is. 14), and the victim-entitlement mentality which calls the worthy to “share the wealth,” power and position with those who demand it, and who feel justified in taking it, which the devil worked to instill in Eve. (Gn. 3)
i tell you soberly that today’s pre-college (secular seminary) youth are the most open to any ideology than ever before. And as saith Daniel Webster,
If religious books are not widely circulated among the masses in this country,become of us as a nation. If truth be not diffused, error will be; If God and His Word are not known and received, the devil and his works will gain the ascendancy; If the evangelical volume does not reach every hamlet, the pages of a corrupt and licentious literature will;
If the power of the Gospel is not felt throughout the length and breadth of the land, anarchy and misrule, degradation and misery, corruption and darkness will reign without mitigation or end.” (Tryon Edwards, “A Dictionary of Thoughts: Being a Cyclopedia of Laconic Quotations from the Best Authors of the World, Both Ancient and Modern ,”1908. p. 49)
