Answers in Genesis believes that the debasement of civilization increased with the attack on the origins of mankind as found in Genesis. IOW, if you are able to convince the population that God did not make man in His image in six literal days, then it’s easy to convince everyone that killing an unborn baby is fine, homosexual marriage is ok and giving control of your life to the government is what’s best for you.
Exactly. If you devalue man as a child God then man is no different than chimps.
