God’s doing just fine.
It’s our secular, left-wing culture that isn’t faring so well.
Nihilists/existentialists/materialists/and Shameless Democrats have no other option than to __lie to themselves__:
The Ten Commandments of Nihilism: Left, Bereft, and F'ed
The Graven and Craven Images of the Nihilist (2nd commandment))
The Third Commandment of Nihilism: You Shall Have a Vanity Plate in Your Head
Evolution vs. Revolution: On Spending Timelessness With Yoursoph (4th commandment)
ever notice that the various cults of the 1970s recruited
from the kids of the years just after prayer was forbidden?
the immune system analogy is interesting. I’m trying to
recall an Irving Babbit passage about how a leftist (that
wasn’t his term) arrives at an *inverted* scale of values,
not simply a defective one. but I’m just no up too finding
the book and looking at this time.
I don’t think God loses any sleep regarding popularity contests.
RE: I dont think God loses any sleep
“He who watches over you will not slumber; indeed, he who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.” ( Psalms 121:3,4)
I hope you are not suggesting that a sprinkle of prayer and scripture in the morning would fix socialist, collectivist, and voter mob run schools? We know what Christ does with the lukewarm. He spits them out of His mouth!
The 1970s was merely a result of at least 3 generations of secular humanist curriculum. My grandmother who was born in 1894, attended government schools that taught from a strictly secularist worldview. Her education was remarkably different in nearly every way from that of my mother and me. Yes, my grandmother had a sprinkle of prayer in the morning. Yes, her teachers were Christian and brought their influence into the class room, but the worldview of the curriculum was officially godless.
I attended government school from 1962 to 1964. Even by then, my high school my government teachers were already pushing the boundaries of edgy. And...We still have a dab of prayer and scripture in the morning with an occasional carol or hymn sung by the school chorus.
We can not send generations of children into godless government schools and expect our nation to thrive. Eventually, the culture will unravel. In the 1970s the culture finally began tearing at the seams.
