Democrats literally suffer from Stockholm Syndrome.
2Thessalonians 2:11
And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie
This is an “end times” verse.
Nowadays, good is evil, evil is good, bitter is sweet, sweet is bitter, down is up and up is down, round is square and square is round.
According to Romans 13, the job of government is to punish evildoers and reward those that do good.
Well, with good and evil swapped, those who are Biblically evil are reworded, and those who are Biblically good are punished.
There is more and more of this every day.

I posted some brief thoughts on this in the past. The rise of homosexuality is like a precursor to Judgment according to Romans. Europe and U.S. are without excuse. The people who have hardened their hearts are the descendants of people once enlightened by the gospel.
Isaiah 19 concerns a prophecy for Egypt but it seems like a list of current events. Forgive me for paraphrasing for sake of brevity
2 “I will stir up Egyptian against Egyptian, brother will fight against brother,
= possible coming civil war
6 The canals will stink; and 8 The fishermen will groan and lament,
= gulf oil spill
13 The officials of Zoan have become fools, the leaders of Memphis [a] are deceived; the cornerstones of her peoples have led Egypt astray.
= corrupt leaders and corrupt churches/religions
14 The LORD has poured into them a spirit of dizziness;
= Zero nuts
16 In that day the Egyptians will be like women.
= gays?
Is that the story about Adam & Steve?
People years back started believing the lie of "Separation of Church and State." With that lie came the lie of "You can't legislate morality."
Many people now have bought into those lies. There is no "moral" foundation to fall back on. The reason for that comes down to: "Who's moral code" are we going to use? Judeo-Christian beliefs? Sharia law?
“did anyone 20 years ago see it growing to the extent it has today? “
I recall telling my wife many years ago that since queers don’t have children, it is normal that they have more time to further their education during their working careers, which would propel them into the upper corporate ranks. From there they will gain positions from which they’ll be able to influence city halls, the state and federal legislatures. Then it will smoothly pervade the public educational systems.
Neither of us had a publicly acceptable answer for it then and we still don’t.
hugh and very series.
Another instance of the roles of good and evil being reversed it abortion and the death penalty. It has always been very curios to me why those who are so adamantly opposed to the death penalty for the most evil of our society are the very same people who are are proponents of abortion on demand of our most innocent.
I actually know people who voted for him and still like him.
Are you suggesting that they don’t have free will, and that they cannot come to Christ because God has blinded them?
Does God give one chance, two, three....or how many...until He blinds people?
Or is everyone blind, and only those whose hearts are opened does He grant the power to receive the truth?
Obama is a symptom of the disease. But I am astounded how homosexuality is accepted, at least by the media. I’m sure it was similar in the days of Sodom and Gomorrah.
The whole answer to your post lies in the rest of Romans Chapter 1 which you quoted from. The second half of Romans 1 describes a scenario we see quite vividly today. In Romans 1:18-32 Paul describes a situation where God punishes those who would deny and turn away from him. His punishment is to turn them over to thier own sin and let them descend in it in an ever growing degeneration. Three times Paul says "and God gave them over..." as punishment for ignoring him. The penalty for sin is more sin. God takes away his common grace and lets us sink as far as we want to go until "though they know God's decree that those who practise such things deserve to die, they not only do them but give approval tho those who practice them." We are seeing Romans One played out today before our very eyes.
