Are We Missing The Boat

 


For a long time, I have known that we, as a nation, are deteriorating. I have said that the problem is found in 3 areas: decay in the family, decay in our belief in God, and no understanding of patriotism. This came on the TV and confirmed my fears. 

Family: For some time, it has been convenient to divorce when things just go wrong. It seems that for a long time, couples would persevere and work through their problems. This left the family structure intact, with a mother figure and a father figure. Each brings something to the family that ALL children need.
Then we began hearing how the Black culture was missing Father figures. The women would have children and sometimes they would not even know their fathers, leaving the women to raise the children alone....and sometime leaving them to be raised by grandparents. 
Now we have gay marriages that have children??? How could that be (BIOLOGY TELLS YOU THAT IS NOT POSSIBLE)...well, it's not possible without invitro fertilization. There was an article last week in the paper about how 3 different girls were searching for answers about medical issues using their DNA.....well, turns out they learned that they have over 300 siblings. Sperm donor banks often do not monitor the amount that is sold. I can only imagine what the children of the future are going to face. 

Religion: we are being bashed from every angle for our belief system. This nation was founded on Christian principles. We must be aware of wolves in sheep clothing. If you don't believe it, look up the TRUE history of why there was immigration in the 1600-1700s. They were searching for religious freedoms and they found this nation on their Christian beliefs, not free from God, but free to worship as they pleased. Now we are demonized for our beliefs, for being good decent human beings, excepting others just as Christ did. The word Jesus is a frightening reality for many. There is a lawlessness and a desire to just do what feels good, to rewrite history, to do as we please in the here and now. AND... Never think that the middle Eastern culture is the same. 

Patriotism: we are losing the last generation that had to fight in an ALL OUT WAR where it took the WHOLE nation to come together to defeat our enemies. The young people are losing sight of what the cost of that was in the form of giving your life for our freedoms. There are too many keyboard warriors that have no idea what courage it took to lay it all on the line for our beliefs. Self-gratification and lack of responsibility and owning your own problems/situation is creating a huge problem for the strong will of our people. Some can't even tell you who we fought in the Revolution.
