Perhaps a better title for this would have been “Has America Gone Insane?“
If you have not, you should sit down with a ‘baby-boomer’ and have a conversation with them about America. Buy them coffee and ask them if they see this nation in the same light as they did in childhood. Most, if not all, will categorically tell you they no longer recognize the United States.
Once upon a time in our country, prime-time television consisted of ‘The Lucy Show,’ in which Ricky and Lucy were shown going to bed in separate beds. Western shows had Matt Dillon in love with Miss Kitty (Gunsmoke) and only occasionally would kiss her on the cheek, but only after saving Dodge City and her from a desperado who came to shoot up the town. The shows Fathers Knows Best, Leave It to Beaver, and Andy Griffith almost always had a theme of teaching respect, honor, honesty, self-reliance, and being neighborly as their prime focus.
The music industry sang about falling in love: “My Girl,” “My Boyfriend’s Back,” and “I Wanna Hold Her Hand.” Police officers often knew most of the residents who lived on their beats, and most of the homes in our nation were comprised of mothers, fathers, children, and Labrador retrievers. The bulk of our nation attended church on Sunday, and then it was off to grandma’s house afterward for a Sunday dinner where roast beef was served with a smile and plenty of love. Children were disciplined in the classroom, and when you went home, mom often had freshly baked cookies to soothe the pain of finding out that the object of your affection in class had passed a note to his or her new “love.” And that’s the way it was in our country. The President, Congressmen, Senators, Police Officers, Firemen, and Service Members were to be respected. Astronauts were superheroes, as were Micky Mantle, Roger Staubach, and Wilt Chamberlin.
Today, most music is filled with four-letter words, and the music known as Rap is filled with raping women, killing police officers, and worse. And these are the top-selling artists (if you can call them that) on the charts. We have ‘married men’ adopting children as normality on television, then kissing and going off to bed together. Cities and towns routinely criticize and protest against our law enforcement, then ‘defund’ these departments, and we wonder why murder, rapes, robberies, and more have risen so much. Almost everyone you know has had a drug addiction, death from an overdose, or alcoholism affect them and their families in some shape or form.
Pornography used to be relegated to some seedy theater in a back ally on the “bad” side of town. Today, it is on billboards, your cell phone, the computer, and even to some degree in mainstream television. There is no getting away from it. Women and men both are on large posters at the shopping mall advertising undergarments with little left to the imagination. Our children today have almost lost the ability to socialize and make friends because they all have their faces glued to a cell phone and they text instead of talking in person. And we wonder, “What happened?”
Former President Richard Nixon was forced from office because he was simply ‘caught’ lying about a break-in and claiming he didn’t know. Today, we have massive money laundering by a President through a cryptocurrency scheme with foreign nations to fund his party’s campaigns. And nothing is done. We have a two-tiered Justice System, and nothing is done. We have a Congress that only shows up to collect a paycheck and seems to have forgotten that they have a duty to ‘preserve, protect, and defend’ our Constitution. Political parties only seem to fight rather than work for our nation’s betterment.
God is gone from our government, classrooms, neighborhoods, and the courthouse square. Naked or near-naked people dance down the middle of the street (and in some cases) and have sex in the middle of the street, all in the name of equality. Men dressed as women use the same locker room to shower and dress with girls (our daughters), all because they say they are a girl trapped in a boy’s body. In some locations, these same men use a public restroom with your 9-year-old daughter, and it is legal. If you happen to use the word Sir when addressing this man dressed as a woman, you are now arrested for not using the proper ‘pronoun.”
I ask again, “So what happened?” What happened in our nation to drive our society to adopt much of this insanity? Almost no politician today is honest. All or nearly all of them accept kickbacks from Big Pharma, the Military Industrial Complex, and many more lobbyists. None or nearly none campaign for office today simply because they want to serve the American people. They only serve to enrich themselves through the government, lobbyists, and Political Action Committees tit.
Our country is in a level of debt that we may never pay off, and it doesn’t seem as though anyone wants to pay it off anyway. As if the above wasn’t bad enough, we are now on the verge of a World War that has the very real possibility of ending all of mankind. What is going on? Why has our nation gone insane? Why are these corrupt politicians allowed to be in office? And lastly, why is our nation allowing this insanity to prevail, and why are we not confronting it and eradicating this bizarre behavior as a nation?
When boiling away all of the theoretical crap, the bottom line is, Satan is being allowed to run rampant. It is he who has turned what used to be right into wrong and what used to be wrong into normality. We have allowed it by turning our backs on God. Until this nation turns its collective face back toward God, this will only continue to dissolve into a modern-day Sodom and Gomorrah.
My suggestion is that we pray and pray hard that God returns to our land.

Amen, brother! Sad but true…
