The Lost Soul of America
Our culture war has escalated to the point that, in the US Congress, one party believes that its primary duty is simply to stop the other.
We have a crisis of values — traditional values against a growing culture of self-indulgence. We have hypocritical politicians who decry the deaths of soldiers in war while enabling the killing of the most innocent imaginable — unborn children by the millions. We have politicians who can now seldom find common ground and are only interested in obstructionism and the acquisition of more and greater power.
Our great technological inventions have allowed our country — which much of the world perceives as a Christian nation, to export, via Hollywood and the Internet, some of the most depraved filth imaginable. Islamic terrorists falsely associate this trash with Christianity to both destroy our witness and bolster their war against us among Muslims.
During the prelude to the US Civil War, President Lincoln quoted Jesus Christ to illustrate the dangers of division; “A house divided against itself cannot stand”. There are few examples in our history when we have been more divided than now.
Freedom has never been free. I challenge the reader to objectively research the beliefs and struggles of our nation’s founders. Our nation was founded by a great people who pledged an allegiance, and their very lives, to ultimate Truth.
If our people cannot find a way to reach back to our roots, back to a people who loved freedom but not anarchy nor licentiousness, then the soul of our once great nation may be already lost.
