I want to talk about something that’s happened gradually over the last few decades. We as a nation have changed morally in some really big ways. I believe we have fallen a long way from where we were a few generations ago and a lot in the last decade.

Back in the fifties and sixties, we were shocked if an unwed woman were to become pregnant. Abortions were seldom practiced and were not publicized. Homosexuality was something to be ashamed of. Almost every business was closed on Sunday and most people went to church.

Back then, most neighborhoods were safe for kids to ride their bikes to the park and people used common sense and common courtesy.

Things have changed a lot since then and even in the last decade. When I was younger, I never would have believed that we would legalize gay marriage. Abortion has been legal for most of my life, but it still amazes me that we allow the murder of unwanted children.

We really have moved away from being a Christian nation and have almost no guiding principles in our country today. The average American today is influenced more by pop culture than they are by conscience.

We were founded as a Godly nation and on Christian principles. Now we are opposed to many of the principles our founding fathers lived by. Almost all of these changes in morals have happened gradually.

The sad thing is, many people think we have evolved into a better nation. They think we have advanced in our thinking. Here’s a thought, ‘What do you think God thinks about our moral changes?’
