Description

This book examines the modern culture and its effects.

These include dehumanization and degradation of people, growth of indifferent and legalistic attitudes, arbitrary justice, increased antisocial behavior, and disregard for the sacred, religious, and life itself, as our throwaway society becomes more selfish and prideful.

Comfort and pleasure now trump virtue and discipline.

This has produced self-centered individuals that reject traditions and who are rebelling against all authority.

The culture now condones the seven deadly sins as the norm, causing a decline in the health and spirit of the nation. Technology, legislatures, and courts are progressively limiting parents ability to instill traditional values and to protect their children from predators.

The media views freedom as license, and nihilism is rising.

Sinuous pleasures, self-indulgence, and feelings over logical thinking are emphasized.

Logic is replaced by experiential and inferential thinking that easily misleads.

A brave new world is being foisted on the public that, instead of producing happy and healthy citizens, leads to anger, frustration, depression, sickness, and lost hope.

A conundrum exists: wanting it all may mean that everything that is important is lost. Hope lies in recapturing our Christian roots, as 80 percent of Americans claim to believe in God.

By their actions, these citizens hold the key to moderating the culture by holding firm to their belief in God, country, family, traditions, and honor.

To effect change, they must, however, make Jesus love known through charity, and their voices heard in the marketplace of ideas.
