We are well familiar with the condition of up to half of America. We see it every day on television and read about it on Breitbart or the Drudge Report. The other half is us. What is inexplicable to many of us in that latter half is how we can continue to give seemingly unconditional support to Donald Trump given who he has turned out to be. The political prognosis as to our liberty is far worse than we thought it to be in November.
When a whole people collapses it is often hard to determine the year of its collapse...sometimes even the decade of the collapse. So when was ours? A more appropriate question would be...when as a people did we forget God....in what decade did we officially deny Him?
I was at Barnes & Noble bright and early last Tuesday for the releases of Crushing The Collective, The Last Chance To Keep America Free And Self-Governed." by Charles W. Sasser. This is my habit on purchasing new books on Communism. I highly recommend it. If your understanding of Communism comes solely from the American education system then you could use this book. As a people we have been taught little to nothing on Communism and what we have been taught is often skewed in favor of Communism. There is a reason and an explanation for this and you can begin your research with this very easy to read and digest book.
Many have referenced historian Edward Gibbon on reasons for the fall of the Roman Empire. Mr. Sasser does the same thing in these seventeen reasons as they are shown in his book. Consider them if you will and form your own opinions if they relate to our having forgotten God. Yes, we must continue to try....but unless we first look within ourselves....at our own culpability....even in the church....the very best we can do is restore our hope from this past November....which is really no hope at all without first humbling ourselves before our God and our Creator.
undermining of the dignity and sanctity of home and family
military buildups against enemies outside, when the real decadence was within
a mad craze for pleasure and entertainment
decay of religion and spirituality
weakened people prone to outsourcing their duties to immigrants and barbarian mercenaries
men becoming too effeminate and cowardly to live a tougher, "manly' lifestyle
inflation and all-consuming taxation
a top-heavy expanded bureaucracy
concentrated political power and accompanying corruption
loss of historical traditions
general immorality and sexual perversions
a welfare state
government oppression
redistribution of dwindling wealth
reliance on military power
debasement of currency
failure to provide incentives for intellectual and economic efforts
