Moral Decline

A new report put out by the United Nations claims that most of the world is in denial about the horror of human trafficking. Instead of going away, human slavery is getting even worse and more widespread in the 21st century.

Exactly how many people are being trafficked?

The U.S. State Department says that there are 800,000 new victims each year, while the International Labor Organization claims that the number is actually about 2.5 million.

The executive director of the UN Office on Drugs and Crime, Antonio Maria Costa, had this to say about the report: "It's sick that we should even need to write a report about slavery in the 21st century."

Actress Mira Sorvino has been appointed as a U.N. goodwill ambassador to help Costa's agency fight human trafficking, and she had this to say about the human trafficking phenomenon: "Until a few years ago, I blissfully believed that slavery was a thing of the past.....Well, obviously I was terribly wrong."

According to the U.N. report, sexual exploitation accounts for 79 percent of human trafficking, while forced labor accounts for 18 percent.

So just who is being trafficked?

The report says that women are 66 percent of the victims, followed by young girls at 13 percent, men at 12 percent, and young boys at 9 percent.

And you know what makes this worse?

Sickos from the United States are fueling much of this.

The term "sex tourism" has actually become part of the English language over the past decade as thousands upon thousands of Americans (and Europeans too) have flown to foreign countries to have sex with these sex slaves. Often these sex slaves are only young boys or young girls.

Our world is becoming full of sickos and perverts just as 2 Timothy 3:1-4 warned us would happen in the last days before the return of Christ.....

"But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God"
