In the United States today, moral relativism rules. Long ago, the nation as a whole rejected God's laws, and now everyone pretty much does what is right in his or her own eyes. People mostly make us the rules as they go along. In fact, this whole country is just kind of making up the rules as we go along at this point. What is "right" and what is "wrong" has become completely clouded. Our young people have no moral compass. But this is what happens when a nation rejects God.
The following are 18 very disturbing signs of moral relativism in America in 2011....
*It is estimated that approximately 50 million babies have been aborted in the United States since 1973.
*Planned Parenthood received $363.2 million in government grants and contracts during its 2008-2009 fiscal year, according to the organization's annual report. That was up from $349.6 million in fiscal year 2007-08.
*The board of the American Conservative Union has approved a homosexual Republican group for a planning role in the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), a major annual event in Washington, D.C., that draws conservatives from across the country.
*Fresh off of the “don’t ask, don’t tell” victory, Vice President Joe Biden said in a morning show interview that legislation approving gay marriage is inevitable.
*The Obama administration has declared that the field of synthetic biology poses only "limited risks" and should not be restricted.
*By unanimous consent in the Senate, Chai Feldblum, a lesbian law professor and the primary author of the pro-homosexual Employment Non-Discrimination Act, was recently confirmed as a member of the powerful Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, which wields enormous power over the nation's employers.
*Nickelodeon’s new Illuminati-themed show House of Anubis, already airing in Belgium and Netherlands is due to air in the United States for the first time in January 2011.
*The Navy has opened an investigation into how a series of raunchy videos were produced and shown to the crew of the aircraft carrier USS Enterprise while on deployment supporting the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
*A Michigan man faces up to 5 years in prison for reading his wife's e-mail to find out if she was having an affair.
*CNN is reporting that an investigation has revealed that up to 5200 Pentagon employees may have been purchasing child pornography online.
*Victims of clerical sex abuse have reacted furiously to Pope Benedict’s claim yesterday that pedophilia wasn’t considered an “absolute evil” as recently as the 1970s.
*Planned Parenthood's website has announced that the group is preparing to launch a nationwide “social change initiative” to end the “stigma and shame about sex” in American culture.
*A new survey has found that 54 percent of "evangelical Protestants" believe that people from religions other than Christianity can get into heaven.
*According to a new Gallup poll, seven in 10 Americans say religion as a whole is losing its influence on American life. This is a near-record high percentage since Gallup began asking the question more than 50 years ago.
What in the world is happening to America.
How long will it be before God starts pouring out his judgment upon this nation?
In recent years, political correctness has taken over the public school classrooms in the United States and Canada. It is coming out that publishers are actually giving textbook writers social engineering guidelines that they are to follow. For example, one educational consultant in Canada has recently come forward and has admitted that he purposely featured girls in a positive light and boys in a negative light in textbooks due to the direction he was receiving from the publishers. The following quotes from that consultant recently appeared in a mainstream newspaper article up in Canada....
"If you had a picture of a person doing something positive, winning a race, performing an experiment successfully, etc., [you had to] make sure it was of a girl."
"If you had to have a picture of someone doing a bad thing - bullying, making a mistake, being unsure which course of action to take, etc. - the image was invariably of a boy."
"The side effect was to show the boys that they are rarely winners and we expect less of them."
"The unstated assumption was that boys did not need the same degree of encouragement."
Well, those are just words, right?
What kind of harm can they really do?
A lot, actually.
Today, boys rank far behind girls in nearly every measure of scholastic achievement in the United States and Canada.
Today, boys are much more likely to have behavior problems, much more likely to repeat a grade and much more likely to drop out of school altogether.
Today, women make up approximately 60 percent of the students at colleges and universities across the United States and Canada.
We have a huge problem.
Our boys are falling behind and they are not becoming men.
This yet another sign of the moral decline and the moral collapse that is going on in the United States and Canada.

In addition, we very much encourage you to visit our new website entitled "The Debt" along with some of our other websites that we have been working on for a while....
One of the biggest con jobs in U.S. political history was pulled on American conservatives over the past decade, and most of them still don't even realize it. For two elections, and for over 8 years, George and Laura Bush portrayed themselves as true conservatives who were willing to fight for Christian values. Well, it turns out that the Bushes were never "conservative" at all. In fact, in public statement after public statement they have denied the very basics of the Christian faith. For example, during a recent interview with Larry King, former first lady Laura Bush revealed that she is actually in favor of legalized gay marriage and a woman's "right" to abortion.
This is a woman that conservative women all over the country have looked up to and have endlessly praised.
So what are they supposed to think now?
The truth is that Christians and conservatives collectively spent millions of hours working to get the Bushs into the White House under the assumption that they were conservative Christians.
But Laura Bush sounded very much like Hillary Clinton during this interview with Larry King....
What is that quote that George W. Bush gets criticized for so much? Something about not getting fooled again?....
There's an old saying in Tennessee - I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee - that says, fool me once, shame on - shame on you. Fool me - you can't get fooled again.
Well, it turns out that the Bushs fooled us over and over and over and over.
But sadly, the truth is that the signs were there all along, but conservatives and Christians did not want to see them....
*George W. Bush was a member of the Satanic Skull & Bones Society:
The reality is that in his interviews with the press, George W. Bush was very open about the fact that he does not believe what Christians believe.
In one absolutely stunning interview near the end of his second term, George W. Bush actually said that the Bible is "probably not" literally true, that he prays to the same God that other major religions such as Islam do and that he believes in the scientific evidence for Darwinism.
This is his exact quote when he was asked if he believed that the Bible was literally true....
"Probably not. No, I'm not a literalist, but I think you can learn a lot from it."
The cold, hard reality is that George W. Bush has never embraced evangelical Christianity.
For example, George W. Bush publicly said many times that Christians, Muslims and all other religions pray to the exact same God. In fact, Bush says that he prays to the God of Islam, that non-Christians and Muslims will go to heaven and that he has "nothing but praise" for Islam.
You don't believe this?
Check this out.
The following a portion of a transcript of an interview during which Charles Gibson of ABC asked George W. Bush his thoughts about religion.....
CHARLES GIBSON: Do we all worship the same God, Christian and Muslim?
PRESIDENT BUSH: I think we do.
CHARLES GIBSON: Does ...
PRESIDENT BUSH: We have different routes of getting to the Almighty.
(Later in the interview.....)
CHARLES GIBSON: Do Christians and non-Christians and Muslims go to heaven in your mind?
PRESIDENT BUSH: Yes, they do. We have different routes of getting there.
But it wasn't just during the Charles Gibson interview that George W. Bush declared himself to be a universalist.....
In a shocking interview with Al Arabiya television, Bush said the following....
"I believe in an almighty God, and I believe that all the world, whether they be Muslim, Christian, or any other religion, prays to the same God."
During that same interview Bush also said this....
"I believe there is a universal God. I believe the God that the Muslim prays to is the same God that I pray to. After all, we all came from Abraham. I believe in that universality."
"I want you to convey this message to Mr. Sistani. Tell him that I pray to the same god he prays to... Tell Sistani I have nothing but praise for your religion."
Now does any of that sound "Christian" to you?
According to George W. Bush, Jesus must have been mistaken in John 14:6 when He said this.....
"I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."
How in the world can anyone continue to claim that the Bushs are conservatives or that they are evangelical Christians?
The truth is that they never have been.
It is time for conservatives to face up to the truth....
Have video games gone too far? A PC game out of Japan that allows gamers to gang rape women inside the video game and then force them to have an abortion has been banned from Amazon.com.
The game is called Rapelay, and in the game players are directed to sexually assault a mother and her two young daughters in an underground station. There is also an option for several players to gang up and perform a gang rape.
At one point in the game, the gamer is directed to force the woman who was raped to have an abortion. If the woman is allowed to give birth in the game, the woman throws the gamer's character under a train.
Originally, the game was only supposed to be released in Japan, but ended up being offered to consumers in the U.K. through Amazon Marketplace, but the game has now been banned and is no longer available.
But this incident really begs the question of how far is too far when it comes to sex and violence in these games.
The majority of all video games are marketed at teens and young adults.
They end up absorbing these scenes for hour after hour, and the sad reality is that what a person thinks about constantly is eventually what they start to become.
That is why we would be wise to heed the advice of Philippians 4:8.....
Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.
What do you think about this debate? Feel free to leave a comment.....
NBC has no problem showing racy and "edgy" ads during the Super Bowl, but they are willing to throw money away by refusing a pro-life ad that would be shown to approximately 100 million viewers during the biggest game of the year.
The ad, sponsored by a Catholic group, begins by showing a small fetus in a mother's womb as the following words appear:
"This child's future is a broken home."
"He will be abandoned by his father."
"His single mother will struggle to raise him."
"Despite the hardships he will endure this child will become the 1st African-American President."
At the end of the television spot there is a photo of Barack Obama and these words:
"Life: Imagine the Potential."
This is the first release of a national media campaign, and the executive director of catholicvote.org told PRNewswire that all the ads in the campaign will use that tag line. "Our message is simple: Abortion is the enemy of hope. The purpose of our new ad is to spread a message of hope about the potential of every human life."
The truth is that since 1973, well over 40 MILLION innocent babies have been chopped up and slaughtered in American abortion mills.
America has dissected them, burned them alive, sucked their brains out and yet the American people seem to care less about this than ever.
How far down the toilet has America gone as a society when America kills about a million babies a year, and nobody even gets upset about it anymore?
Since NBC will not show this video, we will be glad to air this video on our website.....
Some of the shows that the study asked teenagers about include "Sex and the City", "That '70s Show" and "Friends".
The study, published in "Pediatrics", is based on interviews with teens over a three year period.
WebMD is reporting that according to the study, teens who watched the most sexual content (90th percentile) on television were twice as likely to experience a pregnancy in the three year period as those who watched the least sexual content (10th percentile).
The researchers said this about their findings: "Given the high rates of teen pregnancy in the United States, our findings argue for continued evaluation of television's role in teen pregnancy and for prevention strategies that factor in the role of portrayals of sexuality on television and in other media."
But seriously.....will watching television and movies with highly sexual content really lead to more teenagers having sex?
Can't our teens distinguish between fantasy and reality?
Or does fantasy become reality when our teens start to imitate their heroes?
Proverbs 23:7 says this about mankind - "For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he".
So according to the Scriptures, what we constantly think about is what we are likely to become.
If our thoughts are filled with sex and sexual things, then we are inevitably going to drift towards those things.
Instead of filling our minds with programs that discuss never ending sexual immorality, the Bible tells us to think about those things that are good and pure. This is what the Scriptures say in Philippians 4:8 -
Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.
So instead of letting our teenagers watch thousands of hours of primetime television and R rated movies, perhaps we should be seeking to help them fill their minds with more positive things.
But I am certain many readers of this blog will disagree with us.
If you do disagree, please feel free to leave a comment explaining why.
A new McCain radio ad that openly discusses his support of embryonic stem cell research is outraging many conservatives. After winning many conservatives over with his selection of Sarah Palin as a running mate (even though McCain had given strong consideration to pro-choice possibilities such as Joe Lieberman and Tom Ridge), now McCain risks alienating many of those same conservatives once again.
In the controversial McCain radio ad, a narrator states, "Stem cell research, to unlock the mystery of cancer, diabetes, heart disease. Stem cell research to help free families from the fear and devastation of illness. Stem cell research to help doctors repair spinal cord damage, knee injuries, serious burns. Stem cell research to help stroke victims."
Alta Charo, a professor of law and bioethics at the University of Wisconsin, says that the ad was “designed to confuse voters,” according to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
The controversial ad is airing in that states of Colorado, Florida, Michigan, Nevada, New Mexico, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.
Both liberals and conservatives are upset that McCain seems to want to eat his cake and have it too. On the one hand, McCain insists he is "pro-life" and courts the support of that community, but on the other hand, McCain insists he is in favor of embryonic stem cell research and he openly hints that he would never push for Roe v. Wade to be overturned.
All of this comes at a time when the election seems to be slipping away from McCain, and when many people are starting to see him as a person who would say just about anything to get elected.
Electoral-vote.com has McCain down by 34 electoral votes, and each day the polls look a little worse for him. Perhaps McCain's best chance to get elected is to desperately pander to the middle.
But when this election is over, will McCain have any dignity left?
Clay Aiken has publicly announced in People magazine that not only is he a single father, but he is also gay.
For a long time it has been rumored that Clay Aiken was gay, but this is the first time that Aiken has publicly confirmed this.
"It was the first decision I made as a father," Aiken told People magazine, "I cannot raise a child to lie or to hide things. I wasn't raised that way, and I'm not going to raise a child to do that."
What do you all of you think about this situation? Feel free to leave a comment, and please spread the word about this blog to everyone that you know.
Among those interviewed by Maher in the film is a man playing Jesus at a Holy Land theme park in Orlando, Muslims at a gay bar in Amsterdam, and Jose Luis de Jesus Miranda, a Puerto Rican man who refers to himself both as “the Second Coming of Jesus” and “the Antichrist.”
Maher is very open with the fact that the purpose of the film is to mock religion, and Maher admits that the film will offend “any religious person.”
It seems as though every day there is just stunning news about the collapse of morality in America. We need to pray for the people of this nation while there is still time.
Hollywood seems to have a lot more to say during this political season than usual.
The latest actor to go public is Matt Damon.
Matt Damon apparently thinks that the prospect of Sarah Palin becoming vice president is some kind of sick joke and that the thought of her being president some day is like a plot out of "a really bad Disney movie":
*Warning* Please do not let anyone under 18 watch this video below.
I thought twice about posting it at all.
But I was truly stunned by what was in this video, and I thought that you all should see what is going on.
In the video, the female pop star sings about how she has a boyfriend, but she kissed a girl "just to try it".
Let's see.....half the country seems to be furious that a certain vice presidential candidate "believes the Bible", but nobody is protesting over videos like this. Does that seem right to you?:
Why does the media and the liberal establishment seem to hate Sarah Palin so much?
Over this past week there has been an attack of unprecedented magnitude on John McCain's choice for vice president.
So why have the attacks been so vicious?
Is it because she is a woman?
Is it because she has little experience?
No.
It is actually rather simple why they hate her so much.
They hate her because she is a Christian.
The media and the liberal establishment have a strong dislike for true Christianity, and they ESPECIALLY hate politicians who believe in Jesus Christ and who try to follow the Scriptures.
They don't like that Sarah Palin is a mother of five, and that she values her role as a mother above her career. For liberals, being a wife and a mother are roles to be looked down on compared to having a "career".
They don't like that Sarah Palin kept her second son, Trig Paxson Van Palin, who has Down syndrome. Liberals don't understand why anyone would keep a "disabled" baby. To them it makes much more sense to dispose of it.
They don't like how Sarah Palin is handling the pregnancy of her teen daughter, Bristol Palin. Liberals don't understand why Bristol doesn't just kill her unborn child through abortion.
The truth is that Sarah Palin is the first "real" pro-life candidate that the Republicans have had on a national ticket in over 20 years, and liberals are in a rage over that. Instead of just paying lip service to the pro-life community, Palin would actually DO something about it. This has the liberal crowd freaking out, and they are obsessed with keeping her out of Washington.
Another thing that drives liberals crazy is that Sarah Palin believes that Intelligent Design should be taught alongside the theory of evolution in schools. Considering the fact that the theory of evolution is on incredibly shaky ground and that all the scientific evidence points towards Intelligent Design, you would think that it would not be an unreasonable position to want all theories about our origins to be taught in schools.
However, if you don't believe 100 percent in evolution, then to liberals that is enough to brand a person as a lunatic.
Then there is the matter of sex education. If you aren't willing to teach 5 year old children how to put on a condom, then to liberals YOU are the devil. The liberal establishment absolutely HATE that Sarah Palin believes that people should be taught to wait for sex just like the Bible says.
And the fact that Palin attended a pentecostal church when she was younger is really bugging liberals. Liberals don't like Christians in general, but they REALLY don't like spirit-filled Christians.
You see, bigotry exists in America and it is tolerated openly. Bigotry towards Christians in television, movies, education and the media is accepted as perfectly normal in society today, and it is growing with each passing year. Somehow it has gotten to the point in our society where it is okay to call Christians every name in the book.
The fact that Palin believes that God really exists and that God can guide her in making decisions makes them furious. For liberals, there is no room for someone to ask that the "will of God" be done in a government decision.
For liberals, there is no room for someone to pray in the name of Jesus either. You will notice that the name of Jesus is conspicuously absent from the convention prayers of both parties.
So that is why the media and the liberal establishment hate Sarah Palin.
A new law in Colorado that prohibits discrimination against homosexuals has been written so vaguely and so broadly that many Christian legal experts are warning that it would easily be used to ban the Bible in that state.
"Section 8 of Senate Bill 200 is a wide open door for any judge to censor anything that condemns homosexuality, including Scripture," Rep. Kevin Lundberg said at a news conference.
Steve Crampton, general counsel of Liberty Counsel, was even more bold in his assessment: "I do believe that the Bible is banned, under the plain language of this new statute."

Have you ever considered if modern music is having an incredibly destructive impact on the young people of the United States?
David Bowie said in Rolling Stone magazine (Feb. 12, 1976):
"Rock has always been THE DEVIL'S MUSIC . . . I believe rock and roll is dangerous . . . I feel we're only heralding SOMETHING EVEN DARKER THAN OURSELVES."
Do you ever wonder why all forms of violent crime, sexual sin, and drug use have skyrocketed in the United States since the 50s?
In the disturbing song "The Conjuring" by Megadeth, the true mission of rock music is clearly revealed:
"I AM THE DEVIL'S ADVOCATE A SALESMAN, if you will . . . Come join me in my INFERNAL DEPTHS . . . I've got your soul!"
Do you ever wonder if rock music has anything to do with the explosive popularity of witchcraft, the occult and Satanism in America?
Rocker Frank Zappa once proudly boasted:
"I'm the devil's advocate. We have our own worshippers who are called 'groupies.' Girls will give their bodies to musicians as you would give a sacrifice to a god." (Peters Brothers, What About Christian Rock, p. 17)
Do you ever think twice about the music you are listening to? Do you ever pay attention to the messages that are being pumped into your brain?
In the incredibly disgusting song, "The Prince", the rock group Metallica proclaims:
"Angel from below . . . I WISH TO SELL MY SOUL . . . DEVIL TAKE MY SOUL with diamonds you repay I don't care for heaven so don't you look for me to cry AND I WILL BURN IN HELL from the day I die."
Rocker Marilyn Manson is very clear about what his mission is:
"Hopefully, I’ll be remembered as the person who brought an end to Christianity." (Spin, August 1996, p. 34)
The group Bow Wow Wow, in their sick song "Prince of Darkness", openly give an "invitation" to receive Satan:
"So open the door and LET SATAN IN, The Prince of Darkness."
Don't you think it is time for you to be aware of what you are listening to?
The rock group Black Sabbath have actually given invitations during their concerts for people to receive Satan into their lives. One of their albums is even titled "We Sold Our Soul for Rock'n Roll". Their song N.I.B. (Nativity In Black) is in reality a love song from Lucifer, in which Lucifer invites people to "please take my hand":
"Some people say MY LOVE cannot be true Please believe me, MY LOVE, and I'll show you I will give you those things you thought unreal . . . YOUR LOVE FOR ME has just got to be real . . . Look into my eyes, you will see who I am MY NAME IS LUCIFER, PLEASE TAKE MY HAND!"
Posted below is a series of four videos that will challenge everything that you believe about rock music.
It is absolutely the hardest hitting documentary series on the true nature of Rock Music, Pop Music, and Country Music we have ever seen! Pastor Schimmel was a minor rock star who had visions of future riches and glory in his head before Jesus Christ got hold of his heart. These videos takes you backstage, showing the true nature and of rockstars from the 1950's through today. In these videos you will see shocking video of Elvis, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Black Sabbath, AC/DC and Madonna. Even Britney Spears, 'N SYNC, Ricky Martin, Garth Brooks, and Eminem are included, just to mention a few. If you are fighting with your children or your grandchildren about Rock Music, these videos will give you the ammunition that you need to convince your loved ones of the Satanic nature of Rock Music. You will also see how seductive rock music is, and how much of modern music is preparing the masses of youngsters to be the future army of the antichrist.
After watching the videos below, hopefully you all will be much more aware of the source, agenda and message of much of today's music and you will be much more hesitant to pump endless hours of it directly into your brain.
*Warning* -- The videos linked to below are extremely graphic and show very clearly the link between rock music and the occult. They are most definitely not meant to be watched by young children.
Our challenge to you is to watch at least one part of this four part series and then to come back here to this blog and defend the artists and the music talked about in the presentation.
The good news in all of this is that you CAN be set free from these demonic influences. The good news is that the Lord Jesus Christ is more powerful than all of the powers of darkness, and if you will repent and invite Jesus Christ into your life you will receive eternal life and will have all of your sins forgiven. You can find a more detailed information on what it means to be a Christian at the following site:
America has turned against God and every day there are more stories in the news that illustrate this sad reality. Thank you for visiting and please help us get the word out about this blog.
