Last year I wrote about the country we live in, and this is really an extension of that same blog, because the more I look at this the more disheartened I get, no not to the extent of suicidal tendencies, but I can relate to those who have.
The lack of moral absolutes in today’s morally and ethically declining society is so abundant that we just simply take it for granted, it is widely known that the media of late are extremely liberal with their reporting hence I am not watching anymore, however, the churches are not avoiding my crosshairs on this one either, so you have been warned in advance.
Here in Southwest Missouri we have a number of “larger” churches that in my opinion are nothing more than a feel good sausage machine, yes I said it, what I mean by this is ‘bring them on in, make them feel good by entertaining them for a short while and send them back out’ without any challenges of conviction whatsoever, basically the moral and spiritual conviction of sponge!!
Its about time more churches started really challenging people with their convictions instead of being more interested in more numbers than their neighboring church, So with this being said coupled with the media being completely abhorrent in their oh so wonderful reporting and manipulating the general public is it any wonder we have incompetents and out of touch people running the country now?
I do have respect for the office that is in charge now, I will state that for the record before any liberal waste of DNA tries to quote it ‘out of context’ but I cannot stand the man that is in there, my observation, he has done more damage in 98 days than Hitler and Stalin combined did in years!!
This one big asinine mistake America has made will be remembered for many a year, just unfortunately for all the wrong reasons. I love where I live and I hope you do, because if you do if you truly do then do something, like call your Congressman and/or Senator let them know you want to see some moral absolutes.

I have to agree with your observations. I found that many churches are just teaching feel good philosophies and are not truly helping people improve their lives or try to do more to improve themselves. A moral compass is very important in a free society. The founders felt that they had to have a moral a religious people to be able to even declare independence, and so the people worked at making sure they were virtuous and pure. There is Natural Law, and even though people may try to ignore it, they will still have the consequences of breaking it. And in this case it is a deteriorating society and loss of liberty.
Great heart, great looks and a great mind, the total package going on here.
Great job, and you're absolutely right, there is too much "feel good" in some places and not enough in others. On the other hand there is too much negativity in the media and not enough in others.
Keep up the great work.

In R12 Springfield School district it seems that most teachers are christians. Though these shepards can't preach during classroom time outright to student they do foster Christ-like examples to many others. Socially, if christians are the saving grace, which I believe they are, we are in places that are highly influencial to those, who are affected by the socially declining morales of their parents. Where sin abounds, grace abounds more abundantly is the thought that is provoked when I see our moral compass heading south.
