The Hijacking of Morality

THE HIJACKING OF MORALITY

  • The loss of our moral compass.
  • Trusting in man to know what is best for man.
  • The Church that did not put Christ first.
  • The silent Church became the absent Church.
  • Allowing school influence to take the place of the parental influence.
  • Fathers with attitudes of complacency and apathy.
  • Fathers abandoning fatherhood and leadership in the homes.
  • Mothers abandoning motherhood and nurturing in the homes.
  • Grandparents who quit supporting their future lineage opting to be anthropocentric while investing in their personal happiness instead of the personal safety and protection of their next generation.
  • “Everyone did what was right in their own eyes”.
  • Paralyzed by fear of public scorn instead of speak out against evil.
  • “Situation Ethics” became the new “grey” and black and white gave way to color blindness.
  • Spiritual numbness replaced spiritual passion.
  • We turned a blind eye to evil in all forms.
  • Mentors stopped mentoring.
  • Accepting of substitutionary mediocrity.
  • Objectification of our daughters and our wives.
  • What was done in the dark and “secret places” are now being done in the light and full view of all.
  • Righteousness, godliness, cleanliness, trustworthy, honesty, integrity are no longer virtues to be pursued but are now labels of prudishness, intolerance and condemned as judgmental arrogance.
  • Bad company has spoiled good character.
  • Obscenity laws are no longer enforced and thus porn has become a “don’t touch because no one is being hurt” billion dollar out of control monstrosity!
  • We looked the other way instead of saying “NO”!!

…..we still say “no” (to getting involved) and do “no-thing” because we are fearful of rejection, reprisal, and reprehensible shame.

It’s time to say as Todd Beamer said: “let’s roll”!!! We need to get up, and take back the plane of morality that needs to fly over this land flowing with milk and honey!!
