As I said, I am old now. When I look out my proverbial, window onto the world, I see nothing quite the same as it was. Having said that, I understand that this is probably what every old man or woman has said since Rome was a glint in Caligula’s eye. Speaking of Caligula, one of the most perverted of Roman Emperors, our world has turned to the perverse in leaps and bounds since I was a teen in the 1960s.
Birth control came to be in those days followed immediately by, “Free Love.” Rock and roll was already starting to mature and drugs for the common man were in vogue virtually everywhere. Sex was what dating had become whereas just ten years earlier it was merely getting to know the person you were out with or, put another way, to see if true love was possible.
Supersonic was new and that word took over the progress of the inevitable downhill plunge away from Christian morality and values. The very definition of “love” changed to sex. Las Vegas was nicknamed, “Sin City.” Rather a disquieting moniker for a city making a living on gambling and sex. Oh well, it is what it were. Was. Should never have been. Your choice.
I write of this today as it is the foundation for the disquiet we see today. When morality crashes there is no good to come from that crash. It is a head-on collision at great speed with fate. A fate I saw coming but only as I aged. at that time I thought it was great. Then I picked up reading the bible again and saw in prophecy where all of this immoral attitude placed this world of ours. It put us squarely in today.
Take a look around after you read this. Watch the news and keep this in mind. If it doesn’t open your eyes then they are glued shut. That only means that I need to write more convincingly, and I will.
