A Polarized Nation

A Polarized Nation

My parents, in their 80's, are from a generation where our country was a galvanized nation. Where the majority of citizens had similar core moral values based upon their belief in the Bible and upbringing. A generation that was concerned for their neighbor's well being and wouldn't dream of presuming upon anyone. They worked hard and had little time to protest about anything. Children, for the most part, were well behaved or could be controlled very easy with a stern look from a teacher. Fast forward to 2005. We now are looking at a generation that is more polarized than ever. We are beginning to resemble ancient Rome at the precipice of their demise. A generation that is self serving and whine at everything, protesting anything and everything. That presumes upon everyone. A generation that has removed itself from the well grounded beliefs of their predecessors only to be enchanted by every false doctrine that blows past them leaving them running in all directions with no specific purpose. We are self destructing with no clear vision. If we are to survive as a nation, we must become galvanized once again with leaders who have biblically centered convictions upon which we were founded.
