Liberal attitudes regarding abortion, gay rights and prayer in school, to name a few, appease the masses. It is far more popular, and easier, to “go with the flow” and not “rock the boat.” Today, our modern society is rapidly becoming amoral.
Historically, any civilization that would seek to eliminate God and his word progressively renders itself incapable of distinguishing between good and evil. Homosexuality, for example, is now often merely perceived as an alternate lifestyle, rather than a perversion of God’s natural design.
