Prudence,Pleasure,Power and No Sin?

Psalms 37:35,37 King James Bible
“I have seen the wicked in great power and spreading himself like a green bay tree.”
” Yet he passed away…”
When God is the authority we can expect, no we can demand that government rule within the confines of Scripture and then conduct governmental business within the boundary of the Constitution, the law of the land. But what do we find instead a philosophy of so called prudence with society thinking and living their lives within the dictates of Political Correctness, Progressive thinking, and having one sex scandal after another all the while thinking themselves to be wise.
We have jettisoned God, His Son, along with the 10 commandments and have come to a point were reason is hard to be found. All the while this lack of reason is coupled to society that is doing nothing but seeking pleasure and looking for a hand out. You begin to develop a terrible picture of a society that thinks itself wise all the time inching close to the edge of destruction.
Adding the third ingredient “Power” you have everything one needs to bring down a society from within. Power and the seeking of it, will over ride any good that may try to surface. You need look only as far as the State of New York and its’ former governor to find all these traits, Power, Pleasure—in sex, and a miss conception of one that thinks himself to be Prudent. Thinking himself to be wise, he acted the part of a fool and a hypocrite.
One must ask is sin dead or maybe does anyone think there is anything like sin left in this world? A large percentage seems to think they are OK with not having any sin and/or thinking they are not committing one. Cathy Lynn Grossman attempts to look at the question in her article, “Has the Notion of Sin Been Lost? “USA Today” article: http://www.usatoday.com/news/religion/2008-03-19-sin_N.htm
This all started with taking prayer out of our public schools! Children are being taught by many liberal teachers who are teaching their opinions rather than facts. Evolution is one of them. Objectivity is a thing of the past and anyone who trys to use it is labeled as “wanting everything their way”, or “you are closed-minded”. I hear this all the time. The sad part is, these people don’t even realize or havn’t been taught to realize that they are the ones closed-minded.
The liberal news media and rock music is further destroying our children’s ability to think. Thus, we have generations of people out there who have be brain-washed, de-sensitized and programed to think radically. Accountability for one’s actions is often a thing of the past.
Take care and God bless America
