A Weak and Crumbling Foundation

Then what do we do when we see even our most important leaders functioning as if there is no moral code? What do we think when the people we see as special turn out to be sexual predators? How are we to understand our misery when our children OD on opioids, kill themselves over Facebook bullying, or kill others just because they are angry or want to be famous? How do we handle it when we pray to the God we no longer believe in and get no response at all?

Ban guns! It takes no moral courage to blame a thing, but it takes massive internal fortitude to look in the mirror and blame the unsustainable ideas that we've held dear now for several generations.

No. We scream, "Ban guns!" Maybe if we scream it loudly enough the guilt will go away.

The screamers don't follow up their hollering with careful thinking about what taking guns out of our society would look like.

The confiscation of guns in America will be a bloodbath that makes Parkland look insignificant.

Will Congress take a fresh look at how welfare policies affect family structure? Not likely, and if they did, where would we find the strong, stalwart men to step up and become great fathers? We are training our young men to be women, so how is that going to work? Are we likely, as an entire culture, to realize that law and a godless moral code can't protect us from evil? It's easier to ban guns, or at least to vociferously demand that; I'm not sure the reality really matters to the screamers.

Truth is under attack today, but it is still readily available; if we want truth, we can still get it, though it wouldn't be surprising to find that after they ban guns, the Bible will be next.
