The moral change in our country has been seismic and systematic. It is truly a paradigm shift.
The British theologian Theo Hobson says there are three elements to a moral revolution. *What was condemned must now be celebrated. *What was celebrated must now be condemned. *Those who will not celebrate must now be condemned.
Insert any of the LGBTQ+ categories, as well as abortion and physician-assisted suicide, and you can see the trajectory we are on. Where we are in Hobson’s order of events, you must decide. However, with the recent election results, moral deterioration, and denigration could increase.
The sad observation is that many on the Christian left agree with this agenda. Many who are of the Christian right and voted for this (or those who did not vote) will discover soon that they did not realize what would happen.
And that reminds me of what José Ortega y Gasset tells us; “We do not know what is happening to us. And that is what is happening to us. Not to know what is happening to us.”
Serving Him with you Until He comes for us, Fred
