Train Speeding into Regression

1950's America. Folk have stated they long for it. It was the happiest time for them. 

What was it like for all Americans in the '50s? Does that really matter? For some, the answer is a resounding, NO.

Folk incorrectly use the word fascist when describing opposing political parties. Yet, they're ecstatic when true fascist behavior is displayed, labeling it patriotism.

Relationships have been destroyed because of almost worshipful loyalty to a man...a MAN who doesn't even know they're breathing. Yes, it happened in the Church, too.

What is it going to take to wake folk up out of the almost cultic stupor into which they seem to have fallen? Being personally impacted by the backward movement of our country? 

For instance, interracial marriage was illegal in some states in the 1950s. A Supreme Court Justice is ready to challenge a law whose foundation is the law that legalized interracial marriage.  Would it stop there? What would happen to the foundational law? Now, for some, this would be counted a good thing and would be praised as "God at work". Even though there are a lot of interracial marriages among church folk, some Christians actually believe the Bible forbids interracial marriage. 

It's a very scary world.  Right is castigated as wrong and wrong is praised as right.  What's even scarier is this world has been here before--on this slippery slide into regression.  The end result was atrocious.  

Imagine how awful it would be if it had been forbidden to teach about the atrocities that occurred back then in our schools. History would be throughly white-washed and we'd have no yardstick to measure and check recurring like behaviors.

Forget denominations, loyalty to man--clay, religious sects, and politics. We had better be sure and very sure our foundation is anchored in Christ and His Word.
