Great Society Begets Bad Society

Submitted by Bob, May 4, 2007 06:27

Mr. McWhorter is trying to give all of us a perspective on this issue and I take my hat off to him. But from reading his article and the responses that were made to it have missed the heart of this subject. As someone loves to look at issues like a rubics cube, I asked myself where and what is the beginning and honestly it was found and bound in our Lord's handbook 'The Bible'. Moses had the same behavior going on with the people he was to free from bondage as these teens or the 'ghetto culture. Just rest asure that what we are experiencing today is exactly what happened in ancient times. It has only speeded up by gadgets that have been invented and boast about instead of giving all the credit to our Heavenly Father. We all must be seekers of the 'TRUE REALITY' before even trying to solve whatever may ail us or others. Slow down and peel away the onion of his WORD. Good Hunting
