Does Americans’ faith run only skin-deep?
You may well wonder—as I often do—how we have reached such a low point in our culture. Divorce rates soar. Abortion is not only condoned by society, it’s common. Fewer and fewer children grow up living in the same household with both their mother and father. Marriage dwindles in importance and is at risk of losing its meaning altogether.
The answer I come back to time and again is that as a society we have turned away from God. This is hardly an original thought. Many have decried for years the fact that God is being slowly (or maybe not so slowly) but surely driven from the public square.
We blame the secularists and the cultural elite, the mainstream media and the ACLU. But maybe we have only ourselves to blame.
