For a different perspective on our country's moral decline, please check this out;

The United States has displayed a remarkable and long-standing tendency not only to tolerate, but to honor and reward, those who decry the nation’s morality and predict its imminent and inevitable doom.

Yes, sad and true. Sad and true because it IS an obvious fact. I had never thought that I would live to see this day coming upon the earth. I had hoped I would have died before I would live to see this.

John MacArthur excerpt from OP link....

Buchanan hardly stands alone in announcing the upcoming destruction or dissolution of the republic. John F. MacArthur, the influential California pastor, President of The Master’s College, and author of some fifty books on the Bible and contemporary life, recently declared: “There comes a point in God’s dealing with men and nations, groups of people, when He abandons them….Sin is so rampant in our country, it is so widespread, it is so tolerated by people in leadership and even people in the church, it is so widely tolerated it is pandemic: it is endemic; that is, it is in the very fabric of our life that I believe God has just taken away the restraining grace that might preserve our nation, and has let our nation run to its own doom.”

I rarely have nything on my TV other than listen to the news, but last night I switched the channel for some "light" entertainment and came across some "cartoon" type show and I can't repeat here what was being said by the dad to the father while sitting around the "family" dinner table! I was flabbergasted...I know things have gotten bad, but it was like having cold water thrown in my face.
