What America really needs – and it’s not just politics

America has forgotten its Constitution.

It has turned it back on the education of its children.

It has rejected its heritage, its history.

It has thrown decency and the rule of law out the window.

It has failed to recognize the principles upon which it was founded.

But most of all, it has squandered its blessings from God.

What came first? Slowly but surely, America did all this simultaneously – over time. It was a steady progression as people gradually lost their way. We didn’t even know what was happening.

What was the most obvious sign and trigger?

Someone once asked Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, the Russian novelist, what turned the Soviet Union into the standard bearer of Communism. Without hesitating, he said, “We forget about God.” When that happens, failure is inevitable. It’s very tough to reverse the process.

When, in America, did we forget about God? I would say it came around the time of two Supreme Court decisions in 1962 and 1963 overruling prayer in schools. One day we prayed in school. The next day we didn’t. It had a ripple effect. The president was assassinated in the streets of Dallas. Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated too. Bobby Kennedy also. It was a horrendous time in America. All hell was breaking loose – literally.

As a new feature film recalls, a “Jesus Revolution” changed America’s trajectory temporarily in the 1970s. The blessing of the most popular president followed, from 1981 to 1989. It was morning in America, again. But it didn’t last long. Then the people had another standard-bearer in 2016. America had backslid long enough. Surprise! Donald Trump gave America hope again, but the celebration was short-lived. Man intervened, and the next election was obviously stolen, and the China virus hit. It was a double whammy.

  1. Dumb. The whole point of America was NOT to have a government God. We were objecting to the Church of England that required everyone to share the same faith. Instead, we were to allow whatever God each citizen might worship, or no God at all. It’s not a country free of God. It’s a country free for each person’s God. Whether Christian, Jew, Muslim, etc., or atheist, America is here to allow for the freedom for you to follow your chosen faith so long as we all abide by the civil/secular law. Separation of church and state. Remember? Not imposing a government religion doesn’t mean forbidding religion. It just means allowing the free exercise of all religion, or no religion at all.

  2. America not only has turned her back on GOD, but she has lost the ability to repent. America CANNOT repent of her sins now. People do not believe in repentance or redemption anymore. Destruction is what she deserves. Only though massive suffering will people see the need to return to God. Look at the jews in Babylon. America has become Babylon. It will and must be stopped. All we are is porn and drugs- nothing more. No great art is made here. No manufacturing. No more great ideas. All we are is a net exporter of filth culture to the rest of the world. It cannot and will not ever stop.
