“Right now there is a tremendous amount of debate about what values our society should embrace. The truth is that we should return to the values that made western society great in the first place. The values that I am talking about are the values that we find in the Bible. The Bible also places a very high value on family. In the Ten Commandments we are told to honor our fathers and our mothers, and throughout the rest of the Torah we are given very specific instructions about how families are to operate.

Today, much of the population has rejected the Bible and the traditional family unit is relentlessly mocked.

The Automatic Consequences:

• Divorce rates have soared
• Birth rates have fallen to historic lows
• Suicide rates are at all-time record highs
• Alcohol and drug abuse is out of control
• Sex outside of marriage is rampant
• And the streets of our major cities are filled with violence!

Study after study has shown that kids that come from broken homes are far more likely to commit violent crimes, they are far more likely to get involved with drugs, and they are far more likely to end up impoverished.

In ancient times, child sacrifice was one of the most common ways to get rid of unwanted children. When it was time to make a sacrifice to ‘the gods’, children that were not wanted were brought and put on the altar. The same thing is essentially happening today, but we give it a different name. We call it ‘abortion’, and it is done behind closed doors in pristine clinical settings. Since 1973, more than 1.5 billion children have been slaughtered worldwide. So what makes us any better than any of the ancient civilizations that regularly sacrificed their unwanted children?

The Bible very strongly denounces child sacrifice, and it also very strongly denounces the various forms of sexual immorality that are exploding in our society today. For decades, the left has been pushing us to accept one form of sexual perversion after another.

But God has not changed.

He sees everything that is going on, and He has warned us over and over again to change course. If we choose to keep going down this path, we will be cursed and THE CONSEQUENCES WILL BE EXTREMELY BITTER.” (themostimportantnews.com)

“Children need the best start in life - and the authors of a new report warn too many young people face a mental health crisis. Britain is a ‘global leader in family breakdown’ with devastating consequences for mental health, a leading think tank has warned. Young people whose families break-up before they reach the age of 18 are nearly twice as likely to suffer from mental ill-health, according to the Centre for Social Justice. It argues that securing ‘stronger families’ is key to improving mental health across the nation. Researchers are alarmed that ‘a fifth of children aged eight to 16 have a probable mental health disorder, up from 12.5% in 2017.’” (express.co.uk)

“America is waking up. After years of being told that gender is fluid, that chromosomes are incidental, and that masculinity is toxic or obsolete, America is rediscovering a truth our culture worked hard to bury: The Y matters. The crisis began the moment the ‘Y’ was dismissed. Influential voices turned identity into a DIY project, erased the Y chromosome as a marker of manhood, blurred essential boundaries, and loosened every anchor that once helped boys grow. Time-tested anchors of family, faith, community, mentors, and clear expectations were discarded.

In the name of compassion, boys were told that male and female were interchangeable, that fathers were optional, and that masculinity was either threatening or foolish. We’re now living with the consequences: Boys are faltering, and a generation is stalling on the road to manhood.

What we’ve offered boys is not freedom, but confusion. Confusion is crippling. It produces faltering boys instead of faithful men. A nervous system without clarity is a nervous system in distress. That’s not ideology. That’s neuroscience. More boys now have smartphones than fathers in the home, and young men are being shaped more by algorithms than by actual men. The problem has never been the presence of masculinity. It’s the absence of it.” (dailysignal.com)

“We can see it everywhere - from the recent looting by hordes of teenagers, to the explosion in welfare dependency, to the tide of small-boat arrivals that mock our border controls on a daily basis. They’re all symptoms of the same disease: the collapse of consequences in British life.

All of us were shocked by the phone footage of children smashing up shops in broad daylight, stealing, laughing, filming themselves as though it were a game.

Some commentators immediately reached for a racial explanation, but that was to miss the point completely. While the majority of young looters in Clapham, South London, seemed to have Caribbean or African heritage, the fact is that children in Lagos and Nairobi do not behave that way.

WHY? Because in Nigeria and Kenya the boundaries are clear and actions have consequences. Parents, communities and authorities do not wring their hands or look the other way. It’s a lesson we’ve forgotten here.” (dailymail.co.uk)

“I am increasingly concerned about the scale and nature of the violence on our TV screens – even the Christmas viewing didn’t provide respite. I was shocked at the levels of murders and deaths, whether real-life crime, crime series or films, and how much of the violence depicted was sadistic and gratuitous. And it’s not just TV: video games and social media are pumping this violence out too.

It is ironic that on one hand we have become so sensitive that police are investigating non-crime hate incidents and people are being disciplined for using the wrong pronouns, while on the other, an extraordinary amount of violence can be pumped out daily on every media outlet and very few steps are taken to curtail it.” (express.co.uk)

“The unity of the Church of England has been dealt a major blow to the denomination in a punishing reminder that theological treason has consequences, after a group representing nearly 40 million members — ten times the number of Anglicans in the UK — announced they are the real Anglican Communion and will no longer be in communion with their progressive counterpart, dividing the denomination in two while declaring ‘We cannot continue to have communion with those who advocate the revisionist agenda, which has abandoned the inerrant word of God as the final authority.’

Over the past two decades, the denomination has been liberalizing at a rapid rate, recently appointing Sarah Mullally, a pro-choice feminist as the new Archbishop of Canterbury and allowing the church to bless same-sex couples, with a major contingent pushing the church to deem homosexuality no longer sinful.” (protestia.com)

“The package of insanity puts Britain in a leading position in a world where nobody is following. Producing only two percent of global emissions and therefore irrelevant to global warming, any measures which cost wealth or economic growth are effectively simply exporting pollution, jobs and wealth to other countries that are not following our agenda. The catalogue of delusion includes removing support from pensioners while generating the highest electricity prices in the world for both consumers and industry with all the consequences of that for the economy and personal wealth and wellbeing.” (express.co.uk)

“Banning the nation’s second-largest political party, the Alternative for Germany (AfD), has become a matter of constant conversation. Yet, a prominent academic has warned that there could be serious consequences for breaking the democratic system. Germany’s AfD was declared a ‘right-wing extremist’ organisation by the outgoing leftist government earlier this year, triggering a legal challenge. Meanwhile, some German states have moved to ban AfD members from serving as police officers or becoming civil servants. Far from being a niche or fringe party, the faction now serves as the official parliamentary opposition and recently polled in first place nationwide. ‘A ban that would eliminate all votes for the AfD and thus lead to [a left-wing] parliamentary majority’ would be a ‘sure path to civil war.’” (breitbart.com)

“These are the visible consequences of a society that refuses to speak plainly about what threatens it. This morning a man shouting ‘Allahu Akbar’ drove a car into a crowd on the French holiday island of Île d’Oléron, leaving at least 10 people injured. It was the latest example of something that has become commonplace across Europe, something that our leaders refuse to deal with. Instead we must learn to live behind barriers, with concrete blocks and assault rifle-toting police becoming a kind of set dressing for leisure. The security is to a certain degree theatre. It’s there to reassure us and it’s better than nothing, but it is also a reminder that things were not always this way and that governments are too ideologically-bound to actually tackle the issue.

Nowhere is that more visible than in Germany, where the tradition of the Christmas market is being quietly dismantled. In several towns and cities they will not go ahead as normal this year. These cancellations are not simply administrative matters. They are the visible consequences of a society that refuses to speak plainly about what threatens it. Islamist terror – or even the fear of it – now impacts the architecture of public life. The markets that survive do so behind ‘controlled zones’: fenced pockets of reassurance in cities that pretend the danger does not exist.

This is how cultures fade – not through sudden collapse, but through small, well-meaning surrenders. Each cancelled market, each renamed festival, each silence accepted for the sake of ‘safety’ is another retreat from the public square. They need not strike again; the mere possibility has achieved their purpose. The attack in France on Sunday showed how fragile the ordinary has become. Germany’s response shows how easily fear can be mistaken for compassion.” (telegraph.co.uk)

“American supremacy is on the line as a historian has issued a dire warning about the impact debt could have on the country. Professor Niall Ferguson has warned the US’s global status would suffer devastating consequences if politicians continue to ignore the country’s worsening debt crisis. Professor Ferguson noted both Joe Biden and Donald Trump have heavily contributed to increasing America’s debt during their presidencies.” (express.co.uk)

“The Federal Reserve has pumped trillions of dollars that were created out of thin air into the financial system since 2008. That has helped the stock market hit record highs, but it has been one of the factors that has made the cost of living unbearable for the rest of us. The very foolish decisions that our leaders have been making have had dramatic consequences.

Previous generations handed us the keys to the greatest economic machine that the world had ever seen. And we went out and wrecked it. 50 years ago, the US economy was so dominant that IT WOULD HAVE TAKEN STUPIDITY ON AN EPIC SCALE TO CAUSE IT TO FAIL. But somehow we managed to do it. US households are piling up tremendous amounts of debt. In fact, US household debt recently hit an all-time record high of 18.59 trillion dollars.” (theeconomiccollapseblog.com)

“In 1958, Mao Zedong decreed that Chinese citizens should destroy the humble sparrow because the birds were eating much-needed grain in a country where hunger was a constant companion. After two years, hundreds of millions of birds were dead as the sparrow approached extinction across China. But destroying the sparrow resulted in one of the most devastating famines in recent history, killing 15-40 million Chinese citizens (the exact number remains subject to debate).

Why? Because it turned out that sparrows didn’t just eat grain. They also ate insects, including locusts with an appetite for crops. With its major predator effectively side-lined, the locust roamed rampant across China.” (jpost.com)
