Donovan,

 

Yes, I don't disagree with you.  However, we can still make comparisons
between different times in the history of the world and also between
different people groups living at the same time.  The Apostle Paul did just
this in his letter to Titus, describing the Cretans as generally lazy
brutes.  There is such a thing as cultural and moral decline, even in a
pre-glorified fallen world.

 

thanks,

Micheal,

"The land was not as filled with idolatry, hatred, bitterness, disloyalty,
adultery, infidelity, dishonor, laziness, paganism, immorality, relativism,
general cultural breakdown, statism, impiety, and just about any cultural
non-good the western world spent 1500 years enumerating."

Sorry but you will find the overwhelming majority of historians will
disagree with this statement. These things have been in full force in every
human civilization since recorded history, and probably before. 

The only place where these things to do plague human society is in Heaven.

"idolatry, hatred, bitterness, disloyalty, adultery, infidelity, dishonor,
laziness, paganism, immorality, relativism, general cultural breakdown,
statism, impiety, and just about any c! ultural non-good" was not invented
in the last 150 years in the United States. 

If you ever talk to people that are 90+ years of age they will tell you that
some things have gotten better, and some things have not, but for the most
part, things are better.

Take Care,

Donovan J Arnold
