Liberals Silence Parents, Sacrifice Children at Alter of Tolerance
by Laura Adelmann
The free-love generation that despised social restraint, the forever-reckless crowd that never grew up, is destroying our culture and sacrificing our young on the alter of tolerance.Within 50 years, American culture has degenerated from a nation promoting sound ethics, manners, restraint and self-respect into a culture overrun with tattooed, pierced, drugged-up, sexualized reprobates of every kind. For families in this over-sexed culture, America has become a battlefield, and it is our children on the front lines. They are attacked 24/7 with sex, pornography, violence, drugs, show-it-all fashion glamorized in filthy-language laced gangsta-rap. Impressionable, vulnerable and dependent, they need adults to demand a moral uprising.But where is the justified parental outcry? It has been effectively silenced by politically-correct and morally bankrupt liberals using junior-high tactics like name-calling and labeling to silence opposition. All liberals have had to do is associate upright morals with historical outrages like slavery and racism to inoculate conservatives into utter cultural ineffectiveness.
I have another answer to her rhetorical question.
I'm thinking that so many parents are themselves enablers or participants in the culture of death that of course they won't denounce that culture. Just think of all the men who view porn or all the women who have had abortions. If teens are so messed up, I think one of the big problems is that adults are messed up. We can't expect teens to live upright, godly lives if they see adults don't do it.
