Societies can survive tragedy and economic disaster, but if the family falls apart, societal collapse is inevitable. Such unraveling is now a statistical reality. At its most basic level, the Christian sociological claim is that society functions best when organized around the natural family (father, mother, and children).

The intense blowback against Trump’s efforts to restore law and order rams home the point that it is a deliberate choice by progressives to preserve lawlessness in their cities. When you think about it, the strategy seems to have paid off, if all you care about is power, since progressives have a generational stranglehold on the cities with the worst crime.

In progressive schools today, rarely do children read “chapter books” before junior high or high school, if at all. Mostly they read “readers,” or short booklets written specifically for the classroom by ensconced educators, not recognized authors. These readers offer hollowed-out stories of little artistic value. Recently, many of these stories have been saturated with LGBT and CRT influence. They simplify reading skills to offer a manicured experience that can best be described as tedious. It’s no wonder so few children love to read in our age!

Without God, there could be no American form of Government, nor an American way of life. Recognition of the Supreme Being is the first—the most basic—expression of Americanism. Thus the Founding Fathers saw it, and thus, with God’s help, it will continue to be.

Progressives replaced the old idea of divinely originated virtue with a new ethical system: anything goes between “consenting adults” and “your rights end where my nose begins” In other words, unless you directly hurt someone else, your values are just as valid as anyone else’s. This ethical construct often goes by the pseudonym “tolerance” or post-modernism.

Our children are drowning—emotionally, academically, psychologically. Anxiety, depression, behavioral disorders, identity confusion, self-harm… all skyrocketing. Why?
Because children are being fed a worldview that denies reality, denies purpose, denies identity, denies God, denies design. They are being crushed under academic pressure, medicated into numbness, and handed a worldview that tells them nothing is true and they themselves are malleable clay to be reshaped endlessly into whatever earns approval.
We have replaced education with social engineering.
We have replaced learning with diagnosis.
We have replaced discipline with pharmaceuticals.
We have replaced moral formation with moral disintegration.
And now, schools—rather than admitting failure—tell parents that the answer is more therapy, more labels, more drugs, more surgical solutions.
Because if you can convince a ten-year-old they were “born in the wrong body,” you can justify anything.
