I'd say there's not a whole lot more than there always has been... it's just that non-believers are no longer keeping it to themselves these days. We've let the god-folk get away with having things their way for too long and now, we're finally saying ENOUGH. No public prayers in public buildings, no ID in schools, no making laws based on the 10 commandments, no postin the 10 commandments in a public building unless you're prepared to post beliefs of all religions represented in this country.
We are speaking out for ourselves and for all people, that this country does NOT become a theocracy and that anyone can believe what they choose to believe without fear of recrimination or violence, which is what happens in a large portion of our country if you so much as mutter that you MIGHT be an atheist.
If you Christians think you're persecuted, try walking a day in my moccasins... you'd be surprised.
And for those of you who are saying these are the end times... remember, the bibles states that NO ONE KNOWS when that time will come and to say, with definitive knowledge that these are indeed the end times is quite presumptuous and very much against the bible. And remember, people from every generation since Jesus' time have said that the end times would come in their lifetime... and they're all gone now. See a trend?

Did you know it says in the Old testamant that eating lobster
or crab is an abomination? Give the homo bashing a rest.
People today are losing it because just like the demons, they are falling for Satans lies. That God is an angry, punishing God. And
we are all going to get it!
What is getting ready to happen is not Judgement Day. Read the Book!
It is going to be a battle over Earth. Because there will be a
major worldwide earthquake, that will kill billions of humans at once, and create a spiritual power that will open the doors to
other realities. Isaiah 24.
There will be tribulation like never before, or will ever be again.
And when our foolishness extends into the realities and free
will of other worlds. God will put a stop to it.

It's not an abomination against God from people. It is an abomination against people by people.. All these religions are causing wars in His name! Give me a break. Most wars have been caused by Religious differences, thinking their God is better than yours. This has been going on for thousands of years.
Personally, I have studied every Major religion, and have then included Sioux, Chumash, and Nez Perce. All have the same fundamental beliefs, with tweaks to each one. God is God, Allah is Allah, Jehovah is Jehovah, Buddha is Buddha, etc, and all mean the same thing. We are in different parts of the world, with different environments, needs, and wants, and with-in our own communities / countries, we are all striving to reach the top of the same mountain, no matter what side we are climbing up on. I choose to slowly circle my way to the top.

There's absolutely no proof that there is or is not a God. People have the right to believe or disbelieve whatever they choose. I despise when people try to force their beliefs on others. I loathe when people are so self-righteous they think that what they believe is absolutely right and anyone who disagrees with them is absolutely wrong. How arrogant, narcissistic and close-minded. Why do you single out homosexuals (and lesbians are homosexuals by the way [you never hear people say heterosexuals and straight women]? Why don't you mention the murderers, rapists, thieves and child molesters????

I believe that the sole reason why everyone is getting out of hand with violence and doing wrong against God is the fact that Satan knows his end is coming soon. Satan's main goal is to turn as many people as he can from God. He does this to spite God.
Satan doesn't give a hoot about people. He just likes to use them for his own twisted reasonings. He revels in the notion that he can control as many people as he can. He wants to deceive as many people as he possibly can before it is "curtains" for him. As his time nearers closer to be locked up and banned in Hell for all eternity, violence, lesbianism, homosexuality and so much else will only get worse.
It is up to us Christians who truly believe in God to look up and ask God to save those who are lost and to look to God for His peace and His strength for us as well as the world.
Good luck and I hope this was helpful.

Satan is always hard at work - The gays have come up with the excuse that the parts of the Bible that say being a homosexual is sinful - well those parts of the Bible have not been proven yet - Like God could not write down His own Words!
Good Question!

Do you mean why there is such dislike about the nature of God?
Well according to the old testament God is a jealous being prone to hand out horrible punishments.
People feel affronted and patronised by the rantings of some preachers. It is human reaction.

Bible prophesy. In the end times, because inequity abounds, the love of many will grow cold.
There will be those who practice sin, and not only do they think there's nothing wrong with it, they will encourage others. (That's in the book of Romans).
Things are right on track with what is going on in the world. Interesting side note: before Rome fell, they were arguing over which vices should be legalized......
