Every society is sick in one way or another so the answer would be yes but as I already said every society is sick at least a little bit.. Some more some less=)

when the porn industry is a multi-billion dollar industry and the divorce rate is higher than the marriage rate, and teenage girls are continuing to get pregnant because "they can handle sex" then these kids grow up with no father and a mother how doesn't know how to be a mother.........I can go on but the answer is yes I think America is a sick society.

Are there "sick" individuals in America? Absolutely. Is our government corrupt? Oh yeah. Do we say one thing then do another, even when we know its wrong? You betcha. Are we any different than any other place on earth? Not so much, in fact,some places have even more "sick", though that in itself assumes your idea and my idea of "sick" are the same. Really it would be better to say humanity is "sick" than to limit it to a single country. I could give you the same type of examples from pretty much anywhere. Nazi Germany, African gencide, discrimination based on sex, race, religion, rape, murder, incest, child abuse, cannibalism, human sacrifice. None of those are isolated to America or the "American way of life". Do they happen in America to varying degrees? Yes. Do they happen everywhere in varying degrees? Yes. Are there more "good" people in the world, America included, than "bad"? I think so.

Yep. I think America's turning into Paris Hiltons: shallow and stupid.
Okay, not everyone and I guess I meant to use "Paris Hilton" as the dumb blonde everyone knows she is, although I never met her, so I wouldn't know, so I hope this isn't like offensive. I just have a bad feeling about the future of America.

NO, I don't think our society is sick. Just some people!

I think the entire world is a "sick" society. Thank you and may GOD come soon to right the wrongs that have been done on this earth. In Jesus's name, AMEN.

Yes, I do. But, so are a lot of other places. I guess we just live in a really sick world.

Overall, no. It's reassuring to know that we are mostly a Christian nation. There are a lot of "sick" people though.
