Is society dying from the inside out?

Question

The human race appears to be lacking morals more so than any other time in history.

What is the end result for an immoral society?

Answer 1

You need to study history more. Check out late 19th century London or 14th century Spain, or 1930s Poland for starters.

By the way, EVERY generation says "These are the worst times! It's really the worst it has ever been now! Morals are out the window!" You can even find Socrates saying this. It is a subjective illusion.

Answer 2

Societies are cyclic. I am hoping this is a quick down cycle with a long upward curve for many eons.
My guess is that humanity will fall back to the reset position of tribes and slowly rebuild to where we are today - to repeat as many times until a change occurs that stops the reset.
(Like saying 2+2=5 until it does.)
I hope I am wrong, of course.
Not only morals - but courage and honor to do the right thing in the face of profit and fame.

Answer 3

We are definitely at a low point in society morally. I'm not ready to say we're at an all time low. Throughout the Bible people tended to get on that downward slope. Take Noah's day for instance...the Bible says" So God looked upon the earth and indeed it was corrupt, for all flesh had corrupted their way on the earth. Repeatedly even the children the Bible say did evil in the site of the Lord. He would discipline them, they would repent and He would deliver them. Then they would do evil again. Over and over this went throughout the old Testament.Immoral societies throughout the Bible suffered the anger of God. It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of an angry God. God will send suffering to bring a people to their knees and if they call on Him and repent He will forgive and turn away His anger, If not He will destroy them. That's how it works throughout the Bible anyway. Also in the Bible God judged cities that passed laws that were pro same sex. He also said that He cursed the land of those that shed innocent blood. We have slaughtered millions of babies legally in this country. You can't get more innocent than a baby. And if we don't turn around soon I believe we will see the wrath of God. While all this sounds dark and gloomy, there is still hope . We as Christians need to humble ourselves before God and pray for God to send revival.God bless!!

Answer 4

In today's society we have alot of bleeding heart people like the ACLU and other organizations tearing this country slowly apart. Also no one is held accountable for there actions today and morality is down the drain. Just look at our TV and Movies. Crime, murder and drug use is up. Read your bible in society's similar like ours that sprung up many years ago. God sent his angels to these places to try to get them to change. If they did change there ways they were spared and if they did not change they were destroyed.

Answer 5

Disagree, it just seems that way.
What do you define as immoral?
It's all the stuff we have & do that distracts us. We don't know who we are b/c we equate ourself with all the stuff. We're just confused & forgot who we are. But that doesn't make us immoral.
Besides in this day of communications, we just know about it more than we used to. And with an increased population, there are more people to report about.
There was always stuff happening, we just hid it more or didn't hear about it.

Answer 6

Government control.

Answer 7

Anomie....As technology increases and brings people together, it also has the opposite effect and tears them apart. More people are spending time in front of their p.c. and interacting with bots than their family.
