If there is one word I would use to describe our world at this time, it would be this: confused. As time has unfolded and choices have been made, we find ourselves now in a world where the most basic aspects of human identity are being called into question. Biological makeup is no longer considered an adequate definition of gender; internal feelings and desires are the determining factors. Marriage and fidelity are believed to be outdated and have been traded for an “anything goes” mentality. Life itself is no longer understood as a beating heart or a functioning brain, and now individual comforts, preferences, and conveniences can be offered as legitimate reasons to terminate the lives of others. 

We are a nation polarized, a house divided, and we have no real direction. Like a frog slowly being boiled in a pot of water, the result is that we find our nation creeping further and further into a destructive moral vacuum.
