Culture...

Perhaps it started when Cain slew his brother Abel and it continued with the thousands of wars man has waged ever since.  In today’s world the weapons of death have increased so much so that now evil people fire missiles to kill dozens of innocent people hundreds of miles away.   The hate in man’s heart has only increased.  And why not?  Violence, cynicism and moral irrelevance are so prevalent in TV, movies, music, media, speech, newspapers, books, social media venues and even video games that the acceptance of immoral actions is now the norm.  If one concentrates solely on the gun as the only problem he is missing the real issue.  The evil in man’s heart has been perpetuated, accepted and even glorified in our culture so much so that to some the right to life means nothing.   When you kill millions of children in the womb and call it choice, kill people in the streets through more violence, euthanize the elderly and glorify death in movies and TV, you start to foster a culture that has no respect for its people.  If you were to take away every single gun in America, the evil in men’s heart would still find a way to hurt and kill someone else because our country is quickly becoming a culture of death and not a culture of life.... if we’re not there already.
