  • Many people here has spoken of wanting to leave the USA. Instead of doing that why not move to the South, the old Confederacy.

      Things are more moral there.  

        What do you think?

  • I think part of the reason people want to leave the US is because of the college loan debt bubble. People are borrowing upwards of $150,000 and left with a devastating debt that they've made themselves indentured servants to pay off for 20+ years after they've acquired the "piece of paper confirming that you've been brainwashed" as I fondly refer to it as.

    Personally, if I wanted to move somewhere, I'd go somewhere, of course, where there is a true Mass, but also some state that has no income tax. If I wanted to move out of the country, I'm not so sure.

    Just saying, I understand the mentality of wanting to leave the US, though.
    Matthew 5:37

    But let your speech be yea, yea: no, no: and that which is over and above these, is of evil.

  • As for being "more moral" in the South than in the North, it depends upon what, precisely, you are looking at.

    When I drive in the South, I notice a lot more billboards, graphic billboards, along the interstate highway for 24-hour "adult bookstores".  One can drive a hundred miles and see 10 to 20 signs advertising some such store at a particular exit.  Then, after driving another hour, it all starts again for another pornography retailer.  These are very large, graphic, signs with pictures of scantily clad women on them.  They are impossible to ignore and not see.

    While I have seen such stores in the North, all that I have seen along the interstate (mostly in Ohio and Pennsylvania) are marked with a word only sign and no billboards along the approach (at least, not ones I have ever noticed).  If they do exist, they are unobtrusive and easily missed.

    I have often wondered why the so-called "Bible-Belt" tolerated such explicit displays of pornography for miles upon miles while the Northern liberal meccas precluded such advertising along the interstate.  I would have thought it would be the other way around, but the fact is, it isn't.

    This is just one example.  While I'm sure that others can provide examples where the appearance of morality is reversed, I simply don't think that the South is "more moral" than the North.  It just depends upon what issue of morality one is focusing upon.

    I live in the south. It is true that people up north tend to be more liberal than people in the south. However, the south also has more Protestants, and I'd say there are fewer TLMs. So it really depends on where in the south you live.

  • I thought the main difference between the North and the South is that in the South more people have guns.

  • Consider that during the American cινιℓ ωαr, from (1860 ~ 1865), the anti-Catholic Karl Marx supported the industrialized North, while Pope Pius IX supported Jefferson Davis of the genteel, agrarian South.

    The Yankees had to crush the South, because it was a threat to their ʝʊdɛօ-masonic revolution.

    Yes, there are numerous Catholics in the south, they're just outnumbered by Protestants.

    Where in South Carolina did you visit?

  • My spouse and I have just about decided that we could move to a foreign country and be just as happy or happier than we are here. The America we grew up in and wanted for our kids and grandkids is gone, and isn't coming back. We watch as more freedom is taken away, morality is more and more debased, crime keeps rising..We were both raised to be very patriotic, and love our country very much. But it is not the same country any more. How much loyalty do we continue to owe a flag that represents not much of anything anymore?

  • The Bible Belt South is much better as far as public morality than the Northeast. There is no comparison. There is still a Christian influence in some of the black culture too, especially with the baby boomers. Protestantism is something to contend with but it's better than than the more liberal North where they don't believe in God and we all need to tolerate sodomites and the men look like sodomites dressed them.

    One thing better about the North is they seem to have more Christian views towards the poor and view them more as people. They are also more for worker's rights.
