what is most disturbing trend in America?
« on: August 02, 2017, 12:17:09 PM »
wow, i can't even answer my own question, there are so many disturbing trends to choose from

i dont like the way our children are not being educated properly, are taught to hate our past, pretty much... "hate Washington and Jefferson b/c they owned slaves" Well, for one thing, Washington set at least some of his slaves free at his death, i have heard. For aother, we are ALL hypocrites, but some of us try to deal with our own hypocrisy and i say this country has DONE THat... so just buzz off, all you haters

so anyway, where was I?

disturbing trends... 

I don't like it that people are trying to shut up the president.. shut off communication w/ the People by  constantly criticizing his use of Twitter. I love the tweets... and no one ever claimed that policy should be made with such tweets. Give me a break. 

But that is not the most disturbing.. 

I guess the most disturbing would be how people are not going to Church much anymore, much less the True Church. Sometimes not so true "churches" lead one to the True Church so we can't say they are all bad..

All truly disturbing trends are the way people are turning away from Our Lord.  Disagreeing with the president is just expressing a view and not particularly disturbing.  Arguing over baseball isn't disturbing. 

The acceptance of abortion is disturbing.  Along with the LGBTQ+ad nauseum is disturbing but it's really just a sign of people being given over to the lusts and their lusts aren't just evil but laughably ridiculous.

The acceptance of divorce and remarriage is disturbing and the trend in the Vatican toward accepting this new reality is very disturbing.

The acceptance of birth control, though antiseptic and ordinary in it's every day occurrence, is greatly disturbing.  And add in the fact that you would have a very hard time convincing people who use birth control that it is intrinsically evil is also disturbing but users of birth control could be lumped in with the LGTBQ+ad nauseum crowd.

No doubt I left out plenty of stuff over which to be disburted.

Ditto. That is exactly what I would have said.
You can add divorce and adultery, fornication, immoral dress, they all go together with the above mentioned contraception, abortion, aberrosɛҳuąƖism, all the same dung in different packaging.

I think a quietly disturbing trend is personal reliance on electronic devices.
.
Starting with TV, when it takes over your life and you can't get through the day without your requisite stint glaring at the boob tube (aka the devil's tabernacle, so said Fr. Frank Poncelet).
.
Anyone who thinks that Westerns are full of admirable morality ought to have his head examined. They have total disregard for the sacredness of life and kill one another with abandon over trifles. Fornication, adultery, theft, contempt of God and His Church, Protestantism at best and even that's made into a joke -- what social redeeming value is there in that?
.
But now the iPhones and tablets are taking over so that people can't communicate face to face anymore. In Hawaii it will become an offense punishable by fine the first time, to be looking at a cell phone while walking across a public street. They've had too many pedestrians run over when they're paying no attention to traffic. I see this a lot, like a boy skateboarding down the sidewalk, leaps the curb and soars across the intersection without so much as looking over his shoulder at the cars coming at him. If you think that's bad, I've had mothers pushing their stroller come out without looking for cars, walking right in front of me when I'm about to turn through their cross walk. If I don't brake while cars are coming up behind me at 40 MPH, I'd run over the baby and the mother.
.
Then there is the horrific content of movies. There is a new movie about the Catholic martyrs of Japan that ends with one stomping on a crucifix in order to be spared torture. That ending is fake and made up for shock effect, but the rest of the film is much too disturbing for Catholics to view in the first place, even if it is what really happened. Devil worshippers enjoy making Christians feel miserable. Now their practice is becoming popularized by indecent fashions, profane language, indecent behavior and the like. This all ties in to the posts above regarding abortion, divorce, public acceptance of pederasty (alias LBGTQETC).
.
Read the Old Testament and see what God did to Israel when they lost the faith. Look at what God allowed to happen in Japan to the two most Catholic cities there (Heroshima and Nagasaki) after the Japanese tortured and killed Catholics for hundreds of years. God's patience with America is already unbelievably stretched thin. How it could go on much more I have no idea.

Yes, all those things are disturbing trends, some turn my stomach.

Lately I've been seeing colored hair that looks more like cotton candy on girls and women of all ages, seemingly they are competing to see who can look the most ridiculous.

Although, as disturbing as that it, it's not so bad as the whole tattoo ugliness because at least the fruits with colored hair can change their hair color back to normal in case they ever come to their senses.
