Our country is in moral decline. We have substituted political correctness for moral character,integrity, honesty and responsibility. Where is the blame? We look to our politicians and leaders to set an example for this great nation. But where did the real problem start? Ahh maybe it started with you and I the American people. We have ignored the responsibility and privilege to vote with Christian guidelines and have become complacent with our duty to hold every elected official accountable. Look at some of the great statements the great men of this new country has made.
"The time has come that Christians must vote for honest men and take consistent ground in politics or the Lord will curse them.... Christians have been exceedingly guilty in this matter. But the time has come when they must act differently...... Christians seem to act as if they thought God did not what they do in politics. But I tell you He does see it-and He will bless or curse this nation according to the course they (Christians)take in politics.

Sometimes it is so hard for each person to accept the blame, but we must do this and correct the problem with God's help, guiding and blessing.
