>>This is actually the downfall of America - the love of money and material possessions. >>This is also the reason why the Christian church in America has become all but destroyed. Prosperity gospels and false prophets that tell people what they want to hear. Social gospels which deny Jesus and scripture while giving lip service to feel-good thoughts. The boomers who are too busy enjoying retirement and pension to their graves instead of fighting for their children and grandchildren. >>What is happening to us now is judgment. People are trying to preserve their material lives when it's actually the very thing which is bringing destruction upon ourselves. Unless Americans learn to give up our idols, and fast, our nation will completely collapse. pretty much this, sir!
