Collective mediocrity…
I don't think there is rampant immorality but the symptoms are there of a collapse of social cohesion, family caused in some fashion by the worship of money and not God, the pursuit of mindless trivia, encouraged by the media, the stifling of thought in a straitjacket corporate world, the herd mentality where any deviation is considered heresy, the priority given machines over people, a plague of lawyers, the me syndrome, narcissism, the 15 minute lunch, fast food, the spread of loud "music", the obsession with action films, blood and gore...the list goes on. In short the de-humanization of society. If we were robots we would surely thrive in this world! Societies may revitalize for short periods but my guess is that it will take a miracle to reverse the long term decline of a culture.
