I believe that the morals of this country is falling apart. Sometimes it makes me wonder how much lower can we go, but it seems like something happens and sure enough man-kind finds a way to go lower.
As I posted in the other poll I believe that religion plays a BIG part of the breakdown of our morals.
What has happened in the last 50 years? We took prayer out of school...........We've tried to remove the Ten Commandments from courthouses. Have you read them lately? Even if you're not religious they are good reminders of how to live a good moral life!! Why do they have to be removed if every life can be bettered by living by them?.............We have court orders to remove all nativity scenes from public view!..........It's like we have a band wagon rolling to remove all Christian influences from the USA........Does this affect our morals? You better believe it!

Diana.. Great post! You hit it right on the nose... The morals of this country has gone down as far as I am concerned. Starting with removal of prayer from our schools, in which religion began with our fore fathers when the Declaration of Independence was written. Christianity is a part of this country and athiests and others just want to abolish it. It makes me sooooooo mad when Christmas comes and all advertisements on t.v. and salespeople want to wish you a Happy Holiday, instead of wishing you a Merry Christmas.
Some towns do not want any Christmas Trees or Nativity Scenes in their town center. I say Freak the policitians get rid of the crooks in senate. They must do a full clean up , for there is so much corruption its beyond being funny. But don't get me started ....lol thats another topic...
Back to morals, how can our children have morals when most of the time its not taught at home. I feel for the future generation for there will be none....
oops did I post this on the wrong poll...lol
