Welcome to a Godless country...

This morning I heard about a 15-year-old kid in Florida who was set on fire by 5 other kids because he went to the police after they stole his bike. They doused him with rubbing alcohol and lit him on fire. He is now in intensive care and struggling for his life... he probably won't make it.

You can read about him at the Miami Herald.

They played a soundbite from these kids' miscreant of a lawyer. She talked about how what they did to this kid was heart wrenching to her as a mother and former teacher. She called it a tragedy. BUT then, in the same breath, she said that they were pleading "not guilty." NOT GUILTY? What the crap?! What part of what they did deems them not guilty, lady? Only one of these kids--ONE--is even remorseful.

What the heck is wrong with these children? Why are they hating, killing, raping, and maiming each other? What is wrong with us!?! What has happened to us?

What has happened is the removal of God--first from schools and now slowly but surely from society all together (thanks, ACLU... you guys are gems). Without God there is no rule of law and no accountability.

There have been studies that explicitly show that since prayer was removed from school in the 60's, violence, teen pregnancy, and a whole other plethora of horrible things has skyrocketed amongst our kids and in society. How do people not see the correlation? How can you not admit that without God we are horrible, disgusting, lost creatures?

There is no guilt or shame anymore because our kids are being programmed to believe that there is no God who lovingly gave us laws and direction for our own good and protection. So why should they care? On top of that, all kids get nowadays is slaps on the wrist anyway because they are "just kids and don't really know what they are doing." My butt they don't know what they are doing! Because of this mentality they are given free passes left and right instead of facing real consequences. What do they have to be afraid of that would make them think twice about committing atrocities against each other? Nothing.

Lord, forgive us for our stupidity and self-centeredness. In our selfishness we have removed You, thinking we can do things on our own, and with that the gates of Hell have been opened wide. Please help us. We need You. Please do not turn a deaf ears to the cries of those of us who still serve You...
