In a spiritual world of quick fixes and vague emotion, is it crazy to believe there is still a place for insights based on simple, basic, theological understanding. I believe it is worth exploring.

A Touch of Humor - Turnabout
Is this country in a state of spiritual weakness? What can be done about it?
Hard to say Mike. Is our country spiritually weaker or stronger than when slavery was allowed by law? Is our nation greedier now than it was 200+ years ago? I think the answer to your question is a bit complicated. Not that folks are not happy to give simplistic answers. ツ
I think evaluating the spiritual level of a person or group is a very difficult thing. It is one thing to say a person or group of people have committed a specific sin or sins. It is another to judge their general spiritual state. I suspect that much of our nations former claims to follow God were superficial or even hypocritical, which makes any evaluation complicated.
