Joan, you asked a great question. Why is goodness deemed weak? At least in the last twenty five years we have seen people with moral convictions based on Judeo- Christian values be labeled bigots, racists, homophobes, evil, uncaring, - you name it. Those who stand for nothing, who choose to judge nothing by turning a blind eye and a deaf ear to immorality and evil are considered enlightened and progressive. Those who are good cower in the face of these accusations, because they fear not fitting into the social strata they aspire to. Labeling has become one of the most powerful tools of the far left. Those who quote the Bible or spiritual writings are deemed weak because they have entrusted their guidance and moral compass to a power higher than their own. For others, mankind has become a god unto himself. I believe it is virtually impossible to have a moral society without the presence of religion as a guiding force, the guilding force exemplified by the Founders of this Nation. They all acknowledged God in some way. Now we are seeing this country and many other western nations entrust their futures to their own finite wisdom and look at what we and they have to show for it.
