Why does society seem to be heading in a social decline? Does this social decay have a connection with what generations of children now get taught in school?
Why does this remind me so strongly of the quote from Socrates about how 'today's children have no respect for their elders and everything's going to hell in a handbasket....' ?

Re: ...
As nations turn their backs on God, living as if he doesn't exist. Sin abounds - political corruption, lying, slander, debauchery, violent crime, abortion, theft, adultery, drug taking, drunkenness, gambling, and greed. Economic woes and social chaos follow as taxes increase and governments borrow money to pay for bigger police forces, jails, and social security systems to patch up the problems.
And the differences between this and the last 2000 years of history are what?

Re: ...
And to this day no book in the world has correctly fortold the future hundreds of times without mistakes.
Well, there's an accurate statement. No book has even come close. No book.

Re: ...
They both involve scientist working in labs doing there experiments.
Oh? Can you document an instance, other than the recent work the RATE group has done in mailing samples off for radiometric dating, where any "creation scientist" has done any lab work at all? They appear to me to spend their time preaching to the "converted" and sitting at their computers writing apologetics!
