As a result, Europe was converted and its people arose from the chaos and rubble of the invading Germanic tribes which led to its collapse.<BR/><BR/>Civilizations usually collapse because of moral depravity. The sins of homosexuality, abortion, euthanasia,contraception, embryonic stem cell research, etc have taken their toll on our beautiful nation. It is the human life issues that are causing the national destruction.<BR/><BR/>I will never understand the ability of man to decapitate, dismember and burn children in the womb of their mothers. This is horrific and utterly non-negotiable in the moral order. <BR/><BR/>I would suggest the writings of John Paul II's Theology of the Body and Love and Responsibility.<BR/><BR/>When a civilization destroys its young by the millions, what can we expect to happen?<BR/><BR/>God will raise up great saints again, however, what will we have to go through to have them arrive?<BR/><BR/>JLKatie Lairdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03983573892360737135noreply@blogger.com
