It’s because so many of our (ahem!) intellectual leaders have fully embraced Evolution, in all its Darwinian glory, as Nature’s Way. The world is constantly changing: therefor we and our institutions must also change, sometimes frantically, just to keep up. Because constant change is necessary for survival in a changing world. “What you and I see as destructive,” Mark writes, “they see as progressive.”
And presto–our civilization turns into a drunkards’ fire drill.
The only good news is that Christianity is the fastest-growing religion in the world today: Christ’s Kingdom being built one brick at a time, and always building.
There are an awful lot of people out there who want to Change The World, usually in ways that leave them luxuriously ensconced in seats of power while the rest of us try to live with the consequences of their socio-political experiments.
“He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh; the LORD shall have them in derision.Then shall He speak to them in His wrath, and vex them in His sore displeasure.” –Psalm 2: 4-5
The expansion of the church is unstoppable because it is God Who gives the increase, not man, although man is the instrument He uses to accomplish His purposes (along with the angels).

If He declares it, it has to come to pass.
Fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom.
amen and amen. I find myself quoting Psalm 2 quite often, as well as several others. It is hard to imagine that there are so many ignorant people who have degrees, etc. and think
they are equipped to instruct others. What a jolt they are in for “on that day.”
