Why are worldly attributes SO important to this day and age? We forget what matters.

the things like family,special needs, health, service, virtue, exc are not even a thing to think abt to some people. most people only think abt what others think abt them, or electronics or something

It started about forty years ago, when a woman named Madeleine Murray O'Hair got God kicked out of the public schools. This was a huge victory for liberals and atheists (usually the same thing). Then they set about getting rid of God from every single public place you can think of. Pretty soon, the country started losing its morality.

Before this, our society had values and standards for people to live up to. There was great stigma attached to divorce (men who left their family responsibilities and children behind were considered lowlife), unmarried women and girls who got pregnant were considered to be immoral, and were shunned by polite society, and bankruptcy was considered lazy and lowdown. Honesty and decency were valued above all else. The result of all this was that people behaved themselves and they taught their children to behave, too.

While all of the above behaviors still happened, they were not common like today. Today, no one believes in anything. Everyone wallows in greed and bad behavior, and the media celebrates it. Our society is sick beyond words.

I did, and I can't tell you how much I miss it. I am continuously sickened by the state of affairs in my country today, and I wish desperately that people were not so crass and ignorant. It was nice when you could talk to someone and have the expectation that that person was educated and polite.
