Ezekiel 16:49, “Behold,
this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fulness of bread, and
abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she
strengthen the hand of the poor and needy.”
America today parallels that wicked city of Sodom in the Old Testament, a
city so rotten that God rained down fire and brimstone upon its inhabitants
in judgment. Ezekiel 16:49 lists Sodom's identical sins with America today:
pride, fulness of bread, abundance of idleness and failing to help the
misfortunate.
Americans spend most of their time watching TV,
idolizing Hollywood and sports, worshipping celebrities, playing video
games, partying and living it up for themselves; while stuffing their faces
with an overabundance of food in their arrogant, hard-hearted pride. America
today is a THOUSAND times more wicked than Sodom. We dwell in a
gutter-society, a morally-toxic cesspool of filth.
One of the worst sins of that wicked city Sodom
was neglecting the poor and needy. One of the rottenest sins of America is
the way we mistreat our elderly. I am shocked as I read the plethora of
horrifying stories concerning the elderly. It is sad that our elderly have
to travel to Canada and Mexico to purchase affordable medications. It is
tragic.
There is no respect for the elderly in the
United States, because unlike the Asian cultures where children are taught
responsibility, respect and loyalty to family, there are no such teachings
in the United States. If children are taught that it's ok to kill life by
abortion, then how can you expect them to value the life of the elderly?
America's Rock 'N' Roll culture of immoral sex,
substance abuse and rebellion has destroyed our once great nation. Today,
women wear pants like men, scoff at the notion that it's a sin to have
premarital sex, eagerly abort their babies because they chose to have
immoral sex, quit their marriages on a whim, and then blame the man for all
their problems as feminism teaches. It is all wickedness in the eyes of God.
America's children sit in front of a TV for 4
to 6 hours day, whether it be watching all sorts of demonic filth on TV or
playing video games (many of which contain graphic violence, New Age
doctrines and demonic smut). There is no honor in American youth
today. They talk sassy, dress immodestly, speak foolishly, behave like
brats, dishonor their parents and have no place for the God of the Bible in
their self-centered lives. Each generation become worse and worse.
93-year-old Man Freezes to Death After
Power Turned Off
Increasingly, U.S. society sits back and
mercilessly watches the elderly suffer and die. Many of the elderly are
barely surviving. Many freeze to death. I can't imagine an electric company
just cold-heartedly turning someone's power off without first talking to the
tenant. It evidences the rottenness of this selfish nation. All Americans
seem to care about nowadays is watching football on TV, having a good time
and spoiling themselves. Judgment Day is coming!
Schur’s
freezing death is also an indictment of how US society treats
its elderly. Since January 17, four people over the age of 80
have been found frozen in Michigan. Doubtless there are many
other such incidents across the country that never come to
light. Many of these elderly people fall down near their homes,
their bodies only discovered hours, or even days later.
The government is able to find trillions of dollars to bail out
the largest banks and to conduct imperialist wars around the
globe, but it will not provide the resources necessary to afford
elderly workers safe and secure retirements. Care for the
elderly in the US is viewed as “individual responsibility.”

That is so true. Our government leaders
have allowed the Banksters to bilk us out of trillions of taxpayer
dollars, while Americans can't even find a decent job or pay their
mortgage. It seems that nobody cares anymore. Most Americans just
don't care. Things have become so messed up in the United States
that people are giving up. There are millions of homeless people on
the streets of America. It is tragic. Our government has money for
everyone except Americans.
It is a shame what happened to this
elderly gentleman in Michigan. Someone will answer to God for his
needless death. In effect, the utility company killed him . . .
Amidst widening
public outrage over the freezing death of 93-year-old
Marvin Schur. which took place some time between January
13 and 17, municipal authorities in Bay City,
Michigan have announced plans to temporarily suspend
electricity shutoffs and the use of “limiters,” devices
that restrict and potentially block energy to households
delinquent on electricity bills.
Schur died after the
city put a limiter on his house as punishment for
accruing just under $1,100 in outstanding bills to the
municipally owned electric company. At some point the
limiter cut power to the entire house, which interrupted
the operation of the man’s gas furnace. The city did not
explain to Schur how to reactivate the limiter, and the
elderly man, who may have suffered from dementia, was
found dead several days later inside his freezing home.
The moratorium on the
use of limiters will affect 60 to 70 households in Bay
City that currently have the punitive device installed
on their homes, according to city’s electric department
director, Phil Newston. Newston also said that the city
delivers suspension notices to about 50 households per
week. The action was only taken after the needless and
horrible death of the retired worker.
Politicians have
finally made statements on the tragedy after mounting
public anger. The Democratic politicians who represent
Bay City, Rep. Jeff Mayes and Sen. Jim Barcia, have
called for a moratorium on electricity service
suspensions and limiters. But neither US Congressman for
Bay City, Dale Kildee, nor Michigan Governor Jennifer
Granholm has offered a statement, according to their web
sites and news searches.
For now, the city is
not contemplating any significant changes and has made
it clear the moratorium will only be temporary. City
Commission President Christopher J. Shannon, 1st Ward,
told the Bay City Times, “The solution going
forward is we’re going to have to identify the elderly
and the infirmed as best we can when issuing a shutoff
notice.” The politicians find inconceivable any solution
that challenges the profit imperatives and monopolies of
the big energy suppliers.

The elderly are treated like garbage in America
nowadays. Kids just don't care anymore because they've not been taught to
care. Public school kids are taught that they evolved from slime. How can
any child overcome such an obstacle which forms his entire opinion of self
and reduces life to nothing. Firm believers in Evolution are unanimous
supporters of evolution, eugenics and other evils.
Adolf Hitler was a loyal fan of Charles Darwin's evolutionistic
conclusions, because it seared his conscience concerned genocide. But you'll
never learn this in a Marxist public school system. The
10th Plank
of Karl Marx's Communist Manifesto called for a public school system to
enable government brainwashing of children. And so it is today in America!
Few Americans care to realize the detrimental
effects that legalized abortion has caused in our society. By allowing such
a violation of human rights, a total travesty of human dignity and
self-worth, we have opened a Pandora's box to Euthanasia, killing off of the
elderly, eugenics, infanticide, forced abortions, sterilization through tap
water additives and a whole bunch more. Already we are seeing many of these
evils in the United States.
Nothing is more indicative of a society's true
moral status than how the poor and elderly are treated. Our poor in America
live in cardboard boxes in alley's, in subway stairwells, under bridges and
wherever they can barely survive. Especially in the cold northern climates.
When the elderly are freezing to death because of thug utility companies,
America has gone to Hell.
It's easy for someone sitting behind a nice
warm desk to cutoff someone's electricity, because they're not the one who
suffers or freezes to death. America is already becoming like Communist
China in so many ways, tyranny is here folks!
Look what China has
become. You haven't seen nothing yet, the Police State is just getting
started in the U.S. and you can rest assure that the poor and elderly are
going to suffer much more.
Americans are now starting to pay for their
rebellion against the God of the Bible. Sin always undermines any nation.
Wickedness causes a nation's citizens to become complacent, indifferent and
foolish.
The hallmark quality of a God-fearing Christian
is caring enough to make a difference. Most people these days couldn't care
less, because they don't fear God. Romans 3:18, “There is no fear of God
before their eyes.” God cares (1st Peter 5:7) and those who fear God
also care. If you don't care, it is only because you don't know and fear
God. I care!
