COSMIC VIEW

As the twentieth century wound down, absolute moral standards became relative. Once illegal homosexual acts were first tolerated and then taught in public schools. Sexual relations before and outside marriage “evolved” from scandalous to the norm.

Now we have a married woman and mother having sex with her husband or not on online porn streaming services to raise money for her campaign for political office.

Such depravity shocks and offends many but not all. Some might say: Better that she sell her body to lowlifes to win an election than her soul to lobbyists and special interests causing her to disregard the wishes of her constituents.

But the shocking case of Democrat Susanna Gibson is actually typical of the moral rot history may cite as the reason America was defeated from within.

While legal teams and politicians quibble over a plea deal for the utterly corrupt First Family, the First Son’s “laptop from hell” thoroughly documented both his illegalities and his sins and those of most members of his family.

After JFK and Bill Clinton, Americans no longer expect their leaders to be morally upright. But they should. “American Exceptionalism” requires no less.

No public official is perfect but he or she should hold themselves accountable to the public, repenting or resigning from office to uphold high standards if necessary. The nation’s honor and best interests should come before their own.

The seventh and tenth commandments in Exodus 20 are concise: “You shall not commit adultery” and ““You shall not covet your neighbor’s house. You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, or his male or female servant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor.”

According to the Bible, our Creator hates violations of His spiritual laws which He created because He wanted His lost children to return to their original nature in His image. Young children innately know that original nature and are sensitive to violations of it.

Individuals, families and the nation can be redeemed but only by upholding those God-given standards which implies humility and repentance. Do the words “humility” and “repentance” have meaning in “woke” America?

Given that God and the Ten Commandments have been excised from this nation’s body politic, redemption is not an option. That leaves only death.

If a woman who aspires to political leadership has no fundamental integrity, why should voters expect their elections to have meaning or their nation to have borders?

So bye, bye Miss American pie?
