So much has been written and said about the decline of the American society. Historically, using the decline of other great societies as our standard, we learn that there are many common factors. The acceptance and promotion of perversions, primarily sexual perversions, is always present. Financial dependence upon government for more and more of the population, along with acceptance for and demand for greater government censorship. The breakdown of the core family with parents demanding the government having more and more responsibility in raising children and being the greatest influence on values being taught to kids. Declining church attendance and attacks on those who profess the name of Jesus or Bible believing people. And along with all the above, we see the use of and acceptance of profanity.
All the above are now present in American society. The use of profanity is now common. Profanity is common on social media. Profanity is common on television. Profanity is common in conversations in homes, schools, and other places. Some words still have asterisks or dashes for the middle letters, but it is profanity, nevertheless. “Profanity is the effort of a feeble brain to express itself forcibly,” is a common and truthful quote. Profanity is also a testimony to the failure of our education system. Individuals vocabularies have shrunk which is a decline in our ability to express ourselves. Do yourself a favor and read the speeches of Patrick Henry or any of our founders, read the writings of Thomas Paine or any of our founders. Go back from that time or go forward from that time and read. You will not read profanity. You will need a good dictionary, but you will learn how to clearly express yourself. When you use profanity, you are exhibiting your intellectual inadequacy, you are exhibiting your moral deficiency, and you are contributing to the moral decline of society. You can play a part in reversing the decline of society. Speak without using profanity. It will have a positive impact on you, those around you, and our society in total.
