Decadent World

Greed's augmentation

   Common good's minimization 

                   Morality's degradation  

                         Faith's condemnation 

                                     God's alienation 
   '
                                        Man's desperation

                                       Society's disintegration

                                                    Evil's glorification:

                                                  CHAOS' enthronization!

"CHAOS' enthronization!" ! Though it is hard to admit as a real fact happening now.. when souls are empty of values and spirituality and get themselves immersed in ugliness and evil definitely chaos reigns! Your writes are gems of rarity dear Demetrios insightful as always.. Stay safe and blessed.

Alas, it is true my dearest friend, Maureen! If people like you and the rest here do not do anything about it the decadent world will get worse! I hope and pray that we soon realize the gravity of the situation and act accordingly with the help of God so as to make a better and nobler world! Thank you so much!

Well stated dearest friend- I do believe that it's only a small faction of dissents who will like to destroy. The majority of humans are not intrinsically like that - careless perhaps and they have been conditioned not to voice their opinion - But we can see a paradigm shift happening and the motivation of the Good is rising. There is still a chance...Maria xxx

My dearest friend, Maria no one can ever doubt the goodness of your heart but saying that only a small faction is responsible for the state the world finds itself in is like saying that only a small faction is responsible for the planet's pollution! Observing what is going on for 74 years and having traveled around the world believe me things are not as good as we wished them to be! I pray that I am wrong but every day life proves us wrong! Thank you! XXX
