Nood you describe an odd picture of what the culture is; I think it's by your need to paint a picture that redeems your beliefs, instead of the other way around. You're seeing what you want to see.

Either that, or Colorado is totally insane. I'm not ruling that out.

with people committing mass murder in schools and businesses

I attended schools for 18 years and not once did anyone commit a murder at any of them, much less a mass one. I have worked at and consulted for (...counts... aw fuggit) about 30 different companies and not once did anyone commit a murder at any of them. There was a guy who lost it, but he only became convinced that he was working on a super-secret AT&T project, and had to be escorted out.

Don't watch the news and listen to the sermon and take that as your reality. Look around and see the reality for yourself. In the reality I notice, people go to their schools and learn, spend most of ther time working at their jobs, and try in vain to get a little bit of entertainment at the end of the day.

everything that is evil being propped up and everything that is pure being mocked and derided

Everything...! Mocked and derided! Please. I mock and deride this statement as obviously false.

and decide that things are better when God is out of the picture.

What you really want is for people to have a stronger moral basis in general, not specfically your moral basis, right?
