22 Proofs that We’re Living in a Culture of Death

Are you one who loves death or life more? Not sure? Ask yourself this question? Which do I want more, to live or die? If the latter is the answer, then why is American culture so preoccupied with a culture of death?

The West has given itself over to a culture of death and self destruction. The signs are all around us and have been evident for several decades now.

The speed at which western society is going into the pit of death is increasing at an appalling rate.

If you talk to nearly anyone in America who is over 60 years old, they will tell you they don’t recognize our country, it has radically changed in the last 50 years, and it’s not the same country they grew up in.

The same generation overcame the Great Depression, defeated the Japanese and Nazis in World War II and went on to become our war heros, entrepreneurs, business leaders, educators, judges, political and religious leaders will tell you that they fear for their grandchildren and what kind of a world they will inherit. I know, because I talk with these people nearly every day and they share these concerns with me.

Here are the indicators that we have given ourselves over to a culture of death, and that we are dying morally and spiritually.

  1. America kicked prayer (and the God of the Bible) out of its public schools in the 1960s. When we did this, we chose to acquiesce to spiritual forces in our society promoting a culture of death and destruction.
  2. America legalized abortion in the early 1970’s — the murder of unborn babies. This genocide of the innocent has been going on to this day. The children who are born out of this holocaust are the survivors.
  3. The exponential growth of the federal government, so that every aspect of our lives is controlled and regulated making it more difficult to make and keep your money, start and run a business successfully, and to live your life freely and independently of government control, oversight, which brings on strangling restrictions. This has brought on the death of free enterprise, the entrepreneurial spirit and incentive for Americans to get ahead.
  4. The legalization of no-fault divorce resulting in a sky-rocketing divorce rate, and the break-up and destruction of families.
  5. The spread of socialism and the growth of the welfare state evolving into an entitlement mentality among many, thus eroding the work ethic and promoting and rewarding systemic laziness and dependence on others, and killing incentive among those who are still working hard and producing something.
  6. The legalization of some drugs that were once illegal causing a further breakdown of our society and the death morality.
  7. America’s turning its back on its moral and spiritual foundations, and its increasing hatred for everything that is Biblical or Christian. The rise of anti-Christianism is becoming increasingly blatant in all areas: judicial, educational, governmental, entertainment, and everywhere else in our culture resulting in the death of our spiritual values, the loss of our moral compass and repression of our societal conscience.
  8. The amazing rise in the celebration of and preoccupation with pagan and death-oriented holidays like Halloween.
  9. The rise in interest in the occult, witchcraft and Satanism.
  10. The rise in popularity of body mutilations (tatoos, body pierceings, cutting, and other forms of self-mutilation),which is now considered “art.” These bizarre practices we used to see only in the pages of the National Geographic magazine among the primitives of third world countries when we were kids. Now you see these barbaric customs are considered normative everywhere including on Main Street America.
  11. The rise in radical environmentalism where humans are now considered the aggressors and the destroyers of the planet that need to be eliminated to “protect” the environment in order to maintain “sustainability.” Ever see the bumpersticker, “I’m Pro-Choice,” and next it is another one that says, “Save the whales”? There is a logical disconnect here.
  12. The rise in popularity of and the government’s pandering to the Antichrist religion of Islam, which, if you will read the Koran, promotes a culture of death, destruction, lying, thievery, sexual perversion, subjugation of women and promotes and glorifies the destruction and genocide of all non-Muslims.
  13. The government’s failure to protect our national borders, thus allowing a tidal wave rise in illegal immigration into our country that is destroying our nation socially and economically.
  14. Governmental treaties and alliances with other nations resulting in the outsourcing of our manufacturing overseas thus killing jobs in America. This is helping to contribute to the death of our economy.
  15. The U.S. government sending our soldiers into pointless and destructive wars overseas thus causing mayhem and destruction abroad, and at the same time killing our young soldiers needlessly, and destroying us economically because of the wars’ expenses.
  16. America’s fascination with zombies.
  17. The popularity of video games that portray death and destruction.
  18. Out of the pit of moral degradation, homosexuality and other sexual perversions are rising up and become normative and popular behaviors. At the same time, traditional, biblical-based sexual values are being denigrated and eviscerated from our culture. This is resulting in the destruction of the family, marriage, morality and could ultimately bring about the death of the human race.
  19. Marriage is being redefined along perverse and deviant sexual lines. This is the destruction of the family and its ability to create future sons and daughters of Elohim.
  20. The rise in human trafficking.
  21. The destruction of our children through physical abuse and sexual exploitation. This is the moral and spiritual murder of the next generation, and sets in motion endless cycles pain and suffering for generations to come.
  22. The rise in legalized physician assisted suicide in states across America.

Which point of view is our culture of death promoting? That of Satan or that of Yeshua (Jesus)?

The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. (Yeshua the Messiah speaking in John 10:10).

These are just a few of the signs that could be given as evidence of our nation being gripped by a culture of death. Please share below what your thoughts are on this subject, and some of the other signs that you see.

  1. The USA sure isn’t promoting Yeshua, the enemy is doing it’s best to get rid of all things that would promote Holiness, goodness, life, and the Almighty Creator. Well that’s it in a nutshell!

  2. Amen! It’s very disturbing. I have a son still at home and all he wants to watch is The Walking Dead and any other show with the spirit of death on it. His dad watches it with him and I just hang my head and lol down and play with my phone till it goes off. I personally despise all of it but what am I to do when I am outnumbered? I have made it plain that it’s all demonic. I recently told them that what they’re viewing will be what those who go to hell will be seeing. Why would a child of light wanna view such perversion! GEEEZZZ!

  3. I am heart sick! I will be 71 in Dec. I knew the good old days! I have four grandchildren from 10 to 20 and I am so sad to think of what they have to face! Music they play has sexual indications too!
    YAH, send Y’shua soon! Praying for The Peace of Jerusalem!

  4. if you take the “T” (the cross) out of the word immortality, you have immorality! They are oblivious to the WORD of GOD…if you take the “li” (the lie) out of the word oblivious, the word becomes obvious! just a few of the plays on words He has revealed to me. May Yehovah have mercy on America…why should He bless America when America doesn’t bless God.

  5. I’m just hanging onto the promise of Yeshua. He said when gross darkness covered the earth His light would shine on us. He is ALWAYS faithful to his word to perform it. This is what keeps me from living in fear and gives me great peace. ✝

  6. After having a bout with injury and having to take pain meds I noticed that my thoughts were quieter, that my creativity was hampered and my connection with Elohim became hazy and disjointed. Prescriptions for pain meds in this country have spike significantly in the last 20 years…but since it is from the doctor and is legal our society has made it acceptable to take for the flimsiest of maladies…..
