The Shadow of Christ in the Law of Moses, a memorable quote—

“It is not accidental that the glaring socio-political and criminal problems of the late twentieth century concern matters where our society has turned against the specific directives of God’s law. Humanism has been taught in our schools and media; it has been practiced in economics, medicine, politics, and our courts. And the results have been a social disaster. Human life is treated as cheap. Sexual purity is an outdated concept. Truth and honesty have little place in the ‘real world’ of business or politics. Repeat offenders and crimes which go completely unpunished belittle the criminal justice system. Prison reform is desperately needed. In short, humanism has proven its ineffectiveness in case after case…” – G. Bahnsen, quoted by V. Poytheress

Can’t imagine that just 50 yrs ago, the major offense in public school was chewing gum and not dressing properly…now the kids go to schools w/ metal detectors b/c their own classmates carry weapons.
