When we stop taking God out of the public arena,
When we stop killing our unborn children through both birth control and abortion,
When we stop violating the privilege and holy state that is marriage,
When we recognize the family as the building block of society,
When we stop sneering at families with many children,
When we stop dressing like hookers and making fun of those who dress modestly,
When we start to realize the health of the soul is more important than the beauty of the body,
When we stop treating Sundays like Saturdays,
When we stop believing we are self-enlightened,
When we start thanking God for what we have AND for what we don't have,
When we start praying with our hearts and not just our mouths,
When men start to act like men and women start to act like women,
When we start being better examples for our children,
When we start humbling ourselves rather than making ourselves know-it-all "gods",
When we stop expecting everything to be given to us without any sacrifice on our part,
When we realize that justice means we may do evil here but will be punished,
That those who suffer here may more easily find happiness after death,
That earth is NOT where we are meant to have all we want,
That the mercy of God is perfectly balanced with His justice,
That yes, God does punish us to teach us, just as our parents punished us to teach us,
And that we do not dictate what is right and wrong, but that He does...
One of two things will happen.
1. We will understand why the world is how it is, and realize the punishments we have brought upon ourselves, and pray harder to do God's will and accept his punishments,
2. We will see the beginning of a better world.
If we're lucky, maybe both will happen.
