I don't think the best route to take is focusing on "end times" predictions and apocalypse and such with these issues. The fact is, persecution of REAL Christians in coming. There are those sell-out posers who are pro-gay "marriage" and turn the other cheek to abortion and are ok with cohabitation and the LGBT propaganda, birth control, and every other issue but still go to Mass on Sunday. They're Christian hipsters and think themselves intellectual and superior while ignoring the basics and twisting their own catechism to suit their needs and the needs of other lefties. Then there are far-right wingers who see end times in everything.
From where I'm standing, our country is in a post-Christian sad state of affairs and moral collapse. From that collapse everything will get worse. Legislation, laws, crack-downs, systems, rules, taxes, and every other strategy won't bring you back from the pit when you're in a moral shut-down. Take California. We're in the most severe drought I've ever seen. It is literally changing the landscape of my state and destroying whole parts of it financially and logistically. Yet where is prayer and repentance? If this were a Christian nation, we'd have civic leaders praying and we'd fast and devote ourselves to God for a solution. That doesn't even dawn on us.
Crime and our social systems is in collapse because of immorality. Most of the parents in my classroom are divorced or have kids from multiple partners they never even bothered to marry or even love. Plenty of abuse and shacking up and inappropriate content and sloth and dependence on welfare, drugs, criminality, and apathy. There isn't God in the center of the lives of these people. They're just living as animals that get an itch, have some sex to satisfy urges, eat their In 'n Out Burger, fight and steal, and do what comes "natural."
I listen to the way my students interact, how their parents communicate and interact, and I hear people when I'm shopping and out and about, and it's a very UN-civil society.
Are we in the "end times?" Heck if I know. But I do know that our nation is an immoral cesspool. You get all these folks coming into OBOB behaving as if Roe v. Wade, this new SCOTUS immorality with LGBT "marriage," the pro-Islamic mentality, the apathy, and atheism of our nation is no big woop. It IS. Do I agree with the OP that we're at apocalypse level? Not sure. But I won't come in here lambasting him, rolling my eyes, and saying he's wrong. How do I know that? I don't know either way!?
But I do think America is headed down a dark road. Full fledged Walking Dead-style apocalypse with Planet of the Apes overtones? Not so sure of that. But I can easily see us in armed insurrection civil unrest instability that could last months to years for sure. Let's just say my gun safe is growing all the time with both weapons and ammo. And when the moment arrives, my house will NOT be a good place to try to pillage! LOL
