Re "The Slippery Slope". Came across this one years ago, and unfortunately seem to get daily reminders:

First we overlook evil.

Then we permit evil.

Then we legalize evil.

They we promote evil.

Then we celebrate evil.

Then we persecute those who still call it evil.

wow, exactly what we see, I was also noticing the fact that many today actively encourage the opposite of every one of the 10 commandments:

- no other gods, no graven images, no bowing down to other gods - god is banned from classrooms, court rooms, democrat conventions, while they openly encourage every other type of god.

- Remember the Sabbath, to be honest few people keep this one any more

- Honor father and mother - continually taking power away from parents and giving it to the state instead, and mocking fathers on TV all the time.

- No killing (abortion, euthanasia)

- no committing adultery (thriving porn industy).

- no stealing (democrats want to enact a wealth tax which is exactly stealing)

- no bearing false witness (seen much of this during the lawfare wars, and it is encouraged under the thinking "whatever it takes to win").

- no coveting (politicians regularly pit rich against poor which is fueling this very sin and turning it into a dangerous jealously, combining that with false witness by telling people the wealthy don't deserve to be wealthy, which only leads to communist revolutions).

The scary thing is people end up getting the government they deserve.
