We certainly
DO want young Christian men and young Christian women to form godly families and find a lifetime of joy in each other's arms through all the ups and downs of life which is God's will for humanity and which they are designed by God for.
And fortunately tens of millions of people are doing exactly that right now in this country (and in the country you live in wherever that may be).
But well... to be metaphorical, a serpent slithered into the garden and deceived a very large number of Eves in Western Civilization and now a very large number of Adams no longer want to court and marry them anymore and, in fact, are already quietly at war with both them and the system they created for them to live under not in word
but rather with their actions.
Try to understand the
scope. Here's one example:
hundreds of millions of children have, are, and will grow up apart from the benefit of a reasonable father present in their lives.
Given the enormous body of evidence that exists today for how negative this is to a child's formation and long-term well being,
one wonders why so many Christian women and men supported and continue to support such a nihilistic anti-biblical paradigm.
What are the consequences of raising a large percentage of an entire generation apart from their fathers? The first wave which passed through from the early 1980's to the early 1990's gave social scientists a wealth of new empirical data to study and their results clearly show that fatherlessness is not good for children nor society.
As the research report titled 'The Rise and Fall of American Youth violence: 1980 to 2000' states:
"Indeed, the United States experienced sharply growing rates of juvenile violence during the 1980's and early 1990s. If these trends had continued, it would have caused a national crisis. The number of juvenile arrests for Violent Index offenses (i.e., murder, forcible rape, robbery, and aggrevataed assault) grew 64 percent between 1980 and 1994. Juvenile arrests for murder jumped 99 percent during that time. The juvenile arrest rate for murder shot up 167 pcercent between 1984 and 1993 alone, from a rate of 5 arrests per 100,000 juveniles to 14 per 100,000."
^ The time period coincides exactly with the first wave of fatherless children produced by the "reforms" implemented by liberal and radical feminists. And, so do the demographics most heavily affected (e.g. African-Americans).
It was brought to heel with authoritarian societal controls that resulted in a quadrupling of the nation's prison system and nature taking its course with respect to aging. But percentage wise, that could be called a "love tap" compared to the percentage of fatherless projected to be born and raised in this nation.
Meaning, of course, that we're not going to simply read about it but observe and experience it first hand in the world around us for the die is already cast and it would take society itself to recast it to avoid whatever's coming.
