I recently read a book by Glenn Beck. Most of it I did not really understand. It was about the economy and threw around a lot of figures and charts. One thing was clear that our country has accumulated a great deal of debt. On both sides of the aisle.
One part dealt with religion. As a society, we are trying to chunk religion to the side. I do not think we can force religion on anyone. However, without religion in people what is there? Beck makes a point about if religion is not there then something will fill that void. His point (and granted his quote is better) is that it will not be good.
Faith is a moderator or probably better than that term. It improves us. Left to ourselves we would be in a sad state.
The question for us is what fills us? Faith in things that do not last or in someone who has been around a long time...eternity.
