Quote: American colleges and universities are hothouses of hypocrisy,
and the principal exhibit is that while their spokesmen talk
endlessly about their commitment to openness, tolerance,
critical thinking, diversity, and so on, many of them have
adopted policies designed to stifle the expression of unpopular
sentiments and empower certain groups to punish others for
having the temerity to speak their minds.

Australia along with all 'western nations', in these days, appear to be morphing into 3rd world nations.A True or False observation?
Lawlessness
Society-wide corruption [which our elected 'lawmakers' refuse to address] [through our abasement of integrity]
Society-wide violent crime [which our elected 'lawmakers' refuse to address] [through our abasement of integrity]
Many working people are [increasingly] unable to house and feed themselves, and are often unable to pay for their daily needs, from their wage
"A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious.
But it cannot survive treason from within.
An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly.
But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself.
For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men.
He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist.
A murderer is less to be feared.
The traitor is the carrier of the plague.
You have unbarred the gates of Rome to him."
- Marcus Tullius Cicero
Proverbs 17:13
Whoso rewardeth evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house.
"Glory follows virtue as if it were its shadow."
- Marcus Tullius Cicero, Roman Statesman
Isaiah 30:8
Now go, write it before them in a table, and note it in a book, that it may be for the time to come for ever and ever:
9 That this is a rebellious people, lying children, children that will not hear the law of the LORD:
10 Which say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Prophesy not unto us right things, speak unto us smooth things, prophesy deceits:
2 Chronicles 7:14
If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
And Australians may turn, and seek virtue.
And pigs might fly.

Psalms 91:4
He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.
5 Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;
6 Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
