What bothers me is not so much the decay of religion in society, but the absence of a substitute for moral guidance. One need not be a Christian to know right from wrong, but one needs to know right from wrong. Increasingly, we as a society don't. Political forces, in their zest to set aside religious institutions, are the prime culprits in the trashing of ethical behavior in this country.

Religeon is still widespread in our public schools (I'm in a position to know.) Many people wear bracelets that say W.W.J.D. (What Would Jesus Do) and this is considered very normal. There are also other religeons present - I once had a conversation with a Bhuddist vegan about the role of hell in religeous beliefs. No one is a devil worshipper that I know of. Most of those people that adults think are satanists are usually referred to as "Goths." They're mostly harmless, just . . . different. FYI, I once met someone with their navel pierced six times. I don't call that sadistic, do you?
