- In the Land of Anything Goes
-
I wonder if we are truly the land of the free or do we live in the land of anything goes? A society, at least a successful one, is one where there is a structure of laws and rules of acceptable and proper behavior. When we break down those restrictions we tumble head over heels into barbarism; into a land where anything goes.
People take their freedoms too far. It’s too the point where ‘freedom’ has become not a respect for the law but is instead a thorough disregard of it. It is the law that keeps us free. To remove the law again takes us back to the land of anything goes.
In this land of anything goes, we would be “free” to do as we will without regard to it’s consequences or fear of justice. We may take life as we feel. We may have sexual relations with whomever or whatever we want. We may mock anyone we choose no matter the consequences. We may destroy our bodies and the bodies of those around us for they are nothing but flesh. In the land of anything goes; life is cheap and is to be used for your own self pleasure. Nothing is too shocking. Nothing holds much value. It is but a tool to be used.
Acceptable and long held values of loyalty, devotion to family, worship of God, patriotism, courtesy and decency are going to fade away as our society crumbles and as anarchy assumes it control over us.
We must be worry here in America, for under the influence of socialists, anarchists and atheists, this nation is fast slipping from the land of the free into the land of anything goes. A land where barbarism will be the norm and the law will no longer exist. This is a land I do not wish to live in.
