Absolutely!  Out of wedlock births are commonplace and no longer looked down upon.  Few people are civil anymore.  "Please and Thank You" have all but disappeared.  And most people are too lazy to use their turn signals!  And how about cell phones?  There is absolutely NO social behavior when it comes to cell phone use.  We have become cruder, (listen to the language used by teens and young adults) more vulgar, (just look at how young people dress) and certainly ruder. It is so sad but so inevitable given the sorry state of our educational system.

Did he mention how the universities are indoctinating tuition paying students into a belief system that suits their political agenda.

How about how the school system is enforcing tolerance issues more so then reading writing and arithmatic.

Then we have a court system that does not give our children equal rights under the law.  Miranda rights can be waived if the interrogator gets the child to say he does not want a parent present.  How easy is that to do?

May as well add how "Freedom of Speech" has been manipulated by twisted individuals thus allowing them to use thug tactics to intimidate anyone who has a different viewpoint.  For example: protesting a soldiers funeral and students at a university who don't agree with a speaker.

Yes, social behaviors standards sure have crumbled in our country but it all starts with forced political agendas and public manipulation that is used to control the masses.

Social behavioral standards have been deteriorating for years...and will continue to do so at even a faster pace with all of the technology out there. The more tech driven this country becomes the less direct inerraction people actually have with each other. Technology is great but society needs to be mix with human interaction as well.

That relies upon on the kind you define faith. as nicely, only because of the fact faith could be used as a "societal gadget for controlling social habit" that does no longer mean it extremely is not something extra beneficial than that. that would desire to be like asserting if a man or woman is killed with a blow to the pinnacle from a frying pan, that would desire to intend frying pans are no longer something extra beneficial than a homicide weapon,
