America’s New God
If it is possible purposely worship The Unknown God (Acts 17); is it possible to unknowingly worship a god? Considering we become like what we worship, it is becoming clearer America is moving away from Judeo/Christian religion; and for many, unknowingly they are worshiping pagan gods.
“The ancient gods were not particularly restrained in their sexual practices. Canaanite deities, for instance, were involved in incest and bestiality, as no doubt some of the Canaanite people were themselves engaged in these acts. Ancient gods were often involved in homosexual acts ranging in nature from casual encounters to extended homoerotic relationships between two gods. On the principle of imitatio dei one can only surmise that the people in some ways imitated their gods.” William J. Webb, Slaves, Women, and Homosexuality).
Doesn’t that sound like modern America? What was, is. America has unknowingly (and for some, knowingly) imitated and worshiped pagan idols.
