man minus God equals?

I regularly check the news online when I'm at work to get updates about news and events around the globe. Recently, I read about two articles that somewhat gave me a glimpse of what happens when you take God out of the school system, what happens when you take prayer out of school, replace creation with evolution. Now imagine if you can, third grades plotting to hurt their teacher, taking with them a knife, handcuffs and tape just because the teacher asked one of the students who was misbehaving to go the the "timeout table"...third graders. In Australia, teenagers attacking teachers and fellow students with baseball bats and machetes, sounds familiar? Remember Columbine? America, a nation I greatly admired, their constitution provided a framework, the foundation for governance. In God We Trust, A Nation under God, phrases, words we have read time and time again, written by their nations founders and forefathers. That foundation, the values and the belief that founded their great nation is slowly being taken out by Godless men in the name of political correctness. I am surprised that they are surprised whenever incidents like these happen. They shouldn't be. When you start teaching young children that they simply evolved from one celled animals to more "advance" forms like chimps, you can be sure they'll start "aping around" or basically act like animals. Why? Why woudn't they? There is no moral reason to act like humans, there is no good, who can tell me it's wrong to hurt or kill another person, I can do whatever I want. A world without God equals chaos and believe me we are already seeing the results of this equation. I take pride in the fact that I live in the only "Christian" nation in SouthEast Asia, I take pride in the knowledge that the top institutions of learning in the country have been started by Catholic priest who believed that God and academics go together if we are to properly train the next leaders of this nation. I just hope and pray that I don't wake up one day to find prayer banned from universities and evolution has replaced creationism as the de facto teaching. God help us all.
