One of the most successful pop musicians of all time, Jimmy Buffet has gone on to meet his Maker. But, what about his pedestrian philosophy that has appealed so much to the masses? “Eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow we die.” What appeared to be light and happy-go-lucky turned out to be a life of hopelessness and despair. We discuss the Jimmy Buffett worldview of irresponsibility, escapism from reality, the capitulation to the bondage of sin, and the futile attempts to ignore or bypass the curse of sin placed upon man in the garden.

Is “The Chosen” TV series the greatest phenomenon of 21st-century Christianity? There have been over 500 million views of the series thus far. The Christian news sites erupted when Voddie Baucham suggested that the series was a 2nd-commandment violation. Do these pictures bias towards His humanity, and does that present an imbalanced view of the God-man, two-natures, distinct but not to be separated? What about picturing His deity? How does that violate the second commandment? We’re talking about 10% of the 10 commandments on this edition of Generations.

The worst economies in the world this year are Argentina, South Africa, Denmark, Finland, Germany, United Kingdom, Lithuania, Sweden, Czech Republic, Yemen, Chile, Estonia, Ukraine, and Sri Lanka, as reported by Yahoo Finance. Two-thirds of these—the worst economies—are Socialist, countries turning socialist . . . Woke Western countries. The worst states in the US are following the same pattern—Blue states and welfare states. People are moving out of these states to safer havens. Welfare programs are unbiblical and inevitably prove to corrupt the poor.

The most popular movie of the day is all about feminism and more fundamentally, self-determination. Sadly, Christian movie reviews and evangelicalism appear extremely confused on the issues that are most likely to destroy family, society, and their churches. Contrast the Barbie worldview with 2 Peter 3:1-5, 1 Timothy 2:8-15, and Titus 2:3-5, and what do you get? The death of manhood and womanhood is the death knell to society, and this film will help seal the deal.

The Roman Pope claims that the church’s view of slavery, homosexuality, and capital punishment are rightfully evolving depending on the social context (and whatever the world thinks is right at the time). We take a hard look at the 1978 PCUSA 60-page paper on homosexuality. Sadly, the apostate church has led the nations down to hell. The church was at the front of the pack and must take responsibility for the decline of the nations.

A guy on his last leg mentally represents the blue collar, grass roots of a nation pretty well—appealing more to Republicans and Christians than Democrats. This trailer-dwelling musician, Oliver Anthony bats about .600 on the problem, and .000 on the solution. So what’s the problem—the system or us? Where is the fear of God with a guy who manages to stuff eight expletives in one short piece?

Is this another good reason to attend college? World Magazine reports 240 universities, including Christian colleges, now sponsor e-sports programs—fake sports for gamers. Sports were supposed to be metaphor for warfare. Now, here is metaphor on metaphor, and people watch gamers play games! Avatar 1 and 2 are the first and third biggest blockbusters of all time. Video gaming, a $40 billion industry at the turn of the century, ballooned into a $260 billion industry by 2020, surpassing the music and movie industries by fifteen-fold (and the entire sports industry by more than double). It is the escape from God's reality.

The progress of the green religion is pretty impressive. They tend not to lose their political and cultural battles. Now cities in America have signed up for a program called C-40 intended to ban meat, dairy, and private vehicles by the year 2030. That includes: Austin, Boston, Chicago, Houston, Los Angeles, Miami, New Orleans, New York City, Philadelphia, Phoenix, Portland, San Francisco, Washington, D.C., and Seattle. This is the doctrine of demons, and the basis is preposterous—greenhouse emissions, the worship of scientism, and earth worship.

Incredibly, for the first time in modern history, more Americans favor homeschooling than those who favor public schooling. Sixty to seventy percent of Americans maintain a favorable perspective on homeschooling, but only 29% of Americans have confidence in public schools. More Republicans (74%) than Democrats (56%) or unaffliateds (62%) approve of homeschooling for children. Why such enthusiastic support? But what about the 18% of homeschooled kids who oppose homeschooling? We provide four reasons why homeschooling might turn bad.
