1965 summarizes modern times. 1965 mind you over fifty years ago summarized 2016 and the entirety of the 21st century.

That's...unsettling.
As a human being, naturally I'd rise up to say "Stop spouting that madness, this is the devil for Pete's sake, quiet down and stop messing with the goodness of the world!" But this, this is something that needs to be said.
We need to change, we needed to change a long time ago, but that opportunity's long gone. We're dead, our kids are dead, the rest of the planet is dead, and it's our fault. Maybe we're the next mass extinction, the next K-T Boundary, maybe the end of life totally. Or it doesn't matter, and we'll die off due to some mass virus that only affects humans and the animals and plants will be fine. Sure, we'll leave behind some strange architecture, but other than that...
In any case, it's all downhill from here.
This guy said so many things that are absolutely stupid, so I'll just say the one that is the shortest for me to explain.
This United States of America was founded on religous freedom, and with a government free from religion. There is not supposed to be religion in school or government.
3669904 You forget that this country was also built by men of religious belief and prayed before signing the declaration of independence. You also forget this speech was recorded in the mid 60's by Paul Harvey. I'm sorry it wasn't corrected by the modern liberals you listen to every day but this here's what many believe to be an accurate summarization of modern times.
Religion aside he's also talking of things such as corruption in the law and government. You think that is stupid? Right, sorry, it reminds you too much of the real world doesn't it? You wanna stay in your fantasy world creates by modern socialism where everything is peachy! What about when he talks about school education and how schools are becoming more dangerous due to shootings and drug deals done by youths. You think that's stupid? You know this is the truth, but you want to stay in your fantasy land where none of this exists and all that exists is love and equality for everybody. Well, too bad because this here's the truth fella.

No, I didn't. Please actually read this.
This is why I don't like to comment on things like this; people try to put words in my mouth.
I said "so many things", not everything. I actually share his view on the corruption of law and government.
School violence is actually steadily decreasing, not increasing. It may have been increasing back in '65, but it isn't today.
And just so you know, I don't call myself liberal or conservative, democrat or republican. I just have what I believe.
3671570 Okay, my mistake and I apologize for that.
However if you meant "Not Everything" then why didn't you establish that fact and let whoever read your comment assume you meant everything along with the religious bits. Not just me, but people can assume you were talking about the other topics such as political corruption and crimes in school. I'm not saying you need to spell it out for people before they make an ass of themselves like I did, unfortunately, but at least, mention the things you agree on political corruption and school crimes.
Other than that I see where you're coming from, and I apologize for what I said.

It's alright, I realize I could have worded it better.
I just wanted to comment on what was the easiest for me to explain, or there would be a verry long comment from me; I don't like to post overly long comments.
