In describing the apostasy of Israel, God gave these words through the anonymous writer of Psalm 106:36-39: “They served their idols, which became a snare to them. They sacrificed their sons and their daughters to the demons; they poured out innocent blood of their sons and daughters, whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan, and the land was polluted with blood. Thus they became unclean by their acts, and played the whore in their deeds.”
In my own mind, I recognize in this description my own culture, 21st-Century America. True, worshiping idols has not become widespread. Wicca, Hinduism, and other pagan religions, both ancient and new, even the explicit worship of Satan, are spreading and becoming more visible, as they are mainstreamed by the broadcast media, such as the TV shows “Charmed” and “Supernatural.” These traditions are being mixed with fashion trends, such as the Goth movement. But they are still relatively small compared to the overall size of the American population.
On the other hand, the sacrifice of sons and daughters is far more companion than any explicit idolatry. Sixty million Americans were murdered in their mothers’ wombs between 1973 when the Supreme Court declared abortion a “constitutional right,” and the overturning of that decision in June of this year (2022). Why? For about 99% of abortions, it was merely for convenience: “A baby would interfere with my lifestyle.” Babies cost money, and parenthood interferes with an irresponsible lifestyle. Worst of all, a baby puts a block in a lifestyle of promiscuous sex. Thus we have both the prosperity and lasciviousness of the ancient human sacrifice cults.
America is a land soaked in innocent blood. There has never been, and can never be, a just accusation of a capital crime against an unborn child. The mere suggestion of it is specious. Among humankind since the Fall, there can never be true innocence, but there can be justice. And capital punishment for someone who has never committed a crime is not justice, but is itself a crime.

I am writing this just after the 2022 midterm elections, so I am thinking especially of leftwing candidates who campaigned on the protection of the supposed right to kill the innocent. I have tried to warn them that the blood of those innocents will testify against them in the judgment, but they don’t care. May God grant them repentance! Until then, if ever, the innocent blood drips from their hands and stains every word they speak or action they take. And God holds this nation accountable for not removing that evil from our civil government.
