Older generation vs. younger generation
December 12 2017 By Abiodun Giwa
St. Michael in a fight for control against Devil.
I have a delightful 11 year old daughter in the house, who does not seem to know there are good or bad times and all times to her is a good time.
She has been through the junior police academy, she wants to be a Hollywood star and abhors anything outside stardom.
"Don't blame me dad. The fault is in the system that allows Satan to be in the world after his expulsion from heaven. And he rules the world and should be accountable for all the wrongs here, including mine," she said, following a question about an attitude she should not allow in her ways.
I know that my daughter is not alone, as often hear people talk about this generation's waywardness. But when you talk to some young people about this generation, they tell you that whatever the foundation that this generation is building upon has been laid by their predecessors. And that whatever the generation before this had built upon had been laid by the generation before them.
What has becmoe apparent is that as the world gets older, the more corrupt the system becomes. One distinguishing factor between thsi generation and the generation before them is that the generation before them have said they have been obedient to their parents and their elders and that this generation don't have respect for parents or elders.
Many of us don't share or believe in the sweeping assertion of condemnation aganist this generation. We say that many among this generation are bad, but that there are still some good apples in the rot. Christianity and Islam began far ahead of this generation. The intention of the early Catholic Chruch was not meant to have pedophile pastors, but many of the early pastors in Rome laid the foundation for the sexual abuse in the society and the eventual schism in the Church, and the eventual get rich at all cost by modern pastors.
Muhammed may have fought a Jihad to free himself from the the kings in the Arabia in his time, but his Jihad could not have been to turn young people into murderous onslaught agianst humanity. The Church no longer seem in a position to right the wrongs in the society as wealth acquistion and selfishness have taken over the attention of pastors, unlike the good example set by Christ for us to be our borthers' keepers.
With the Church's loss of direction and the Mosque's fall into the hands of the ISIS, though pious and true Moslems will tell you this is not true, lesser cults becoming attractive to young fellows in the society for the pursuit of wealth and protection from the vagris of a seemingly merciless world, a sincere and good fellow today is capable of turning into a hyena like individual anytime and no one will know it until the danger begin to steer the society in the face.
All the men who have been found abusing women sexually were not born to abuse women. It is the world they embrace the etho that to sexually abuse the woman is a form of strength and demonstration of strength. Politicians who have become turn coats and have turned civic duty into a way of getting rich were not born to be selfish and greedy. They see others in the garment of selfishness and greediness and receiving praises rather than condemnation.
The ISIS has become a direct and indirect influence on young people as instruments to destroy others. Imagine the New York's Monday terror attack by a man described by those who know him as much unexpected of him. No one should blame the social media in this, but the useless struggle among political elites around the world, and each seeking to enlist an army to do its bidding.
Political division has and its attendant deadly disagreements have become ways of life and they rule all major departments of life that are supposed to help ensure discpline in the society.
The journalist who needs freedom has the freedom taken away the day he signs to work for a publisher who himself or herself has sold the soul for a pot of potridge. Elected officials who are supposed to serve all citizens irrespective of political affliations only serve their political parties and selfish tendencies. Everyone want to be rich and no one wants to be poor. We are all pursuing wealth at all cost, but few are getting it.
Suddenly, the world has begun seeking a savior to safe it from a satanic generation, just like Americans sought a savior last election and they got Donald Trump, nothwithstanding the fight curenlty being fought by his adversaries to unseat him through the Russian collusion or no collusion nightmare.
There may be some truth in the scriptural notes that a savior will be coming to save the world from itself, because from the look of things, the world needs a savior and quickly too, before satan will destroy us all with everything here. Now, we don't know who represents the savior and who represents the devil between the old and the new generation.
