Pastor John MacArthur Makes Sense of COVID-19 Abuses, Abortion, America's 'Moral Free-Fall'
[PJ] Earlier this month, San Diego, Calif., experienced a COVID-19 outbreak and fell back to the most severe tier of the state’s coronavirus restrictions. This meant that schools, restaurants, museums, retail businesses, and even churches would close — but for some reason, strip clubs were allowed to remain open. Grace Community Church Pastor John MacArthur made sense of this bizarre scenario by explaining America’s "moral free-fall."

"America is in a moral free-fall," he told Fox News’ Laura Ingraham on Thursday.

"Just look at it as I would as a pastor," MacArthur began. "You murder the babies in the womb. If they survive the womb, you try to seduce them into transgender sexual deviation when they’re young. If they survive that, you corrupt them with a godless education. If they survive that, you have divorce in the family and if they grow to be adults, you drown them in a sea of pornography."

"This is a nation so far down in the sewer of immorality and wickedness that nothing surprises me," the pastor continued. "In fact, I would be shocked if a judge said, ’Open all the churches and close all the strip clubs.'"

A recent Los Angeles Times story accused MacArthur’s church of enabling an outbreak, but MacArthur explained the real story. As it turns out, three part-time security guards at GCC had tested positive for COVID-19 unrelated to their work duties but had no symptoms. They returned to work within a few days. Los Angeles County cleared the church of responsibility for any such "outbreak."

MacArthur has long fought excessive COVID-19 restrictions and their double standards against churches. He warned that power-hungry politicians have blown the coronavirus pandemic out of proportion.

#1 Interesting, but no pulpit confirmation was actually required. We've been observing the "freefall" for decades. The real quandary is exactly what can be done about it ?

#2 Morality starts with an individual commitment to act morally. There is actually lots of that going on, though mostly people don’t trumpet becoming one of the good guys.
