At This Pace, The Entire Human Race
Will Eventually Be Morally Retarded?

Edward Gibbon, the preeminent historian of the renaissance sat musing amidst the ruins of the old Grandeur of the once great Roman Capitol, while the barefoot friars sang their vespers in the Roman Temple of Jupiter, and wondered whether the fate of the Human Race would not mimic that of Rome. So, in other words, the idea of chronicling the crimes, follies, and calamities of mankind did not come to him from a thought vacuum. Soon thereafter he embarked upon writing the History of the Fall of the Roman Empire.
Arguably the greatest work ever written in the English language, Gibbon’s “”Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire”” is an open Veranda looking upon the procession of Rome symbolizing the fate of the human race if the corrosive and debilitating effect of immorality is left to wreak havoc in the social fabric of mankind!
Gibbon says that when faith declines, morality follows exponentially, and when that becomes deeply entrenched cerebral capacities falter and soon man fails to recognize the delineating lines between good and ill.
When you analyze these sentiments from a 21st century perspective and view the attached video with an eye on the history of the cause and effect of mankind's trials and tribulations, you can’t help but translate it into the following muse:
When Faith declines, moral values disintegrate. This is followed by a pervasive retarded sense of propriety, and that triggers a series of retarded behavioral patterns because everybody becomes morally retarded with no difference between participants and observers …
Finally the entire Human Race becomes absolutely retarded; morally, mentally, behaviorally; and that was the inscription etched on the milestone of the road that led to Rome!
