The Lunatics Are Running the Asylum  by Shaun Willcock




Dear friends

It seems like just the other day when the world was normal.
Oh, it was still a sinful world.  All men are born spiritually dead in sins.  But the world, or at least the western, once-Protestant world, was not abnormal, in the sense of glorifying what is unnatural.  Those behaviours and lifestyles which the Bible calls “vile affections”, “against nature”, etc. (Rom. 1:24-27), although always present in society, were loathed, never encouraged, never celebrated, and certainly never legalised. 
But we are now living in a world that seems to have sprung to life from a horrible nightmare.  A world where the lunatics have taken over the asylum, and are in the process of locking up the sane people, punishing them for opposing the lunatics’ lifestyles.  A world where, “as it was in the days of Noah” (Lk. 17:26), the wickedness of man is great in the earth, and every imagination of the thoughts of his heart is only evil continually (Gen. 6:5).  Abnormal is the new normal, and normal people are the new criminals.  Degraded immorality is the new morality.  This has been the deliberate tactic used, and it still is: to declare that they are the normal ones, and the rest of society is abnormal; that decent people are the indecent ones; that moral people are immoral; and that Christians are really unloving, hateful, intolerant bigots, who have to change – or face the consequences.  The asylum’s doors are slamming shut and being locked – but the ones on the inside are now the normal folk; and especially Christians.  Christians are branded as the vilest, most intolerant, most hate-filled, bigoted people on the face of the earth.
