Is America in Moral Decline? The Evidence Is Troubling
America is changing—and some of those changes raise difficult questions about the moral and cultural direction of the country.
In This Investigation, we examine some of the most troubling issues confronting American society: the changing American family, child sexual abuse and the exposure of children to adult content, the debate over sex and gender, abortion and the value of human life, drug addiction, and the decline of religious participation.
For generations, family, faith, responsibility and self-restraint played an important role in shaping American culture. Today, those institutions are under increasing pressure. The question isn’t whether America has ever been perfect. It hasn’t.
The question is whether the country is losing the moral foundation that helped hold its society together. We examine the evidence and ask a difficult question:
Is this simply social change—or are we witnessing the erosion of America’s moral foundation?
The video presents a perspective on these issues and encourages viewers to examine the evidence and reach their own conclusions.
