Hi Bernd,
No problem, from experience with Adland formats that sometimes don't post what you wrote and you then have to start all over again, my more serious posts I prepare on word so that if a mishap occurs I HAVE A COPY!!!!!
So, I'll post again. Please don't delete it this time. :)

Hi Bernd,
It was a pleasure to read your reply.
Its sad but so true that we are in a downward spiral and it seems that you're convinced that there's no stopping the rapid decline and the inevitable ending. What makes it even worse is that we all know the demise of the great nations throughout history and have not learned from past mistakes (isn't that one of our worst "sins"?).
I wonder as I write these lines if that isn't the natural order of nature, if it isn't a cycle that can't be stopped. We become to comfortable and then lax in our behavior and actions. And the inevitable end is destruction of our culture as we know it and then start all over again from the start, Back to Basics. Personally I'd like to believe that we can change and revert back to a more normal or acceptable way of life.
I'm glad to see that we agree about the value of the home. Love is not only hugging our children. As I said in my previous post that it is our obligation to create an atmosphere where it is the norm that there are rules, regulations, boundaries etc. Those that ignore that and prefer being best friends with their children become in the end their worst nightmare c'os they didn't take the effort and instill in their children the proper values that will in most cases steer them to the right path in life.
There are so many other problems that concern me that I would like to discuss but I'll leave that for another post.
Best wishes my friend & Shalom,
Peter
