press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre recently used a word that seems to have disappeared from our anything-goes culture.
In a relatively short time, we have moved from a president who had a sexual encounter with an intern in the to another president who steals classified documents from the American people and then lies about it to one that honors Pride Month for LGBTQ people, saying: “Transgender people are some of the bravest Americans I know.”
As John Adams, our second president, correctly observed: “Our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other. Morality and virtue are the foundation of our republic and necessary for a society to be free.” If that sort of behavior is not debauchery, what is? Debauchery is defined as “excessive indulgence in sensual pleasures; intemperance.” Could that describe the behavior of Montoya and others on theDecadence is another useful word for describing where we are headed as a culture and nation: “the act or process of falling into an inferior condition or state; deterioration; decay … moral degeneration … turpitude.
