Judicial activism changed the decency laws!
Even from the beginning on the Mayflower - the Mayflower pact, it reads:
"Having undertaken, for the glory of God, and advancement of the Christian faith, and honor of our King and Country, a voyage to plant the first colony in the northern parts of Virginia, do by these presents solemnly and mutually, in the presence of God, and one of another, covenant and combine our selves together into a civil body politic, for our better ordering and preservation and furtherance of the ends aforesaid; and by virtue hereof to enact, constitute, and frame such just and equal laws, ordinances, acts, constitutions and offices, from time to time, as shall be thought most meet and convenient for the general good of the Colony, unto which we promise all due submission and obedience."
And if you think Christ is going to turn a blind eye to unforgiven sin or to those that cause others to sin, when he returns and judges the world, you are severely mistaken! From Matthew 5:28
"... but I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart." Also in Jude 1:4 ESV "For certain people have crept in unnoticed who long ago were designated for this condemnation, ungodly people, who pervert the grace of our God into sensuality and deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ." And from Luke 17:1-37 "And he said to his disciples, “Temptations to sin are sure to come, but woe to the one through whom they come! It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck and he were cast into the sea ...".
What do you think Flynt's publications promote - family unity?
Do you think that Flynt's had a divine revelation on his death bed and repented for his sins? I hope so, but scripture also tell us in Hebrews 6:5 (since you say he was a Christian) that "It is impossible for those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, who have shared in the Holy Spirit, who have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the coming age— and then have fallen away—to be restored to repentance, because they themselves are crucifying the Son of God all over again and subjecting Him to open shame.…"
Clearly you didn't take history at Mississippi State.
The country was perfect and just in every way until the 60's?
Ever hear of the 1920's?
Do you know how many brothels this country had during Westward Expansion?
And if you want to talk documents of our founding fathers, pick people who actually had a hand in forming our government, not a small group of bad farmers that would later burn witches.
