The slide into paganism, which is the total abandonment of the LORD God and the embracing of false gods, is much more than throwing out the moral law of God. The strategy of Satan is to change what we believe, and at the same time to change the very way we reason and think. The heart must be corrupted, and the mind must be corrupted, also. Good becomes evil and evil becomes good, but then rational thinking is abandoned and replaced with insanity on a national or even world-wide scale. All anyone has to do to know this is true is simply look around at what the world has become.
