    Because so many other areas are so closely related... I am going to go with Ignorance... Of the Constitution, Of History, Of The Bible, Of Disciplining Skills, Of what our bodies are created for, Of how to resolve conflict... etc...

    It would be a really long list if all the problems centering on ignorance were highlighted.

    I'm going with mankind as well. We've became a little to big for our britches and we will fall. Not a matter of if, but when. Ask the Romans.

    Obama is just a mere shadowy figure of what we are fast becoming. The sound of trouble... not the trouble itself.

    Bro... You talking about this? (Ref: Roman 1 NKJV)

    Because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Professing to be wise, they became fools, 23 and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man—and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.

    24 Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, 25 who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

    26 For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. 27 Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.

    28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; 29 being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality,[c] wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers, 30 backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, 31 undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving,[d] unmerciful; 32 who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.

    Facitiously and rhetorically asked... but yes. Last we remember Nero was reputed to be :violin: as it burned to the ground around him. Probably a bit of hstorical revisioning there as well.

    I was thinking along these lines, my answer would be a lack of religion, which leads to a lack of a moral compass IMHO.

    Newt said:

    “The radical secular socialist machine “

    That would of course be the correct answer. That is the greatest threat to a constitutional America.

    Thanks for playing folks. The question has been answered.

    It's a shame the radical right wing cursed him, he was by far the most qualified.

    He was correct when he said "American people do not want social conservative policies". It's a shame the real leaders of the republican party made him take it back.
