Are we doomed?

I was in Chicago over the weekend where I found myself face to face with a sea of naked people riding bicycles through the heart of the city.  I can't describe it except to say that it's probably the most depraved thing I've seen in a long time.

I get protesting.  I get that some people like being naked.  I also think that we used to have morals and community standards which prevented such displays from occurring.  The thing that strikes me about it is the lack of shame.  Some were only partially naked, but the vast majority were exposing things that used to be illegal to do in public.

I don't understand but then, again, I do.  The apostle Paul warned us about the world in which we live today in his letter to Timothy where he describes the last days.

I had to cross the street the parade of nudity went down to get back to my hotel and after the first glimpse of it, you become desensitized by it.  I wasn't gawking at naked people, but I was in literal shock at what I was just seeing.  I'm past the point of that now, and just wish I had never seen just how far we are fallen from God in our society.  

I'm happy to be home where such nonsense doesn't happen in my town.  I'm just mindful that unless we, as a country, as a people, don't start repenting, judgment is coming.  That scares me.
