In our day and age our culture is an ever changing event. I've come to see that as culture has progressed things have gotten worst in many ways. For example if we look back into 1932 we would find the horror genre in a multitude of many films of the quote on quote scary movies. One comes to mind of "The Mummy" which at the time was considered a scary movie. As statistics would show in that time culture in the America's were pro dominantly of Christian Origin. Now that being said from my research most of these films had to do either with Dracula, Mummy's, Frankenstein or of a creature origin. One of the most memorable films from the era would be "Dr Jeckll and Mr Hyde" in my opinion.

Now moving forward to the 1950's era we would find such films as "The War of the Worlds","House Of Wax","Tarantula","The Blob" to name a few. As we can see things have progressed to Aliens, and more creatures. So our fear level or resistance to what used to be feared has now been basically ineffective for the scare tactic. Things needed to be taken to the next step.


Now if we jump ahead yet again to one of the most prevalent horror movies of all time! "The Exorcist" released in 1973 was one of the most fearful movies of its time, it brought Demons to the horror genre. And that type of fear is still generated to this day. As shown by film history we could come to expect such films as "The Omen" released in 1976, "The Amityville Horror" released in 1979, "The Poltergeist" which was released in 1982. All of these films have brought many sequels to the table but in the end they all have a demonic origin.

And to current times we find Sex, Drugs, and Violence on our television sets and in our movies. We've gone from foolish animal monsters to things that should not be meddled with. We have taught ourselves to not fear things that are quiet real in the respects to demonic things.

So my question is why have we allowed our culture to change to such an extreme as these? And if we've gone this far in the last 60 years or so where will our perspective be in another 60? Where will our culture be?

But in closing, We as Christians must live our lives the best we can. Especially not to follow a flock of people who say this and that is the "IN" thing. We are called to live life the best we can by staying clear from these things.

Leviticus 20:26
You are to be holy to me [a] because I, the LORD, am holy, and I have set you apart from the nations to be my own
