I wonder made people so hardened. maybe the movies? I'm not sure.
I think that's why XUPC churches and non denom. churches like warran and Osteen are preaching the Doc Phil 12 step program type sermons.

I made the statement to a group of young ministers a month or so ago that not only did the previous 15 years or so bring an overall desensitization to the America and the church, that desensitization has now led to indifference.
Not only do people not feel anything anymore, they do not care that they do not feel anything anymore. Now self-justification runs rampant and like James said "They forget what manner of man they saw in the mirror. Desensitization that leads to indifference is one step from extinction, IMHO.
