Listen to what a pastor in 1909 said about the end times - he really nailed it!
Luke 17:26–28: The prominent sin of the antediluvian, he reminds them, was sensuality in its varied forms. The torch of religious feeling will have waned in that unknown and possibly distant future when Messiah shall reappear, and will be burning with a pale, faint light. The bulk of mankind will be given up to a sensuality which the higher culture then generally reached will have been utterly powerless to check or even to modify. Men, just as in the days when the ark was building and Noah was preaching, as in the days when the dark cloud was gathering over the doomed cities of the plain and Abraham was praying, will be entirely given up to their pursuits, their pleasures, and their sins.
St Luke Vol. II. 1909 (H. D. M. Spence-Jones, Ed.). The Pulpit Commentary

Wow! He most certainly could have been talking about today. Just as a very small example, while waiting to see my GYN the other day, I decided to look at a Seventeen magazine.This is a mag geared towards teens (mostly girls).
In it were several articles ( that 20 years ago would never have been published....it might have been how do I know if this or that boy likes me and what should I do if I like him blah blah.)
Well the first one in todays 17 was So you and your girlfriend made out...where do you go from here?
Next was page after page of bios, photos, etc. of transgender teens. Almost to the last transgender teen said things like:
I am sooo happy I can be me and do whatever I want!!
All my friends don't have any problem with me be transgender etc etc etc. No before photos tho, only a big full page of each one as they are now. If it was a boy being a girl then he would be in full makeup, pink dress, heels, nails done etc. posing with a bunch of 'real' girls, and visa-versa for a girl being a boy. Soooo sad. I took the mag home so I could put it in the garbage.
