The children of Israel again did that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh, and served the Baals, and the Ashtaroth, and the gods of Syria, and the gods of Sidon, and the gods of Moab, and the gods of the children of Ammon, and the gods of the Philistines; and they forsook Yahweh, and didn't serve him.
This very day, America is threatened with a total relapse into idolatry.  Oh yes, the old idols of antiquity are no longer visible, but the drunkards of our era are worshipping Bacchus no less than did the ancient citizens of Crete; and our sex-mad generation is worshipping Aphrodite Pan Demos no less than the wicked inhabitants of Corinth at the top of their Acro Corinthus; and the diabolical leaders of Communistic tyranny all over the world, such as the evil masters of Cuba, China, and Russia (until recently), these evil denizens, are worshipping Mars (the God of War) no less than did the ancient Romans.
