Crime

From Bahai9

A deterioration in morality as exemplified by an appalling increaes of crime is most arresting aspect of decline in the fortunes of America[edit]

"America Passing Through Crisis

"Moreover, the country of which it forms a part is passing through a crisis which, in its spiritual, moral, social and political aspects, is of extreme seriousness—a seriousness which to a superficial observer is liable to be dangerously underestimated.

"The steady and alarming deterioration in the standard of morality as exemplified by the appalling increase of crime, by political corruption in ever widening and ever higher circles, by the loosening of the sacred ties of marriage, by the inordinate craving for pleasure and diversion, and by the marked and progressive slackening of parental control, is no doubt the most arresting and distressing aspect of the decline that has set in, and can be clearly perceived, in the fortunes of the entire nation."

(Shoghi Effendi, Citadel of Faith, p. 124)
