"The pursuit of pleasure and amusement centers in the cities.
The cities of today are fast becoming like Sodom and Gomorrah.
The many holidays encourage idleness. The exciting sports—theater-going, horse-racing, gambling, liquor-drinking, and reveling—stimulate every passion to intense activity. 
The youth are swept away by the popular current.
When God's restraining hand is removed, the destroyer begins his work. Then in our cities the greatest calamities will come. Death will come in all places."
E.G.W.
