I was talking the other day to an old timer about the ills of our country and she mentioned something that isn't talked about much anymore. She was convinced that the slide started when prayer was removed from schools so many years ago.
Now, I don't know about that. Maybe she was right,maybe not. From my own recollections I remember the atheists saying years later as they fought to force God from the public square that morals won't change in this country. That even thinking of such a slippery slope was hogwash.
In fact, many assured me that the entire concept of a slippery slope logical argument was really a fallacy based on faulty logic. "How can you know what will happen in years from now if you do B today?" they screamed like wounded geese.
The postmodernists assured me that human nature was malleable and not absolute. They painted a utopia with unicorns and powered by fairy farts.
I'm not going to debate the issue about School prayer or if removing God from the public square was a good or bad thing.

However, I am going to present the current state of the USA as evidence that those that pushed

...the slippery slope logical argument were correct and that with hindsight it's clear as we look up at that slope from the bottom of the ditch we have fallen into, that slippery slopes are real and have a powerful "oh shit!" ending.
