The Bible predicts both our sinful nature and the Devil will inspire those in power to promote more sin (evil) to influence the populace. The populace will also demand it more, have more appetite, as they get more corrupt. Those are testable predictions easily confirmed by watching older and recent movies.

Here’s the patterns. For each sin, they start with either none of it (taboo) or tiny amounts. They gradually increase what sins they display, how often they do it, how vivid the depictions are, how extreme the depictions are, and how many sins are combined into one act or scene. They move most from something shocking to tolerated to cool. They gradually move them from R-rated toward shows or books for kids that encourage them to act that way.

As you read examples, ask two things: What inside of the majority of people drives them to enjoy more of this content? If these trends continue, what kind of people do they produce or behaviors do they reinforce?

Profanity. They used non-curse words, then some curse words, then more, and non-stop cursing. They especially like to use God’s or Jesus Christ’s name as a curse words.

Violence. It occurred in limited ways with non-graphic depictions. Then, they increased the gore, the amounts, the creativity the bad guys used, the rape, the torture, the dismemberment.

Revenge or killing culture. Movies often featured forms of justice with some revenge killing. While Christ is about forgiveness and restoration where possible, recent movies heavily promote solving problems by killing everyone involved or even peripherally connected. Then, more brutal ways of getting payback.

Idolatry. They’ve increasingly put long expositions of characters with polytheistic or person as god type of theologies. They reward subjectivism which drives many problems today. Hollywood also nearly universally censors the Gospel of Jesus Christ despite expositing everything else and a huge demand (1 billion customers) for Jesus.

Nudity/sex (people are objects). They started by increasing nudity: clothes, bathing suits, butts, breasts, frontal shots, and full nudity. Then, more porn like shots. Sex scenes increased: implied, visual with them covered, more nudity, longer scenes, and eventually like porn. They normalized sex with multiple partners and adultery, too, with likeable characters doing these things.

LGBT. They pushed from top-down to normalize an uncommon, unnatural behavior in people’s minds. They progression: sneaking characters in, making them openly say their attributes, couples, romance, sex. Now, the award criteria incentivizes them to always push LGBT characters in a way that makes them look better than others which encourages that behavior if people want special treatment. Kids in schools are already pretending for extra attention.

Damaging philosophies. I’ll restate this since it’s important. The movies heavily push subjectivism, evolution (we’re animals), multiverse, nothing really matters in the long run, pleasure chasing, exploitation, and expositions of racist philosophies (eg American History X). Righteousness and Jesus aren’t allowed. Many of the worst things we’ve read in the news are tied to the philosophies that get tons of screen time while the cure for that is censored.

So, yes, movies have grown more violent and sinful over the years. Each Biblical prediction, especially each sin, has been happening. It is by design. The effects are highly damaging since garbage in equals garbage out. People need to repent, vote with their wallets against sinful suppliers, and fill their minds with everything good and honorable instead.
