Jesus speaks of a "wicked generation" that defies and denies the good God.
So, is this generation dead, having died off when those individuals died?
We see an answer in another of his famous works, when he saves a woman from stoning. The people who were going to stone her all stopped.
They left, from OLDEST to YOUNGEST.
So, the "wicked generation" had nothing to do with age of individuals.
The "wicked generation" is instead a mind set that is presented to the generation, accepted by people of all ages.
Take Generation Xenophobe today. The Generation X people aren't lumped in together by age, but by adherence to the propaganda of the generation.
For those in Generation X timeline, it's to be born about 1965-1980. That doesn't make them adherents to the brainwashing of those years. GENERATION XENOPHOBE refers to the wicked generation of those who accepted the divisiveness, racism, bigotry, self righteousness, and chauvinism preached during those years, all culminating in the SUPERIORITY COMPLEX of being in any generation.
So, it means some people born in 1935 could be Generation X adherents, and members of the evil generation. It means some people born in 1976 could be rebels against that generation and have no part of the superiority complex of Generation Xenophobe.
So, all generations have a series of propaganda preached to them. The baby boomers also had the SUPERIORITY COMPLEX with their generation. All generations are like colonies of insects, heeding a spirit of some SUPERIORITY COMPLEX.
The same for THE GREATEST GENERATION, BABY BOOMERS, GENERATION X, GENERATION Y, etc.
All generations then are capable of being evil. What separates generations?
What separates generational evil is the dehumanizaiton of other people the judgment call that is unprovoked.
The greatest generation dealt with the inhumanity of Axis powers in charge. When one looks at the movies, books, articles, and History of that generation, one sees there was total acceptance of other human beings. Villages weren't massacred during WWII by Americans. Indeed, Americans tried to stop Asians from committing suicide. In Viet Nam, only the most stressful circumstances resulted in anything close to a massacre or tragedy.
Generation Baby Boomer saw protests for human rights, regardless of race. Color blindness has to be key when one is for human rights.
Generation Y has yet to really have the big voice. They're in the wings, watching.
Generation X is the voice speaking from 1990 in the arts, and from 2010 in positions of authority. The fact that Biden is from an older generation speaks much for the fear other generations have of Generation Xenophobe, and rightly so.
Generation Xenophobe is the only generation that has NO PROVOCATION for hate. They are the spoiled brats who have never experienced any problems, so this is a generation that felt the need to look for a problem, to fix what isn't broken.
Again, that doesn't mean people born 1965-1980. It means people who adhere to the preaching done towards that generation, to the education of that period.
That is what is meant by an evil generation. If you're born in that era, and you resist the brainwashing to hate other people without any provocation, you are indeed a forward thinking person. The Generation Xenophobe is trained to believe he or she is Sherlock Holmes, Columbo, Jessica Fletcher, Perry Mason, and Monk all rolled into one super sleuth, who can observe a photograph or video and know every single thing that ever happened on Earth. We see them post on internet quite often. For them, there is no need for trials, just go out and protest, be it in Minnesota or at the capital. All the same. All the same wicked generation.
Not one iota of difference between any of them. I hope the millenial generation will learn from the bigotry of Generation Xenophobe and be a wiser, more mature generation.

I am not familiar with the generation to which you refer. In an ancient era, the Prophets Of Madison Avenue issued proclamations foretelling of "The Pepsi Generation". I myself am numbered among that class.

I myself am numbered among that class. Even though Pepsi sucks and all Pepsi products suck, I'm willing to overlook the poor taste of the Pepsi generation. I wouldn't throw out my son for dating a girl from the Pepsi generation. Nor my daughter if she went out with a guy from the Pepsi generation. In fact, I even speak to some people from the Pepsi generation, and I allow them to live on my block, and I don't even ask the police to remove them from my block. I have great tolerance for them.

I can sense that you are embittered. Perhaps when you were young you were served a flat Mountain Dew or some Cheetos gone stale. Here, let our Shaman In Black raise your spirits.

The wicked generation will go away when nostalgia goes away. Are all people nostalgic only for wicked things? That's something I don't see often, though I have seen it. I've known people who want to be like the protestors of the sixties, and thus create things in their own minds to protest about. And people who want to be like the conservatives of the sixties, and rebel against the rebels. That could be a key, I suppose, to recognize "false Nostalgia". Some things were better. Some things weren't. KFC was not better then. It's better now. You couldn't get side dishes without nasty gravy over them in the old days. Pancakes were better then, because they were made from what we call "organic flour" today. Woodstock was a Hell on Earth. Terrible music, foul conditions, people dying and getting hurt. It wasn't peaceful. I've never met a "laid back peaceful pot smoker". The myths of Nostalgia can fill minds with false information, but is that enough to make an evil generation? Or were you just joking?

Maybe it's just an updated version of...the stiff-necked people Moses (I think) talked about in Deuteronomy.
Deut 31:27

Or were you just joking? My angle is that each generation has a tendency to look down on the successive ones, and reminisce about how much better things were when they were growing up. My grandparents looked down on rock music, and I think vocal music made with pitch correction sucks. And so on. Each parent generation views the successors as being more degenerate, lacking core values, in a nutshell wicked. Nostalgia is a key component of this. I don't think nostalgia is particularly bad except that it encourages a biased outlook: without nostalgia one can be more objective.

I just got finished saying the "generation" has nothing to do with the age, but with what is taught in a generation. What about that don't you understand? It's crystal clear. I even repeated it over and over. There's no need for you to change the subject of the thread into something that has nothing to do with the subject. This thread has absolutely nothing to do with Nostalgia. If you want a Nostalgia thread, make your own. No need to hijack an intelligent thread with a narrow minded idea.

Deut 31:27
It certainly doesn't refer to the age of the people. I do believe that's a big reason why it's referenced to in the way that different aged men participate in the attempt to stone the woman. "stiff necked" is something I wondered about for a long time. It supposedly begins with the livestock that are too stiff necked to be led into a proper place. When one thinks of livestock often being meant for slaughter, that could be negative, but some livestock wasn't meant for slaughter, but meant to be kept safe. So, "stiff necked" people appears to be people who refuse to follow the good God's leadership, and instead trust in the leadership of men who are not their "friends". That could certainly apply to almost all of the authority figures in the U.S. over the past 50 years. Teachers, politicians, even those in Medicine and Science are passed through the colleges for mercantile reasons instead of for being serious about their professions. If you've ever had "tests" made at a hospital or clinic, you'd know it was never doctors or RNs who found the reality of your condition, but instead those in smaller roles-technicians, assistants, radiologists. But how are people who are still in training days to know the reality? They believe authority figures, and pay the price of shortened lives and shortened health. So, "stiff necked" is a term with no relevance among the common people in a world where you can't possibly know who to trust. And the reason you can't possibly have any trust in anyone is because of the "wicked generation" being in stewardship. Still, "stiff necked" does apply to those who are in stewardship positions. In the days of Jesus, those were the clergy, but the clergy today are the weakest of the estates, and the least gifted with the least power. Who pays attention to the clergy? Today, the equivalent of the priests, scribes, Pharisees, and Sadducees are the other estates, the government, the press, the arts. Have you ever even seen an ad for a product being pitched by a member of the second estate? Today's "stiff necked leaders" are not the clergy, for sure. I don't even know anyone who respects anyone in the clergy. They're a meaningless group with no resources other than money.
And that does bespeak of a different type of generation. There's no doubt that divisiveness, racism, hatred, and prejudiced have been preached during the past 30 years or so. There are always people who follow bad advice. It's the "advice" given to a generation that makes an "evil generation". The "stiff necks" are those in authority, not those heeding the authority figures. The authority figures have stiff necks to avoid the prods meaning to take them into a safer world, and they in turn revolve those same prods to force the multitudes into the unsafe practices.

The wicked generation is the generation who go around calling other people wicked. Being called "wicked" is a meaningless gesture in Western culture. It's actual dehumanization that leads to all atrocities against other humans, which is why I put it: Being called "wicked" is compliment in the U.S.A. and anywhere else that adopts Western culture. That is the result of a "wicked generation" that praises the essence of being "wicked". I'd sure like for people on the street to tell everyone else I'm wicked. I could be elected to any office, wouldn't have to guard against sneak attacks, be respected like never before, all because of a reputation for having the most revered adjective of all to describe me. I take it that you can read, so you know that my original post clearly stated the "generation" that Jesus speaks about is not a generation denoted by age, because my entire fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth, tenth, eighteenth, nineteenth, twentieth, and closing paragraphs continually state that the "generation" is not dependent on when a person is born, but by what values a person has. "Wicked" is a value. It is not subjective. "Wicked" is "evil", and "evil" is an objective term, no matter how much a "wicked generation" wants to lie about that fact. "Evil" means quite clearly the abuse of other human beings. It can be subjective when animals are called into question, though I maintain that being cruel to animals is certainly "evil". So, your statement has no logic to it. Just because you want to believe something, that doesn't make it true. That's the difference between those of us who speak from objective observation, and those of you who just want to believe something because it's socially acceptable. One person can say that dehumanizing Jews and putting them into death camps is wicked, and a hundred people can say "oh, that one person is wicked for saying that the Nazis were wicked", and that doesn't make the hundred people correct just because they are all butt buddies.

Let me fix this, the wicked “generation” is the generation who go around calling other people wicked. And that generation would all of them. You used the prime example from the Bible yourself. I called absolutely no one wicked. Not one single soul. And I gave you every break, but even after reading my post where I continually state that over and over, and even gave the warning label: Unprovoked, and with absolutely no rational cause, you come up with that insane false accusation. I did not call you wicked, so it's unprovoked. I called no soul by name "wicked", so you have no logic, not one iota of foundation for your false accusation. I'm not even calling you "wicked" now, even though in our culture that's a compliment. You're just a sheep following the wicked generation. Your desire to throw stones for absolutely no reason proves how out of control you are.

Your desire to throw stones for absolutely no reason proves how out of control you are. You asked a question “what is a ‘wicked generation.’?” I answered it. No, you did not answer it. You just started making false accusations. I, on the other hand, stated the reality by definition, without making a single accusation against a single soul. You therefore fell into the trap that I really didn't intend for anyone to blunder into. I put it out for all to see.

Ah, the great humanitarianism and tolerance of Generation Xenophobe so well illustrated.
