According to Imam, why the Western societies had been plunged into social and moral decline?

Imam believed that the Western societies had been plunged into social and moral decline because they ignored spirituality and human values. Imam used to say: Do not think that the westerners have progressed. They have advanced materially, but they have no spirituality. Islam and other divine schools of thought seek to perfect and construct true human beings, but the West has nothing to do with this matter. The West has discovered natural resources and natural power while using them against human beings. The West uses these powers to destroy cities, countries and even humanity.
