The things described in this article are so ugly I hesitated at posting it. But we need to be aware of what's going on around us. It's very sad to see what's going on around us. So many people around us, especially the youth, are getting sucked into an immoral culture with absolutely no respect for human dignity or beauty of any kind.
But there IS an answer: a life of Catholic witness. There is such much goodness, so much happiness, so much greatness all around us that God is asking us to be a part of. Let's not be blind to that call, but joyfully show others the way to Christ and true peace. But in order to that, we have to cut this dark culture totally out of our lives, hearts, and minds.
In case you need a little motivation, or to remind yourself why this matters so much, please read this article.
Warning: I would not look for pictures or videos of what Cyrus did. I think we're all better off without that.

Jesus, help us to see any ways we are participating in the immoral culture around us, and inspire us to build a new culture based on justice, love, and true goodness. Grant us the ability to show others the beauty of a truly Christ-centered life. Amen.
