Where have all the morals gone . . .

As most people have heard by now, the United States has been 'blessed' with a politician who seemed to enjoy sending obscene pictures of himself near and far. He finally resigned, today, under pressure. I found his attitude and acts disgusting.

What I found really reprehensible were all the sites that posted pictures of this person's anatomy. The talk shows bragged about how 'awful' the pictures were and you can go right to our home page to view them. Personally, if I admit disgust, I certainly do not want to actually see what all the disgust is about yet people have flooded the various posts to see what most of them condemned. Why?

Even worse are the people who say the guy was still a good politician and what he did in private was his own business. What about his lying about it? I know that the majority of politician are pretty good liars but this guy had the stupidity to prove it. And didn't we have a president who descecrated in real time the office of the presidency . . . and was forgiven. Where have all the morals gone?

Even if one isn't a Christian/Catholic, the Ten Commandments are a great list for keeping yourself on the straight and narrow. They aren't exactly easy but they aren't so difficult that they couldn't be used in our lives. Morality has certainly taken a step back in order for people to find themselves, so each individual can be all they can be, and ignore morality as it inhibits one from enjoying their sexuality.

Interesting how women defend lax morality so vehemently when they have lost so much to the proposed freedom. Women downplay respect and then wonder why they actually do not get much respect.

I have daughters and pray they never fall prey to the current outlook of the world. I'm tired of seeing pregnant brides getting married in white dresses, high schools providing daycare for teenage mothers who haven't finished high school, and first dates expected to end up in bed. Women can rule the world once they go back to demanding respect and respecting the use of one word . . . No! A negative response in the right situations can bring out the positive and good in life.

Just my rant for the day!
