The Pain of the Soul

In our society, we're witnessing the decline of conscience. It's concurrent with the unfashionability and political incorrectness of a certain traditional belief. Doesn't anybody see a connection?

If you subscribe to this traditional belief, you are immediately stereotyped as a wild-eyed fanatic, and worse, just for believing the same message that's been accepted by millions for centuries. Yet, exactly concurrent with today's declining conscience and subsequent increase in crime, hate, unethical behavior and apathy, has been the public trashing of this traditional faith. I say again, doesn't anyone see a connection? The only group that it's actually "politically correct" to hate is the group that still holds this traditional belief.

Guilt has become something to be purged at all cost. But guilt is like pain, only for the soul. If you deaden all pain, sooner or later you'll lean against a hot stove and burn off your fingers. If you deaden all guilt, you'll eventually find the rest of your body in a similar situation.
