Is society lacking morals?
I seriously feel like people lack morals and values. I am 21
years old and from my experiences, I would say that morality has definitely broken down. Just watch TV, listen to modern music, research the messages modern media gives to young people and it's not hard to understand why. It is not uncommon for people to have many sexual partners, often even partners that share the same friendship group. People are taking drugs at a higher rate than before, people are engaging in unprotected sex with people they only met a couple of hours ago, lie, kill, and deceive people and think nothing of it. Americans in the 15 to 24-year-old age group account for about 50% of all new STD cases each year. I don't know whether this is because they actively decide to do wrong, or whether it has simply become the norm and is accepted that this is how life is. Also the mental make-up of people nowadays is all over the place, I know from work experience that a lot of people suffer from depression, confusion, drug and alcohol addiction, mental disorders, and conflicting emotions, as well as a bunch of other things. Is it just me or does anyone else believe that relationships lack commitment and trust? The marriage rate in the U.S has fallen to an all-time low. Right now it is sitting at a yearly rate of about 6.8 marriages per 1000 people and America has the highest divorce rate in the world by a good margin. Society has become fickle and shallow, where quick fixes and quick thrills seem to be all the rage, instead of appreciating longevity and hard work, which will have lasting positive results and looking into life from a deeper perspective.What's your opinion?
