Egoism, Consumerism, Lifeism

What is to be expected from a culture where the court jesters are the moral leaders? The stars we look to for guidance and exemplary conduct. It used to the other way around, that they existed only to please, and we had moral leaders. 

Drinkers, drug abusers, egosts, fornicators and adulterers have become our examples of shiny conduct.

Perhaps the moral – or spiritual – revolution is not far away? When values will be based on who you are and how you do. Instead of what you do or what you are – or how you look.

In our time we seek entertainment from media showing gladiators and mavericks. Lone fighters who show courage and lead – who fight evil. We are drawn to this because it is fiction. It doesn’t really happen but we want it to happen. We want someone to step forth, defeat the monster, and win the girl.

We all desire for moral revolution. We desire content and thought. We yearn for a reason. Modern consumeristic society, void of valid reason for living, is in decay and despair. The masses have no spiritual and moral guidance, and they feel it. Like a traveler in a desert, consumed by thirst.
