“There is no more evident sign that anyone is a saint and of the number of the elect than to see him leading a good life and at the same time a prey to desolation, suffering, and trials.”

                             ~St. Aloysius Gonzaga

 

For Reflection:

When I am desolate, suffering, or enduring a trial, would my interior and exterior life show that I should be counted among the elect? If not, what needs to be amended?

It could be viewed any time of day or night and the types of pornography available seemed endless. Since there is no way to monitor who was viewing internet pornography, there was no way to protect children from it. This made obscenity laws almost obsolete. No one was protected. Porn became mainstreamed (Carnes 2007, Dines 2010, Struthers 2009).
