Why Has Morality Been Thrown To The Dogs? by ucyoma(m): 11:59pm On Nov 26, 2013
Why has morality been thrown to the dogs?
Dressing to flaunt the breast and “backside” is now a norm amongst ladies- yet they complain of sexual harassment. What an irony!! It’s quite puzzling and at d same time appalling that our mothers who should be in the forefront fighting this have joined the league
No premium is placed on maiden-head (virginity anymore) which used to be an inestimable and priceless virtue of every African maiden. In fact it’s now totally alien to us
Upholding the sanctity of morality no longer means anything to us, our parents and most regrettably our clerics who no longer make out time to instil moral fears in us through admonitions and sermons. But rather, offerings, tithes, seed-sowing and prophet seed mean more to them than the salvation of their congregation.
It is now a norm amongst our women to go to church half-nude with the “immoral” justification that God looks at the heart and not body. Chai!! What are our clerics doing that they cannot correct this false impression by reminding them that our body is the temple of the MOST HIGH and as such must be kept sacred? Sorry, did i just say our clerics should remind them of the truth? Do i want them to lose their gullible members and the huge offerings, tithes, prophet seeds that follow? No nah!, no pastor would want to lose his members to his closest business rival who will be ever willing and ready to tell the gullible member what he or she wants to hear(YOU WILL BUY AN AIRCRAFT NEXT WEEK!!), hence the need to conceal the truth.
Sometimes i get this feeling that the current ill-happenings (undue poverty, penury, political and religious crisis) befalling us could just be the expression of Gods indignation upon us for turning our back on HIM, concealing the truth and subscribing to immorality and evil.

Do we rather go back to our old tradition and custom where death penalty awaits anyone who indulges in any form of heinous immoral act (the fear of death might just make many of us amend our ways)? Or could forming a synergy by calling for and holding national prayers for God to salvage our nation be the way out?
But whatever the bailout might be, it begins with you asking yourself this question, ARE MY WAYS RIGTH AND PURE BEFORE THE LORD If NO, please amend your ways!!!

Dressing to flaunt the bosom and “backside” is now a norm amongst ladies- yet they complain of intimate harassment.
I read that and stopped knowing that someone who can write this can't make sense in the same write up.

So does the fact that I flaunt money justify a robber coming to my house to steal it?

Or because I show off with my expensive phone it deserve to be stolen?
