We might ask why there is an increase in homosexuality today. The preoccupation with sex and self in our culture inadvertently empties relationships of meaning and commitment. In the absence of meaningful commitment, marriage for many people is unfulfilling and even pointless. Sex is the thing, and where sex is given this kind of priority, natural affections easily move to the unnatural. Inordinate sex drives, whether in heterosexual relationships or homosexual, are ruinous to marriage.
Love gives way to lust, and when lusts are followed, people inevitably get hurt.
Unisex trends are seen in simple things such as clothing styles and hairstyles, as well as in the more complex matter of male and female roles. Vile affection, in other words, is having its impact on society as a whole, not merely on a few perverted individuals. Focus on serving God and others as a means of fulfillment. Practice contentedness with regard to material things. Respect the authority of parents, including the counsel of grandparents.
