Motels carry in-room, on demand, pornographic movies. Magazines that used to be kept under the drug store counter now stand boldly beside convenience store checkout stands. Adultery is winked at. Infidelity is joked about. Pre-marital virginity is considered quaint.
Some temptations are bold, some subtle.
All are snares waiting to trap the unwary. In this kind of environment it is easy to give in. Much virtue, over the years, has been predicated on the absence of opportunity and the new availability of temptation has exposed our threadbare commitment. We find ourselves seemingly marooned on our own Temptation Island with no means of escape. But there is hope.
