[QUOTE="rambot, post: 72045609, member: 145797"] When did people stop caring about their own legacy? When did all these perpetrators of assault stop caring about what others would think of them, of what their children would hear of them, and what history may say of them? Our actions, every action we take is a legacy and every interaction we have with another person is our chance to leave a print on another human being. It appears that all too many people were under the impression that their misdeeds would never be revealed or that their actions were excusable. I personally don't know which. But either way, it sickens me. I don't think that this is a sign that the "world is moving away from God" at all. This nonsense has been happening for decades in the workplace (probably since women entered it in a meaningful way). I think, from a Christian perspective, it should be a sign post of how far we ALREADY are from God. And here we are with an opportunity to learn from all this garbage; a chance to reflect on the poisonous messages we are giving to coming generations. These messages that seem so innocuous, innocent and may even feel just...right. But it is those very messages that are excusing and exacerbating this kind of behaviour. Why don't we teach our kids about legacy anymore? I've seen enough bloody memes going through facebook about it; why aren't meaningful discussions being had about it? [/QUOTE]
