And if you think about it, So this idea, because it's kind of curious, if you listen to the lyrics, right, what is essentially this individual going through? This idea of the passion, the lust, the girl was bad, right? The girl was dangerous, it says.
And if you think about it, right, this idea of danger, we are in a very dangerous, precarious spot right now in the world that we exist in.
And I say that because if we look around Well, what are we filled with? What is our world essentially filled with, right? It is passion, lust, all of the materialism, all of the vanity, all of the hedonism, all of the everything.
And we start looking around at the way that this is manifesting itself.
There's a lot of people that are running towards essentially those base instincts.
The reasons, of course, that they're doing so, because they're primitive.
This idea, why is that dangerous? Well, because there's obviously a higher power, a higher calling, a higher everything if we are willing to essentially to avoid the danger, to avoid that which is basic and to seek that which is, of course, coming from the higher source, the higher power, the higher everything.
So when I was sitting there, I was actually listening to that song.
I do have a soft spot for Michael Jackson.
And I thought to myself, boy, doesn't this feel emblematic of everything that we face right now in this window? You walk down the street, you turn on your smartphone, you open up X, and obviously we've got the dangers, according to the technocrats, that are the posts that I make that they will label as hateful conduct.
Because they're uncomfortable statistics, right? That we can't have.
Kanye West, even in his, let's say, his tirade, right, he put out literal pornography onto X just to demonstrate that he could do it.
And I certainly don't condone that.
That was awful, right? We should not ever celebrate that.
But this idea that we have a technology now where even a little child can open up a device and have the entire world worth of sin at their fingertips, things that just a little while ago nobody would have had access to.
Right.
And yet now they are at every single corner.
And I say this because we essentially as a result of that, we need to figure out, well, how do we essentially avoid that? How do we aspire for more? And curiously, if we think through that, one of the ways that I think we ultimately get there is by first and foremost recognizing, well, that we can, of course, have it, right? And that is why the powers that be, I'm sure everybody saw this terrible video that just came out today of this beautiful cathedral burning to the ground.
And not only is it being forced onto the timeline, right? This is the inverse of the lust, right? right? The inverse of the girl that was bad and was dangerous, right? This is instead the danger that essentially comes from us not believing that there could be something better tomorrow, right? So on one hand, you've got sin, you've got lust, you've got all the things that they push out with only fans and porn hub and youtube and your pantry with all of the sugars and the chocolates and all of the other things that are essentially, well, what are they? They are the dangers.
They are the dangerous.
Right? We need to avoid those things because otherwise we follow Michael Jackson down this song, right? Which is suggesting that, that, that this came to him, right? He was overcome with the desires for it.
We see that at every turn and we also see the demoralization that is the flip side of the temptation.
So you get the carrot on one side, the big shiny item, come get the materialism and the Ferrari and all these other things.
