"It is just standard human nature and has always gone on."

Yes, it is called man's sinful nature which is at enmity with God. Does that mean because it comes naturally that we should not try to rise above it or that we should turn a blind eye to it?

I acknowledge that you call it that.
I never said we should ignore it or shouldn't try to rise above it. I said it is not a new phenomenon or a sign our culture is degenerating. It is and always has been the natural state of mankind.

As Solomon said, "there is nothing new under the sun." And while that is true, we are always finding ways to put new twists on old sins. It has never been flaunted so publicly before nor have people been so openly shameless....Nully and Prentice don't count. Besides, I don't think funkling falls under the 7 biggies.
