What Happened?

by Zeke Flores

It used to be that we called things by what they were:

• What used to be called lazy is now called "finding myself."
• What used to be called modest is now called "old fashioned."
• What used to be called indecent is now called "adult."
• What used to be called irresponsible is now called "living free."
• What used to be called chastity is now called "uptight."
• What used to be called a perversion is now called "an alternative lifestyle."
• What used to be called self-indulgence is now called "self-fulfillment."

"Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who substitute darkness for light and light for darkness; Who substitute bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter!" (Isaiah 5:20).
