Virtue is not the talk of the town these days; in fact it is depicted in our culture as weak and useless. It is the butt of jokes. It is forgotten as part of a perceived bygone era filled with contempt and arrogance.

Mainly because we clutter our minds with all of our own desires so God's seem to be pushed aside.
