The more man freely chooses to sin and place his own truth above God’s truth, and the more sin becomes a habit and vice, the more man becomes enslaved to the fleeting goods of this world; he becomes bound to disordered love and constrained by disordered attachments. In this way sin establishes an addictive pattern that keeps men from conforming to the truth of their being. Herein lies the irony: a man becomes enslaved by the very same subjective and relativistic principles that he thinks makes him free. A man’s participation in pornography, masturbation, contraception, and his capitulation to greed and lust are just a few tangible examples of this reality. |
