More Wisdom from Deacon Harold Burke-Sivers

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.
