The virue that our culture has made into a vice is chastity where as lust has become an icon. The culture of today has made sex seem okay at anytime even though it should be saved for love.

A virtue that has been made a vice is patience. No one can wait for something to happen, they all need it to happen right away in order for them to want it.

G.S 8th period

Our society has taken the vice of Lust and pretty much told us it was cool to lust after something or someone when it is not. Our get it when you want culture has twisted the virtue of temperence into an archaic belief that just doesn't work in our "modern" society.

WM P4

I think our culture has turned patience into something for people who don't want to get anything done. Everything is wanted yesterday and it needs to be cheap and fast. The vice that has turned into a virtue is greed, people are now glorified for wanting everything without doing anything. JP period 8.

I think our culture took chastity as a virtue and turned it into a vice. people think it's ok to have sex outside of marriage because our culture made it seem ok.

KB P4

Our culture has taken the virtue of modesty and chastity and turned it into the vice of lust. Saying that to not be chaste is good thing and its ok. Our culture has taken the vice of greed and turned it into a virtue of generosity by giving to the poor and helping those in need.

SH Period 4

Our Culture has turned Chasity into lust with pre-marital sex and has turned sloth into courage by fighting the war in Iraq *DG*

We have taken sex and made it into a virtue because it used to be a beautiful thing for man and woman but now its all bout internet porn sites, makeing people happy, and entertainment.Its just not right anymore.
S.P period 2

An example of how our culture has turned a virtue into a vice is with premarital sex. Our culture has taught us that premarital sex is ok. It's done this through what we watch, read, and hear in today's society. Society has not realized that this is wrong and that it demorilizes human dignity. Fortunatley, those who realized their wrong doing can turn to Christ and be pure through what is called "secondary virginity". Through this, we can devote our life to the right "one" and only one person AFTER going through the sacred bond of MARRIAGE.

R.K.

Our culture has taken the virtue of chastity and turned it into a vice by telling young people that its okay to have sex before marriage. But really they should be teaching us that you should save yourself for the one person you will marry.
