“Then the LORD rained down burning sulfur on Sodom and Gomorrah—from the LORD out of the heavens. Thus he overthrew those cities and the entire plain, including all those living in the cities—and also the vegetation in the land.” That’s what the Genesis 19:24-25 tells us that happened when human beings deviated too much from saintliness in the ancient times. As a result, since then, Sodom and Gomorrah have been associated with sexual debauchery and by extension to all sinful activities that the human denizens of this planet can come up with.
  

      But on 2008 AD God has to be already pretty upset with us. Actually, by ancient standards I think HE has to be pretty pissed off. Let’s be honest, we have way surpassed Sodom and Gomorrah excesses in all conceivable ways. And not just in two cities. No, this time we extended the pinnacle of sinfulness into a global scale. Think of anything that’s explicitly forbidden by the heavens…and I can tell you for sure it’s on somewhere today on a daily basis. The last spill from that cup? Katy Perry and her song “I kissed a girl”. Homofobic anyone? Femalehood assertiveness maybe? Besides the song’s melody which I find pretty awesome, we have here a clear example of our modern times. Is it decadence, which I am sure all the puritanical bible- totters will rush to label or just that human race is finally becoming a grown up baby?
  

      Not only homosexuality is no longer repressed in our society, but we reached the point where it is actually becoming the latest craze to be sampled. After kissing a girl, “the taste of her cherry chop-stick” Perry tells us, made her feel good, not only good but in power and of course this doesn’t mean a hoot to her per se “Don’t mean I am in love tonight” she continues singing after openly confessing “It felt so wrong, it felt so right”. Did you had a chance to watch the video on YouTube? It’s awesome.
   

Maybe I’ve been living in my puritanical shell for too much time, but I sense another pre and post milestone in public deviance here. Here we have a successful commercial song that encourages us to go gay. Mmmm, grande, like the Italians would say. “But a lesbian kiss doesn’t mean to be gay necessarily” lots of people might be inclined to claim. Well, according to a social study done a couple of years ago, it’s not what you say but what you do. Incidentally, that study found that men performing occasional homosexual acts considered themselves ‘straight’.
   

    But wait, there is more. Woody Allen, l’enfant terrible of the U.S., just got in the bandwagon of the homosexually bonanza. Did you had a chance to watch Vicky Cristina Barcelona? With their three-some thematic I am sure French will love it –which probably is the required catalyst for foreign movies to get successful in Europe. But the transgression won’t stop there. Penelope, check. Scarlett, check. Developing photography both alone at night, check. Go, go, go watch it!
  

      Sorry for that detour, guys, I have to regain focus. Ok, so in the end, what Katy Perry song is actually telling us is that we reached that point where sexuality is actually blind, like Mrs. Justice, and is out there for you to go try it.
  

    But this time, in a twist with ancient times, God won’t punish us for it. There is not going to be a rain of brimstone or anything celestial going on. But how we know that? Well, we know it… first, because it didn’t happen inspire of what’s going on. And second, we know it because if in any case sulfur rains or whatever catastrophe happens –which, by the way it is happening constantly around the world- it will have a known cause. The supposed “punishment” won’t be out-of-nowhere and therefore won’t be closely associated with heaven’s chastisement. No, the times were sodomy and sinfulness triggered sulfur rainbows are gone forever. We have our brightest century awaiting ahead. Enjoy it.

Delicious, uh?
