SOCIAL NETWORKING A ROADBLOCK TO HUMAN SEXUALITY
Social networking in its objective criticism has gone a long mile to aid in communication today, likewise to improve and quicken the race of learning, job opportunities and so on. With same acceleration too it has provided a fertile and well manured land in alteration of our natural and normal flow of our sexual activities.
Human sexuality: It is a current flow of our developmental process cutting across every stage or age of human experience. Each periodic age lists numerous characteristics, most often we smile or bemoan bitterly at our failures and successes respectively. At creation God left us with zero option other than accept our indispensible sexuality, he made man totally different from woman and conventionally left a vehement and magnetic attraction between the two. Our insistent admiration of the opposite sex flows or taps its originality from the initial establishment by God. The manifestation of this inward desire of another engenders at adolescence which remain a normalcy construe d in man from creation. Jacob desired Rachael though was deceived and denied of her, and have to serve for another eight years for her. The wild eyed urge though paddled by our reasoning most often propels and launchs us into relationship with the opposite sex. It is an act we cannot deny its necessity but it calls for a particular maturity when our strands and strides of our cerebral reasoning have developed to the climax of accomodating emotional fluctuation of feelings. A standard is expected in every relationship viz; purity prudence and prayer.
Social networking: That is the interactive part of human beings that allows interconnectivity of people very much easier irrespective of the distance, the pretty work of science of coming out fully made with social network has gone a greater heights and covered a maximum speed to reduce the cost imbued in communication, concurrently, allows one the less charge and low tariff tightly fixed in local and international calls. Further, it connects one with more than fifty friends at ago. The inevitability of social networking cannot be overemphasized as its underestimation lures one into the shores pessimism.
The road block: As we applaud the clarity at which science ameliorates and placates our cost of living, we then drive the opposite track of the earlier exaltation of same networking. I must not fail to bemoan and raise high my voice of tears at the intense acceleration of misuse and abuse of our social network. It is worth lamenting because our viable youths are covalently held by the web of addiction to this networking. They unknowingly fall prey to the traps of manipulation, sovereingty and surveillance of social networking. Their constant and steady homage to these various types of the networking makes fertile for the devils’ penetration, tentative operation and systematic application of his sickle in chase of a prey. He carefully articulates an enticing pornographic images and videos on your facebook wall. Your first sight invites the second sight at your pleasurable sight you are unknowingly masturbating. Our most popular 2go is not left out, girls upload their nudity as their display pictures and place a supermarket price of 100 naira recharge card for more of the pictures. These are influences of people on us, any justification on those who then sex chat, intermittently spicing the chat with pictures and voice notes. The haste we spit this stale taste of this evil of social network and give it a horse kick in our life the better for us.
Addiction to our social networking therefore goes a long way to alter and rechannel our normal flow of sexual life, most often stumbling into abnormal sexual pervasions like masturbation, lesbiansim, homosexuality and the rest of them. I must not fail to ascertain that 90 percent of girls to today are into masturbation while 80 percent of them delve into lesbiansim. While gay is gradually creeping into the door steps of men especially among boys living in dormitory. Victims of these acts actually are not aware of its sinful nature while some resort out of phobia of their opposite sex, some also wade into them as an effect of their activities in the social networking. All with no exception are evil against nature as they go in different direction to God’s earlier well structured plan for man.
He created Adam and Eve not Ada and Evelyn (lesbianism) or Adam and Evans (homosexuality). Leviticus 18vs22 pours more sand to our gospel. Non of these evils eludes side effects, masturbation leave its partner with these side effects according to doctor Lawrence Wilson: it depletes man’s or woman’s sexual fluid, hair loss, prostate enlargement, prostate cancer etc. The victim is not far from being antisocial because the sexual attention flows back to him or her. Homosexuality remains me of the destruction of the city of Sodom and Gomorrah, for men who stuck their fellow men with their sperm, tufikwa!!! may be he would arrest and crucify him for his infertility. Women who arouse their mates, they blame God of their gender. If you mark our iniquity, Lord who will stand before you?
This is an opportunity God wants to call us back to himself, a time of total reconciliation to God. A period he assures us of his steadfastness, of his mercy that endures forever. He invites us in Jeremiah 3vs12 to come back and he will wash us clean and restore the lost relationship. In prayer we strive to make pure our activities in the various social network, more especially minimizing the time we spend on them, careful eradication of our sex chat partner will go a long way to help in all God will never leave us orphans as He promised us.
