When I wrote this text I was pretty depressed! If my memories are good, I had just seen stupid stuff on the internet (facedakar, smh), people acting silly and not thinking about the consequences of their actions! It was a tough day for me because I just could not understand how people could be that irresponsible.
Is my fear justified? Am I going to perish for the unhealthy and unorthodox acts of the sinners? Why should I be afraid of being yelled at, judged, or insulted for saying the truth? After all “I don’t give them hell. I tell them the truth and they think it is hell”.
It is so unfair to us, good people, to be categorized and associated to those bitches, hoes, “wangsters” and thugs, in a nutshell, to those sinners (Excuse my French). Those scoundrels that make us feel guilty of being good! Those miscreants who think things they don’t say and say things they don’t think, those mischief-makers who can lower one’s self-esteem just by being themselves! They confuse those whose beliefs and values are shaky and swayed. They comfort those whose beliefs and values are shady and ruthless. And last but not least, they oppress those whose beliefs and values are steady and noble.
They make me sad, they make me cry, they make me fear my future, they make me dread the progeny I don’t even know I’m going to have or not. They make me doubt. Those evil minds make me mad. They make me sick. But what they don’t know is that by making me frailer, they make my Faith grow stronger. They make me remember that even when I’m down, He’s going to help me up, because I am not one of “them”. They make me remember that I have something to hold on to. They make me cling to my Faith, they make me cleave to my Religion; and I embrace Islam and grasp at it not only with my hands but with my mouth, nose, face, fore-arms, head, ears, feet, knees and fore-head.
Nevertheless, “A half-truth is a whole lie.” Yes I pray, but to be completely honest since “Honesty is the first chapter in the book of wisdom” (Thomas Jefferson), I do not do it all the time. Does that make me one of them? I don’t know, but I am 99% sure that it does not. I am not perfect and I don’t have to judge ANYONE, but I cannot live without expressing my despair regarding this matter.

I know what you mean,
Today we live in a world where we are constantly exposed to shamelessness, in such a way that we have become desensitized to it.
Anti-values have become people's core values, and this is where the Shaitan succeeds.
To me, It's a deep spiritual problem amongst young people especially, who are over influenced by music and tv.
Your fear is more than justified. It's just a sign you haven't been corrupted yet.
