Lemming Behavior-Alive and Well

By

Nothing ruins a culture faster than human beings acting like lemmings. That has been going on for a long time in America. Presently, lemming behavior is alive and well. It has increased greatly during the past five years alone. Some examples will be given in paragraph three.

The fact that at least five lemming type behaviors are going on at once now in America is very culturally ruinous. Lemming behavior seems to catch on quickly in modern Americans times.

For those who do not know, a lemming is a small rat-like animal that copies their destruction in very large numbers. Let us translate that to human beings. If a certain idea or action originates and becomes routine casual behavior without thinking about it because others are doing it, that means people are exhibiting lemming type behavior and acting like lemming. Here are five obvious examples:

1. Spiked Hair-that ugly hair style that makes men, especially, look like a porcupine. It is quite unflattering and indicates zero brainpower.
2. Teen-age Male Dress-when the trousers are cut off at the calf, and the crotch droops to near knee level, and the beltless trousers are showing the upper part of the bare rear-end. It is disgusting.
3. Half Exposed Female Breasts and Excessive Cleavage-this is the popular manner of dress among young and older women in America. (It is not accepted among mature women and thankfully so.) This popular manner of dress is very immodest and immoral. It is excessively titillating.
4. Skin-Tight Female Jeans-this also widespread throughout American culture, and it is also immodest and offensive. It is excessively titillating, also.
5. Tattoos-that decorate men´s (and some women´s) bodies and causes the individual to look a circus animal. It is extremely ugly and is a gross misuse of how God wants us to treat our bodies. At age twenty it´s cool. At age thirty what did I do? After thirty how can I get rid of the tattoos?

Very thankfully, there is a good portion of the American people who do not participate in lemming behavior. That is a positive and redeeming factor. They separate themselves from the clueless and senseless portion are the human lemming. But two things are needed. The thoughtful and sensible ones should bring to fruition enough pressure to greatly curb lemming behavior that is unacceptable. And that definitely should include homilies given at Catholic Masses and ministers of other religious faiths. That is clearly absent in modern American culture. And a good portion of the blame for lemming behavior that is unacceptable goes to this lack of pressure and attention. And that certainly helps to keep unacceptably bad lemming behavior alive and well. One would think the Catholic Church would take the lead. That would be so very acceptable, indeed, and the sooner the better.
