Excellent! I am so happy you directed me to that. I don't know who is Ben Akers but he is so right on! In an atheistic world of no priests or pastors, who will speak with the voice of moral authority? Celebrities? Ha! Politicians? Double ha! Only the religiously charged can speak with moral authority against moral relativism. And that fundementally circles it back to only God sets moral values, otherwise it's all relative. Great article Auntie.
The problem is that children rioting is news, Pope holds mass rally isn't, unless you happen to be in the city that hosts the event. Children can get attention far more easily by behaving badly than by behaving well.
