YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

“As habituated and rationalized sexual vice becomes widespread, it inevitably takes a toll on the stability of the family, as individuals no longer see it as the end for which sexual desire exists. Instead of seeking to restrain and reform disordered sexual desire in a way that will be conducive to strengthening the institution of the family, they seek to alter the institution of the family in a way that will be conducive to indulging whatever disordered sexual desires they happen to have.
