Herald Malaysia - daily news source with Malaysian and Global coverage of the Catholic Churches. Catholic News,World Christian News, Malaysia Church News
The need for validation is the strongest it has ever been now, more than at any other time in human history. Blame it on the explosion of social media, and media sharing networks like Tik Tok and Instagram.
Is it any surprise, then, that people have begun revisiting that age-old question: what am I here for? It’s ironic that in these days of excellent satellite navigation systems, and apps like Waze, that people appear to be more lost than ever. My media training and work in mass communications has made me privy to how insidious the media can be at implanting suggestions of values and perceived worth. How else can one explain the explosion in whitening products which play on the belief that being darker complexioned is bad? The proliferation of body positivity media personalities who trumpet ‘big is beautiful’ is also something I look askance at, because as a plus-sized person, I know it isn’t fun or glamorous to live with aching knees.
I am so grateful for the profusion of Catholic priests who have undertaken to engage on social media, because they believe — rightly so — that this is the new battlefield. Faith is at war with the rest of the Internet, and thankfully, we have charismatic men of God like Frs Mike Schmitz, Cedric Pesigna, and David Michael Moses who fly the flag of cool good for Catholicism.
