It's not difficult to look around the news every day and find a sign of the end of the world. Our culture is spiraling downward so quickly, it's a wonder there's not a tangible shaking of the very air around us. But I'm fairly certain that a new reality game show might take the cake for signs of the end-times.
I'm not sure what the most distasteful part of the show is: the fact that honesty is so difficult to achieve that money must be offered in exchange for it; the fact that despite the amount of money being offered, total honesty is still difficult to get in exchange for it; the fact that the contestants on the show willingly admit to all sorts of vileness; or the fact that these contestants are probably quite representative of all people, myself included, in terms of vileness. People enjoy watching car wrecks; even if these wrecks are mirrors of their own souls. Any wonder the ratings for the show are through the roof?
