Oldie, #2:

Something to Think About for
June 16, 2008:



For the record, I'm not planning to go see it, nor am I recommending that you do, but according to a review that I read in World Magazine (click here), Sex in the City, the movie, after some mega-shopping, and footage that could have been provided by the New York Chamber of Commerce, lands at a surprisingly conservative conclusion. Quoting from the article:
"the . . . ladies find surprisingly traditional roles to fill.
In the end, the quintessential sex columnist has come to embody the caricature she so often drew of women in relationships. It seems Carrie Bradshaw was looking for a man to solve her problems. It just took longer for her to realize it."
If indeed that is the conclusion of the movie, it is as flawed as the-perpetually-single-and-free-to-engage-in-sex-at-my-whim, notion that the HBO series portrayed.
Real needs are met by a relationship with God. Our human relationships are but are a part of that. A most rewarding part when we pursue them God's way.

It's STTA.
