Through the fruit of human pride, the man turns from God and loses the meaning of his ultimate end. He thinks that total freedom will be a going out to human realization through the satification of his carnal appetites, but ultimately, he is \u00a0confronted with emptiness. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13px;line-height: 19px\">Thus in our society what reigns is the primacy of the individual. Grounded in a system focused on seeking the material and pleasure that are passing goods, the man closed to God closes in on himself, walking on a path in which \u00a0he has to live all the he can in this life. All becomes an object to satisfy his appetites and his carnal and human realization. The ends justify the means. <\/span><br \/>\n<strong><a title=\"register for free and receive all the news from the blog by email \" href=\"http:\/\/feedburner.google.com\/fb\/a\/mailverify?uri=cancaonova\/TgZZ\" target=\"_blank\">register for free and receive all the news from the blog by email <\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13px;line-height: 19px\">In this primacy of the individual, love of the neighbor\u2013altruism\u2013is not important, but what is important is me\u2013my ego\u2013egoism. This egoism which impregnates the people, touches all structures of \u00a0the society, and the family directly. The spouses become an object of consuption of one by another. When the object is not longer useful it is thrown \u00a0out, and the result in marriage is separation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13px;line-height: 19px\">Ademir Costa<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13px;line-height: 19px\">translated from <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.cancaonova.com\/diariodeumconsagrado\/2013\/07\/15\/primado-do-individualismo-%E2%80%93-o-eu-em-primeiro-lugar\/\" target=\"_blank\">Portuguese<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We live in a society influenced by secularism that hinders God from the human situations in the world.
