Reading: Barker [Postmodernism]

We live in a postmodern world. Models continually are born out of this current age of information and knowledge, just as postmodernism emerged from modernity. With so many avenues of media coming in, the individual in today's society can easily forever become lost in an endless sea of aesthetic commercial culture, devoid of meaning behind a collage of symbols.

The danger is that faith and belief in something greater can fall to the wayside of interaction. One of the easiest examples we see is in the newer adolescent and teenage generations growing up who would rather play video games all day then play outside and... BAM! We now have fat kids [not] running around.
