RE: Is Modern Society Obsessed With Short Term Pleasure?

Thanks for commenting. I think the example you give of TV and movies is a brilliant one and something that becomes really noticeable if you watch old movies and media for comparison. The need for constant stimulation can be addictive in itself and I believe this is an example of pandering to it.

Definitely agree with that. Addiction to multi-media and social networking in my view is something that we really need to keep a watchful eye on. Especially with our children these days it seems like all other activities have taken a back seat.
