When young people tell me about their struggles against sin (and quite a few not so young), the manner in which they recount their difficulties is quite revealing.  First of all, they know what is a sin, and that’s helpful. In spite of the perverse indoctrination they receive from all sides (academia, entertainment, big tech, our present regime, etc.), they still have enough awareness of natural law and self to know to call sin out for what it is. That’s encouraging.
