Milk, honey, cheeseburgers and oxycontin
By outward standards, the modern Western World is a paradise, though the pastoral beauty of Arcadia is long gone. Milk and honey flow alongside cheeseburgers and oxycontin.
We have at our disposal unlimited pleasures; food, wine, sex, drugs, all the depraved fantasies of a Roman Emperor.
Death had been allowed to slip from our minds, a fatality of
new medicines and
increased hygiene.
