I watched the movie a few months ago and it was very really done. It's impossible to not be moved by the story, and for that story to lead to some introspection. After watching it I too asked myself, how on earth do we fix this problem? How do we stop people, especially children, from being trafficked and sold as slaves for horrific acts? Do I have to be like Tim Ballard and go and liberate children from slavery? All credit to him, what he did was remarkable, but personally I couldn't do it. I wouldn't stand a chance, I'd be fucked up by these people traffickers before I could even say a word.

Yes, maybe you are right that the world refuses to focus on the problem, and maybe if we did focus on it we could all make a difference. But I will expand on that thinking a bit. The reason for this problem, the reason for all problems in the world is the culture we create. And by we I do mean we. Everything single one of us. The problem isn't just those people over there - feminists or trannies or 'niggers' (all favorite scapegoats of many of those here). It's me and you as well (John 8:7).

Using God's children for perverted sexual fantasies is not just because of the perverted people who do it. It's also down to a culture that trivialises sex to the point of absurdity. With fornication, adultery, and use of pornography rampant, is it any wonder that some members of society cross these the blurry and changeable lines we humans have created as to what is sexually licit versus illicit?

The line God created for us is not blurry. It is clear, unambiguous and fixed. Sex is for procreation. It links God's gift of creation to joining of a man and a woman in an indissoluble bond (Matthew 19). In human hands, marriage is not perfect. It does not necessarily solve children being sold for marriage itself, but it makes one line absolutely clear, and we can build the other lines similarly based on what we know to be right and just.

Christ gave us all a mission. The mission is clear - to spread the understanding of God and His moral law to all of our brothers and sisters. To ourselves be holy and obey His law so that we are not hypocrites like the Pharisees. To acknowledge that yes, in some way I contribute to the problems of the world, not just the other people over there. Not just the feminists or trannies or 'niggers'. It's my fault as well, for I am a sinner. And it's not going to be solved by anything except trying my best to make sure His light is within me, and from me to others.

So, my plea is we all follow or stay on that path. Focus on spreading His light to the world in whatever way you can. Have the moral courage the point out the sins and flaws in thinking of those we may consider our friends or brethren when it's clear to us that they are straying from the path. Use prayer as a means to honestly examine our consciences so that we may see our our faults, rather than focusing only on the faults of others. Use prayer to not only ask our God to intervene to solve the problems of the world, but to ask for help and guidance of Our Lord so that we may be properly led along this path to do what we each need to do. Use prayer to ask our God to help others we reach our to see His light and repent, and the grace to be able to love our enemies (Matthew 5:43-48), so that we may be able to spread His light to them so they too follow Him, instead of merely wishing these enemies of ours were gone or dead.

The problems of the world will only be solved by building His kingdom here on earth. Nothing more, nothing less.
