Many things that were done in the secret corners are now been televised. I remember a popular TV show in Nigeria and other countries,it holds it yearly audition around megacities in the country. In a viral video, a lady spoke in an interview that she is ready to do anything for the $100,000 prize, she said “anything” moral or immoral, “i will do anything to win the prize”.
Many things that now give many fame, fortune and success, if done many years ago were abhorred by our very society,many teenagers now have people on the internet who their follow and model,sin is normal and celebrated today in our day.
But let me draw your attention to the past.Nothing has changed,in the past God judged sin swiftly or sometimes delayed judgement but one thing is certain,actions(good or bad) does have reactions.
Pro 14:9 Fools make a mock at sin

Sin must not be toyed with
Psa_106:43 Many times did he deliver them; but they provoked him with their counsel, and were brought low for their iniquity.
They were brought low for their iniquity, there were brought low in values, in position,in honour and in the eyes of God.
Sin brings men low from happiness to sadness,sin brings men low from health to sickness, Sin brought Adam low,sin brings men low from honour to shame,sin brings the consequential to inconsequential.
Sin steals, destroys and kills
Only Fools joke at sin because many have been brought low because of their sins.
