Mussar: Selfies for the Selfish - Rabbi Eliyahu Safran

«Selfies represent, by definition, the antithesis of the humble, unpretentious soul, the characteristics that make us a TzelemElokim. Modesty? Hah! In a universe where nothing exists but ME! what need does one have for modesty? One religious leader in the Philippines observed, "We are selfish. It's all about I, me, myself. Like those who keep on taking selfie photos." He noted an, "…unnatural self-centeredness… in the smallest to the most powerful." »
