Regrettably I have been unable to find a discussion of the qualities subsumed in "arete" But it bothers me to see so many ways in which virtue is mocked in our culture. I was reading TIME tonight, and could only shake my head at a review of three movies featuring human copulation, and contrasting the merits of the way the subject was handled in each of the three. A swamp Yankee farmer I knew said "There ain't no choice in a pig turd." I see no merit in trying to make pornography an art form. Without wanting to sound like an Islamic fundamentalist, I wonder about the future of a nation that scorns virtue, and enriches pornographers.
