Apps like Tinder and Spotafriend are poisonous for modern day teenagers- especially Christian adolescents. Regardless of what the apps claim to be used for, they can very easily be narrowed down to apps utilized by teens to hook up and have sex. These applications are incredibly dangerous in the literal sense of the reality that pedophiles can easily access victims and cause serious damage, but these applications are also damaging the moral conscience of young teens. Offering hook ups in such a simple and easy way normalizes the idea of casual sex which is detrimental to teenagers. Christian teens are especially at risk of being damaged by the themes that come alongside these apps. When a Christian teenager uses Tinder, they are oblivious to the fact that they are jumping feet-first into the temptation of premarital sex. Once a teen has entered Tinder they have become susceptible to what the world thinks is "okay" but we as Christians see as toxic and dangerous. Sexual temptation is a very steep and very slippery slope and applications like Tinder and Spotafriend are enticing more and more teens to try and navigate that slippery slope. These applications may very well hold societal values, but they destroy the values that we hold as Christians and should be treated as such.
