Tolerating American teenagers at In-n-Out - first-world propblem? A problem of industrialized mass society? Or a perennial problem?
Or is it specific to a certain social class?
Teenagers having a false sense of independence before they're ready? Any sort of traditional appeal, such as "Do not bring shame upon your ancestors," would probably not have much of an effect...

Engaging the Culture or...
Surrendering the word to those who would promote mass culture (and the state)?
When Sarge told me about Gravity and the presence of religion/Christianity in the movie, I said it was inevitable that Fr. Barron would talk about the movie. Here is the video. Does he praise the movie precisely because it features those aspects, even though it is arguably a feminist movie? I'm not going to watch the video to find out.

A Positive Appraisal of the Baroque
Modern Ambiguity Amid Baroque Splendor by Michael Tamara
Too sensual? Fr. Bouyer is no fan of the Baroque period; can one have ornate churches that nonetheless do not distract from the spiritual? (Churches decorated perhaps like those in the East, with plenty of icons.)

Baroque Liturgy On Trial by Fr. Giles Dimock OP
Reformed and reenergized by the Council of Trent, the Church began to actively advocate for an architecture capable of overwhelming the senses and readily leaving a strong impression on the peasant masses. A brand new style evolved alongside and out of this need, and the resulting churches served as a clear message to all who encountered them: the Church had seen the error of her ways and had come back holier and stronger as a result.
This new style came to be called Baroque and is so prevalent today throughout Rome, that its significance runs the risk of being lost on modern citizens and tourists alike. However, in the late sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, it was truly revolutionary.
