True Love? There's Not an App for That.
There's an app for everything, it seems—including dating. For anyone in the dating world who wishes for an electronic matchmaker that eliminates the poor and the ugly, then "Luxy" is for you. This app works to connect the rich and attractive with each other (as if the elite weren't already traveling in the same circles). Not only does the concept seem ludicrous (to the point that we seriously consider that this might be a hoax) but there are people who have actually signed up for the program. Still, this is one of dozens of apps that has made it as easy as a swipe to let someone know you are interested in them. Or not.
Possible Preaching Angle:
God makes his views on the proud, arrogant, and the worldly very clear throughout the Bible. Jesus made a point to spend his earthly ministry with the weak, the broken, and the oppressed, the very people that this app is decidedly not made for.
