Not just society but religion. I believe that for too long society leaned on the crutch of the church to keep people moving in the direction where society felt it should go. Too much emphasis was placed on doing things for these "moral" reasons and not enough on understanding that life can be a bitch. As a result, people pay no mind to it when they say something like "for better or worse". Well you know what people? That worse part is going to happen and unless you are ready to deal with it in some other manner other than running from it, you are going to get bit in the ass again.
