“As I said in an earlier post, slavery was NOT immoral, nor was considering blacks a lower class of people.”
Are you really of the belief that there are policies and behaviors that are immoral today that were not immoral 150 years ago?
If that is the case, then there must be policies and behaviors that are immoral today, but will be moral in the future.
Sounds like you may be of the belief that society “progresses” and attitudes and public policy changes to meet the new moral standards.
Do you believe these new moral standards should be set by the legislatures or by the courts?
First:
1. I am speaking of society in general. 100 years ago, if you slept with a woman who was not your wife, it was considered intolerable, and both parties would have been ostracized. Yes, what is considered moral changes with society.
2. Yes, what we consider moral now may not be considered so in the future, or vice-versa.
Third, you must really think I am stupid if you think I am going to be drawn into the trap you are trying to set.
Good Try, but no cigar!
