Evil existed before secular humanism was codified. Evil existed before moral relativism and existentialism. Evil exists in every culture of every people of every country. Evil exists among people no matter their professed beliefs and stated religions.
To blame an individuals evil actions on the culture in which they were raised absolves them of the responsibility of their actions. Moral relativism, secularism, existentialism, marxism etc. are excuses for evil not causes of evil.

Mmmmm....I'm saying our once-proud culture which was insituted to be a cut above savagery, has been corrupted by the ascendancy of the contemporary reincarnation of evil----which is secular humanism, and its co-relation, moral relativism.
