Morality is not determined by individual choice!

“If it feels good, do it. Anything goes.” — counterculture creed, 1960s
“We make men without chests and expect of them virtue and enterprise. We laugh at honor and are shocked to find traitors in our midst.” — C.S. Lewis, The Abolition of Man, 1943
The left mocked “family values” for fifty years and now they’re stunned to discover brutes among them. They tore down every standard of decency and now they’re dismayed to see they’re drowning in sewage. … dubbed the ‘Weinstein Sexual Enterprise.’” Organized crime/sexual enterprise … “We need to do better at protecting our sisters, friends, co-workers, and daughters,” said Ben Affleck.
Yes, the absolute filth and reprobate behavior oozing from every corner of liberalism is nauseating. But we did not stop protecting and respecting women; you on the left did. We did not stop believing in morality and virtue; you on the left called it prudery and utterly rejected it. We did not stop treasuring honesty, and integrity, and character, and God; you on the left spat on all of it.
For fifty years, there’s been an attack on right and wrong. Well, how’s that working out?
Nope. This has nothing to do with Donald Trump — other than the fact that he has driven your side crazy. This has to do with you people on the left deciding decades ago that morality was an individual choice. You people own this, Mrs. Pelosi.
According to the American left back then — and today — conservatives don’t have the right to “impose” our morality on anybody else; we’re stiff-shirt Puritans trying to tell other people how to live. It’s one of the pillars of liberalism: they demand we be nonjudgmental — toward them. They are viciously judgmental toward us every hour of every damn day, but heaven forbid anyone criticize them or point out the dangers of their ideas.
There’s a very good reason why liberals do not want to be judged. Judgment brings with it the whiff of a moral structure outside themselves — which terrifies and repulses them. They don’t want to be held to any standards, moral or otherwise.
You don’t get to define what’s moral and not. What’s right and wrong, just and unjust, is established by God.
George Washington compiled his own list of undeniable truths, which he called “Rules of Civility & Decent Behavior in Company and Conversation.” … Washington’s last rule, No. 110: “Labor to keep alive in your breast that little spark of celestial fire called conscience.”
