[QUOTE="king bast, post: 1154973, member: 11725"] [b]RE: NYT: "If You Let Boys Be Boys, They will Murder their Fathers & Sleep Wit...[/b] For most people, "morality" extends only so far as 1.what is legal, and 2. What they think those around them want to hear. [img]https://image.slidesharecdn.com/moraldev-111023180920-phpapp01/95/social-and-moral-development-12-728.jpg[/img] Note in the conventional phases - "most adults do not progress past this stage". So when a majority, or at least a large segment of the population hold a "morality" that was intitially dictated to them, and then reinforces itself via social pressure, it becomes a very big part of the culture - For example the recent gay marriage thing. Leftists genuinely believed it was their moral imperative to vote for it, as a result of their morality being inextricably intertwined with the pervasive culture. If the cultures fucked, a majority of peoples sense of morality is fucked. [/QUOTE]
