Larry,
You speak of morals as if there are no objective standards. Of course,
everyone has their personal standards of right and wrong, but there is also an
absolute, objective standard. What is it based on? Moving backwards in time,
it is based on laws. Where do the laws come from? Surprise, surprise, they
come from the Bible. Our forefathers who promulgated the laws for our country
took the Bible principles as a basic standard. Where did the Bible come from?
Inspired from God, we believe as a Christian nation. The standards of "thou
shalt not kill" are prevalent in almost all civilized society. Who protects
that baby's right who is aborted? Who protects my children from the influence
of pornography? if there are no standards and society cannot protect the
innocent, then where are we headed? There is no perfection here, but we
certainly can do better at protecting the innocent than we do today and it has
to do with standing up and being counted as supporting moral standards of
behavior.
RE: "Do you also condone the rights and morals of the parent who teaches
anti-social and bigoted morals?"
Those aren't morals those are a lack of morals

Yes, it is difficult, indeed, to find a balance between what is right and
wrong. That is why I spend most of my time reading and praying, *personally*
seeking the Truth.
