I couldn't agree more. People nowadays feel "If it's right for me then it's ok" no matter who they hurt in the process. I'm afraid it will only get worse until people start to have a ethical center that dictates what is right. For me that is my Lord and Savior. But when people have differents beliefs on what is right and wrong, and there is no uniform agreement, you have the planes taking down the WTC because 19 men thought it was right in the eyes of their god, but I'm sure that 3,000 people didn't feel the same way. The Bible says "No one is righteous no not one..." But this society has promotes self-indulgence and selfishness by teaching our youth to love themselves but forgetting about "Love your Neighbor... Enemies" etc. Suggles the idea you posed was originally taught by New Age folks, but they forgot the fatal flaw in their philosophy... Things are absolute!!! 2+2=4. Always will be... there may be some folks that say it is five, but they are only lying to themselves. If we all went along with this lie to say that it is five, we all are participants in the Great Lie. Hey "When the blind lead the blind they all fall into a pit." Something to think about, because our society is the same way.
