Maybe I'm old fashioned...

Go ahead and flame me....but I was discussing this with someone the other day and it sparked some anger...nowadays it seems cool to be either liberal, gay/bisexual, or on some kind of drugs....I'm not saying ALL people...and I'm not saying there's anything wrong with being gay...but it seems as if no one gives a shit about morals anymore...it's more accepted and common to be sexually promiscuous and "bad" and if you happen to have morals you are considered a "prude" and actually laughed at...marriage is considered a joke now...50% divorce rate....12 year olds with kids...abortion being used as a form of birth control...people are more concerned with being politically correct than standing up for what's right...sorry if this doesn't make sense but it's more a rant than anything...

you know what I think about this hun

 

[Roadblock]

Your posts makes total sense. Moral is going downhill

I understand where you're coming from, Pink.

However, where you see a lack of morality, I see an openmindedness that's never existed before.

One thing to remember is that morality is relative. I don't think there is anything wrong with being gay or bisexual, and I'm glad that our culture is tolerant enough today to let people choose thier own sexual identities. And while I don't think drug use or promiscuious sex are healthy persutes, I'm also glad that the stigmas attached to both are begining to die out.

Likewise the institution of marrige no longer holds the relevance it once did, and honestly that doesn't bother me much either. I believe that if people choose to be together, they don't need a church or a judge to tell them is ok.

Please don't misunderstand me. I understand where you're coming from. With you being catholic, I'm sure your moral code and mine are quite dissimilar, yet we still manage to find some common ground. Even though I like to tease you, I respect your views on morality - and so do a lot of other people.

So...are we going to get it on, or what?

I think like you, but I totaly see where Pink is coming from.

I understand where you're coming from.......

Believe me, I've got two beautiful daughters and it really concerns me what is thrown at them on a daily basis.
We have to actively keep them on track of what I hope is decent morals. Already, the little boys are hanging around the house....I swear to god I'm not going make it......

I think kids grow up too damn fast nowadays........fuck, everything's too fast. Or I'm too slow........lol

But I know what you mean........

I have to agree with Pink, although i can see taps point of view, i have a few problems with society today. First is the rise of STDs and AIDS. We're killing ourselves, and we think its just the lessening of the status quo. Another thing, you don't have to be religious to have morality, some things are just right and wrong, and i tend to think that nailing everything in site is not something i want to teach my children. Just my .02.
