What values might those be? The ones based on "Christian" (or insert

don't know, ones based on personal responsibility? Just curious is all,
not meaning to start any issues here, as I have to agree with you that
there is a definite need for some value system to be in place.
My impression of recent trends is that the new value is "getting ahead."
It used to be that we believed in something bigger than self-promotion --
things like integrity and the good of the community. We would see judges
influenced by campaign contributions as very shameful, completely
unacceptable. It has nothing to do with Christianity, of course, because
almost any moral tradition holds these values. Why are we letting things
go these days?
