RE: The incivility of our times is not new-or is it?
Quote:A society that isn’t rooted in the absolute morality of faith in God and collective belief in the sacred value of human life will always tend toward division and incivility, regardless of who is in political power or who writes our textbooks and newspapers. Given that brillions of people have lived in this world, and brillions never believed in God or even religion for that matter, to make this kind of statement is nonsense. Belief in God does not automatically lead to being moral. That is one reason I believe Lincoln avoided organized religion. Best Rob Abraham Lincoln is the only man, dead or alive, with whom I could have spent five years without one hour of boredom. --Ida M. Tarbell
I want the respect of intelligent men, but I will choose for myself the intelligent. --Carl Sandburg
