The question is: What standards are the best, both for society and for its members, and who sets those standards?

Just look around and it's easy to see that everyone want's to do their own thing. Everything is right no matter who does it, and nothing is either good or bad because it's up to each individual to establish what's right or wrong for themselves. It's what some people call freedom. I will do as i please as long as it dosen't hurt anyone else. But is that really freedom? Is it true that the choices we make don't effect others. Can men really be that stupid?

The reality of that thinking is that sooner or later a battle will wage between everyone's freedom and what is right. The result? chaos will be the fruit that will sprout, and humanity will have to answer for their self centered attitude.
I can't such much other than I agree. There will be a turning point (very much hope so), and hopefully it will be sooner than later.
