I submit that the hackneyed notion that today's society is spinning out of control from a moral standpoint is not grounded in fact. Basic human rights, civil rights, rights of women and children, rights of the under-represented, and even rights of other animals, are much more valued and respected today than at any time in the entire history of our civilization. Contrary to the hollow cliches propagated here and elsewhere, our morality has indeed advanced with our technological and socio-economic advancement.
