There will be many that say that there are a LOT OF GOOD YOUNG PEOPLE.

That said, the problem IS with a whole generation - even those 'young people that are good human beings' ... The corrosive effect of the progressive moral degeneration that has been instituted in our institutions (liberals have nothing more important to do with their time, their entire lives, than promoting their agenda) ... the degeneration is there in ALL - and one doesn't really have to dig all that deeply to find it in them.

Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good ...

I hope it isn't as bad as a whole generation . . .

How a Generation of Young People Have Been Damaged by Groupthink

August 6, 2012

No social group is immune from the effects of Groupthink. Intelligence has nothing to do with it. The people at Penn State have university degrees, and yet, they stood by while they knew that evil was in their midst. Social commentator David Brooks offers an insightful explanation that makes Groupthink look rational:

“I don’t think it was just a Penn State problem. You know, you spend 30 or 40 years muddying the moral waters here. We have lost our clear sense of what evil is, what sin is; and so, when people see things like that, they don’t have categories to put it into. They vaguely know it’s wrong, but they’ve been raised in a morality that says, ‘If it feels all right for you, it’s probably OK.’ And so that waters everything down.”
