Many have been asking why all this is happening.

Accepting this view has led to there being no final authority, no absolute basis for [[moralit]]y and no clarity about who or what we are...

When I was at school in the 1960s and 1970s, the Christian thinking and values of previous generations were still evident. General behaviour, truthfulness and respect were still considered more important than academic or material success.
