Zone1 One Truth: Should Society Maintain a Moral Compass?

[Cougarbear]

Let me know when that happens, I wouldn't want to miss it.

I doubt you would be alive at that point.

I doubt you would be alive at that point.

Will you be alive?

 

[Cougarbear]

Will you be alive?

If I am, it's because I'll be needed to work in the temples that will be built during the Millennium. You have to humble yourself in sight of the Lord now to not be wiped off the face of the earth.

- all in the heavens are equal and do as they please - no one who is a sinner will ever pass through the pearly gates ... c-bear or any desert dweller.

Opinions swirl through society. There are many opinions, but one truth. Moral relativity (what is right for thee is not right for me) abounds. Those who uphold one truth over opinions are labeled judgmental, discriminatory, bigoted, merciless.

Society can either choose moral relativity or one truth. As far back as Biblical times, societies failed during times of moral relativity and struggled to return to the Rule of Law–or one truth.

What say you? With the “Equality Act”, Congress is pushing American society into moral relativity and even into government regulation/insistence of this moral relativity into churches and faith communities. Is moral relativity the answer, or should we be seeking a society that maintains its moral compass of one truth?

When humans have power, they will abuse it. It's an age old truth. Trump is showing it with abundance, but he's not the first and won't be the last.

You say "humble" but you sound anything but.

President Trump is an example of a President taking action. Many of our Presidents are examples of inaction. Inaction often leads to long term consequences that are worse than had action been taken earlier. Research shows that more regret surfaces due to inaction than an action not taken early. Inaction does not result in a static effect, but rather a worsening one.

What say you: Can not acting when one has the power to act but does not, also be considered an abuse of power?

Our moral compass is as strong as ever. No need to worry about it.

 

[Meriweather]

Our moral compass is as strong as ever. No need to worry about it.

If society's moral compass is "as strong as ever", perhaps we should have considered action long before the present.

You cannot control every action people mske. At so.d point its dimply on people to do the right thing.

President Trump is an example of a President taking action.

that's why there is a written u s constitution to prevent zealots from exceeding their authority as the true example made for the intersections made against the self serving autocratic trump administration.

Senator Joseph McCarthy's "excesses" refer to the reckless, unsubstantiated, and bullying tactics he employed during the early 1950s to accuse government officials, artists, and citizens of being Communists or Soviet spies. His actions, which defined the era known as "McCarthyism," destroyed careers and intimidated witnesses through abusive, televised, and closed-door hearings.

meriweathers men of action ... they long for.

All are sinners and can repent by humbling themselves to the Lord and he will lift you up. The heavens are not equal as Paul stated. Just as the glory of the sun is greater in light than the moon. And the moon greater in light than the stars. Celestial glory, Terrestrial glory, Telestial glory. You have been lied to.

 

[Cougarbear]

You say "humble" but you sound anything but.

Actually, it's 180 degrees from the truth. It's you who is not heeding my warning. My warning is because I've been humbled by the Lord to share my knowledge to the world. But, you are rejecting this because you cannot humble yourself in sight of the Lord so that he can lift you up.

you are a joke, drunk on bibles of forgeries lies and fallacies - without a single verification for any of their claims of heavenly personifications by any individuals making such claims ... abraham moses et al.

the religion of antiquity, goal the 1st century events, jesus is based on as granted a&e at their request for self determination specifically require one or the other for judgement - the triumph of good vs evil - w/ only one side for survival.

all in the heavens accomplished their goal and are pure from sin is why they are all equal.

- sorry, leaves out ... c-bear, good luck.

Haven't you noticed that everyone, even the atheists in here, laugh at you?

Hasn't happened yet so I don't think it will happen ever.

Do you know the date of your death? No. So, why should you even think you know the date the Savior will return? "Humble yourself in sight of the Lord and he will lift you up."

 

[Hafar1014]

No. Rome fell because of generals infighting and the Huns.

I asked for a successful example of a society that operated by the Rule of Law–or one truth. Which of these do you consider successful? Do any of them respect the Rule of Law? Do any have one truth?

One truth but its never successful because there is no one truth. Rule of law isnt one truth. Rule of law means judges and juries as morals must always have context

 

[Dogmaphobe]

Our society should be based upon moral reasoning.

I see that this is what you're all now being told to think.

You cheered when he said no war.

Now you're cheering because he's a "man of action".

Trump is as inconsistent as his fan base.

The problem is, acting is sometimes THE WRONG THING TO DO
