That’s the key problem (which is almost pandemic), which is a disease that rots at the Body of Christ and the body politic, at the same time: once liberals compromise the truth and get people accustomed to (or even addicted to) cheap self-gratification and selfishness (with a stiff dose of pride, as a chaser), it’s nightmarishly hard to clean house.
I mean, whom would someone with squishy logic and morals prefer: someone who holds them to a high standard (and rebukes them when they choose evil), or a chuckling, smiling uncle of a fellow who’ll use erudite words to say “whatever you’re doing is quite all right, don’t worry; God loves you, and so do I”...?
You have hit the nail dead center.
