Rod Dreher tries to turn back the clock on modernity:
The God of Hedonism and Sexual Indulgence, whose devoted high priest Bill Maher is, has given us a world of broken marriages, shattered families, the destruction of the traditional family, miserable deaths from AIDS, epidemic teen pregnancy, fatherless children and the social (even criminal) dysfunction that accompanies such, and a younger generation unmoored from sexual sanity.
Rod is always worth a read – even when you disagree with him. But his anger at the 1960s seems untempered by the much more complex impact on human happiness and freedom that decade ushered in. Not without loss, of course, and consequence; but not without enormous gain as well. Until social conservatives wrap their heads around that, they will fail to win many converts.
