Upon our culture's transcendental morality

There are so many people out there shouting at us, and we don't have the time any more to reflect properly let along formulate our own answer to the shouting that is entirely solid and decent. Thinking is a great thing to do, though many people nowadays mistake that from the state of absolute rationality that is their cause. Are they mistaken? Yes, they are, because somehow they think that they are so much better than anyone that preceded them and can't point to anything solid and decent to be the actual fundation for what and how they are forcing thought, belief and living to be. Somehow we live in a time where the shouting tell us that there's no more room any more for faith. So what's going on then with the quite normal jumps of thought that we make daily? You are a parent and want to be respected as such by your children. What is your rational for that? Is it heroic materialism or selfish gene-like individualism?

“Anybody who wants religion is welcome to it, as far as I'm concerned — I support your right to enjoy it. However, I would appreciate it if you exhibited more respect for the rights of those people who do not wish to share your dogma, rapture or necrodestination.”
