Thank Heaven for Moral Relativism
The Ten Commandments are back in the news, thanks to the Texas Legislature. Steve Brooks deconstructs them to offer a fresh take on morality and its supposed opposite: moral relativism. He shows how relativism can be a source of human progress, and how the key moral question is not, “Who is my God?” but “Who are my relatives?” Want to take the M-word back from the immoral minority? Here’s a way to start.

Professor William Greenway writes as a Christian, but argues that virtually all faith traditions, from Buddhism to Humanism to Wiccan, are rooted in agape—the reality of finding oneself seized by love for others. He claims this core reality, the reality of agape, offers our best chance as we face multiple global crises in the 21st century.Professor William Greenway writes as a Christian, but argues that virtually all faith traditions, from Buddhism to Humanism to Wiccan, are rooted in agape—the reality of finding oneself seized by love for others.
