Why do older generations always look down on younger
generations as "losing morals" or "morally bankrupt"
and at the same time argue that world is getting better, there is
progress, etc. (unless moral bankruptcy is progress but I guess
that would be blasphemy in MoQ)

1) At what point in history was "morals" at a peak?
2) as times change how do you measure the change as a good or bad (or can you
only tell in hindsight)

I read recently somewhere (sorry I can't remember where and can't remember
exactly what the article was about) that it wasn't whether it
was good or bad but modern or outdated.
Now I don't agree that all change is good BUT do wonder whether
**my*** judgement is as good as the *universe**.
That is if times are heading in a direction is it more
moral to try to change the direction if you don't like it or
try and be open to see the good in it.
Basically I wondering about this DQ = change.
