A culture where it is acceptable to do and say whatever comes to mind sounds like a culture of tolerance and freedom. Each person can say they have their right to do as they please but in reality, that person takes no responsibility for anyone else. Such freedom is being a slave to their own sin and depravity. God creates moral order for our own protection and flourishing. Families and communities would end in disastrous chaos without moral guidelines. No one could trust anyone. But thankfully, following Christ is serious business for an entire culture to be stable and resilient. Following Christ is the only sane and responsible way to experience meaning and purpose, influencing others to live for eternal treasures.
