“The women's movement and gay and lesbian movements always come together, and our adversaries are always the same because the male supremacist, patriarchal, ultra-right-wing, religious fundamentalists, whatever you want to call it is devoted to saying that sex is only moral and okay when it is directed towards having children and occurs in patriarchal marriage, so the children are owned.” WantChildrenTogetherSexReligiousMoralMovementGayOkayWingsMalesDevotedAdversariesRight WingHaving ChildrenUltras Author:Gloria Steinem
“The irrationality of disgust suggests it is unreliable as a source of moral insight.

“So long as the mental and moral instruction of man is left solely in the hands of hired servants of the public--let them be teachers of religion, professors of colleges, authors of books, or editors of journals or periodical publications, dependent upon their literary incomes for their daily bread, so long shall we hear but half the truth; and well if we hear so much. Our teachers, political, scientific, moral, or religious; our writers, grave or gay, are compelled to administer to our prejudices and to perpetuate our ignorance.” IfsMenWellsLongBookHandsPoliticalLeftReligiousHalfMoralTeacherIgnoranceCollegeGayPrejudiceGravesIncomeBreadServantDependentEditorsProfessorsInstructionJournalCompelledPublicationDaily Bread Author:Frances Wright

“Any of us who work on the task of solving the climate crisis have at times an internal struggle between hope and despair. But that's one of the things that connects this climate movement to the previous great moral revolutions, like the civil rights movement and more recently the gay rights movement. So those who feel despair should be of good cheer, as the Bible says. Have faith, have hope.

“I was morose that the Era of Barack Obama has returned us to a period where everything is racist, everyone is walking on eggshells, and you get the moral preening from white liberals who don't actually even know any black people. But, oh, do they love to get on their high horses and accuse Republicans of being racist for opposing very liberal government policies and a very liberal Democratic president. It's an extension of the civil rights label being slapped on gay marriage and abortion.

“There are many agreements across the so-called "world religions," at a certain level of abstraction. But when it comes to applying them in concrete situations they may lead to incompatible decisions. As an example, some people think that Christian ideas of sexual modesty suggest that homosexuals should be locked up, some people think that they mean that the churches should recongize gay marriages. But everyone believes in sexual modesty. I think there are universal moral truths, whether or not everyone accepts them. Here's one very low level but important one: it's very bad to torture people.” PeopleThinkingWorldBelieveMeanImportantChristianChurchDecisionSituationAcceptingMoralGayTortureConcreteModestyHomosexualGay MarriageLocked Up Author:Kwame Anthony Appiah

“For nearly a century, the moral relativism of science has given faith-based religion--that great engine of ignorance and bigotry--a nearly uncontested claim to being the only universal framework for moral wisdom. As a result, the most powerful societies on early spend their time debating issues like gay marriage when they should be focused on problems like nuclear proliferation, genocide, energy security, climate change, poverty, and failing schools.” ShouldProblemSchoolEnergyGivenResultsPowerfulMoralPovertyIssuesFailingCenturySecurityIgnoranceGayUniversalClaimsClimateClimate ChangeFocusedNuclearMost PowerfulBigotryGenocideEnginesFrameworkGay MarriageProliferationRelativismFaith BasedNuclear ProliferationMoral RelativismEnergy Security Author:Sam Harris
