No, Redworm, you are incorrect. Yes, there were some immoral things, such as slavery.
However, I cannot think of too many immoral things that were accepted.
Shacking-up, homosexuality, abortion were not accepted, although it happened, but to a much less extent.

People had a work ethic that is not present today. They cared more about others. Today there is no respect for others, and we see vulgar T-shirts and hear language that would not have been spoken in mixed company.

Children were taught respect, and were spanked for infractions as necessary, but they were not abused and killed as today. There is unbridled sex, and it is encouraged. The girls dress like sluts, and the boys like it.

In fact, today it is a self-centered society that worships entertainment, and pleasure. It rejects that anyone has a right to tell someone what to do, within the law.

It is a very much morally deteriorated society/nation. It has turned its back on the living God who blessed us more than any nation in history.

I have personally witnessed the moral degradation. It is getting worse.
