Civility And Morality In Public Life By Benedict T. Palen, Jr. Inherent in the idea of a “leader” is the idea of showing, by example, the ways in which we should conduct ourselves as part of a civil society where differences are tolerated, opinions are freely expressed, and good rules of social interaction are followed.
Civility And Morality In Public Life By Benedict T. Palen, Jr. Sadly, in today’s world, especially in America, our “leader,” and some of his disciples, have completely disregarded these principles, and that reflects poorly on us as a leader among nations. Some of my friends in Europe believe that we have lost our way, and that America is now a dark place where the worst of human emotions are on display.
Civility And Morality In Public Life By Benedict T. Palen, Jr. There is hope. The majority of people are good and decent human beings, and their “better angels” will carry the day. People, young and old, know that each of us must lead by example, and that the seemingly small things like respect, civility, and decency, matter, in this life. All of us need to remember that each of us have a moral duty to make a difference, each and every day, in how we live our lives, and that means showing respect to others, and conducting oneself in a way that sets an example for our children, and others.
Civility And Morality In Public Life By Benedict T. Palen, Jr. Societies are built on many things. One of the most important of them is hope; hope for a better tomorrow for our children, and their children, and for ourselves. We must not lose hope that things will get better, and that we will return to the American society that we knew before it became tarnished by the politics of hate and divisiveness. The ability to change is in our hands. And it is our moral duty to facilitate that change.
