The paradox of our time: Precipitous decline of morality and values in our society

“Goodness without knowledge is weak; knowledge without goodness is dangerous. We have to build a better man before we can build a better society.

Morality is not a subject; it is a life put to the test in dozens of moments.” said Paul Tillich.
