Quotation on Morality...

I lifted this quote from Anthony Peyton Porter's Facebook status - it's a good one:


"Moral certainty is always a sign of cultural inferiority. The more uncivilized the man, the surer he is that he knows precisely what is right and what is wrong. All human progress, even in morals, has been the work of men who have doubted the current moral values, not of men who have whooped them up and tried to enforce them."


Henry Louis Mencken, journalist (1880–1956)
