"Aquinas argued that man was inclined by nature to be a rational, familial
being -- that, in other words, the moral law was innate.
....
But to conclude, beneath the fragmentation and pluralism of religious and
moral views we live with daily, a pluralism so eloquently explored of
late by Peter Berger, John Gray, and others, and which threatens to tear
us asunder, lies that which makes us most human. I shall be forgiven for
closing this piece with the moving final paragraph of The Moral Sense.
The words are wise and should be remembered. In this most intemperate
time, they represent the essential core of what Wilson's temperate book
has to teach us:
'Mankind's moral sense is not a strong beacon light, radiating outward to
illuminate in sharp outline all that it touches. It is, rather, a small
candle flame, casting vague and multiple shadows, flickering and
sputtering in the strong winds of power and passion, greed and ideology.
But brought close to the heart and cupped in one's hands, it dispels the
darkness and warms the soul.' "
-----end of excerpt----------
Interesting idea.
If it is "innate," then is there a need to impose it by way of some sort
of institutional strictures?

James Q Wilson is a conservative and you have to admire such guts in a
conservative. Conservatives generally hate science; especially
evolutionary psychology and genetics.
I have posted many of his points of view to derail fundies and its
really funny. Fundies say he has sold out to "secular humanists". NO
HE HASNT~! He is just catching on what science portrays. And i am not
a conservative i any way except in fiscal matters
(try the Christian site http://www.asa3.org for crushing creationism)
Have you ever read Thomas Jefferson's letter to Thomas Law about Human
MORAL SENSE being INNATE~? The Sage of Monticello was way ahead of his
time in some matters.

Muslims women vs Christian/Jews sluts.
The Muslim woman's in veil focus is her home, the "nest" where her
children are born and reared. She is the "home" maker, the taproot
that sustains the spiritual life of the family, nurturing and training
her children,providing refuge and support to her husband.
In contrast, the bikinied Western Christians/Jew sluts practically
naked in front of millions, she belongs to herself. In
practice,paradoxically,she is public property. She belongs to no one
and everyone. She shops her body to the highest bidder. She is
auctioning herself all of the time.In western Christian/Jew sluts culture,
the cultural measure of a woman's value is her sex appeal.

What sort of ignorant camel ***** is this ?
The reason women wear a veil is because that dirty old man
Muhammed(***** be upon him) couldn't handle having so many
wives(including his 6 year old bride Ayesha)being seen,and talking to
other men,so he then had one of his revelations from Allah forcing
women to cover themselves up,and not to talk to men except for close
family members.
Now talking about sluts, whoring is a important part of islam.
In Islam Whoring is called 'Muta marriages'
The fact is that many muslim women are what we in the west would call
'Whores' a Muta marriage can only be for one hour, so a man can get a
muslim *****.do his business with her,tell her she's divorced,and then
go about finding a camel to get some camel ***** from,as Muhammed(pig
***** be upon his head) did order his followers to drink camel *****.
That was a posting from Allah god of all muslim Whores
