“We are stopping cold the attacks on Judeo-Christian values”
That was President Donald Trump addressing the Value Voters Summit in Washington D.C. last Friday.
We are stopping cold the attacks on Judeo-Christian values.
That’s what he said.
Attacks.
On Judeo-Christian values.
What does that mean?
No, stop. Think about it. What does that mean? How do you attack a value?
Seriously. How do you attack a value?
Look here: Values are defined as those principles we hold important in life.
How do you attack that?
Values are personal. We each determine for ourselves what is important. Values are your personal ethics, morals, your standards of behavior. Values are often, but not always, the ideals imposed on us by our environment, ways of thinking learned from various examples: our parents when we are young, leaders, public figures, community, law, teachers, friends, societal groups, and so on. Because everyone’s experience is different, our values are often different in varying degrees.
