So you perceive that "immorality" has been normalized, while other feel that the world is too political correct. Aren't these two contradictory ideas? Doesn't this indicate that they're very different trends in society depending on the observer?

In any case, it seems strange to me that it (at least in America, as far as I've noted) seems to be the conservatives that are whining about political correctness, then in the form of no school prayers and actions on global warming. The conservatives are hiding under the concept of opposition to political correctness to spout any homophobic, misogynistic, islamophobic bullshit they please and not expect to be criticized for it.
