Generally against the best efforts of the Church.
Yes the church corruped Christs church by becoming to controlling, sticking their fingers in the money jar. Power went to their heads. That seems to be a human tendency as well. We cannot be as one equal in Christ.
But it was also that Christian truth that we are all made in Gods image with natural unalienable rights that set in motion human rights like equality and freedom of speech and belief.
Perhaps you better lit them again. What are these "truths" that are being replaced? From the way you go on one would think they all have to do with how we do sex.
Lol, no. I mention them earlier. Think about the west and what it represents. Why did most people in the world who were oppressed, lacked freedom and opprotunity long for, the US of A lol. I know it has been idolised. But fundementally the US represented what all western nations aspired to.
The freedoms we have come to know such as freedom of speech, belief, political views, conscience, Rule of law, Justice, not to be arbitrarily detained, tortured. To have the right to a decent education, health and to live in peace and order. Democracy, government by the people and for the people.
The idea that you can work hard and sacrifice make something of your life and to support your family. The value of each individual as a unique being, dignity. Charity, helping others, welfare, education, hospitals, charities, missionaries ect ect wanting to make a differences to others. Sacrificing for others. Enlightenment, rationality, science and the benefits to brings.
Though these are being eroded.
Why do you think most disadvantaged people around the world in non westernised nations want to come to western nations. Though I don't think things are the same anymore. The US has millions of people entering the country trying to get a better life as they know the same opportunities and rights are not afforded them.
Though like I said these same truths, rights and values have been eroded and it also doesn't mean that the US and other western nations have not been the best and worst of humankind.
Like the Church can be evil and yet Christ church as the same time western christianity, the path for which Christ early church emerged from has often gone astray and been corrupted. But at the same time Christ church has always been there upholding these truths and values.
