More Wright Relativism [Kathryn Jean Lopez]
This, from a reader, sounds about right:
I'm seeing very little news about this. The developing meme seems to be
that Wright redeemed himself
with a speech about respecting one another's differences.
I disagree. First he didn't "respect" what he calls european
standards. He mocked them.
Second, I didn't hear him propose a new standard; simply that
"difference" is OK.
In short, I heard a man saying there should be NO standards: the
ultimate in moral-equivalence. There is
no correct way to speak. No correct education standard. No correct
theology. How long now before
he argues there is no correct LAW? "Why should we respect your
'european' laws?". Sound familiar?
It's already happening in Europe. There is no right or wrong; we can't
judge a person's behavior...
we have to respect his "difference".
And the media seems to have bought into it. Rush, Sean, et al will
take this on. Then the MSM will be able
to say Wright has become a "partisan" issue.
