As things are, I see two dangers and they are linked. The first is that if the Church is quick to assert and slow to listen, it can give the impression to its own members that moral insight is never to be had outside Christianity and that can be heard by others as strident and bigoted. It may also leave churches with inadequate means of helping people faced with new moral challenges, especially where tradition and scripture are silent.The second danger is that because so many of our values originated with Christianity, those who walk away from religion may think they have walked away from morality as well. If religion is optional why not morality? And religious stridency may well be what drives some to that kind of amorality or moral relativism. Morality arises in a social context, but a social context that changes all the time. If we are to respond to those changes in ways that help us all to live our individual and collective lives better, we'll need all the wisdom we can find from wherever we can find it.
