A couple of days ago, I posted some questions to facilitate discussion about the persecution and killing of Jews in Nazi Germany and Europe before and during WW2 in a post entitled, WHAT WOULD YOU DO? Which questions were in turn born out of a previous thread concerning the killing of babies in the womb entitled, Pro-Life & In favor of Keeping Abortion Legal.
In that Pro-Life thread a number of interesting points/opinions, implicit as well as explicit came up….
1) it's not Government's role to regulate morality,
2) Christians have no business getting involved in political processes,
3) abortion is already legalized and thus is a moot point,
4) Christians are not responsible for what is done as a whole in an unbiblical society,
5) too many of the Republicans and the Religious Right have already muddied the waters for useful action,
6) after more than 30 years of Roe vs. Wade, who really cares?
….and the like.
None of which notions hold water IMO. And so I ended up positing that — in both society as a whole and among Believers in Jesus — to reject the one (the killing of Jews) and embrace the other (the aborting of babies) is tantamount to not only apathy, but also hypocrisy.
And it seems to me that decrying the killing of Jews in WW2 while accepting the legalized killing of babies in America since 1973 is not the only incongruity we have in society.
There are other “hot” topics which have fomented their way to the surface of politically correct dialogue, like:
1) the wrongness of male chauvinism
2) the need for women’s suffrage and rights
3) the evil of past injustices to racial/ethnic groups,
4) with the resultant attitudes of entitlement by other racial/ethnic groups
5) the folly of a disregard for, and mistreatment of the environment
6) how the inhumane treatment of animals is wrong
7) the wrongness of bias against homosexuality/lesbianism.
So what we have is the fact that some things are obviously right or moral to one group of people, and those same things can be considered wrong or immoral to a 2nd group. And visa versa.
For stance, tomorrow I could attend a predominantly African-American local church and use the so-called “N” word several times in conversation, and I’d probably not make it out of there alive. And yet, I could also say I believe in abortion and would probably experience little opposition, much less physical violence.
And then, I could jump on a plane and attend a church in the so- called "Bible Belt" that evening populated by predominantly white farmers, and if I were to use said “N” word, I would probably get congratulated, while remarks supporting abortion would probably be disdained.
So my question is, who — or what’s — to say what’s right and what’s wrong?
Why is one thing deemed to be wrong or immoral while another is not?

P.S. If my hypothetical scenario offends, I apologize ahead of time to any African-Americans, or farmers (sorry bout that 'Scrupe! 
) who may read this.
