Yes, and everyone gets their frame of moral reference primarily from their parents, school and media they consume. Okay, a small handful may also read philosophical books entirely on their own, and even less will read more than one. But those are a minority. Not a 20% minority, more like a 0.1% minority. For the masses, morality is acquired from school, parents and media.
And where do parents get their sense of morality?
Religion.
Even you.
2000 years () of monotheistic religion shaped the western sense of morality, and it's fading away. There's no longer a sense of moral right and wrong, everything requiring to be equally acceptable, few exceptions aside of course... Such as "nazis". Even the distinction between mom and dad, men and women, is fading away... And in the end, if everything is pretty much equal to anything, if there's no sense of hierarchy for the sake of equality, what do you get? You get moral nihilism.
And what are millenials? They are a product of that moral nihilism, they are lost.
I recall reading Nietzsche when I was younger, and he basically despised Christianity for being weak. When he described Christians, he might as well been describing the modern SJWs.
What we have right now, IS christian culture at it's peak. Muslims put symbols of AK-47s and Swords on their flags and walls. Christians put the cross on their walls and necklaces. The cross, is a roman torture device. Used against Christians. One religion uses weapons, the other the device of torture they suffered on. There is nothing Christians worship more, than suffering. And they despise exceptionalism and pride (a deathly sin).
This is exactly what we have right now. People faking humbleness, attacking you for voicing Pride (a deadly sin in the Christian worldview), and bickering about who suffers the most, because we worship suffering.
Btw. have you ever looked up which religions are popular in Africa?
Christianity is so weak that it survived the collapse of roman empire and the soviet union... Needless to mention how muslims got their ass handed to them by christian in europe, starting with charles martel.
I wouldn't call that weak, personally. Now certainly, faith was a foreign concept to Nietzsche, who is reported to have collapsed in tears while seeing a mistreated horse...
There are stuffs I like in will to power. Problem is that, it doesn't really fit with , among other things. Implying that the will to power is the driving force underlying every single form of life is a tad ludicrous in the end.
I haven't looked at which religion is popular in africa, I look at the results. And popularity isn't an indication of right or wrong approach. many popular things are just plain retarded.
And christian orthodoxy, provides the best results, as far as I can see... https://youtu.be/JY3N_wf28UI?t=707
No niggerism, very decent people, mission accomplished.
Now when it comes to islam... Well, I see its fruits. There's nothing to be really proud about IMO
