There will always be differences in opinions because your morals are subjective. They focus on yourself, here and now instead on the benefit to society in the future.
Oh yay. "Society is failing because it doesn't agree with my morals." Could you be any more of a narcissistic and myopic twat?
I didn't say that man.
Just calm down and take the words at face value please instaed of jumping to such ridiculous conclusions

Well in this case Jim will most likely divorce Jane which will break up the family. Something that I view as being important to society.
Any children will then be raised in a single family or at least a disfunctional one where studies have shown it to be an unhealthy enviroment to grow up in.
Those children grow up to be a burden to society rather than contributing to it.
Hope that helped
