We've gone from moral and conservative to immoral and liberal.
That can lead to egotistical and self centered.
A side effect from being egotistical and self involved would be the "I'm alive right now so dig that hole for oil soI can make some money."
I could easily see that leading to everyone wearing gas masks.
Please tell me you're not serious about this line of "logic." I'm not even going to touch that. Not only does it barely make sense, that's like reasoning out this: you've annoyed me, and people who annoy me are bad. People who are bad do bad things, like steal, which can lead to killing people. You annoy me, so I can easily see that you're going to kill people! I SHOULD CALL THE POLICE!
Just take a skim of a look at the last century of American History. You'll see there is no steady decline in morals to where we are now, but rather an up and down pattern in society - from the era of progression, when alcohol was banned and the loose lifestyle condemned. That didn't stop the Mafia from bringing in whiskey and setting up

I don't see how sex being "base" or "animalistic" is either a bad thing or somehow making humanity sleazy or morally corrupt. Humanity does that all by itself, in other ways. Don't blame the sex. Accepting what our physical bodies need/crave/whatever doesn't mean that we're lessing our spiritual, emotional, moral, intellectual integrity. If I'm not mistaken, this is a very western idea that's spread almost everywhere. The body and the mind or soul do not detract from eachother... you're not happy spiritually when you're body is injured, are you? (unless... well, I'm not getting too much into religion here and now) So why would you become morally corrupt when your body is happy/feeling pleasure? Physical pleasure, in my opinion, does not make you morally unclean. Hormones are your *friends*. (of course, sex can mean other things becides pleasure of the flesh... but that's a mind thing, savvy? Like rape - it's not about the sex, it's about the *power* and that's caused by... well, getting back on topic now
