Having had paid attention in  History and Western Civ, as well as to current events, I know that there  have been cultural swings, back and forth, toward, and away from, the  Puritanical. (How many commas was that? Seemed like a lot...) I just  never thought I would see so many in such a short time. (Commas, as well  as cultural shifts...)
One thing that is certain, and historically  demonstrated, is that each time there is a shift, the amorphous "center"  ALWAYS shifts farther away from what the conservatives are supporting.
