Left-Right or RIght-Wrong?

From the Small Is Still Beautiful blog:

With regard to left and right, I think we should remember that these are themselves Enlightenment concepts. We should try to get out of the habit of employing such terms. We should ditch right and left and return to the more sensible discussion of right and wrong! If we do this, we will open up the terms of engagement. We will not see Greens as on the left, and therefore as being fundamentally on the wrong side, we will see them as being right on issues such as localism and decentralisation, and wrong in their adherence to the culture of death and the sexual hedonism which is a large part of its cause. We can then engage them in constructive dialogue by showing them that the enshrining of selfishness, which is what they do in their hedonistic “do your own thing” approach to sexual issues, is at loggerheads with the spirit of self-limitation necessary to conserve resources and the environment. Self-indulgence is the killer of the environment as much as it is the killer of babies. ~Joseph Pearce
