If they do not have a Christian worldview, they will inevitably just take the dominant view of the culture they live in.

I think that because we Christians cannot articulate (or should I say accept) how God's precepts can show us right from wrong on those areas not specifically labeled/mentioned from scripture that we are too often silent. The word unsure/confused comes to mind. Any area where we are silent, the world will rush in and fill in the blanks for us, stating that everyone should decide for themselves, just don't hurt anyone else.

Nowadays it's also the church that says this.

It's like we have been in captivity, like the Israelites, for so long that we have no clue of how the church and Christians in the past wouldn't hesitate to say something is evil, that something is sin. There was a period recently, last 50 years where some still did this, but it was by rote, without being able to explain why something was wrong by the light of God's word. We had the law but had lost the undrstanding, God's heart behind it.. So it looked wooden and the world would portray it that way.

* Why Christ Died: "He didn't die to make us religious, but to make us human. In our fallen state, we lack the completeness of our humanity. The monastic tradition makes the mistake of thinking that God is best pleased with us when we cut ourselves off from the world, deny ourselves pleasure, refrain from marriage and devote ourselves totally to religious activities. This almost assumes that God made a mistake in putting us in a world of pleasure, culture, art, nature, work, companionship, etc."...
