Why isn't this taught in school? We'd have fewer snowflakes, entitled, welfare recipients, socialists, drug addicts, and liberals.?

What is an example of Good and Evil in Pop Culture that is also linked to Religion?

This is just a variant of the idea that rights have responsibilities which come with them. When will the second-amendment gun folks realize that their rights carry some heavy responsibilities as well? Same basic question: why do some people think that it is only the others who don't see that duties come with freedoms?

That shouldn't be the role of the educator, to teach basic decent human character. It is supposed to be the role of parents to teach their children that rights and responsibilities are two halves of a whole.
