The use of market values and technology as a social barometer has devalued the worth of individuals, rendered irrelevant the quality of their lives, and stunted their creativity. ↗
Hi. I'm here to enlist. You can't. You aren't human. You see, little fella, we don't do sociological stuff like "interspeciated workplaces." We're a crack company of space mercenaries. We do "hurting people" and "breaking things." Sounds like my kind of fun. -Schlock & Lieutenant Der Trihs ↗
When modern sociologists talk of the necessity of accommodating one's self to the trend of the time, they forget that the trend of the time at its best consists entirely of people who will not accommodate themselves to anything. At its worst it consists of many millions of frightened creatures all accommodating themselves to a trend that is not there. And that is becoming more and more the situation...Every man speaks of public opinion, and means by public opinion, public opinion minus his opinion. ↗
Paradigma sekular dan liberal yang mencirikan peradaban Barat hari ini telah meruntuhkan semua kebenaran mutlak. Setiap dakwaan kebenaran telah menjadi relatif dari segi masa (historicization of truth); relatif dari segi geografi, budaya dan status sosial (sociology of knowledge); relatif dari segi sifat bahasa manusia yang terbatas (the limits of language); relatif dilihat dari perspektif hermeneutika kerana setiap pemerhati adalah juga pentafsir. Oleh yang demikian, dilihat dari sudut yang pelbagai itu, pemaknaan tentang sesuatu perkara selamanya bersifat sementara, terbatas, maka untuk mengatasi keterbatasan ini perspektif yang lain harus diambil kira. Di sinilah faham pluralisme dianggap penting untuk menghalang manusia dari kecenderungan mengabsolutkan yang relatif. ↗
