Who: Salon writer Tracy Clark-Flory

 

What: In a column devoted to defending sexual promiscuity, declares of young people sleeping around that it is “all very old-fashioned — there’s just a lot more unattached sex involved.”

Why it’s dim: Aristotle’s rule of noncontradiction states that which is A (premarital chastity) cannot be non-A (unattached sex).

Cure: If the terrible consequences flowing from the deracination of civilizational norms won’t do it, nothing will.
