1. the continuing demystification of 'absolute' morality
2. the filling of that void with definition-by-consensus, aka the new morality (progressive, regressive, whatever)
3. the attempt to solidify the new definition with any means available
4. rinse & repeat
for lower-case morality is always an exercise in definition and choice.
viewed in this light, much of history is mankind's collective processing of this self-contradiction.

"there is nothing new under the sun."
this only reinforces a fact: the choice has been and is only between God and the devil.
