    What values transcend present ethical values and are true for all humans in all time?

    Or is even having timeless values not inextricably tied to present mores fascist?
    Since we like to throw that word around recklessly, I mean.

    All values within a society are dependent on whatever fills the spiritual void within that society, whether that void is filled with a spiritual grounding or is in a vacuum ready to suck up anything to fill it.

    In other words values have to make spiritual sense for the majority of a society in order for it to be ingrained and held of value within a society as a whole.

    All values are timeless...they can happen at anytime according to what spiritual settings are laid. But they arent all good, healthy or sustaining for a healthy long-term society.

    Timeless values that have shown their merit are Biblical values. They have been unchanged for 2000 years...and hold the key to a strong family, society and future resilience.

    Biblical values have a basis of free will which allows freedom to exist, which in turn allows innovation, self determination and productivity of the human spirit. History shows that.

    It's when man turns away from Biblical values when fascism and totaltarian happens. You can see that in the "Godless" left today which target and intimidate those who dont think like them..and Muslim majority countries and even in the old world where Kings designated their values over the Bible and did their best to keep the Bible hidden from the masses.

    That's my opinion, and hopefully I understood your question.

    Be kind. Imagine all the problems that would be erased in the world if we were all just kind to one another. It doesn't require that you like everyone, agree with them or even respect them.

    Since (I believe) we are dual in nature, physical and spiritual. Then food and the worth of a soul, or love, would be the most basic timeless necessities.

    Values do change over time.
    If people raised their children as the ancient Spartans did for example there would be mass arrests today.
    I’m hoping to hear things that are just as true today as they were thousands of years ago.
