Why moral courage?

Sometimes we need to say "no" when everyone else is saying "yes."

Rosemarie Bürstenbinder

[Original in German]

In a world where anything that suits one's fancy at the moment seems to be allowed, where almost everything that doesn't seem to hurt others is tolerated, moral courage does not appear to be much in demand. But certainly it is a necessary quality for all people whose goal is to spiritualize their lives, to be better followers of Christ Jesus, and to find freedom from evil and the limitations of mortality.
