It seems to have started in the 1960's with their great "free love" experiment. What a dismal failure all it got them was disease, sorrow and unwanted pregnancy.

you're absolutely right! there were NO venereal diseases before 1960. aren't you clever? because that is what you imply when you say "it" (moral relativism) seems to have started in the 60s and resulted in a,b and c. if moral relativism is responsible for them, they should not have been so prevalent before. your theory is terminally flawed. you should apologize to all of us; we are all dumber now having read it. you have offered no evidence for any of your claims, because it only exists in the parallel universe of your mind. why didn't you leave this question there?
and no one was ever pregnant! people grew babies in fields from potato plants. that's why we needed slaves!
how on earth do you even use a computer?

America-hater! Why is it that I love my country but people like you are always focussing on the bad stuff.
(Isn't that the standard Conservative response to a criticism of America?)
It is funny though, that in an ultra-liberal country like the Netherlands, the AIDS infection rate is 1/8th what it is in the US and teen pregnancies are 1/4th.
And how's that abstinence only thing going? In 6 states that use the abstinence only method and analyze sexual behaviors of participating youth over the five years of the program:
2 states reported increased rates of sexual activity;
3 reported no impace on sexual acitivity;
1 showed a small decline.
Think in terms of black and white only kills gray matter.

I don't believe it started with the 60's. Many of them are now very conservative people. I believe it goes much further than the hippie's of old to an even older group of communist. Their behavior on the far left is very similar to those of that era.

Moral relativism has healed this country and will continue healing this country, because it has brought something that has led to necessary political movements - TOLERANCE!

... moral relativism ended slavery... it allowed women to vote... it gave the poor a shot to succeed... it gave us freedom of religion... it's always been going on...
it didn't just begin in the 60s... that was just one minor phase in the entire history of mankind...
statements like your statement started the Spanish Inquisition...
the more you talk... the more it sounds like pure propaganda...

What country is that? Do you mean the USA? If so, is it a country? or a mere free trade zone?
