Yes they have changed. They have become less and less important and so now we have not just immoral people but amoral. Peoples moral today are more and more debauched and debased than ever.

our morals are changing all the time, with every new generation. it was only 30 years ago that living with a partner that you are not married to was a sin. all it takes is public to have a change of opinion and a particular behaviour which was wrong is now consider ok. we are guided by the media by most of are morals. for example being sexist or agest is now not pc. its all to do with human rights as well. we also becoming muti cultural country and that is going to influence our morals

Nope, people are just more open about it all. I don't think we are any different than we were in the past, we just know more about it. Look at all the mistresses all the famous painters had in the Victorian era. Men have always had mistresses, prostitution is the oldest profession in the world. Look at the paintings on Greek and Roman buildings. Look at how many children Genghis Khan had, Henry VIII had many illegitimate children apparently. In India they had harems of women. We are all the same as we ever were! except women no longer just accept their husbands having a mistress, they used to be quite open about it. Queen Victoria smoked pot and look how many kids they had! Where do you think the 'Prince Albert' piercing comes from on a certain part of the male anatomy?

Nope. Morals now are exactly as they were when the Pilgrims landed in 1620; for that matter, they're the same as they were when the Chinese invented fireworks.

Yes, our morals, overall, have changed. For example, how often have I heard/read words to the effect that, "MY BOYFRIEND AND I HAVE 2 KIDS TOGETHER AND HAVE BEEN TOGETHER 3 YEARS AND ...."....why aren't they married then? TWO KIDS?
Middle school kids think oral sex isn't 'having sex.' Yes, MIDDLE SCHOOL! (Actually, the first time I heard that, it was a 5th grader talking.)
I could go on and on, but I'm sure you get the drift.
