Yeah, I spent some time working in "higher" ed and I know what you mean. I grew up in a very legalistic sect of Christianity. Many good people but the legalism was and is ugly. I tend to pick up on patterns and as I wrestled with my faith (as everyone should) I was also being exposed to progressive morality and began to see the same patterns. Then I began to see it all over the place. Its human nature dressed up in a cause. The progressive culture is a religion. Its just a secular one.
