The same word may have a slightly different meaning for each of us given the "our frames of reference". so it is understandable that when speaking of the good old days people have different perceptions.

So in an attempt to be more specified by sublimation I mean Freud's psychological understanding "" as being a renunciation of primal/basic instincts in favor of higher values such as art, religion and ethics".

We have made great technological advances but the human component continues to be going in the opposite direction. Look at our standings among other nations. Look at our arts, entertainment, sports,educational standings, manners, communication abilities, divorce rate, out of wedlock mothers, the abortion of million babies by Planned parenthood alone.
