Children now are taught to be critical thinkers in school much more than happened with my generation. I see that all the time when talking with my children's generations and FAR less often when talking with friends with whom I went to school.
One simple example:
Intentionally false, fabricated memes are shared on Facebook exponentially more often by older, highly conservative people than by every type of younger person. It is a safety /, protection reflex for the older, more conservative paradigm, whereas the younger generations are much more willing to be exposed to, explore, and question things.

Even if people view many things differently, the core Gospel principles (LOVE; belief in the unseen but hoped; self-reflective change; symbolic cleansing; striving to recognize the will of the divine; never giving up) are universal.
