It's very possible moral in the context of your own time. To still be seen as a moral bastion, centuries after the public discourse has advanced beyond anything you've ever been really exposed to is astonishing, so much so that some people are remembered specifically for that.

I'm sure in a century or two, 99.99% of us here will hold at least one view that is seen as reprehensible to the future zeitgeist. Grandpa and Grandma having some dated views isn't something recent, after all XD
