The chaos of the more highly educated classes can’t be called values yet; it will be a century before their lifestyles congeal into a coherent moral system. Therefore social conservatives have an inherent advantage, speaking coherently from the authoritative position of tradition.
— George Friedman, The Next 100 Years (my reading fare on the bus these days). So if I’m reading this correctly: today’s social liberalism = chaos + 100 years. And along those lines, does chaos + 200 years = social conservatism?
