Adiaphorization
Definition
The act of becoming indifferent from a moral, religious, or spiritual standpoint; a structural conceptual process through which an individual or a community transforms facts previously considered dogmatic or mandatory into neutral matters (adiaphora). This phenomenon of ethical relativization removes axiological tension and qualifies tolerance or indifference toward strict rules of social conduct.
