Wow.
‘..The big stuff, wars, moon landings, civilizations, doesn’t matter. Everything has been reduced to the lowest common denominator of personal insecurities masquerading as politics and entertainment reduced to fame for fame’s sake celebrities. All of it is calculated to match the workday routine of a twenty-something female college graduate working in media. Because that is mostly who writes it.
…Our enemies have set out big goals. We must set out bigger ones. We must become more than conservatives. If we remain conservatives, then all we will have is the America we live in now. And even if our children and grandchildren become conservatives, that is the culture and nation they will fight to conserve. We must become revolutionaries. We must think in terms of the world we want. Not the world we have lost.’

That’s an orthodox Jew perspective if I’ve ever seen one and it’s one
of the best things to learn from the faith: it fully recognizes the
hegemony of Natural Law so a reader doesn’t even have to be of their
faith.
It reminds us that Abraham himself was a revolutionary.
Too bad his seed had so much in-fighting, usually involving jealousies and covetousness.
Ike hated by Ish, Jake hated by Esav, Joe hated by his bros, the Israelites hated by the Amalekites, set the pattern that is merely a repetition of what is endemic in the whole of the human race.
The last commandment, thou shalt not covet, were it strictly adhered to, would likey lead to the end of war.
People who admire others and don’t covet what the others have or can do are usually the most productive and loving people I know.
So what do we have now? Western Civilization hated by its current rulers for much the same reason as those revealed in scripture. Hence there is why our governments are also at war with Judeo-Christianity and its scriptures. It exposes how their actions are in parallel with all the evil-doers there.
Hence Greenfield is correct.

ReplyDeleteThey also encourage and help others since they are secure in themselves, thus bringing progress in general.
Yep. And that too is why the Progs, who view progress only as that which takes those they seek to rule back to serfdom (see this post), see them as the enemy.
