ex cathedra: You knew it was coming

You knew it was coming

I have to rethink my direction on this blog, just for my own self-respect. It's becoming a bit like a commentary on a circus freak show. (And I suppose someone will find that phrase offensive).

Case in point: A government-sponsored bioethics committee in Switzerland has now decided that plants have rights. I thought this was a joke, but found an English version of the original report.

Cows, who are, in PETA's worldview, our slaves in a holocaust, are apparently now, in the Swiss ethicists' eyes, genocidal mass murderers....to say nothing of all their methane attacking the atmosphere.

Is there no end to the cycle of crime? The only way to respect life, I fear, is to end the lives of all living things.

Toward Our Future

What the sons of Europa need is a new religion: one that is as tribal, portable and survivalist as Judaism, as masculine, terrestrial and tough as Islam and as intellectually and aesthetically creative as Christianity...with a dose of the unflinching realism of the ancestral ways of the Greeks and Romans, Germans and Celts and Slavs..And for the larger Indo-European frame, something of the Indian capacity to combine an ultimate and philosophical realization of The One with a robustly mytho-poetic religion on-the-ground. Oh, and some of the psychological acumen of Buddhism.

Liberalism's Basic Flaw

Liberals believe that the chief role of the State is to force everyone to be equal, (ie, take vengeance on the successful). So when they are confronted with any group that they deem less well off than themselves, they are morally disarmed, completely and utterly. Any group that can achieve Victim Status is on their way to power and the (White) liberal's only job is to give them what they want, no matter how much that damages him. And nothing may ever be expected, much less demanded, of them in return. It's a recipe for suicide: no other outcome is possible.
