I would be grateful if you only commented when you had something constructive to say on the subject of the post. Also, please stop the multiple entries. A single comment suffices. Please forgive me for saying this which I mean well. You do have insights which I appreciate but you need to discipline them.William Wildbloodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13231219533755925897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1513199068907090344.post-71335043223802404152021-07-18T22:25:20.870+00:002021-07-18T22:25:20.870+00:00While most Christian and Catholics are clearly goo...While most Christian and Catholics are clearly good acting humans but they believe in the Institution that still allows and encourages status.

"The French elite was drunk with equalitarian moonshine, and would very soon lose their heads in consequence" is pure poetry. Thanks. <br /><br />In Jefferson's defence I suppose that to make such a statement in his time of excessive inequality (compared to now anyway) might be seen as restoring some kind of balance. However, to take it literally is almost insane. It's rather like using the true saying that God loves the sinner to justify any kind of sin..William Wildbloodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13231219533755925897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1513199068907090344.post-27325751761942214852021-07-18T13:46:16.961+00:002021-07-18T13:46:16.961+00:00That wretched line has been used to justify untold...That wretched line has been used to justify untold mischief, and we haven't seen the end of it. Jefferson's mistake (or folly) was to justify the independence of the American colonies with the philosophical argument of universal human equality. It would have lacked rhetorical power, but I think he should have argued that independence was justified in the particular case of the American colonies. One thing to bear in mind is that the Declaration was written to win friends in France and Britain. We know that the French elite was drunk with equalitarian moonshine, and would very soon lose their heads in consequence. Many British Whigs were sympathetic to the colonies, and the Declaration encouraged them to do what they could to weaken the British war effort.<br /><br />History aside, it is insane to justify insubordination on universal grounds since this entails universal insubordination. And independence and insubordination are synonymous in this case. There are many cases where a man is justified in telling another man, "I will no longer take orders from you," but it is lunacy for him to justify his independence with a syllogism in which the major premise is "no man should ever take orders from anyone."<br /><br />It should be said that most of the Declaration is a much more sensible argument that independence is justified in the case of the American colonies because of the "tyranny" of the British Parliament and Crown. We now know that many of the charges were exaggerated or false, but independence was justified without destroying the principle of legitimate dependence (subordination).JMSmithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14502377102987849260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1513199068907090344.post-20462096133441890012021-07-15T18:53:02.152+00:002021-07-15T18:53:02.152+00:00Yee, you have to admit it's a clever ploy.

It's as though in the past evil was obviously bad even though it may have been somewhat justified to a corrupt mind but now it's actively celebrated as a universal good. Which, of course, makes it even more spiritually dangerous, to put it mildly.William Wildbloodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13231219533755925897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1513199068907090344.post-60051246008553030752021-07-15T14:18:39.916+00:002021-07-15T14:18:39.916+00:00Another interesting aside from the article: Jeffer...Another interesting aside from the article: Jefferson was a race realist along the lines of Vox Day. Merely acknowledging such differences today will get you "unpersoned" (just ask the milquetoast Charles Murray).<br /><br />If leftism is ultimately corrupting, then the US--deeply bathed in leftist thought--was doomed. I would submit that America has only prospered because the Christianity of her citizens could check her leftist politics. That is no longer true. <br /><br />Wokeism is now our official religion. Or, as Tom Holland expressed: it is Christianity without Christ. Our banner is the rainbow flag, which is unironically displayed (alongside BLM) on our houses of worship. Our companies are essential partners to the Birdemic agenda. We defend--at gunpoint--levels of industrialized infanticide that would have made the Carthaginians blush. Inevitable collapse would be the least this evil society deserves. MagnusStouthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16975404335377881030noreply@blogger.com
