Opponents Of Capital Punishment Argue That The State Has No Right To Take A Murderer's Life. Apparently, One Fact That Abolitionists Forget Or Overlook Is That The State Is Acting Not Only On Behalf Of Society, But Also On Behalf Of The Murdered Person And The Murdered Person's Family.

There Is An Authoritarian Strain In All Of Leftism-- Because The Bigger The Government, The More It Controls Other Peoples' Lives

I Recall Asking The Late Eminent Liberal Historian Arthur Schlesinger, In A Public Forum In Los Angeles In The Late 1970s, If He Would Say That America Was, All Things Considered, A Better, I.e., More Moral, Society Than Soviet Society. He Said He Would Not.

Once We Perceive That It Is Judaism Which Is The Root Cause Of Antisemitism, Otherwise Irrational Or Inexplicable Aspects Of Antisemitism Become Rationally Explicable...only Something Representing A Threat To The Core Values, Allegiances And Beliefs Of Others Could Cause Such Universal, Deep And Lasting Hatred. This Judaism Has Done.

Whatever Feminists May Say About Their Only Advocating Choices, Everyone Knows The Truth: Feminism Regards Work Outside The Home As More Elevating, Honorable, And Personally Productive Than Full-time Mothering And Making A Home.

Doing Well Is A Conservative Idea; Meaning Well Is A Liberal Idea

The Sad Fact Is That If You Love Education, Revere The Life Of The Mind, Care About The Pursuit Of Truth, Think Young People Need To Receive Wisdom From Their Elders, And Value Moral Clarity, The University Is The Last Place You Would Want To Send Your 18-year-old.

To Understand The Left, One Must Understand That In Its View The Greatest Evil Is Material Inequality. The Left Is More Troubled By Economic Inequality Than By Evil As Humanity Has Generally Understood The Term.

Economic Inequality

Rather Than Dividing The World Between Good And Evil, The Left Divided The World In Terms Of Economics. Economic Classes, Not Moral Values, Explained Human Behavior. Therefore, To Cite A Common Example, Poverty, Not One's Moral Value System, Or Lack Of It, Caused Crime.

There's A Lot More Power In Calm Than In Vituperation.

We Are Undermining A Generation's Happiness By Depriving Them Of National Identity, Religious Identity, And Gender Identity

The Essence Of The Hebrew Bible, Transmitted By Christianity, Is Separation: Between Life And Death, Nature And God, Good And Evil, Man And Woman, And The Holy And The Profane.

Society May No Longer Define Marriage In The Only Way Marriage Has Ever Been Defined In The Annals Of Recorded History. Many Societies Allowed Polygamy, Many Allowed Child Marriages, Some Allowed Marriage Within Families; But None, In Thousands Of Years, Defined Marriage As The Union Of People Of The Same Sex.

Until The Left Took Over American Public Education In The Second Half Of The 20th Century, It Was Generally Excellent - Look At The High Level Of Eighth-grade Exams From Early In The 20th Century And You Will Weep. The More Money The Left Has Gotten For Education - America Now Spends More Per Student Than Any Country In The World - The Worse The Academic Results. And The Left Has Removed God And Dress Codes From Schools - With Socially Disastrous Results.

Although Images Of Perfection In People's Personal Lives Can Cause Unhappiness, Images Of Perfect Societies - Utopian Images - Can Cause Monstrous Evil. In Fact, Forcefully Changing Society To Conform To Societal Images Was The Greatest Cause Of Evil In The Twentieth Century.

I Have Spent A Good Part Of My Life Showing What An Intellectual Bubble The Left Lives In.

The World Is A Bad Place. There Are Many Wonderful People, But On The Whole, Humanity Basically Stinks.

It Is No Longer Higher Education, It Is Higher 'indoctrination '

Higher Education

Universities Are Seminaries To Produce Leftists

The Bigger The State, The Smaller The Citizen

Since Neither Black Animosity Nor The Left's Falsehood Of 'racial Tensions' Is Based On The Actual Behavior Of The Vast Majority Of White Americans, Nothing White America Could Do Will Affect Either Many Blacks' Perceptions Or The Leftist Libel.

Prayer Is Not Asking God To Do Something, It's Asking God To Help You Do Something

There Is Nothing - Not Any Religious Or Secular Body Of Work - That Comes Close To The Bible In Forming The Moral Bases Of Western Civilization And Therefore Of Nearly All Moral Progress In The World.

The Only Thing Socialists Produce Is Debt And Self-esteem

Our Youth [with Their Overwhelming Support Of Obama] Are Voting For A Permanent Tax On Their Life

Secularism Produces A Bored Soul

The Left Has Taken Over The Universities And, Increasingly, High Schools And Elementary Schools. It Dominates The News And Entertainment Media. And Many Judges And Courts Are Leftist - Meaning That Their Decisions Are Guided By Leftism More Than By The Law Or The Constitution.

You Owe Others A Happy Disposition

Happy Disposition

You Have A Choice In Life Very Often Whether You Do Good Or You Feel Good.

The Left Has Never Been Comfortable With The Notion That Values Are More Determinitive Than Socioeconomic Factors In Human Behavior

Given The Religious Nature And The Emotional Power Of Leftist Values, Jews And Christians On The Left Often Derive Their Values From The Left More Than From Their Religion.

Let Us Make War On The Phrase 'violence Doesn't Solve Anything.' It Is A Lie, And Anyone Who Utters It Cannot Be Taken Morally Seriously.

Citizens Of Liberal Welfare States Become Increasingly Narcissistic. The Great Preoccupations Of Vast Numbers Of Brits, Frenchmen, Germans And Other Western Europeans Are How Much Vacation Time They Will Have An How Early They Can Retire And Be Supported By The State.

I Believe That Free Money Is As Addictive As Cocaine

There Are Subtle Ways And Overt Ways Of Alienating A Child From A Parent, But Either Way It's Evil

For Some Reason, The Evolutionists Have Not Come Up With An Evolution-based Explanation For Why Human Beings React So Powerfully To Music. But Surely They Will.

For The Left, Affluence Is Won, Not Earned.

There Is Much Less Envy Of The Rich By The Poor Than There Is Of The Happy By The Unhappy; By Those Who Believe, By Those Who Don't Believe.

Unhappy, Let Alone Angry, Religious People Provide More Persuasive Arguments For Atheism And Secularism Than Do All The Arguments Of Atheists.

There Was A Time When Liberalism Was Identified With Anti-communism. But The Vietnam War Led Liberals Into The Arms Of The Left, Which Had Been Morally Confused About Communism Since Its Inception And Had Become Essentially Pacifist Following The Carnage Of World War I.

Life Is Too Short Not To Enjoy As Much Of It As You Can

Life Is Too Short

The Great Are Not Famous, And The Famous Are Not Great

No American Conservative Has Ever Argued That The Government Should Never Be Involved In Peoples' Lives. That Is Anarchy, And We Don't Argue For That.

I Don't Let The Hate Go To My Heart, And I Don't Let The Praise Go To My Head.

When Women Criticize Men It's Called Feminism. When Men Criticize Women It's Called Misogyny

The Notion That There Is No Basic Value System Is Far More Incoherent Or Invalid Than The Notion That There Are Essential Values. Every Religion Can Tell You It Has Basic Values. You Ask A Christian, Most Christians Would Say Love God And Love Your Neighbor. Is That The Entirety Of Christianity? No One In His Right Mind Would Say It Is.

If Pain Were Water, The World Would Drown

Compromise, While At Times Morally Necessary Or At Least Justifiable, Is More Often Only The First Permission For A Person (or Society) To Begin A Long Downhill Descent.

The Fact Is That Not Only Do People Get More Wise And More Conservative As They Get Older, They Get More Kind And More Generous, Too.

Tell Me Of A Right Wing-induced Hysteria Of The Last 50 Years

I Believe That The Levels Of Taxation Advocated By Liberals Render Those Taxes A Veiled Form Of Theft. 'give Me More Than Half Of Your Honestly Earned Money Or You Will Be Arrested' Is Legalized Thievery.

Most Young People Have Tremendous Respect For Older People's Views.

Not Everyone Wants To Be Happy

Want To Be Happy

In Colleges Throughout America, Students Are Taught To Have Disdain For The White Race. I Know This Sounds Incredible, Or At Least Exaggerated. It Is Neither.

Just Because You Cannot Fight Every Evil Does Not Mean You Should Fight No Evils.

Citizens Of Liberal Welfare States Become Increasingly Narcissistic

Ever Notice, The Ones Who Deny The Holocaust Are Usually The Same Ones Who Want To Repeat It?

Is There A Point Of Taxation Wherein Even A Democrat Would Acknowledge It Is Thievery By The Government?

When America Doesn't Act, Bad Things Happen

I Don't Judge People By Their Theology, I Judge Them By Their Behavior

Choosing To Be Grateful Earns You Happiness

Most American Elementary Schools And High Schools, And Nearly All Colleges And Universities, Teach Everything That Is Significant From A Liberal/left Perspective.

It Does Say Something About A Society When Those Who Sue Physicians And Hospitals Make As Much Or More Money Than Those Who Heal Disease. It Says Something About A Society When It Glorifies And Rewards Those Who Litigate While It Demonizes And Punishes Those Who Produce The Drugs And Devices That Keep It Citizens Alive And Well.

Most People Who Call Themselves Conservatives Can't Explain The American Value System.

American Values

I Have Never Written That There Is A Threat Of Fascism In America. I Always Considered The Idea Overwrought. But Now I Believe There Really Is Such A Threat - And It Will Come Draped Not In An American Flag, But In The Name Of Tolerance And Health.

I Am Convinced That Great Ideas That Are Powerfully Presented Can Change A Mind In Five Minutes.

The Left Has Always Sought Single, Non-values-based Explanations For Human Behavior.

Given The Amount Of Unjust Suffering And Unhappiness In The World, I Am Deeply Grateful For, Sometimes Even Perplexed By, How Much Misery I Have Been Spared.

Conservatives Divide The World In Terms Of Good And Evil While Liberals Do It In Terms Of The Rich And Poor.

The Whole American Experiment Has Been Predicated On Giving Individuals As Much Control Over Their Own Lives As Possible.

Want To Raise Children Who Will Be Happy Adults? Teach Them Not To Whine.

Having Travelled To Some 20 African Countries, I Find Myself, Like So Many Other Visitors To Africa Before Me, Intoxicated With The Continent. And I Am Not Referring To The Animals, As Much As I Have Been Enthralled By Them During Safaris In Kenya, Tanzania And Zimbabwe. Rather, I Am Referring To The African Peoples.

Africans Who Immigrate To America Know How Little Racism Exists There. They Suspect It Before Emigrating From Africa, And They Know It After Arriving In America. Indeed, America, The Left's Depiction Of It Notwithstanding, Is The Least Racist Country In The World.

The Love Of Freedom Is Actually An Aberration.

Once One Understands That 'racial Tensions' Is A Euphemism For A Black Animosity Toward Whites And A Left-wing Construct, One Begins To Understand Why The Election Of A Black President Has Had No Impact On Most Blacks Or On The Left.

America Derives Its Laws From Its Constitution. It Derives Its Values From The Bible. We Don't Get Inalienable Rights From The Constitution; We Get Them From God.

Obviously, The Issue For The Left Isn't Aging White Males; It Is Conservatives, Whether They Are Young Or Old, White Or Nonwhite, Male Or Female. If Female Aborigines Were Conservative, The Left Would Have A Problem With Female Aborigines.

If You Inflict Your Unhappiness Onto Others, It Is Sinful

In Attempting To Understand 9/11, The First Question Asked By The World's Elites - As Exemplified By Leading Media And Academics - Was, 'what Did America Do To Provoke Such Hatred?' Ten Years Later, The Same People Are Still Asking The Same Question. And It Is As Morally Repulsive Now As It Was Then. It Was Always On Par With 'what Did The Jews Do To Antagonize The Germans? Or 'what Did Blacks Do To Enrage Lynch Mobs?'

Those Who Don't Fight Evil Hate Those Who Do; And Those Who Don't Fight Real Evils Make Up Little Evils

Leftism Hides Under An Intellectual Veneer, But Underneath It Is All Emotion

Complaining Not Only Ruins Everybody Else's Day, It Ruins The Complainer's Day, Too. The More We Complain, The More Unhappy We Get.

Enough Generations Of Socialist Policies Have Now Passed For Us To Judge Their Effects. They Are Bleak. Socialism Undermines The Character Of A Nation And Of Its Citizens. In Simpler Words, Socialism Makes People Worse.

As You Get Older And Wiser You Realize That When People Are Given Anything Without Having To Earn It (unless They Are Physically Or Mentally Utterly Incapable Of Earning Anything), They Become Ungrateful And Lazy. They Also Become Less Happy.

I Always Believe In Earning Love. I Consider Unconditional Love To Be One Of The Worst Ideas Developed

Unconditional Love

More People Have Done Good In The Name Of God Than Any Other Way

To Say Murder Is Wrong Is As Much A Statement Of Faith As 'i Believe That God Said Murder Is Wrong' Is A Statement Of Faith

Finding Patterns Is The Essence Of Wisdom

The Vote, Punishment... These Ideas Are Anathema To The Liberal Mind

The Election, And Even The Re-election, Of A Black Man As President, In A Country That Is 87 Percent Non-black - A First In Human History - Has Had No Impact On What Are Called 'racial Tensions.'

Leftism And Narcissism Are Almost Synonymous

There Is No Apology From Any Muslim Leader For All The Massacres Of Christians

Happiness Is Dependent On Self-discipline. We Are The Biggest Obstacles To Our Own Happiness. It Is Much Easier To Do Battle With Society And With Others Than To Fight Our Own Nature.

Whenever Possible, The Left And The Democrats Have De-stigmatized Irresponsible Behavior.

Repetition Is The Mother Of Pedagogy

If We Continue To Teach About Tolerance And Intolerance Instead Of Good And Evil, We Will End Up With Tolerance Of Evil.

Therefore The Vast Majority Of The People Who Affirm Leftist Beliefs Think Of Their Views As The Only Way To Properly Think About Life.

The Bigger The Government, The Greater The Corruption

The Biggest Obstacle To People Becoming Better Is That You Have To Really Want To Be A Good Person In Order To Be A Better Person, And Most People Would Rather Be Other Things.

Becoming Better

I Would Bet That The Average Teenager In This Country Has Not Used The Word 'wisdom' In The Past Year

If Anything, We Older People Yearn For A Peaceful World Even More Than Young People Do. We Are The Ones Who Lost Friends Or Relatives In Some War. We Are The Ones Who Have Lived A Lifetime Of Seeing And Reading About Human Suffering.

If You Want To Know What You Look Like, Look Into A Mirror. If You Want To Know How You Think, You Should Write

To Deny That Human Beings Are Filled With Anti-social Passions Betrays A Denial Of Reality And A Lack Of Self-awareness. One Has To Be Taught Nonsense For A Great Many Formative Years To Believe It.

One Of The Great Mind Destroyers Of College Education Is The Belief That If It's Very Complex, It's Very Profound.

Expectations Can Ruin Your Chances For Happiness

Does The Unborn Human Fetus Have At Any Point The Right To Live?

Two Of The Many Areas Of Conflict Between Judeo-christian Values And Leftism Concern The Separation Between The Holy And The Profane And The Separation Between Humans And Animals.

The Words 'i'm Sorry' Are So Powerful That It's Almost Difficult To Overstate

Leftist Big-government Policies Have Been Disastrous For Black America Just As They Were In The Countries That Most Hispanics Emigrated From. But Like The Gambling Addict Who Keeps Gambling The More He Loses, Those Addicted To Government Entitlements Keep Increasing The Size Of The Government Even As Their Situation Worsens.

If The United States Doesn't Lead Then Evil Triumphs

The Further Left You Go, The Meaner The Spirit

As A Result Of The Left's Sympathetic Views Of Pacifism And Because Almost No Welfare State Can Afford A Strong Military, European Countries Rely On America To Fight The World's Evil, And Even To Defend Them

The Bigger The Government, The Less The Citizens Do For One Another. If The State Will Take Care Of Me And My Neighbors, Why Should I? This Is Why Western Europeans, People Who Have Lived In Welfare States Far Longer Than Americans Have, Give Less To Charity And Volunteer Less Time To Others Than Do Americans Of The Same Socioeconomic Status.

It Is A World Of Lies That Permeates The Left

Badmouthing Your Ex-spouse Rips The Child Apart

The Universities Deceive When They Say They Have No Agenda Other Than To Open Minds.

There Is Something About Liberalism That Is Not Nearly As True About Conservatism. The Further Left One Goes, The More One Finds That The Ideology Provides Moral Cover For A Life That Is Not Moral. While Many People Left Of Center Lead Fine Personal Lives, Many Do Not.

The Left Corrupts Everything It Touches

Yet, While Producing Increasingly Selfish People, The Mantra Of The Left, And Therefore Of The Universities And The Media, Has Been For Generations That Capitalism And The Free Market, Not The Welfare State, Produces Selfish People.

In The Biblical Worldview, The Purpose Of All Creation Is To Benefit Man. This Anthropocentric View Of Nature, And Indeed Of The Whole Universe, Is Completely At Odds With The Current Secular Idealization Of Nature. This Secular View Posits That Nature Has Its Own Intrinsic Meaning And Purpose, Independent Of Man.

Of All The Characteristics Needed For Both A Happy And Morally Decent Life, None Surpasses Gratitude. Grateful People Are Happier, And Grateful People Are More Morally Decent.

The Left Needs Causes Like Fish Need Water

It Is Extremely Difficult To Do Anything Constructive, Let Alone Deep, On Daily Commercial Television, Especially On A Talk Show.

Virtually Throughout Its History, And Certainly In The 20th Century, California Has Been Known As The Place To Go For Dynamism And Growth. It Did Not Become The Richest, Most Populous, And Most Productive State Solely Because Of Its Weather And Natural Resources. So It Takes A Lot To Turn California Around From Growth To Contraction, From People Moving Into The State To A Net Exodus From The State, From Business Moving Into California To Businesses Leaving California. It Takes Some Doing. And The Left Has Done It.

Men Need Rule Books. Women Want Men To Intuit What They Want. And Only About 2% Of Men Can Do That, And Most Of Them Are Not Heterosexual.

It Is Easier To Take A Position In The Abstract Than When It Hits Home.

The Libertarian Party Is A Shameful Party

Libertarian Party

My Great Project Is To Undo The Moral And Intellectual Damage Of Most Universities

Without God And Religion You Don't Have Moral Truth, You Have Moral Opinion

This Is The Belief Of The Left: You Negotiate With Evil, And Get Tough With Your Allies

Most Women Are Not Programmed To Prefer A Great Career To A Great Man And A Family. They Feel They Were Sold A Bill Of Goods At College And By The Media.

The Vast Majority Of Those Who Are Famous Are Not Significant And The Vast Majority Of Those Who Are Significant Are Not Famous.

Has Feminism Increased The Pool Of Happy Women?

Much Of The World's Moral Compass Is Broken. The Moral North Reads South And The Moral South Reads North.

The Evidence In This Universe For Design - Or, If You Will, The Fine-tuning That Cannot Be Explained By Chance Or By 'enough Time' - Is So Compelling That The Only Way Around It Is To Suggest That Our Universe Is Only One Of An Infinite Number Of Universes.

The Problem For The Left, However, Is That The Moment It Stops Painting The Right As Vile, It Has To Argue The Issues.

The Easily Embarrassed Doesn't Learn

Whatever The Left Touches-- The Arts; The Economy; Health Care; The Soul; Religion-- It Destroys Or Damages

When I See The Mostly Young People Of Occupy Wall Street - A Mixture Of The Bored, The Nihilistic, The Seekers Of Excitement, The Left-wing True Believers, The Confused Idealists And Those Hoping To Engage In Violence - Railing Against The Rich Capitalists On Wall Street, I Get Worried. Because The Hatred They Express Toward The Rich Is Similar To That Expressed Against The Rich By Stalin, Mao And Pol Pot. Of Course, These People Are Not Comparable To Those Killers. But Class Hatred Must Lead To Bad Things. That Is Why President Obama Is Playing With Fire With His Attacks On The Rich.

The State Of Europe Is So Bad That I Cannot See Any Future In Europe Other Than Its Islamization Or A Civil War

The Left Neither Cares About Prosperity Nor Jobs. It Cares About Equality

The Welfare State Is Predicate Don Collecting Money From Today's Workers In Order To Pay For Those Who Paid In Before Them. But Today's Workers Don't Have Enough Money To Sustain The Scheme, And There Are Too Few Of Them To Do So. As A Result, Virtually Every Welfare State In Europe, And Many American States, Like California Are Going Broke.

With The Demise Of The Biblical Religions That Have Provided The American People With Their Core Values Since Their Country's Inception, We Are Reverting To The Pagan Worldview. Trees And Animals Are Venerated, While Man Is Simply One More Animal In The Ecosystem - And Largely A Hindrance, Not An Asset.

The Left Is Totalitarian In Its Nature

Humility Is A Fantastic Trait And Is One Of The Most Important Things We Can Have

The Welfare State Corrupts Family Life. Even Democrats Have Acknowledged The Destructive Consequences Of The Welfare State On The Underclass. It Has Rendered Vast Numbers Of Male Unnecessary To Females, Who Have Looked To The State To Support Them And Their Children (and The More Children, The More State Support) Rather Than To Husbands. In Effect, These Women Took The State As Their Husband.

The Only Difference Between Your Local College And A Christian Seminary Is That The Latter Is More Honest.

Please Understand What The Irs Scandal Is About: Using The Government To Shut Down Opponents

Liberalism Means Well, But It Destroys

Hillary Clinton Wanted To Hide What She Was Doing So That There Was No Trail

From Their Teenage Years On, Children Are Considerably More Capable Of Causing Parents Unhappiness Than Bringing Them Happiness. That Is One Reason Parents Who Rely On Their Children For Happiness Make Both Their Children And Themselves Miserable.

If We Weren't Born With Anti-social Passions - Narcissism, Envy, Lust, Meanness, Greed, Hunger For Power, Just To Name The More Obvious - Why The Need For So Many Laws, Whether Religious Or Secular, That Govern Behavior?

Our Scientific Age Demands That We Provide Definitions, Measurements, And Statistics In Order To Be Taken Seriously. Yet Most Of The Important Things In Life Cannot Be Precisely Defined Or Measured. Can We Define Or Measure Love, Beauty, Friendship, Or Decency, For Example?

The Human Species Produces A Certain Percentage Of Scum. That Is The Way In Which I Have Understood The World My Whole Life

The More The State Gives To Its Citizens, The Less They Have To Earn. That Is The Basic Concept Of The Welfare State - You Receive Almost Everything You Need Without Having To Earn Any Of It. About Half Of Americans Now Pay No Federal Income Tax - But They Receive All Government Benefits Just As If They Had Paid For, I.e., Earned Them.

Those Who Do Not Confront Evil Resent Those Who Do.
