The nature and purpose of free speech

You know your civilisation is in trouble when its political establishment ignores its founding principles. What are the founding principles and practices of the West? Its Judeo-Christian heritage, the militarism it caused and the scientific advances caused by its constant fratricidal wars over religion and territory.

Why was the New World founded? Because the Old World was too crowded and practised the worst forms of Christian on Christian religious persecution.

Why did Christian Europe practise the worst forms of religious persecution?

Because of the schismatic nature of Christianity whose scripture is clearly inferior to both the Old Testament and the Koran. Whatever you think of the Old Testament and the Koran, they at least had the benefit of clarity.

The New Testament did not say one way or another that all Christians should be Catholic nor that they should be Protestants. It certainly did not declare that Christians must believe in the divinity of Christ, or else go to hell.

From an objective and rational standpoint, the Koran completes the revelation of the Abrahamic faiths, or at the very least advances it. The Koran in fact guarantees freedom of belief with 2:256, something that did not occur to the writers of the Bible, but you would not know this the way Muslims behave.

Westerners were not the only people in the world to practise free speech. It was once practised by Chinese emperors for the obvious reason that they did not wish to be deprived of the benefit of knowing what the ugly truth about what people thought of them was. It was for this reason that court advisers were not punished for bringing unwelcome news to the emperor. Free speech is about not shooting the messenger who brings you bad news because we still need to be informed of the error of our ways or of the true gravity of the situation.

Now the West is following the suicidal path rejecting the principles it used to follow that made it great. Free speech is what enables the free exchange of ideas allowing solutions to problems to be discussed or even the prevention of great catastrophes. It is feminazis who most want free speech abolished. It is men in fear of feminazis who allow them to trash this most fundamental of Western traditions.

All that is needed to save the West from its escalating folly is for the boy to say that the empress has no clothes. Who dares wins. I dare, but do not wish to take the credit entirely for myself, Alt-Right YouTuber.
