THE VOICE OF REASON
Solon, (born c. 630 BCE—died c. 560 BCE), Athenian statesman, known as one of the Seven Wise Men of Greece (the others were Chilon of Sparta, Thales of Miletus, Bias of Priene, Cleobulus of Lindos, Pittacus of Mytilene, and Periander of Corinth). Solon ended exclusive aristocratic control of the government, substituted a system of control by the wealthy, and introduced a new and more humane law code. He was also a noted poet.
I define nationalism as government in the national interest.
Everyone lives under a government of one kind or another. In whose interest should the government govern if not in the national interest?
Since all nations need a moral system for social cohesion, it just a matter of choosing the best available religion.
Would Immanuel Kant himself deny the universalisability of governments acting in the national interest under universal principles designed to promote world peace through being a peaceable nation?
Since there have been Pax Romana, Pax Britannica and Pax Americana, why not Pax Islamica?
It was after all America that dealt Christianity the mortal blow of separating the church from its state with the First Amendment, and the First Amendment was based on quran.com/2/256
2:00 The difference between Christian reasoning and Jewish and Muslim reasoning
2:45 Christian values
3:00 Christian values that Baruch finds abhorrent
3:45 Christianity is about saying you believe things which you may not necessarily believe in to be one of the gang, Judaism and Islam is about actually doing things in a rule-based way.
4:30 "The more disturbing aspects of fundamentalist Christianity" - the threat of hell
8:00 The universal love of Christianity
9:00 Islam is also claims this
9:15 Ditto Judaism
10:00 Eastern religions are not monotheist at all.
11:00 If you don't believe in the Trinity, you are not Christian
12:00 Justice and Love
14:00 Compassion for the criminal
14:30 The mumsy view of Christianity: forgive everything, tolerate everything
16:00 The idolatry and blasphemy of the Trinity
17:00 Jews are understandably shy of pointing out to Christians the idolatry of Christianity bearing in mind their tradition of persecuting of Jews
17:30 The chaos of Christianity according to Baruch
18:30 Jews and Muslims pray to the ineffable Abrahamic God, while Christians pray to an executed revolutionary or his mum
19:30 God is rather more than the mumsy comforting woman who is your mate's mum that you might bump into at the supermarket
20:00 Shavuot - the cosmic marriage between God and Jews https://www.huffingtonpost.com/levi-benshmuel/shavuot-love-lessons-from_b_872203.html
The Bible also says this about God: “And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart” https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Genesis+6%3A6&version=NIV
23:00 Secular Koranism is just a boring little idea to prop up the patriarchy and deprive you of extramarital sex to continue the existence of your tribe, society, nation and civilisation
26:00 Marriage is a eugenic game of musical chairs being played from generation to generation
27:00 Conservatism
28:00 Gay marriage
29:00 Flexible monogamy is a lower standard than traditional marriage
30:00 John Major's Back to Basics campaign
30:30 The meaninglessness of unprincipled mainstream of Conservatism which brought in gay marriage under a Conservative Prime Minister
32:00 But for Judaism, Jews would not exist.
33:00 Marriage is an institution for all advanced civilisations, not just for the Abrahamic faiths
34:00 The nihilism of atheism and childlessness
35:00 If Baruch had children, he would want to pass on Judaism to his offspring
37:00 The benefit of having a cultural identity imposed on you even if you reject it at the time or subsequently reject it
39:00 Tradition is what we do to please our fathers.
40:00 White nationalists don't even have a cultural identity to reject and now have to go about creating an identity that they can accept and they cannot agree on this. Most are antisemites, many are not even Christian, and those who want to regress into paganism will not have the support of the majority. White nationalism is dead in the water if white nationalists refuse to acknowledge the need to restore the patriarchy and continue to reject the utility of organised religion.
42:00 Spiritual self-transcendence
45:00 Football matches
46:00 Football chants and war cries https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SxL24XYFV7w
"By 1996, 70 percent of inmates in state juvenile detention centers serving long-term sentences were raised by single mothers. Seventy-two percent of juvenile murderers and 60 percent of rapists come from single-mother homes. Seventy percent of teenage births, dropouts, suicides, runaways, juvenile delinquents, and child murderers involve children raised by single mothers. Girls raised without fathers are more sexually promiscuous and more likely to end up divorced. A 1990 study by the Progressive Policy Institute showed that after controlling for single motherhood, the difference between black and white crime rates disappeared."
Israeli Zionist nationalist Yoram Hazony explains the rigged game of debate on Western university campuses where truth, logic and morality are always defeated by the undergirding of the immovable rock of irrational emotions and the mulish determination to ignore truth and logic. https://t.co/Uk9QxZXaB7
Yoran Hazony the Israeli nationalist philosopher examines the interaction between what is objective (eg events, places, buildings) and what is abstract (eg borders, national identity, trust in our government) as well as matters in dispute (eg disputed borders). https://t.co/ZfDO7z1CPg
Yoram Hazony says it is impossible to wish away an event. The student from Cornell persists: is it possible to wish away the Holocaust since it is in dispute? https://t.co/DyIUQwf7Ew
Yoram Hazony the nationalist philosopher makes an interesting point about Israel before and after it came into existence and the Soviet Union before and after it went out of existence. https://t.co/tJzcMeiTyE
Yoram Hazony: The Tanakh gives rise to the idea of a nation-state. John Stuart Mill thought it was his idea but it is in fact a Biblical idea. The idea of the Jewish state depends on the idea of the nation state. The nation state is the path to human freedom. https://t.co/tJzcMeiTyE
Yoram Hazony says the idea of Israel as a Nazi State did not come out of nowhere. There are indeed some parallels, he admits. EU member states prepared ot give up the idea of their own nation states are now demanding Israelis do the same too. No way, Jose! https://t.co/ESSnSrultC
Yoram Hazony talks about libtard Europeans sneering at Zionist nationalism. Good question from student asking "But why do they defend Palestinian nationalism?" The answer seems to be that the libtards mean to mother the Palestinian terrorists. https://t.co/6d73phoiAg
A nation state is a violation of the idea of universal internationalism and therefore a violation of Kantian metaphysics, which says only something universal can be necessary or true. https://t.co/ianlKKam6t
Geert Wilders the Zionist and Islamophobe is discussed. Hazony understands his concerns. Yoram Hazony says he'd like to help the Dutch and the English retain their national identiy and doesn't want England swallowed up by some French-German conglomeration. https://t.co/6WPpYBaGRj
Yoram Hazony doesn't want European nation states to be replaced by another universalist European empire just like all the previous ones. He wants to avoid a universalist Kantian empire and a fascistic backlash. https://t.co/UZS1AE7Jii
The concept of God exists. What are the next questions that ought to occur to you?
Is believing in God useful to Man?
Does a general belief in God assist in the task of creating social cohesion?
Does a general belief in God assist Man in his politics, morality and spirituality?
If there is a general belief in God through whom morality is generally instilled into the populace, is this not useful and good even to the atheist?
Do societies that believe in God do better and last longer than societies that do not believe in God?
Does a general belief in God protect a society from the depredations of feminism, free love and widespread illegitimacy leading to racial and national degeneracy?
Is a general belief in God the only way of protecting a society from the depredations of feminism, free love and widespread illegitimacy leading to racial and national degeneracy?
"We must with caution indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion." Was George Washington right in saying this?
If God is necessary to Man, then it must be necessary for Man to believe in God, or at any rate behave as if He exists by obeying His commandments Do you agree?
It is quite clear that Western philosophers have been asking themselves the wrong question for centuries, the fools.
Is Western philosophy fit for purpose?
Do Western philosophers even know what purpose they are supposed to serve, or are they too up their own arses talking their own language in their ivory towers to give a shit what the rest of us think?
Would you give a job to someone whom you suspect of being a philosophy graduate or would you shoot him on sight no questions asked?
Is an academic philosopher a waste of skin and space?
Is this question capable of being asked by Western philosophers, much less answered honestly and honourably?
''God is the only Being who does not have to exist to rule''
Charles Baudeliare
God is the most powerful idea known to man and it is for this reason that it would be a terrible waste not to use such an idea to make life better for all of us.
The delicious paradox of this statement is that it frankly acknowledges that it was Man who created God. Therefore ideas can become more powerful than the conceiver of it, and take on an independent life of their own.
"Allahu Akbar" literally translates as "God is greater."
I wondered to myself why they do not say "God is great" in Arabic, or "God is the greatest."
But fill in the blanks and you will see the hidden meaning:
"God is greater than His Creation [ie Man, who created Him]."
