Upcoming threshold

I have a "significant" birthday upcoming this month. Has made me think about the course of my life. Which started out more or less like this: with my little horse, sitting in my chair backward and apparently making a speech, something I still like to do. Cute little fella. Caption?

"If you've heard this story before, don't stop me, because I'd like to hear it again.”

OK, I know it's not original, but it's from a great 20th Century thinker---just like this 21st Century blogger.; 8:24 PM, March 02, 2008

Oops.

"but it's from a great 20th Century thinker---just like this 21st Century blogger."

Thanks...does this mean that I am a great 20th century thinker? Or that I am a great thinker?

But the fact that I am not sure casts aspersions on the ascription.

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.
