ex cathedra: Waddaya know

Waddaya know

In setting up my new laptop, I thought I should have a Picasa photo site to store photos on. You can use to make animated gifs or slideshows on the blog. When I pressed the relevatn button in Blogger, I found that I already had one...and it had stored every photo I ever put on Ex Cathedra. (Just a small sample below of sexy men, angry Mohammedans and religious icons...and Obama-as-Urkel, who is none of the above)

Plus, it suggested I might like to be Picasa friends with three people...one of whom is a patient of mine! How that connection got made I don't know and I don't like it.

I realize that being online makes "privacy" sort of a thin and funny concept. I justify this by the fact that I have a small readership. Yesterday I spent a very pleasant afternoon with a very nice fella from Alabama, in town for Folsom Street, who has been a regular reader of my blog. When I mentioned that I had had dinner with my ex on Friday, he asked if that was the guy I had just broken up with or the longer term guy from years ago. You realize that once you start talking about your own life on line, there are people who actually pay attention to it!

But the link to my patient's Picasa account, that one threw me.

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.
