ex cathedra: Sublime or ridiculous?

Sublime or ridiculous?

With apologies to Bernini and St Teresa

We have changed in ways that invited us to let go of who we thought we were. Surrendering to the Spirit, we awakened to new understandings that touched our deepest core.

A great example of the kind of high falutin' but low aimin' lingo that women are especially good at, the above creepily erotic hypersentences are from a long auto-panegyric on how American Catholic nuns stuck in the 60's and 70's imagined themselves to be re-discoverers of the lost Gospel of Jesus but instead just became leftwing feminist Democrat social workers in pantsuits who never met a liberal Zeitgeist du jour they did not love.

Was that unkind?

More from Sister Bloviata.

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.
