No - you described a change in material conditions, and not a change in consciousness, which is what I am referring to. There is a change in conscious...
Did you know Cicero was a conservative Ciceronianus? ;) I disagree with you about Burke - whose favorite philosopher was none other than Cicero in fac...
None. All previous systems of government of the sort I am talking about have been regional and geographical, generally governing a majority of people ...
I speak against a certain kind of atheism which is popular. I have little to quarrel with the pious atheism of Epicurus for example. I have something ...
I meant to tell you that this framework through which you see the world - this framework through which you look at, feel and perceive the world, namel...
I didn't say I want to return to the pope being both king and spiritual leader though. Yes - some of them are the same. Not all of them, and my views ...
Ok no worries. I think it depends on what is meant by atheist. See I claim to believe in God now. But for quite a long time I identified as an atheist...
That is because, following Nietzsche, all that you see in morality is another tool to dominate others. To have power. You see in morality a power stru...
There are a series of tenets that all those who have been classified as reactionaries adhere to, that I don't. I'm just informing you that it is intel...
Okay your government, a group of people, tell you, through your own understanding of the written law not to steal. You go ahead and steal. There are c...
My sort of conservatism isn't reactionary - nowhere near close to people like Julius Evola, Nick Land, or even Benito Mussollini, all of whom have acc...
It is a command. Kill and you shall suffer says the command. How will you suffer? Well because by killing someone you will do violence towards your ow...
Or spoken for that matter. Nature speaks to you in a different way - through your conscience, through your desires, etc. If you rationally organise th...
Why do you think so? What if the commands are present in nature - in your own nature, and in my own nature, and in everybody's nature? What if our nat...
lol... it doesn't matter who the President is so long as justice gets done my friend. In fact, I would rather not be President - I would rather not be...
Thanks for the kind words! :) lol - did you miss me? :D Well John, are you planning to be a cold-blooded serial killer who brutally and viciously rape...
Social order means respect for spirituality and religion (not one particular religion but any), promotion of community based life and care for others,...
Conservatism is tied to social order, which does require hierarchy, but not an immutable hierarchy. It is tied to promotion of culture and tradition -...
You speak about Hellas Reborn - well if you want Hellas Reborn then you have to accept the culture which made Hellas possible in the first place. It w...
It's not. There's totalitarianism on one side (think ISIS or North Korea), secular progressivism (decadence) on the other, and conservatism in the mid...
Right. Burke opposed slavery, Burke opposed colonial barbarity and injustice, Burke opposed the imposition of Christianity over other peoples, and des...
This is not the Greek view at all. You have to take yourself out of the modern consciousness - the modern way of seeing and feeling the world. You hav...
It's not a cessation of the decision at all. Extreme violence, barbarity, murdering, raping, pillaging, etc. are evil. And God doesn't decide what is ...
That's because of the definition of happiness you have adopted. If you look at Aristotle's for example - eudaimonia in Greek - and study Ancient Greek...
Public execution is reserved for the worst of crimes as I have illustrated, NOT for all criminals or small crimes, and public means it is shown to the...
Yes I agree because of the effect torturing someone has on the one doing the torturing AND also because evil should not be played with, nor its influe...
Virtue is the only thing which is under your control. If we are to judge the excellence of a human being, then it must be judged on a scale where all ...
Developing virtue and character - that's the only thing worth striving for. Of course that requires you engage in a multitude of other actions and beh...
Virtue is my ethical foundation. Virtue is the one and only thing that can never be lost, nothing can take it away from you (unless of course you give...
I don't disagree with it in the sense of I want to abolish it tomorrow. I disagree with it in the sense that I think we should gradually move towards ...
Yes no wonder after the great stupidity, both strategical and otherwise, that they have displayed, the US is very dangerous. An idiot with a lot of po...
Hmmm personally I am for better collaboration and respect of Islamic culture (as I would be towards any other religion), including respect AND ENCOURA...
I was talking about slavery as understood by the Ancients - referring mainly to Aristotle and Plato. Yes of course there were cases where slavery was ...
Ancient slavery was a completely different phenomenon from industrial age slavery which is the idea all of us have in our minds when we think of slave...
I perfectly agree that there also exists a biological basis for sexual practices. I probably disagree with you a little over the nuts and bolts of it,...
Yes if you're not interested in the transcendental, like you seem not to be, indeed, then my claim (or that of other people for that matter) is irrele...
Yes, so what? You're not speaking to "people" - you're speaking to me. So why does it matter what they say? That's clearly nonsensical given the defin...
No actually they don't disagree. There is no major world religion which claims that sexual partners should be promiscuous or otherwise be unfaithful t...
And honour killing your daughter is NOT transcendental - neither is following the teachings of Prophet Mohammed. These are actions, which may be initi...
A statement is not trasncendental, no. What the statement refers to may be transcendental. Following a way isn't one of those things. Values, meanings...
No - actually they don't. There's social traditions - such as women have to wear the hijab - and then there's VALUES - such as women have to dress DEC...
Well sir, if you hold it axiomatically that there is no proof that can be offered, then you have been quite disingenuous in asking me to offer you one...
Sir, I take it then that you have a better idea of what proof of the transcendent should consist in. So please go ahead and outline it for me, and ple...
Ok perfect, so it seems you agree with the definition then. Fine! So if we know what the transcendental is, what would count as adequate proof given i...
