Quote | One step of the current process is that we are going to eventually need an international truth and reconciliation commission on the mass abortion civilisational kulturkampf, which should be associated with tribunals capable of censure and recommendation of loss of credibility for cases of gross ethical violations of the same natural laws that answered to the defendant’s claims to be acting under lawful orders at Nuremburg. But no, I see no reason to bring back the hangman; let our shame as a civilisation and let our shame on record as key enablers, promoters and practitioners be enough — though some may need to be held in protective custody on long term suicide watch. The judgement of history against our era will be grim. KF |

And then we can put god on trial for his part in stillbirths, miscarriages, parasitic twinning, etc, right? Right? |
The debate going on in Billy's thread on the woeful state of debate is definitely enlightening. It is fun to watch them dance around the idea of murder charges laid against women who have abortions, even though that is what the law would require if human rights, especially the right to life, were granted from the point of conception. |
What a wonderful thread!

In this, I absolutely agree with your astute observation. If you will permit, here are a few of the more obvious examples of this:
Quote | March of folly to ruin.
We are at the crumbling edge of a terrible cliff here.
Our civilisation is heading over a cliff
Can we turn back from this crumbling edge of a cliff before it is too late?
This entails that conscience-guided reason is pervaded by grand delusion and lands you in the infinite regress of Plato’s Cave worlds.
Then, you miss the readily demonstrated points that such is both self-falsifying through self-referential incoherence and has long been known to be utterly amoral, thus a gateway to nihilism. |

The very next comment: Quote | 2 kairosfocus March 18, 2017 at 11:55 am WJM, Strong words, but sobering ones providing food for thought (whether or not one agrees with every jot and tittle). We need to go back to first principles of right reason and to sound history, and build from that but too many have been conditioned not to respond to such. That’s a sad pass, but I fear it is exactly what those who have dominated key media and educational institutions have long aimed for. Again, all of this points to the need for reformation. I fear, we will need to go over the cliff for enough pain to be there that a critical mass for reform can have good effect. The cost will be horrific, perhaps fatal to our civilisation in its current relatively free form. Those who take liberty and turn it into licence will lose their freedom. That is what I can see ahead, and that hurts too deeply for words. KF |
