This whole lie about races and racism has got all the sheep brainwashed. I brought this up on the rogoff page and they laughed, they scoffed, they mocked - but no one could bring any scientific or philosophical evidence that races EVEN EXIST!

You really need to slap down the guy who wrote this, then:

<When people talk about racism they mean white people hating black people. In reality, the problem with the black community in America is black racism. Racism against whites is pervasive in the black community, from the pulpit to the president.>>

I wrote that in 2013, and I told you, and the board on Rogoff, that I have recently realized what I am declaring now; that races and racism does not exits.

I made posts about my thoughts on this as it they were changing, and noted it then and now, so what exactly is your point?

I notice by the way that you <jim bartle> agree with me, that if you are walking down the street and hear footsteps behind you, and you think you may be robbed, and then you turn around to see white people and feel relieved - that is NOT racism.

I posted about this already so you have NO thunder.

But now I realize that racism does not exist and that no one can provide either scientific or philosophical evidence that races even exist.

On the other hand, I supplied references from SEP, both scientific and philosophical to support my point.

I don't have a huge problem with the concept if as much as the incredibly hypocritical application of what is race and racism by it's loudest most obnoxious supposed opponents who are usually the proponents and are racist by any reasonable definition. This predicated only if assuming race other than human is valid on any level. Yet humans like horses and dogs etc... can be put into various species or breeds if one desires to do so, defined by certain defined phenotypical attributes from various geographical locations. Darwin in his "Descent of Man" thought certain that the European <"race"> being superior <"more evolved"> would follow the course of nature and exterminate those races less fit and so survival of the fittest would play itself out. His nephew Francis Galton would bring us Eugenics and the concepts needed to expedite the advancement of mankind. Hitler and Stalin would put this into practice at the national level and even global scale with brutally cruel and devastating effects on humanity. Either one of them have murdered more people then have all religions including the violent Islam throughout all of recorded human History. Sobering but also very much ignored fact by humanists the radical left. I have even touched on the deaths and bloodshed from abortion.

So as we were, God says men are all brethren, and we should do unto others as we would want done to ourselves. The philosophies governing our world and media only superficially, in practice they are racists to the core.

This is something I bring up every time an atheist says something intelligent like, "Religion is stupid! It causes wars and more people have died because of stupid religious wars than for any other reason!"

You know how they think.
You know how they are.

This is a thorough repudiation of Obama's insane liberal policies that everyone hates. Political correctness has been cast into outer darkness. It's time to say Merry Christmas again now that evil has been dethroned.

Christians can come out of hiding and not have to walk on eggshells. Imagine being told that Merry Christmas is offensive, but it's not offensive to have late-term abortions and gay marriage shoved down out throats.

The systematic, encroaching censorship of Christian thought is not offensive but "Merry Christmas" is, under the evil one, Obama.

Does anyone doubt that this was the most evil man to sit in the White House? He dumps all over our friends, our allies, Israel, and gives BILLIONS to the "Death to America" country, along with the Nuke Deal.

How many white guys got off the couch to vote this time around because they can see how much the Obama's hate them? Michelle Obama was never proud of America until Barack was elected.

For 8 long years we wanted OUR America back, and now we have it back!

Classical liberalism is a political ideology that values the freedom of individuals, including the freedom of religion, speech, press, assembly, and markets, as well as limited government.

"Australia is one of the few countries in the world where one can call oneself a liberal and mean it."

http://theconversation.com/australi...

"No ideas have been more important to Australia’s political development, both in the colonial era and in the period since federation on 1 January 1901, than Liberalism and liberal values. They were the motivating force in the campaigns in the various colonies for self-government during the nineteenth century. They provided the philosophical foundations for the federation itself and, more especially, the Constitution upon which it is based."

"In Australia, Liberalism has virtually never been defined in ideological or even doctrinal terms. It has always ... embraced a range of values central to the political, social and economic life of the nation. Prominent among these values are constitutionalism, representative and responsible government, bicameralism and federalism..."

"Whether in the political, social or economic spheres of life, Australian Liberalism has supported and advocated the rights and freedoms of individuals, especially when threatened by collectivist views and organisation. Individual liberties, the right to vote and participate in political life, to hold and voice opinions, to seek and take advantage of opportunities to prosper, to make choices about life and its course, are at the heart of Liberalism..."

Now clearly true classical liberalism bears no resemblance to that litany of politically correct extremist ideologies you presented, almost all of which reflect an acute intolerance of the very essence of liberalism.

In this country, liberalism and political correctness go hand in hand. It's madness writ large.

Conservatism has a different essence now too. Back in the days of Locke, conservatism implied support for monarchism whereas today it doesn't.

There is something about our liberalism that is connected to sin and sinful desires, as well as an inability to reason soundly and have common sense. The Islamic State is not Islamic, for instance.

Since we more or less agree up to this point, it may be interesting to discuss the liberalism of Locke's time and how it came about as well as how it relates to the enlightenment period, and how that new way of thinking is or is not harmonious with a theistic worldview. On the back end of this topic lies postmodernim as a reaction to modernism which is tied into the enlightenment.

<Conservatism has a different essence now too. Back in the days of Locke, conservatism implied support for monarchism whereas today it doesn't.> So how would you define conservatism today?

<There is something about our liberalism that is connected to sin and sinful desires, as well as an inability to reason soundly and have common sense. The Islamic State is not Islamic, for instance.> Yes, we keep getting that incongruity shoved down our thoats too, but only the most gullible are swallowing it. Most Australians know better and are in favour of a ban on muslim immigration.

It's like one of your 'definitions' from the previous post... <Liberalism pretends they are for gay rights, then they defend policies that allow Muslim immigration to the US, and these people toss gays off roofs.> That's not liberalism, but there are people in this country who maintain that same view!? I suspect these people are genuinely for gay rights, but they are extremists who see Christianity as the enemy, and take the view that 'my enemy's enemy is my friend' which leads them to cosy up with Islam. However it will be too late for them if Islam ever takes control because they will be shocked to find their newfound muslim 'friends' are not quite so tolerant towards their gay lifestyle as they might have hoped!

<... it may be interesting to discuss the liberalism of Locke's time and how it came about ...> Yes, it may shed light on how liberalism is understood today by various groups in different countries.

Interestingly, although Locke was an advocate of religious tolerance, he excluded atheism from this ideal because he believed it would undermine society. Likewise, he was intolerant of Catholicism due to an exaggerated suspicion of papal interference.
