Frankly, the Diderot quote can be boiled down to: Morality is destiny.

You noted I put that part of the quote in bold red letters.

It was no highlighted in the original quote.

I’ve been told tht Diderot’s charge to the insurgents was directed to the US, not France.

You might find my response to a friend on twitter over the weekend interesting.

It is out of context, but she agreed totally with me.

“Nations die without the basic building blocks of family, moral values and honesty. Corruption of rule of law is the Klaxon alarm”
