You assume an awful lot about what I do and do not understand.

But that's not really relevant: the problem is that it is your statements, not mine, that are morally unsupportable.

For example: "over time we imagine that it was the ideals alone which created the culture."

It was adherence to the ideals that created the culture, and it is the gradual casting off of those ideals that has caused our culture to head toward decadence. Your helpful suggestions for deliberately abandoning the ideals of individual liberty would merely hasten the decline.
