Our universities started being infested in 1880 from the immigrant Germans who infected Columbia U. and all of the elite universities....But it took time....Europe was ahead of us in all aspects of nihilistic Postmodernism. True, Hegel, Kant, Schopenhauer Nietzsche, Marx, etc. etc.—their ideas became dominate here, BUT where did they originate?????? That is where they took hold first.....Germany.
Art is not a mirror held up to reality, but a hammer with which to shape it” ~ Bertolt Brecht
Look at the vile plays that appeared in 1919 in the Weimar Republic.....mainstream society. Very sick!!! And yes, those ideas infected all of Western Civilization. WE did not succumb to the vile filth that was pouring out of the Weimar republic because of the Great Depression. America went back to the Churches.....Germany didn’t...they turned and adored their new god, Hitler. Were there some good Germans? Absolutely....but they turned the corner from majority Christian worldview to a dominate atheist/pagan/occult worldview.
The US is divided...we still have pockets of devout Christians...but the New Agers are destroying those Churches as I am typing. Is there hope for those aborted? Not with the Postmodernists.....only if we get back to God-centered society.
I don’t know what you are so angry about. You feel insulted that I am generalizing....stereotypes exists because of patterns that are obvious and can be measured. I studied many child development approaches. It has been a lifelong interest. I am aware of the uniqueness of every human being but I understand worldview. Only the God-centered ideology give dignity and worth to all people....and babies. Postmodernism is part Darwinism.....we are just “trousered apes”.
BTW, Europe is not reproducing themselves—America is doing the best job in reproduction of any Western country.........so if abortion is such a BIG issue with you-—what in the H8ll is Germany doing?????????????????? Contraception can also be a form of abortion, and it all stems from the same thing.....a godless, nihilism. Unless Western Civilization turns to God, they will be annihilated—that means Germany as well as the US. Yes, I do agree with you, in the fact that we are destroying our cultures...in all of Western Civilization.
Read Dalrymple —he writes about worldview and the consequences.
Having spent some time living in Germany, I would say you are on to something. I can not attest to their parenting skills but the culture is certainly confining.
