Faith and family should indeed take precedence over unrestrained capitalism. On the other hand, there is that reference to paleo"conservatism." The foreign policy (if we may call it such" of the paleo"conservatives" is the pantywaist foreign policy permanently discredited by the late British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain and his infamous and utterly naive idea of "Peace in our time" which he expected to result from handing the Sudetenland to Hitler.

Other than that potential problem, Dreher was a terrific writer for the New York Post and the rest of what is expressed in the article makes it likely that the book should be read by textured conservatives determined to preserve and expand Western Civilization. Getting one's kids out of the maw of the gummint skewels to be homeschooled by parents who love them and will impart wisdom, substantial knowledge unavailable at gummint skewels, and a fighting spirit is a BIG strategy which will guarantee future leadership to family, Church, nation and civilization. Let's help Dreher make it reality.

You have highlighted one of my key issues with Paleo Con thinking. Isolationism is utopian idiocy. It might have worked in the days of sails and horses but with technology it was made obsolete.
