Eugenics is a very difficult subject to discuss rationally despite the fact that conservatives seriously need to address this subject now before it is too late.

Over two years ago I brought up the subject and it didn't seem to phase anyone - but take a look now and tell what is happening around us today.

The Crossing of the Rubicon

The movement is being inadvertently and in some cases directly promoted by our nation's authoritative left. Inadvertently in many respects by the promotion of secularism as somehow being the key to our nation's salvation. This is one of the reasons I was very vocal on my blog regarding the recent CNN documentary "God's Warriors". In all the discussions on the subject, I saw not one that asked the simple question "What is the purpose and the objective behind the documentary?" and the followup question - "Where does this lead us?"

The CNN report presented us with another dilemma and that is "If there exist no moral or ethical hierarchy between the three Abrahamic religions of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam then how do we account for the volatility of so many of Islam's adherents?"

I'm sorry, but I don't agree with the logic that says that people can simply be brainwashed and radicalized to the point that many Islamists are. Either we accept that there is a hierarchy in religion or we have to accept that there is a hierarchy in civilizations.

I sincerely believe that there exists an inherent danger in the belief that "all culturals are equal" that many simply refuse to acknowledge and I'm sorry to admit it, but I honestly believe there are many acquired genetic factors that can affect groups of individuals over generations. It might be diet or climate for example. I think it is foolish that out of fear of being labeled a racist or worse that we would kid ourselves into believing that a society that for generations has subsisted on a diet solely of coconuts and rice could possibly be as intelligent or strong as one that has had a more varied diet.

I've seen some weird things in South and Southeast Asia - I'm sure you've heard the term "run amok" - Well Google the word "amok" and read about it. To this day we still don't understand it. But let me tell you FRiend, I've seen it firsthand and I also am at a complete loss to explain it. It is something that can scare the life out of you.

While there are benefits with regards to eugenics, there is also a slippery slope and that the one being brought up in this thread. I'm sure there are a few here who are going to want to tar and feather me for the comments made in this post - so be it.

In a nutshell, I openly advocate certain specific aspects concerning the study of eugenics and I will be addressing those hopefully in the next few days on my blog. I'm not going to delve deeper into the issue here now for the simple reason that I really need to be prepared to present my thoughts in a clear and concise manner so that they are not misinterpreted.

I didn't expect to write such a long reply - but flame away FRiends. I've pinged a few people who hold lists and might be interested in the subject.

I’m surprised at you. I quoted one of your previous posts on my profile page. This post looks like a complete 180° from that one. But I’m awfully tired right now. Maybe I just misunderstood what you’re saying. I hope so. I’ve known you to be a strong supporter of life.
