You can say that again. To think Great Britain once ruled the civilized world and was both feared and respected. Now it's a laughing stock.
Mrs. Thatcher was probably the last prime minister who understood that liberalism isn't just ineffective. It's evil. It dehumanizes people. It's immoral. The rioters are neither poor nor downtrodden. They are immoral.
Western Civilization has been coasting for decades on its Judeo-Christian past. Today's generations no longer know how we got here or why, and I think the cultural train has finally jumped the tracks.
Totalitarian government is the end result if people cannot govern their own evil impulses. That's where Britain (and the US) is ultimately headed, because liberty is doomed if people don't return to Judeo-Christian concepts of individual morality and responsibility.
We need God.
“Mrs. Thatcher was probably the last prime minister who understood that liberalism isn’t just ineffective. It’s evil.”
And she was liberal by the standards we consider to be conservative.
You are right...’We need God’.
Amen.
