My FRiend, I looked at the past three German elections. They were utterly DOMINATED by left wing and MORE left wing groups.
I don’t see a Germany up to the task. They voted in over and over the people who allowed these policies to continue.
they are having almost no children. they have no weapons.
I haven’t found a reason or an article yet to make me think tens of millions of Germans are going to stand up and fight for their country.
and sooner rather than later, they will be utterly outnumbered. in a generation or two.
They are not America. America is a special country, even with the powers that be trying to dilute us for 50 years because of Ted Kennedy’s disgusting deceitful immigration changes.
I don't see any culture allowing itself to be destroyed via immigration and not, at some point, fighting hard.
It would be contrary to human nature. I think a violent break from liberal democracy is building and will eventually prevail.
The answer of course is that when the West ceases to be Christian nothing will remain, as Sponville knows. There will be no common glue to hold Westerners together and nothing left worth living or dying for. The strangely twisted, suicidal atmosphere of our age is the "death of God" made tangible and it is Nietzsche who describes our meaningless, disordered, ugly, atonal, brutal, upside-down climate of nothingness:
"We have killed him (God), you and I! ...But how have we done it? How were we able to drink up the sea? Who gave us the sponge to wipe away the whole horizon? What did we do when we loosened this earth from its sun? Whither does it now move? Whither do we move? ...Do we not dash on unceasingly? Backwards, sideways, forwards, in all directions? Is there still an above and below? Do we not stray...through infinite nothingness? Does not empty space breathe upon us? ...Does not night come on continually, darker and darker?" (Nihilism: The Root of the Revolution of the Modern Age, Eugene Rose, p. 108)
Such is the theater of the absurd in which there is neither up nor down, male nor female, right nor wrong, true nor false, normal nor abnormal because the living God is dead, and while America and the West drift aimlessly in "infinite nothingness" nihilism progressively dissolves the foundation of soul, mind, worth, morality, family, and individual liberty.
And this is the nihilism feared by Comte, who clearly perceives that it plays into the hands of radical Muslims, who without opposition will impose totalitarian Sharia on the West. Already Western nihilists have essentially surrendered large areas of W. Europe to Muslims. Here in America they're are allowing a mosque to be built at the Twin Towers site, and they now agree that American soldiers can be prosecuted for burning a Koran and military chaplains for speaking out loud the name Jesus Christ.
Though every page of Sponville's book speaks clearly of his inner conflicts, contradictory reasoning, and multitude of fears, such as his terrifying fear of falling into a yawning abyss waiting just beneath his feet, Sponville nevertheless retains enough presence of mind to see that if, as with the international Progressive 'elite," we believe that nothing remains, "we might as well throw in the towel at once." (p. 29)
I don’t think our fate will be very different from Germany; we have few children (American children, that is), and plenty of the replacement Americans have no objection to gun control (or any other part of the leftist agenda here). We are a special country, but with each passing year are “less special” as Americans die and are replaced with Third Worlders. Our immigration no longer comes from European countries that overthrew their monarchies and demanded representative government; instead, they come from other parts of the world where absolute dependence on government is the norm.
