Our nation was founded under the principle that all were equal under the eyes of the law and under God. That does not mean that we all have the same abilities and that we should all have the same amount of wealth. What it does mean is that the Constitution applies to EVERYONE in our country regardless of economic class, race, region or gender.

And why is the west the most compassionate? Because of the principles of Western Civilization. Derived from the Christian doctrine that all men were equal under the eyes of God. Derived from the individualism of John Locke and Adam Smith.

To defeat a faith, you need a faith. What is ours? Individualism, democracy, pluralism, la dolce vita? Can they overcome a fighting faith, 16 centuries old, and rising again?Buchanan is right - again.
