Actually, no...I see friends, neighbors and fellow Americans. You know -- people. I'm not fixated on race as a way to divide us, like you and the USSC are. Besides, I don't get out much.
The semantical microscope always tires and bores me. I didn't say not to discuss race. The USSC ruling is divisive and offensive to me. So are your personal insults.
Hmmm...the only part of my post you didn't microscopically examine was my suggestion on reading material. Mind like a steel trap...closed.
"However, what you -- and many people -- do not acknowledge is the singular importance in the development of those ideals into what has become the American vision of English philosophy and the classical liberal tradition which is almost exclusively the product of the British Isles. With respect to all of the other cultures and languages that go into the American melting pot, lose the essentially Anglo-Saxon attachement to individual rights and liberty, the Anglo-Saxon nonconformists suspicion of state religion, and the commitment to empiricism and an essentially Whig intepretation of history, and you will destroy this country.""Continental philosophy - whether the Thomist synthesis, Cartesianism or the later German and French system-builders just don't do the same things, they are compatible with fascism and tyranny in a way English thought is not. Come ye from anywhere, be ye of any creed or color, but understand, for all our faults, we've got the basics right here -- don't mess with them."
"My point is that the arivees of diverse origins should not try to remake this country in the images of the places they left because this country was more attractive."
Could you please point me out to one of these "personal insults"?
There are none, from me to you that is...there are plenty coming from you to me.
I'd say you're projecting here.
