But its true - liberalism is literally a death culture. It lives in the past, coasts on in the present and is strangely unconcerned about tomorrow. That's not the underpinnings of a political philosophy that says something to what really matters. And the proponents of radical secularism offer only the easy dole, nihilism, and eventual extinction. Its not like they're all glowing with the bloom of fresh-scrubbed youth. They look more like Andrei Andropov-Ted Kennedy oldsters about to keel over. Its not even a lovely fantasy anymore. Like Ronald Reagan used to be fond of observing, "facts are stubborn things." Indeed.

"...liberalism is literally a death culture."

Truer words were never spoken. Yet, this uniquely western "Culture of Death" philosophical movement, underway for well over five hundred years, continues unabated on its trajectory of death and destruction, with the complicity and participation of the greater majority of westerners themselves. From the rise of secular humanism, to the grief-stricken tragedies of their bloody revolutions and wars, to the creation of the freedom-robbing and slavery-inducing welfare and communist states, to the ultimate end of suicidal self-immolation reflected in the self-loathing negative birth rates of the western nations.

The sweep of western European history, that is, the utter collapse of a once-Christian civilization in its descent to barbarism and its surrender to Moslem dhimmitude, proves beyond the shadow of doubt that the Catholic tradition of Original Sin, the Fall of Man, Christ's Redemption, and the approach of Armageddon is surely true to any but the willfully blind among us (and therefore eternally damned).

It's simple logic--cradle-to-grave support creates cradle-to-grave dependency, and dependency robs us of our creativity, our individualism, and our collective manhood.

Simply contrast the John Wayne-like courage and spirit of our WWII allies in Europe to the spineless, dependent wimps a majority of them they act like, today. Anyone who can generate a calorie of intellectual heat can see the path that "old Europe" is on.

Nothing neuters a man like dependency.
