Lord Monckton’s reply was moving. Gently, and sadly, he said, “We shall lose the West unless we can restore the use of reason to pre-eminence in our institutions of what was once learning. It was the age of reason that built the West and made it prosperous and free. The age of reason gave you your great Constitution of liberty. It is the power of reason, the second of the three great powers of the soul in Christian theology, that marks our species out from the rest of the visible creation, and makes us closest to the image and likeness of our Creator. I cannot stand by and let the forces of darkness drive us unprotesting into a new Dark Age.” Monckton vanquishes Union College “Greens too yellow to admit they’re really Reds”
Lord Monckton’s presentation was riviting. It is a joy to read the words of a man who uses reason in debate.
That was a great article! To be able to quote all these sources and statistics off the cuff is amazing. The guy is a genius.
