What I’ve learned my other thread is that, if I’m for censorship of pornography, I am:
Meanwhile, most of the legitimate arguments against my proposal come down to practical implementation. No other good arguments are given. None of my premises are challenged.
- Authoritarian
- Leftist
- A theocrat
- A moral crusader
- A hypocrite
- Responsible for making people leave the right wing
- Violating people’s rights
- And treacherous to the Constitution
And people wonder why I believe in Thomism.
I don't think your a hipocrite.
But there is a reason why people think your left wing.
Imagine your religion stripped of its rules.
All that stuff that talks about forgiveness, charitity to others, the thou shalt nots? All those restraining bolts gone the faith gone replaced by a new faith that wants to remove all distintions, and this faith doesnt have all of the rules you have that prevent utterally monsterous behavor and does not belive in a higher power.
That is the social justice left.
....
Its the religious impluse perverted into the religion of socialsm.
Essentally they took the role that used to belong to you ursurped your rightful place in the world, thats why your conservative. But you have to remember that the right is more a collection of every one the left fucked over then a coherent philosphy.
Take Captain general (This isn't an insult by the way.)
The captians moral frame work is built upon the idea of stability her goal is a world that is stable where things are not on fire. If the religious impulse threatens said stability she's not going to like it. If the the liberty impulse disrupts that stability she's not going to like it.
My moral frame work is built upon liberty.
I like being free, I just want to live my life with a minimum of people intruding on my private sphere (AKA bossing me around)
I can and will dislike it when people do that.
These three impulses, Stability, Liberty and Equality/the religious impluse stand at a crossroads it is litterally impossible for them not to get in the way. That said for all of our disagreements we kind of have a problem the people who usurped your proper role in life are well.
Bug fuck insane and want to try their horrible ideas out again dispite them failing consistantly over and over again over a period of a hundred years and they are willing to commit any sin nessary for their utopia.
So for this coalition to work out we have to have priorities and for most of us survival beats out any worries about pornography.
