David Warren on Eastern Canadian Voters

 “The electorate of eastern Canada. It is like a woman who has been beaten too often by the same violent man, who for his birthday, presents him with a fresh cudgel.”

David Warren on the true enemies of mankind.

 The true, and the most wicked, enemies of mankind, are the people who think they know what they are doing. They should be spotted, tried, and condemned. For, the beginning of political wisdom is to know, with holy certainty, that you don’t know.

You’re going to Hell!

 The way I think of it, telling someone they’re going to Hell is tolerant.  For to me, tolerance means putting up with something you don’t like.  It’s only intolerant if you try to genocide the thing and offer it no hope of redemption.

That being said, intolerance can be good.  Tolerating evil is no virtue and is probably cowardly.

It is too much to ask for acceptance.  Acceptance is not a synonym for tolerance.  The tolerant are unaccepting.

Literally Trump

Eremition: an interesting word


 Does this mean Eremite is a verb?  That is to eremite means to gradually fade from the life of others…

I don’t think I could do this.  I can fade away and I am in a situation where I am fading away from others but it’s from a resignation tinged with bitterness.
