Peel back the thin and translucent layer of stuff and find a vastly deeper and more vital conflict between men who would be gods or druids to empty nature-worship and people who have immortal souls and know the infinite importance of that truth.

EXCERPTS:

America is a rich nation which is being drained and hobbled by those who hate it with unbridled venom.  “God damn America!” Obama’s preacher screeched.  All over the world and all over our nation, grotesque little monsters frown and sneer at our country.

Why do leftists here create phantasms like global warming and demand holy altars to worship dirt?  Why do they ignore the ghastly deconstruction of wholesome youth, which is the sole aim of state-controlled education and culture?  It has nothing to do with money or with markets or with any other aspect of conventional economics.

Stuff cannot give us purpose or peace.  Any society which focuses on “stuff” will end up, whether as rich as Beverly Hills or as poor as Havana, worshipping false gods and living horrible lives. When Republicans say that “jobs” is the only real issue, when Republicans seem to believe that prenatal infanticide, snickering defamation of Judeo-Christian faith, or flaying of family in the torture chambers of leftism is a distraction, let us hope that they do not mean it.

the heart of our battle to defend our way of life would not end if next year we found a way to synthetically create all we might want without any effort beyond our wishing for it.
