Loss of bearings
Mar. 28th, 2004 12:02 amNowadays claim there are no pure good and no pure evil is followed by there are no good and no evil. What replaces why.
Word backward in relation to culture is forbidden. Some Spanish writer even contemplated that American pioneers should have had to adopt native culture (arcane art of building wigwams, I suppose) and create new culture on that basis.
Instead of killing animals for fun is bad PETA claims killing animals is equal to killing humans.
Neo-conservators just try to restore and adjust the old bearings. But what can revive a liberal position? Clearly human rights concept - the cornerstone of liberal thinking - is broken. How to fix it? What can replace it? I don't know.
