Modern people so easily dismiss God because of the presence of evil in the world. Without realizing it, the notion of evil implies that there is a standard of goodness that has been violated. Who then decides the standard of goodness?
Richard E. Simmons III, Reflections on the Existence of God, pg. 22
I am concerned for the security of our great Nation; not so much because of any threat from without, but because of the insidious forces working from within.
Douglas MacArthur
If you will not fight for the right when you can easily win without bloodshed; if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.
Winston Churchill, The Gathering Storm.
The ultimate decision about what is accepted as right and wrong will be made not by the individual human wisdom but by the disappearance of the groups that have adhered to the “wrong beliefs.”
Friedrich August Von Hayek (1899-1992)
There’s plenty of evidence proving that a family consisting of a man/husband, a woman/wife, and a child or children is our societal bedrock. On the other hand, children suffer in fatherless households. And we certainly know that allowing children to undergo hormone therapy or even sex-change operations makes them far more vulnerable to emotional and psychological turmoil. And we know that a nation founded on the belief in God-given rights is a nation in decline when it allows tens of millions of preborn children to be ripped from the womb.
Brian Mark Weber, Religious Liberty for Popular and Sound Ideas
Do we not care about what is true? Are we afraid to look reality in the eye because it may take us in a direction we don’t want to go? I believe this is one of the great flaws in our human character. We stubbornly hold on to our beliefs because they generally reflect how we want life to be rather than how life actually is. For this reason, evidence does not seem to matter.
Richard E. Simmons III, Reflections on the Existence of God, pg. 7
Liberty is meaningless where the right to utter one’s thoughts and opinions has ceased to exist. That, of all rights, is the dread of tyrants. It is the right which they first of all strike down.
Frederick Douglass
Once a government is committed to the principle of silencing the voice of opposition it has only one way to go and that is down the path of increasingly repressive measures until it becomes a source of terror to all its citizens and creates a country where everyone lives in fear.
Harry S. Truman
Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.
Voltaire.
The culture of the LEFT continues to force people to believe absurdities such as same-sex “marriage,” mathematics is racist, there are more than two genders, and even that a man can change to a woman and a woman to a man.
Those who seek absolute power, even though they seek it to do what they regard as good, are simply demanding the right to enforce their own version of heaven on earth, and let me remind you they are the very ones who always create the most hellish tyranny.
Barry Goldwater
If God does not exist, then you are just a miscarriage of nature, thrust into a purposeless universe to live a purposeless life.
William Lane Craig, "The Absurdity of Life Without God," Radix, Vol.1/No.1
The inherent problem with science is that it requires objectivity. And objectivity is the thing that leftists hate for the same reason that any cult does. Objectivity asserts that we can find the truth by stepping back from our beliefs and emotions in any field from journalism to particle physics.
Daniel Greenfield, “No Objectivity Please, We’re Leftists”
Slave owners and slave traders should make reparations to those whom they enslaved. The problem, of course, is that slaves, slave owners and slave traders are all dead.
Walter E. Williams
I want to also point out that it was Africans who sold other Africans into slavery, so why don't the people in the "reparations" movement take their claims to Africa?
