To admit foreigners indiscriminately to the rights of citizens, the moment they put foot in our country, as recommended in the Message, would be nothing less, than to admit the Grecian Horse into the Citadel of our Liberty and Sovereignty.
Alexander Hamilton (1802)
The unhappy…often seek to destroy their societies. The primary reason is that they attribute their unhappiness to society, not to their own attitudes and choices, the tragedies that periodically darken even happy lives, or their own inability or unwillingness to improve their lot in life.

[A] consequence of devaluing virginity has been the devaluing of marriage. Until the latter half of the twentieth century, one reason men married was that marriage provided the one socially acceptable way to have sex on a regular basis. It was not the only reason men got married—religion and society made marriage and family central values—but now that A) society does not promote marriage, B) religion is dying, and C) many men can get sex with no commitment, fewer Western (and Asian) men and women are marrying than ever before.

They that can give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.
Benjamin Franklin (1759)
T]he United States is no longer a serious nation. America not only no longer protects families, but it also actively keeps parents from protecting their children. America no longer seeks to create a framework for prosperity but rather burdens citizens with crippling inflation and stultifying costs to battle a fictional problem. America no longer seeks to defend herself from invasion or her citizens from vicious, violent criminals. When a nation stops protecting its borders, citizens, and prosperity, it ceases to have the right to be called serious.

The real problem is that workers are not so much underpaid as they are under-skilled. And the real task is to help those people become skilled. Congress cannot do this simply by declaring that as of such-and-such a date, everybody’s productive output is now worth $XXX per hour.
Walter Williams
I will insist that the Hebrews have done more to civilize men than any other nation. If I were an Atheist, and believed in blind eternal Fate, I should Still believe that Fate had ordained the Jews to be the most essential Instrument for civilizing the Nations.
John Adams, second U.S. President, in 1809 letter. Cited by Dennis Prager,The Rational Bible, Deuteronomy: God, Blessings, and Curses, pg.428.
In Romans 1, the Apostle Paul argued that homosexuality opposed God’s creation authority. He did so because God has left a blueprint for sex in our anatomy. Biologically, it’s not hard to see how various parts of our bodies work together. But we deny this blueprint when we apply those parts in ways which they were evidently not designed to be used.

Philosopher Johann Wolfgang von Goethe explained that “no one is as hopelessly enslaved as the person who think’s he’s free.” That’s becoming an apt description for Americans who are oblivious to—or ignorant of—the liberties we’ve lost.

Morality based on the oppressor vs. oppressed model is always going to be a setup for horrors to be justified in its name. It’s merely racism with another face.
