Yes, it leads to a lack of empathy, but I believe individuals with a lack of empathy are responsible for the breakdown of moral codes. Consider all of the pedophiles - such as those who inhabit the North American Man_Boy Love Association (NAMBLA) - who want to have pedophilia removed from the DSM manual of psychological disorders, making it "normal". People such as Pete Singer, William Jefferson Clinton, and many, many others who obviously haven't an empathic bone in their body, or they could never prey upon children the way they do.<br /><br />I am not religious, and am not a Christian, but the Judeo-Christian moral code served Western Civilization well for much of the past two thousand years, and was the basis for the kind of government our country was founded upon. The Left has _deliberately_ been undermining and deconstructing this moral code in order to achieve their agenda. From the Fabians to the current importation of large numbers of muslims - as anti- the Judeo-Christian code as it is possible to get - it becomes obvious that the Left is being driven by real sociopaths (e.g. George "I'll get rich by stripping those Jews of their possessions on the way to the extermination camps" Soros - a "god" in his own mind). If our country can't turn that around, those sociopaths will have won (unless we are somehow able to rise from those ashes).Reg Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14099612693763932005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-80930293787892302602012-01-26T00:17:28.560-05:002012-01-26T00:17:28.560-05:00it;s a fairly gloomy articleit;s a fairly gloomy articleDaniel Greenfieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13575285186581875356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-84158576670200900412012-01-25T22:31:44.288-05:002012-01-25T22:31:44.288-05:00I guess I was to gloomy..huh?I guess I was to gloomy..huh?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-38073478790551086142012-01-25T00:32:26.466-05:002012-01-25T00:32:26.466-05:00I have nothing but despair and gloom running throu...I have nothing but despair and gloom running through my mind.

Specifically, it is the TAXING of non-Muslims in exchange for tolerating their presence AND as a coercive means of converting conquered remnants to Islam. <br /><br />ObamaCare allows the establishment of Dhimmitude and Sharia Muslim diktat in the United States . Muslims are specifically exempted from the government mandate to purchase insurance, and also from the penalty tax for being uninsured. Islam considers insurance to be "gambling", "risk-taking", and "usury" and is thus banned. Muslims are specifically granted exemption based on this. <br /><br />How convenient. So I, as a Christian, will have crippling IRS liens placed against all of my assets, including real estate, cattle, and even accounts receivables, and will face hard prison time because I refuse to buy insurance or pay the penalty tax. Meanwhile, Louis Farrakhan will have no such penalty and will have 100% of his health needs paid for by the de facto government insurance. Non-Muslims will be paying a tax to subsidize Muslims. This is Dhimmitude.BLT31https://www.blogger.com/profile/13476562711977369532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-88566862597776468782011-07-11T08:43:14.216-04:002011-07-11T08:43:14.216-04:00How depressing.

He rejects the concepts of morality and moral agency. He will do whatever strikes him as pleasurable or profitable to himself, as long as any consequences seem either tolerable or displaceable onto others' backs.<br /><br />The sociopath who actively seeks power over others -- i.e., the political sociopath -- is incapable of seeing others as individuals. His thinking is in terms of "the masses." Given that a mass of anything has less identity than an individual specimen thereof -- yes, even to a sociopath -- the political sociopath approaches a state of solipsism in which there are no other independent actors in the universe. He thinks less of dealing with unpleasant consequences than the private sociopath: given that he alone has the capacity for self-willed action, he finds it hard to believe in them.<br /><br />When a political sociopath is confronted by independent action from others, it upsets his worldview. <i>That's not supposed to happen!</i> Depending on the extent to which it crosscuts his agenda and the degree of his self-absorption, it might anger him greatly. Outbursts of such anger have the potential to be extremely destructive.<br /><br />Among the great tasks of our day is learning how to identify the politically aspiring sociopath and neutralize him early in his career. As the sociopath must cultivate skill at deception to survive at all, this will be exceedingly difficult. Yet as the Obama Administration has demonstrated, the survival of the United States could well depend on it.Francis W.

This proves the founders's insight in the human mind to have been deep and their values stil to be true today. Realistically: How to restore the system?
