Which is why conservatives are doomed to fail

June 9, 2012 By Kathy Shaidle

Conservatives/traditionalists still believe that “man is depraved” — that we are born bad and will default to evil unless reigned in by fear of God, a well-developed sense of duty, honor and responsibility, and a horror of being publicly shamed/losing everything.

Liberals/progressives believe that man is born good/is at the very least a clean slate, and is made “bad” by his “environment. Participation trophies for all. Every day, the parents and friends of criminals insist that “he was a good person.” These criminals, interestingly, usually score very highly on tests of “self-esteem.”

And the liberal/progressive worldview has triumphed in North America.
