RAMANAM
In the Name of The Father, and of The Son and of The Holy Spirit, Amen.

This paragraph by Mark Steyn is a theological statement:

The argument they make is usually a moral one – that there’s something better and more compassionate about us all sharing the burden as a community. But the election results in Germany and elsewhere suggest that, in fact, nothing makes a citizen more selfish than lavish welfare and that once he’s enjoying the fruits thereof he couldn’t give a hoot about the broader societal interest. ‘Social democracy’ turns out to be explicitly anti-social.

In fact, this is ignored news, not fresh news. Galloway makes the point dramatically, in person. That there are no theologians to make the point from a respected, influential proscenium, and including in their enlightenment the ontological root and significance of wide adulation for a Galloway, is the fault of the theologians themselves. They lost self-confidence and started fawning to be accepted by the left or the right, mostly the left. The reason for that was they wanted to gain or keep jobs in schools or have open to them the several types of fleecing opportunities customarily called the parish ministry.

Not to worry, the first protovirus in the primordial furnace had no chance either, by any reasonable reckoning. Theologians are here, among other duties, to point out that that which is known to reasonable reckoning is always the merest fraction of what is presently occurring, which may be called the depth and power of being. Reason Itself (Logos in Christian language) is the full structure of being-itself. THAT reason is both the self and reality. In the depth of THAT reason is the power and creativity that accounts for the indomitable upsurge of vitality through the first protovirus to the fulfillment of life generally as the individual and historical fulfillment of man. Teilhard’s formula for this reality is Cosmogenesis is Christogenesis. Schroeders, Kerrys and Annans are ludicrous clowns in the Logistical view.
