Man’s joyless quest for joy

[Man’s joyless quest for joy @Hesychasm124]

@jonathanhatami Here is an example of how society prioritizes life: how many people endure enormous stress, suffering for what - making money. How many endure such struggle to advocate for life - very few in % terms. & we are shocked when life is treated like a throw away rag.

@jonathanhatami a culture that does not acknowledge the value of human life & why it is valuable - a real image of god. When you tinker with the natural creation process, this is what happens. Abortion & anti-family mindset. Rejecting the good dulls the conscience & darkness becomes good.

@NateSilver538 You have to pick up taxis at the lot too.

@jonathanhatami Abortion culture.

@ZavalaA @jenvanlaar What a bunch of unserious clowns. Such undignified behavior & cowardice. They fear Nick Shirley. And the citizens over years handed over their rights to these clowns.

@Zigmanfreud Nice family pic!

@JonahDispatch @JerusalemDemsas Yes the materialist culture rots your soul, brains.

@ZavalaA @ClimateDepot The same people who wants us to believe affordability is important are the same ones who mandate solar panels on new homes at a cost of $10k to $40k per new home.

@Zigmanfreud Some souls are so twisted , bored they can only get excited by obsessing over the most perverse forms of anti-social behavior like allowing criminals to terrorize the innocent.

@J_Gallagher4CA these people believe they are center of the universe & can micromanage society better than the common man who creates the wealth they envy. They can’t tolerate a world that magnifies their unimportance. Thus they must exert control to retain their illusion of grandeur.

@Zigmanfreud This dolt says “look at how much we’re paying for gas” , like she’s been living in a cave for the past 25 years. Why? Gov’t regulations. And what is one reason we change our tires more often? The gov’t doesn’t do their basic duties & maintain safe , smooth roads. Total morons.

@kimsmithholmes Even our wonderful constitution could not slow down the debt, and the citizen’s apathy, ignorance, dependency (& leader’s empty promises) that eventually will lead to their demise.

@DefiyantlyFree @TheRealBeliveau Jay, the Justice, existed b/c of separated powers. I think he understood the idea & the risks of man’s nature to civil society

[Man’s joyless quest for joy @Hesychasm124]

@JeremyTate41 @Sachinettiyil @PatrickDeneen Just what we need - more intellectuals who believe they are entitled to order society. This turns into disdain for the common man, family who are the real foundations of society.

@kimsmithholmes The antidote is revelation, reason in act & thought in culture. The biggest change in the past 2000 years is Christianity-not Machiavelli, the declaration. Both are responses to Christianity , and its view of man, state. Debating secular framework is necessary but insufficient.

@michaelbd Card Bellarmine wrote before Locke was born : “ More useful gov’t would…1st embrace one supreme head... 2nd, provide such minor heads as governors... to superintend all parts of the state there should be a distribution of power”

[Man’s joyless quest for joy @Hesychasm124]

@michaelbd Remind the right that Locke rejected universals. "General and universal belong not to the real existence of things; but are the inventions and creatures of the understanding…”. He also affirmed natural rights as god given. Contradiction.

@PaulRDeHart Folks debate liberty & common good & ignore this basic truth. Our liberty has triggered so much debt the current & next generation will have less liberty as they have to work more waking hours for gov’t. We have a wise system of gov’t, but man’s ignorance, desires are stronger.

[Man’s joyless quest for joy @Hesychasm124]

@JonahDispatch @PhilWMagness Per Dr Dehart , card. bellarmine broached locke’s ideas of limited gov’t before Locke was born. “More useful gov’t would…1st embrace one supreme head... 2nd, provide such minor heads as governors... to superintend all parts of the state there should be a distribution of power”

[Man’s joyless quest for joy @Hesychasm124]

@kimsmithholmes Locke , according to Dehart , contradicted himself. He wrote as a metaphysical nominslist : “General and Universal, belong not to the real Existence of Things; but are the Inventions and Creatures of the Understanding” & he also wrote contra God’s voluntarism.
