Western "Culture" |
Quite naturally the French have been at the vanguard of this crap that
has succeeded in largely destroying the Western culture that took
centruries to create. When decadent western European bourgeouis are
eventually and inevitably replaced by Islamic savages, they will have
the French to thank for undermining their own civilization and for
exporting their cultural disease to the rest of the Western world...
Decadence the bane of Western existence
By MICHAEL COREN
It's very comforting for us to dismiss as extreme, unreasonable and
even insane all of the demands and complaints of Islamic
fundamentalism. It reassures us of our own righteousness.
It is a self-evident truth, of course, that suicide bombings and the
murder of innocent people are repugnant. Here there is no argument.
Similarly with some, if not all, of the geopolitical aims of Muslim
terrorists.
But what of their insistence that Western society is decadent? Can we
really ignore this criticism?
Just last week my 7-year-old daughter was looking for dinosaur photos
on the Internet. Luckily we are always close when she is allowed on the
computer. Because there on the page, totally out of context and
designed to snare innocents, was a horribly pornographic website.
Which should come as no surprise. As glorious as the Internet is, it is
used by millions of people today as a source of masturbatory images.
Put simply, the West has managed to turn so much that is golden into
base metal.
Sex itself should be the supreme and supremely pleasurable act of
physical love between two married people. Instead it has become a
commercial enterprise as the mindless worship at the cult of the
orgasm.
Yet the West is not decadent.
Children should be living icons of marital fertility. Not now. Abortion
rates rise steadily and ever-new methods of destroying unborn life are
found by weird and amoral science. Pills, rubber, patches and devices
are employed to prevent what should be exquisite -- birth and babies.
Individual responsibility is rejected and the notion of celibacy until
marriage scorned as an archaic fantasy.
Yet the West is not decadent.
When marriage does occur, it is thought in many circles almost
eccentric for a couple to remain faithful. Our most successful
television shows present adultery and promiscuity as being
sophisticated and fashionable. Pity the wretch who knows only one
partner for life.
Divorce is inevitable, single-parent families are as complete as any
other, drooling lust is only natural. These are just part of the litany
of post-modern lies that tear away at the moral fabric of our society.
Yet the West is not decadent.
Men marry men, women marry women, teenagers become pregnant, the age of
consent is lowered and if anybody protests they're told no one cares
and that such concerns are a digression from the real issues.
But what are those real issues? The gap between rich and poor is
greater than it has been for a century and multinational corporations
tell us what to drink, what to think and what to do. The environment is
raped, the planet abused and our dinner portions grow larger.
Except in those nations colonized by Europe and North America, and
where people of darker skin scrape out a life and, often, death. Here
we ignore and explain and justify.
Yet the West is not decadent.
Society, media and certain politicians encourage the casual use of
drugs and there are increasingly loud calls by elites and activists for
certain narcotics to be legalized or decriminalized.
These enable people to escape the incarceration of their own reality,
which is in many ways the greatest tragedy of all. A life that should
be full of love, family, children and joy becomes mundane and
materialistic to the point where hash and hallucination are preferable
to a shared moment with a loved spouse.
Video games where the goal is to kill policemen. Education where
feelings matter more than facts. Games where steroids matter more than
sportsmanship and entertainment, where fights and fornication matter
more than poetry and poignancy.
Yet the West is not decadent.
Fight the war on terror. But know that sometimes defeat is to be found
in the very core of victory. And that the West is, yes, decayed to its
soul.

LOL. Thanks for demonstrating the state of modern "educashun". It's
fascinating to see your post end at the very essence of this modern

Just last week my 7-year-old daughter was looking for dinosaur photos
on the Internet. Luckily we are always close when she is allowed on the
computer. Because there on the page, totally out of context and
designed to snare innocents, was a horribly pornographic website.
What the ***** was she typing into Google? 'Abbraxasaurus'? 'Traciceratopps'?
'Jizzadon'? 'Shagosaurus explicitus'? *What*...?? Has some RC priest or nun
perhaps been trying to tell her about the 'Cunnilingasaurus' and the
'Pleasurasaur'...?
Something is definitely going on: *I've* looked for dinosaur stuff *dozens
of times*, and I've never, never, EVER ended up with ANYTHING 'horribly
pornographic'.
Hmmm... maybe you just decided to have a fit of the vapours over something
that an actual healthy adult (as opposed to a kook in the grip of paranoia
and religious mania...) *wouldn't consider to be 'horribly
pornographic'*....
Which should come as no surprise. As glorious as the Internet is, it is
used by millions of people today as a source of masturbatory images.
Put simply, the West has managed to turn so much that is golden into
base metal.
The horror! People are wanking! It's the *end of the world*....!!
Sex itself should be the supreme and supremely pleasurable act of
physical love between two married people.
Well, I do hear that sometimes it even takes place among animals, insects
and plants. Obviously, only when the plants *really, really love each
other*, naturally...
Pills, rubber, patches and devices
are employed to prevent what should be exquisite -- birth and babies.
Yuh. Birth and babies. Exquisite. Right.
So says a guy who would use a very different vocabulary if he was ever
called upon to spend 6 hours squeezing a basketball out of his arse, and
then watched it puke for 2 years...

Decadence the bane of Western existence
By MICHAEL COREN
It's very comforting for us to dismiss as extreme, unreasonable and
even insane all of the demands and complaints of Islamic
fundamentalism. It reassures us of our own righteousness.
It is a self-evident truth, of course, that suicide bombings and the
murder of innocent people are repugnant. Here there is no argument.
Similarly with some, if not all, of the geopolitical aims of Muslim
terrorists.
But what of their insistence that Western society is decadent? Can we
really ignore this criticism?
Just last week my 7-year-old daughter was looking for dinosaur photos
on the Internet. Luckily we are always close when she is allowed on
the computer. Because there on the page, totally out of context and
designed to snare innocents, was a horribly pornographic website.
Which should come as no surprise. As glorious as the Internet is, it
is used by millions of people today as a source of masturbatory
images. Put simply, the West has managed to turn so much that is
golden into base metal.
Sex itself should be the supreme and supremely pleasurable act of
physical love between two married people. Instead it has become a
commercial enterprise as the mindless worship at the cult of the
orgasm.
Yet the West is not decadent.
Children should be living icons of marital fertility. Not now.
Abortion rates rise steadily
Abortion rates in the U.S. are much higher than in Europe. Don't blame
the rest of the West for America's inability to teach contraception.
and ever-new methods of destroying unborn life are
found by weird and amoral science.
Weird Science? Lousy movie and lousy song.
Pills, rubber, patches and devices
are employed to prevent what should be exquisite -- birth and babies.
Ah, contraception is evil. How about non-intercourse sex? How about
you tell us how wrong that is as well.
Individual responsibility is rejected and the notion of celibacy until
marriage scorned as an archaic fantasy.
How is the use of contraception a rejection of responsibility?
Yet the West is not decadent.

Divorce is inevitable,
It is more "inevitable" in the more religious areas of the U.S. than

single-parent families are as complete as any
other, drooling lust is only natural. These are just part of the
litany of post-modern lies that tear away at the moral fabric of our

Men marry men, women marry women, teenagers become pregnant,
Well, if you deny them contraception what do you expect? Teenagers
have been having sex for about as long as there have been teenagers.
the age of

But what are those real issues? The gap between rich and poor is

Huh?

Society, media and certain politicians encourage the casual use of
drugs and there are increasingly loud calls by elites and activists

dollars to put more people in prison (the U.S. already has the highest
% of its population in prison of any in the West) instead of
legalization and treatment it will finally work. What is truly

No, dimwit, babies are not dying out. There are plenty of babies born.
In advanced societies, we are capable of acquiring adequate pre-natal
and post-natal care, which more or less guarantees that births will go
to term and the vast, vast majority of babies will be born healthy and
functioning. As a result, American women don't have to have four
children to see one of them actually make it to adolescence. We also
have the resources to save for our old age and to work in jobs that pay
pensions that can be supplemented with social security. All of this
means we can have two or three children, see them grow and not have to
rely on them for support when we're old and sick. In poor countries,
they have lots of babies because they're stuck with the idea that some
will die and the need them for support as they grow old.

Oh, and sex was never a commodity before? Do you have any idea of the

between consenting adults, why is it any of your business what anyone

We don't delay marriage. Delay was much more common prior to to the

capable men, and teenage girls. Men would hold off marriage until they
were capable of supporting a wife. When they did finally hunt for a
woman, they wanted a young one who could bear five or six children

below replacement level population growth.

Where did I mention babies "dying out"? If you weren't designed to be

I am more interested in the values of prostitution forced onto every
member of society by the mass media, thanks to the principle that sex
sells. I doubt that in Victorain times 1 in 3 15 year old girls was
engaging in oral sex as is the case in that paragon of modern
liberalism, Canada:
http://www.cbc.ca/passionateeye/secrets/study.html
The estimates I've seen are staggering. As for sex
between consenting adults, why is it any of your business what anyone
does?
The next step, naturally, is allowing consenting adults to eat each
other as in Eurodecadent Germany. Then we will have come full circle
to pre-Christian times.
From what I can see, modern society is more moral in its attitude towards
sex, and its respect for women, than older societies were.
It reduces it to a marketplace, like everything else.

We don't delay marriage. Delay was much more common prior to to the

http://www.unmarried.org/statistics.html
The age was rather stable until 1960, then it went up even though
average income did as well.
Men would hold off marriage until they were capable of supporting a wife.
Shakespeare was about 14 when he got married.
When they did finally hunt for a woman, they wanted a young one who could

***** you, yankee moron! Go pray for me with your fellow overweight,
gun-worshipper, bigotted, homophobic, racist, intolerant countrymen and
leave me alone!!!!!!!
Granted "The Black Monk" would easily fit the "American"
characteristics you describe, but you seem to have quite a bit of
bigotry, xenophobia and intolerance gpoing on yourself. Believe it or
not, 50 percent of Americans don't support wars of aggression, or hate
homosexuals, or want to see Jesus run for president. Some of us are
actually quite cute, too (Zooey Deschanel, anyone?). Next time, you
might want to limit your criticism of right-wing propaganda to the
ignorant scumbags who spew it out, rather than a blanket condemnation
of all Americans.

I know... that was the point of my posting: to someone who makes
generalization, you have to use generalization, otherwise, what you
want to say won't be understood. These people don't understand
nuances...
I know enough Americans to know that you're absolutely right...
But when I read someone who says "the French" or "the Germans", I have
to answer by saying "the Americans..."
And unfortunately, many Americans (I didn't say all...) seem to think
that their country is god's gift to the planet... something you don't
encounter very often with other western countries...

Other than seeing a Eurotrash trying to act tough. The funniest was
the performance of your cowards in Srbrenica. No match for some Slav
guerrillas. If not the for Croats being in the way, I suspect the
Serbs would have taken Berlin within a couple of months.

The problem is that you are doing what you have no right to do -
destroy that which was built by your predesesors and due to your
personal irresponsibility and selfishness, handing it over to
barbarians. Just as Byzantium had to, eventually, capture and hold
onto as much of the former Western territory as it could, someone will
have to become steward over your fallen lands. Russia, if it recovers?

No, actually, I've seen some good plays there. And there's the Anne
Frank museum. And they've got a good football team. Or is all of that
decadence too?
You're blind to anything you don't want to see. It makes you a bad
witness for anything.

I think it's very telling that you lump the Anne Frank museum and the
football team, together with "good" plays.

I think it's very telling that you did not respond in any way to the
evidence that your statement about Amsterdam was obviously FALSE.
Obviously, when caught in a falsehood, you just leap on to something
else - in this case pointless insinuation, bordering on an ad hominum
attack, about why I chose the examples I did.
The reason I chose the examples I did was to indicate that there is a
wide VARIETY of things that Amsterdam is good for besides "drug, sex
consumption." A wide variety; hence the individual examples are not
intended to be similar to each other, except that (a) they're not
decadent, and (b) they're in Amsterdam.
If you think it's "very telling" in some other way than that, you're
simply projecting your desired meaning onto my words.
And you're still avoiding the clear fact that your original statement
was wrong
