      -And as Young said, in the end we are all 'Christians', whether we like it or not. (He's Jew). What did he mean?

      I'm sure he knows that. I don't claim to. Cultural influence is perpetual. Xtianity owes much to Platonism via Augustine.

      -Every generation has the duty to build on what they inherit. To reject and disavow your legacy is to debase to nothing. CANCER.

      And I think we do. By keeping the good stuff - education - and getting rid of the bad - child labour.

      We reject things all the time. England became Christian by rejecting Paganism, Protestant by rejecting Catholicism. 1/2

      Then it became secular by reducing church power and then largely non-religious by rejecting religious ideas. 2/2

          -Also Vikings, 'upgraded' to survive. Liberalism functions in competitive (post-cold-W) vacuum, leading to decay of our culture.

          You have conservative ideas in that there are ideas you wish to conserve. So do I. They might be different ones.

          -And in healthy evolution we share bulk of ideas we inherit & (to paraphrase JFK, 1962/9/12), we build on what made us 'strong'.
