Eternalism is retarded.

Sola Scriptura is retarded.

Not reading the New Testament in the original is retarded.

The Gospels were written either directly by the apostles, or (notably in Peter's case) by their loyal followers/scribes. Revelation was written by John in exile, and is not apocryphally attributed. Revelation is yet to come and does not describe 1st and 2nd century events, at least not solely.

Faulkner and Hawthorne are the greatest American writers.

Imagism isn't retarded.

Which old ways, and where?

>must return to theistic roots and find what makes our society strong and prosperous

Define prosperous or strong.

>reinstate religion as the pillar of society and the family as its backbone

I'm open to this

>acknowledge the existence of social hierarchy

You lost me.

>the female is to be obedient to her husband, the male is head of the household

See. You can go many directions with this. The one I'm going to go with, because you seem like a sociopath, is one of squandered potential. Women, happen to be human beings. I know, I may have lost you there.

But, as human beings, we tend to be dominant, because we are filled with ingenuity. It is the ingenuity, that leads us to go forward, and invent, create, devise, build. Paint, create art, write, and program, and engineer.

Making women's soul job to fuck and cook for men who probably don't know how to wash their own ass, is a serious societal hazard because of potential advancement lost, that other cultures around you might gain ahead of time.

Worshiping Rome, can only get you so far.

>The state should have the right to enforce its laws through physical force.

When I was an MLM, I might have agreed. Now? Not so much.

>Any proletarian movement will be violent because the masses are basically cognitive children. There is no limit to their cruelty, and their inability to recognize others as having different underlying motives & preferences leads to insane attempts to deny human nature and impose uniformity at any cost.

And what exactly, makes the ruling class so smart?

Let me in on you a little secret. People who are always having tactile experience, hands on thinking, at a young age and throughout life, have a constantly active mind. They have greater memory, and problem solving ability.

So, the laborer usually has an advantage, over the uninspired, and lazy in life.

>leftists tend to be mentally ill and feminists are usually autistic. Autism manifests itself differently in women than it does in men. In women it makes them more irrational, emotional, and hyper-empathic. This is why feminists are insane and ugly.
