Conservatism is now, and always has been about preserving traditional values; about a multi-generational continuum of a people. It varies from community to community, of course; because the cultural heritages differ. The one consistent aspect is that"globalism"--humanist pretensions and arrogance--are never consistent with conservatism. Had Nimrod's ridiculous tower at Babel actually reached heaven, it might be different.
In American terms, the fundament of our common Conservatism--that is the aspect that is general, not local--I would suggest, is captured in the Preamble to the Constitution. What really distinguished us from most foreign ideologies, is that ours was based on actual experience, not theory: America: Based On Experience & Reason
“The one consistent aspect is that”globalism”—humanist pretensions and arrogance—are never consistent with conservatism. “
How do you reconcile that statement with the Conservative Orthodoxy of today...led by the likes of Ted Cruz and Mark Levin?
Are you suggesting they are not “conservative”?
I believe they are not. One cannot be a conservative and also advocate for policies that destroy a nation.
Of course, millions disagree with me.
