Was watching the Timcast with Milo on and thought this point in particular deserved seperate discussion given not just recent but years of events.
The point Milo raised was that the ammendments in America can only work with a Christian society, the 2nd only works if you value life and the 1st only works in a society that regularly attends confession. He obviously has a bias but I want to expand that.
We can see that there's two aspects that is really damaging western society, constant attacks on Christianity and not really any other religion (Jew's get few but quickly slapped down by establishment) and a more individualistic view of the world.
For Democracy to work you need everyone to have a stake in it, everyone to share the same morality and everyone to want to improve their communities. On all fronts we've seen either a decrease or an abandonment of each of these values thanks to education policies, media and mass illegal immigration from conflicting cultures.
So the questions, can Democracy only exist in a fully Christian society, should the West no longer be a democracy and if so what system should take it's place, obviously not communism as no matter what that never works.
Probably more likely how many Caucasians rather than religion or culture.
Behavior en masse is largely genetic and so democracies forming in many different European cultures with different religions seems to indicate it was something else like inherent traits.
We'll never know more than correlation, but whether democracies in South America, Korea, Japans last will be telling, although the ones in SA could certainly be unstable because we've destabilized them...
American democracy being in the worst danger it's ever been (half of voters think elections are a sham) and also at the lowest level of Europeans is another data point.
I mean I hope that's wrong because if so it doesn't look good for America...
it probably also has to do with averages iq as well, the closer the average iq is to 100, the closer you get 50/50 on votes, the lower the average iq of a nation, the higher the rate of voting leftist policies (double whammy because you'll have higher population that needs government welfare and also not enough intelligent population to produce the tax revenues needed to support the system) and the faster the democracy fails
