Die! Relativism, Live! Humanism



The internet is a beautiful thing because now, the real education can begin. I see people are starting to naturally question the realities of when it IS okay to judge someone for failures that are to the detriment of all men, on a big or small scale. Too long have we pandered to the relativist hippy mentality of “can’t we all just get along.” This mentality has been held against good people’s morals as soft, and not resolute, and the pricks from history who ARE resolute, with the wrong resolutions have been allowed to carry the power forward.

This has got to stop and I feel people are starting to understand, that that which is right and correct has the right to judge that which is wrong. A past failure to understand, does not mean understanding cannot be had in the future. It is this idea that has spelled the doom of good morals in the past. We have got to use Machiavellian ideas in a different sense, that in order to protect goodness we have to do more than just lead by example. We have to meet unsavory tactics, with unsavory defense to preserve the good absolute at the core of all this. You do not become like the person who stimulates bad behavior because you have to defend yourself from that bad behavior with unsavory means. They set the bar, by which you are forced to defend yourself, but as you are the higher order, you only do what is absolutely necessary for that defense, without compromising yourself down a slippery slope to oblivion. Humanism is a hard object. Physics and humanity are hard objects. We should not put forward relativism as an end, when in fact what it is is a means to an end. That end is peace. Instead of promoting tolerance, we have to promote education for the understanding of correct living, which is absolutely not relative.
