  • So, Western Civilization...

    Is it collapsing now, or what? I'd really like to know in advance.

    With Christianity on the decline, Western Civilization is obviously doomed

      It ain't gonna be what it used to be, and that may be a good thing.

        Have it ever been what it used to be ?
        With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

          I think it used to be what it was.

            I think it'd be a good idea.

                Also, Happy Thanksgiving. I'm vaguely thankful that I'm in a country with a stable currency, myself.

                  Western civilisation already collapsed in the 20th Century. It's social democracy and the welfare state that's collapsing right now.

                        It seemed a good idea at the time.

                          Western Civ died at Verdun, what's left is a large stinking eldritch abomination of a corpse that's choking humanity with its weight. Let us hope mankind will have the strength to cast the maggot infested mass into tartarus where it belongs.

                              well that's one view. i mean people live longer, healthier lives, have good education, healthcare, a welfare state, advanced technology and more free time to enjoy it, but it also has more black people, or something, which probably makes it worse.
