You equate those values with the systemic regulation of them. Id argue that Christianity is inherently conservative. Christianity finds the root cause of the imperfection of our world (and the systems it contains) in original sin. One doesn’t endlessly seek an answer for why systems eventually fail or bad things happen, because one recognizes that ultimately everything in this world suffers imperfection. For progressivism, original sin is open-ended, thereby allowing for any particular powerful entity to control what is considered the source of evil. The Christian, by embracing the absurd belief of original sin, recognizes that ultimately even formal thought becomes informal. His belief protects him from the hubris of thinking that he has the power to fix what cannot ever be fixed. The progressive, by definition, must always be seeking a way “forward”, and in doing so tends to believe in other, more harmful absurd beliefs. |
