Let’s not beat about the bush. Here they are.
-
Men and women are essentially and biologically different, and no socialization or appeal thereto can change this.
-
Humans are not gods, but every human being will, without exception, find and worship one.
-
The essence and native tendency of life—social and individual—is perpetual struggle, not peace.
-
Nature is not by nature nurturing and friendly, but unforgiving and ruthless.
-
No society survives without a masculine dimension of fortification and struggle; reality does not permit it.
-
No child thrives without a masculine tutelage in fortification and struggle; reality does not permit it.
-
A healthy child and a healthy society balance masculine and feminine appropriately; they do not eliminate one or the other.
-
Without a shared god grounded in humanity’s mythic needs, a random assortment of capricious, narcissistic gods will govern.
-
All attempts to eliminate suffering instead create it at greater scale.
-
Justice cannot be had; we have a word for the attempt to create it despite this truth: “terror.”
Sue me.
