Compendium Of Best Pax Posts On "Too Pure Principles" And The Collapse Of Conservatism


Alan: Since the relationship between "purity" and "safety" is clear, it seems logical that "absolute purity" guarantees absolute safety.

And for absolutists -- who, by nature, are disproportionately focused on "safety" (the root impetus behind fascism's appeal) -- it is a "given" that absolute purity is The Goal. 

Absolutists are also disproportionately concerned with "salvation assurance" so that questing after "absolute purity" seems the most certain way of counting oneself among "The Saved".

It never occurs to blinkered absolutists that "absolute purity" is, simultaneously, "absolute sterility" and that Life -- a messy, juicy, oozy affair -- cannot exist in "the biological vacuum of purity."

Life and muck are inextricably bound.

Two Prostitutes Were Direct Ancestors Of Jesus

Long before the Christian era, Chinese sage, Lao Tzu observed that "the profoundest truths are paradoxical." 

To embrace "the way, the truth and the life," it is necessary to walk on that path where the Truth is Life's messiness" and the forces of Death are most often unleashed by those who are obsessed by unattainable Purity.

A core finding of modern psychology is that frustration leads to anger and anger leads to violence.

By questing after impossible purity, one lives in a state of continual frustration and out of that frustration emerged the violence of Hitler, Mussolini and their most recent philosophical bedmate, Donald Trump the spearhead of  lily-white Nationalism, more accurately called fascism.
