In A Philosophical Mood?

The convergence of radical leftist and radical Islam into a popular front is an odd occurrence. Leftists are supposedly interested in “human rights” and freeing humanity from intellectual and economic bondage. Thus the radical leftist should in theory support Feminism, LGBT rights, and radical secularism. They are often allied with Islamists who are fighting to, among other things, halt the progress of Feminism, LGBT rights and radical securalism. It is a phenomenon not easily explained.

For simplicities sake I often make the argument that Marxist love totalitarianism so much that they’ll accept it in any form. The actual relation between the two are more complex however, and I’ve never had the time, or frankly the desire, to dust of my psychology armchair and delve into the mysterious affinity for Koran flavored Fascism the left frequently exhibits. Luckily some others are willing to do just that, and their analysis is bound to ruffle feathers. It also got me thinking about philosophy and metaphysics for the first time in years.

First some basics, this American Thinker article examines the Islamic tradition and why it has developed into and “irrational” philosophy.

One cosmos posts a provocative essay on Progressive irrationality, then a great post on the Islamic/leftist axis.

Now that your in the right frame of mind, read Dr. Sanity’s Systematic Subversion And The Ultimate Triumph Of Freedom.

When your finished reading, turn off you monitor, sit back and let it all sink in.

Now just to get you really furrowing your brow, visit another of my favorite websites and bask in what it all means.

Progress is the starry wisdom.
