Entry: Is There Conservatism Beyond Christianity? (or how to book a mental vacation in Athens or Valhalla) Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/is_there_conservatism_beyond_christianity_or_how_to_book_a_mental_vacation#23224 Post contents: Sid: Calling Mencken a Nazi is just insane, nor did he resemble the ENR. The ENR guys are mystical, ethereal and constantly whine about how Christians and Americans are oppressing them. They do it in refried postmodern jargon too. Mencken was more of a down to earth guy. The ENR may indeed be facist, but it is the most metrosexual brand of facism ever. The more I read of them, the less they impress me. The ENR seems to have taken the typical Roman Catholic hatred for all things Protestant and universalized it. It is as if the pagan elements of the RCC were turned against Christianity. Instead of the nonsense that everything went bad with Luther, they track the meltdown back to Paul. Sent at: 2008 09 05
