Entry: A Response to Dan Larison Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/a_response_to_dan_larison#25353 Post contents: Mr. Wilson, Thanks for the reference to Hayes' important distinction which serves to return us to the original context of George Bush and Benedict XVI listening to the Battle Hymn of the Republic. "While one can be morally neutral about the process, one cannot be morally neutral about the newer forms of ideology and religion" Indeed not! And it's a pity Mr. Bush missed the opportunity to reiterate, "Those who are not with us are against us." Hayes' seems to support Voegelin's idea of modern gnostic politics as well as the egotism and aggressive will Santayana describes in The German Mind Sent at: 2008 10 14
