and that “liberalism” in non-theistic Christianity.
Couldn’t parse that one. Did you mean “Is a non-theistic Christianity”? I’d say more of a collectivist theocracy whose political advantage is not using the word God, and thereby evading Western preferences for freedom of religion.
Technological stagnation? Only by the standards of people who thought the future meant flying cars. Moore’s law marches on in silicon, and it’s moving even faster in wetware. Ventner is busy programming new life forms from scratch. Got my 23andme SNP sequencing for $99 bucks a few years ago, and will likely get my whole genome for under $1000 in the next couple of years. Probably just in time for some serious microfluidic home blood testing (though I’ll likely have to order that from abroad, since the FDA sure as hell won’t approve.)
If I’m getting your positions right, I think I’d disagree with most of your self stylized reactionary opinions, though I’d see the point to them. From what you say I think we’re quite close on the political map—far off on the looney fringe.
