I really enjoyed your post on race.

I think the people who complained about your entries on rape statistics (here and here) are missing the point. There are two basic groups in humanity: those who want to adapt to reality, and those who want all decisions to be subjective because they fear oversight.

Your average healthy person under normal circumstances marries someone like them, not just in race, but ethnicity, class/caste, values, intellience and health. The happiest couples I have seen are roughly matched in all of these areas.

The people who want reality to be subjective also want to harm those who have risen above the lowest common denominator of society, which we can see in the cities. This group is comprised of people who cannot readily control their urges, live for nothing larger than themselves, and wish to tear down anyone who isn’t like them. These people claim they bring progress, freedom, love, etc. but what they really bring is decay through the division of people.

It makes more sense for us to pay attention to natural divisions, and thus keep humanity together as a whole, than to break our society down into culture-less individuals who have no ideology or values system except “if it feels good, do it.” This is why race, chastity and many other things are important, and this is the fundamental split between conservatives and liberals: conservatives want to use time-honored methods of adapting to reality, and liberals view the only questions in life as social ones, and so say and do the “socially correct” things while completely ignoring their consequences in reality.

As we go on through our lifespan as a species, we need to ask ourselves what our actual goal is. Do we exist for ourselves as individuals only? If so, we become a rabble crowding into Wal-Mart for whatever’s on sale. Are we united by a sense of role, reverence, harmony, purpose and transcendental appreciation of the divinity of life? Then we truly have risen above our alleged monkey origins, and are ready (psychologically) to explore the stars.
