The “dumbing” of America, our role in the decline of the west is not an orphan.
Take to task the academics that decried the classics.
Look with contempt at the originators that could only recycle the work of others in television and film.
Recoil at the secularists that assailed the temples in order to promote the self.
Call the role, call the role, ... Ad nauseam.
The vulgarity of the social levelers has mined us a pit lower than the Diggers of old might have found attractive and foursquare.
When the Ad hominem passes for wit and the conventional celebrates the crass and the marginal, while excluding those in contravention of them, the fault is not with the stars but with the universe that labels itself contemporary.
We are not done.
There is redemption.
Americans are at war at home with a cultural undertow that threatens to inhale all that is not dervish. This conflict would devour all that has greater meaning than the 'cult of me' along with a forced march rejection of historical development and Judeo Christian and
Western form.
Before destruction there will be denouement and the outcome is far from told.
