LEARNING TO READ THE SIGNS OF THE TIMES | 2005-02-19

There is no better way to measure the health and vitality of a family, an organization, society, or nation than by its women. Look at the teachings of Jesus Christ on this, compare medieval and Southern chivalry, and our Germanic "barbarian" ancestors who conquered Rome to the present situation.

Here is what Alexis de Tocqueville wrote in a chapter titled "How Americans Understand the Equality of the Sexes" in Democracy in America

As for myself, I do not hesitate to avow that although the women of the United States are confined within the narrow circle of domestic life, and their situation is in some respects one of extreme dependence, I have nowhere seen woman occupying a loftier position; and if I were asked, now that I am drawing to the close of this work, in which I have spoken of so many important things done by the Americans, to what the singular prosperity and growing strength of that people ought mainly to be attributed, I should reply: To the superiority of their women.

This was written in the 1830's. College professors, NOW harridans, and Respectable Conservatives would all rush in to tell us about all the bad side that de Tocqueville swept under the rug, and how much better off today's women are.

They will tell us this with a straight face, while trying to turn every one of our young girls into aggressive, tattooed, race-mixing, doped-up whores, and DEMANDING that they be "allowed" to serve in combat.

One look at their ideal woman will tell you everything you need to know about the kind of world they are working for. One that fits them just fine.

In religious parlance, it is called HELL.
