When Steve King says 'Western Civilization' he's not referring to the Enlightenment, of that you can be sure.Brian Peacock wrote: ↑Thu Oct 18, 2018 12:52 amI'm pro Western Civilisation - founded as it is on Enlightenment thinking - but is that actually code for a 'white ethno-state'?
'A Rant on Western Civilization by Rep. Steve King'
According to King, the Greeks somehow adopted the Ten Commandments, which allowed their philosophers to 'develop' the 'Age of Reason.' The punch line to King's ridiculous mangling of history:"I wanted to come to the floor to talk about this country that we have, this civilization that we have, the foundations of our civilization, and what's required to retain them and enhance them and move this country beyond the shining City on the Hill ...
"A shining city on the hill, standing true and strong on a granite ridge, was built on a solid foundation. And I argue that the foundation of it are the pillars of American exceptionalism, and those pillars are listed in the Bill of Rights, and you add to that free enterprise capitalism, Judeo-Christian values, the foundation of our culture which welcomes all religions, and on top of that the dream that inspired legal immigrants to come to America. And that dream embodied within the vision of the image of the Statue of Liberty.
...
"And as the Greeks, masterful people as they were, they were shaping the age of reason. We had Mosaic Law that informed the Greek Age of Reason. And the Age of Reason, where I imagine Socrates and Plato and Aristotle and other philosophers sat around and challenged each other intellectually like gun-slingers did in the West with guns they did it with their brains. And young philosophers would go up to Socrates and challenge him with their philosophy and Socrates would take it apart because he was the top guy.
...
"But my point in this is that as Mosaic law came down from the mount, was handed to civilization, it emerged through the Greek civilization as the Greeks were developing their Age of Reason, and we're talking about the foundation of Western civilization, and almost concurrently with that Roman law was emerging, as well."
"Congressman Steve King: whites aided civilization more than other 'sub-groups'""Our Southern border is porous."
...
"We need to build a fence, a wall, and then another fence."
'What Rep. Steve King Gets Wrong About The Dark Ages -- And Western Civilization'Fellow panelist Charlie Pierce, a writer for Esquire, had declared that demographic realities imply that the 2016 election “is the last time that old white people will command the Republican party’s attention, its platform, and its public face”.
“I’d ask you to go back through history and figure out where these contributions that have been made by these categories of people that you’re talking about,” King said. “Where did any other sub-group of people contribute more to civilization?”
“Than white people?” asked host Chris Hayes.
“Than western civilization itself,” King responded, “which is rooted in western Europe, Eastern Europe and the United States of America, and every place where the footprint of Christianity settled the world. That’s all of western civilization.”
"Steve King: Western Civilization Can't Survive on 'Someone Else's Babies'"If Iowa Representative Steve King thinks that bringing up the “Dark Ages” is a clarification for his misguided comments about the contributions of “subgroups” to civilization, he definitely needs to bone up on his history.
On Thursday, Representative Steve King (R-Iowa) was ridiculed for suggesting on MSNBC that "white people" had made more of a contribution to civilization than any "subgroup." He later clarified these comments by saying that it was Western Civilization that had contributed the most to civilization as a whole. A week after his initial comments, King doubled down during an appearance on The Mike Gallagher Show by encouraging the defense of Western Civilization and "white people" in order that we not return to the "Dark Ages:" "I mean, they did that in the beginning of the Dark Ages and we spent centuries of not being able to reason. I don’t want that to happen again.”
Iowa Congressman Steve King is under fire this week from conservatives and liberals alike over his Sunday comments on Twitter stating Western civilization cannot be restored "with someone else's babies."
In praise of Dutch parliament member Geert Wilders, who is one of the leading advocates for halting Muslim immigration to Europe and a serious contender in Wednesday's general elections in the Netherlands, King said that he "understands that culture and demographics are our destiny."
"We can't restore our civilization with somebody else's babies," King said.

Democrats are loudly in support of their side. Of the other 90% of people, many of them are quiet about the insults bandied about. They only 'speak' at the elections.

I said 'Dems are loudly in support of their side'. Was that deadly to you?
I'll say this - condemning all republicans as 'deplorable' was a brilliant move, if the goal was to get Trump elected.

No, it wasn't.
That's not what happened. I believe in letting people be what they are. Republicans aren't people who were ever going to vote for Clinton. Stop blaming Democrats for Republicans. They are people with their own views.
This isn't just my opinion. Studies don't support your idea of Democrat campaigning making Republicans vote the way they did.
Finally, again, Clinton won the vote by a landslide.

Trump/Pence and the Republican party. Great achievements!
'South Carolina Is Asking the Feds to Allow Adoption Agencies to Refuse Jewish Parents – Trump Is Considering It'
'South Carolina Is Asking the Feds to Allow Adoption Agencies to Refuse Jewish Parents – Trump Is Considering It'
South Carolina is lobbying on behalf of a Christian foster care agency to allow them to deny Jewish parents on the basis of faith.
The Intercept reported that the Trump administration is currently considering whether the Miracle Hill Ministries social services agency can continue receiving federal funds while “recruiting Christian foster families.”
South Carolina and Miracle Hill have argued that the Religious Freedom Restoration Act — a law typically used in cases of Christian business owners who wish to deny services to LGBTQ people — “should not force a Protestant group to work with Jewish people if it violates a tenet of their faith,” the report noted.
The case revolves around Beth Lesser, a Jewish woman who was turned away by Miracle Hill after attending a three-day foster parent training. On the third day, two officials running the training (including one Miracle Hill representative) told the parents they would not be able to mentor or foster children if they weren’t Protestants.
Lesser, a supporter of Donald Trump’s, said that if the president knew about what Miracle Hill was doing, he would be against it. She and her husband, the Intercept noted, have been licensed foster parents for years and have fostered and mentored other children.
“I think that if Trump knew about this in detail, he wouldn’t be for it,” Lesser said. “Because he’s not a religious nut.”
The report noted that Miracle Hill’s provisional state licensure expired on July 25 and the Department of Social Services cannot issue the organization a permanent one unless it either proves it’s not discriminatory or a federal order is signed making an exception.
“Such an order is already drafted,” the report continued. “It’s awaiting final signature on the desk of Secretary Alex Azar at the Department of Health and Human Services. If granted, Miracle Hill will be allowed to continue denying qualified families from adopting kids based on religious views.”
