Talk:Temporal Order

From Wikinfo

Notes

This is from Lawerence Auster at his site VFR about Muslims enforcing dhimmi upon Iraqi Christians and America is ennabling the persecutions of Iraqi Christians:

LA replies:

Expecting the Muslims NOT to do that is like expecting birds not to sing in the springtime. The only thing that could stop them from doing that would be if they came under a superior power that excludes Islamic law from the public sphere, such as existed under Saddam Hussein, or under Ataturk. For an outside power to do this would require imposing absolute rule on the country which we will never have the will to do. Therefore we do not have the ability to reform Muslim societies. (From: [1])

Here LA hits upon a vital facet of the Temporal order. Birds do act within their nature and do bird things. Can't expect things to go outside of the Temporal Order. His statement hits the right note and makes an example. There is an agrarian saying, "You can't change a leopard's spots". That is what he is getting at. Things are standard.WHEELER 17:05, 25 April 2007 (EDT)
