GOOD PHILOSOPHERS MATTER [S]o, as evidence of the importance of philosophers – at least the scientific kind – the failure of the western culture in the 20th century was due to the failure of the western thinkers to solve the problem of truthfulness that would have ended the combination of democracy and pseudoscience in the present era, just as philosophers failed to defeat the combination of immigration of third worlders, ignorance of women, transportation, writing, and mysticism in the ancient world. WE MATTER. GOOD AND BAD. WE MATTER

The Old Right Was Afraid of the Truth. Thats Why They Floundered.
0) The franchise was expanded for the sole purpose of obtaining political power from the landed aristocracy, and land from the church.
1) The expansion of the franchise was a failure, because man was not oppressed by the aristocracy but domesticated.
2) Most men, and few women can or desire liberty and aristocracy.
3) The success of the western model is due to 3500 years or more of eugenic domestication by the aristocratic classes, and the advantage of truth telling, the oath, professional warriors, and distributed organization.
They lied. Or erred. Or both.

Religion Compatible With Natural Law is Not ‘False’
[W]e cannot claim a religion is false if it is compatible and not in conflict with natural law. We can claim it is literature: myth. And that the literature contains truths so far as those truths consist of statements reducible to natural law. To require literature be compatible with physical law is unnecessary in so far as it remains compatible with natural law. In this sense the Greeks, Chinese, and Japanese developed reasonable approximations. It was the Zoroastrian monotheists that conflated politics and religion and in doing so created the ills of religion. Certainly the stoics, epicureans, Aristotelians, and Roman law,and pagan nature worshippers ruled.
