The Welfare State May Be Well-intentioned, But

Nothing More Guarantees The Erosion Of Character Than Getting Something For Nothing. In The Liberal Welfare State, One Develops An Entitlement Mentality. And The Rhetoric Of Liberalism - Labeling Each New Entitlement A 'right Reinforces This Sense Of Entitlement.' -

As You Get Older And Wiser You Realize That When People Are Given Anything Without Having To Earn It (unless They Are Physically Or Mentally Utterly Incapable Of Earning Anything), They Become Ungrateful And Lazy. They Also Become Less Happy.

If We Weren't Born With Anti-social Passions - Narcissism, Envy, Lust, Meanness, Greed, Hunger For Power, Just To Name The More Obvious - Why The Need For So Many Laws, Whether Religious Or Secular, That Govern Behavior?

Citizens Of Liberal Welfare States Become Increasingly Narcissistic. The Great Preoccupations Of Vast Numbers Of Brits, Frenchmen, Germans And Other Western Europeans Are How Much Vacation Time They Will Have An How Early They Can Retire And Be Supported By The State.

The Evidence In This Universe For Design - Or, If You Will, The Fine-tuning That Cannot Be Explained By Chance Or By 'enough Time' - Is So Compelling That The Only Way Around It Is To Suggest That Our Universe Is Only One Of An Infinite Number Of Universes.
