Ideologues - The Biggest Danger to a Society
#9
RE: Ideologues - The Biggest Danger to a Society
O----kay. I'm trying to figure out whether the notion that ideologues are dangerous is..like the notion that fundamentalism is dangerous...shorthand for something else, something more elaborate and specific. It's been accurately pointed out that the only time fundamentalism is dangerous..is when the fundamentals of the religion are dangerous. Wouldn't the same be true of ideologues, and ideologies?

What's dangerous to society..for example, about an ardent Green Ideologue, or Green Ideology? What would the danger to society in a person elevating sustainability to quasi-religious status be?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
