Red Tape Health Care

(Page 2 of 2)

Roger Scruton's article highlights the central shift to a perspective of post-modernism. Charles Taylor also describes this phenomenon as "expressive individualism" whereby the individual goals of personal development and self-expression override of any judgment of value or taste. This is a climate that holds all forms of authority suspect because there is no recognition of universal truths. Everything is relative. It seems to me that this is untenable. We need to search for THE truth and to value what we hold to be true even while recognizing that one can never possess truth in its entirety and thus everything is conditional and subject to revision.
-- Mark Mance

THE CONSERVATIVE'S GANDHI
Re: Hal G.P. Colebatch's Westminster Implodes:

As things in Westminster continue to implode, Dr. Hal Colebatch's fine article raises questions that all governments and all countries must face and must remedy to the extent that it is possible -- human wickedness being what it is and is likely to remain. 

He writes about the British administration of India, and by extension, about Africa and the rest of the once great British Empire as well. So, from the man who did much to remove the British from India -- Mahatma Gandhi -- a pertinent quote:

"Beware of people who promise you a political system so perfect that no one will have to be good."

The Mahatma could also have substituted "financial system," "medical system," "education system," and so on.
-- Nicholas Partridge
