Living in a Political World

Everything is political and that is a pretty good definition of the totalitarian.Yet the clamour never ceases for more politics,more political solutions,the refrain the government should do this or that is never far from any conversation and this should be a cause of grave concern and alarm yet it is not.The personal is the political was always an ominous statement and now we begin to see its ghastly and sinister implications.

The politicisation of every thought word and deed is a poison that will corrode our liberty and we really need to examine how we have strayed so far from the concept of individual liberty and freedom and how creeping statism has now insinuated its way into every nook and cranny of  human existence and actually changed our use of language,the way we think and our culture.The abolition of the personal and the part that religion and philosphy has played in this process is something of utmost urgency to examine and there is not that much time left to do it.
