Conservatism is a failed ideology (if it can even be called that) which will never accomplish anything meaningful or substantial. This is because Conservatism is nothing more than the last generation’s Progressivism. The so-called “Progressives” of yesteryear simply grew old, calcified, and became the “Conservatives” as the contemporary “Progressives” have developed whole new agendas to push. In a world where people want their problems solved today, the best Conservatives offer are the nostalgic promises of the blessedness of yesterday. These and its other failures will always prevent it from ever accomplishing anything. Here is why we are not and argue no one ever should be, a “conservative.”

The Three Greatest Threats To The Church And Society: Academia
In 1993, Apostle Boyd K. Packer delivered an address to church leaders delineating three of the greatest threats to the church and society that not only then existed, but whose influence would only increase and worsen as the years went on.
This article is about the third of those three threats and the worst one of all: the so-called scholars whose ideologies threaten society itself. In this article we review the history of the politically leftist “Progressive” take over of education, their efforts from the very start to use education as a tool to indoctrinate students into their economic, social, and political theories, and how the plan has always been to try and take control of society. We also expose the idolatry at the heart of their claims to be experts guiding society to a better future for the lie it is and provide examples of the real world failures of their lies. Finally, we look at what hope we have for overthrowing their lies and freeing ourselves and our children from the prison of leftist ideology and thereby abort the headlong run into societal collapse it is bringing to pass.
When You Should Overthrow The Government
What is the purpose of government? What separates a just government from an unjust government?
What is the difference between a good government and a bad one?
What ideas should a good government be based upon? How can you tell when a government has gone bad?
When should you be loyal to a government? How long does it command your loyalties?
When should you resist it? When should you rebel against it?
When should you tear it down entirely?
This article answers all these questions and more.
This is how we resurrect a free society.
The Ancient Chinese History of Anarchy and Liberty
There is a common error that the ideals of liberty, individualism, limited or no government, and universal inalienable human rights are an invention of Western culture and history. This is not true. In fact, the very opposite is true. The oldest texts to recognize these truths date back almost 2,500 years ago and come from China. This article explores the ancient Chinese history of liberty through the writings of one of history’s greatest and most important philosophers – Lao Tzu, the Old Master.
Insights Into The Dangers of Government from Aldous Huxley
This article is about the insights given to us about democracy, totalitarianism, decentralization, self-government, war, and power in the writings of Aldous Huxley. HIs insights into the true nature of the government, the threats in levels at the basic human rights and dignity of the individual, the origin of those threats, and what to do in order to end those dangers and reassert our essential humanity and liberties are herein. If you thought you understood Huxley after reading, “Brave New World,” that was just the tip of the iceberg compared to what else he wrote. Dive deeper with this article.
The Solutions to The Problems of the Modern World
In an age where powerful elements in society are pushing to do everything from obliterate the very concept of a woman by reducing them to such objectified terms such as “menstruating/birthing person” to trying to normalize exposing children to hypersexualized drag shows in order to desensitize them to sexual promiscuity, homosexuality, and transgenderism, this LDS Classic is one of the best addresses that you’ll ever read. Not only does it pinpoint the heart of darkness, the cause of much hate and danger in society today, but it also shows us how and why the doctrines of Christ can and should give us immense hope for tomorrow.
What Is A Christian’s Duty To The Government?
What did Jesus Christ teach about the duty that Christians owe to the governments of the nations they live in? What did the Apostles teach about what the duty of a Christian is to the governments of the nations that Christians live in? What do Christ and His Apostles teach about the relationship between Christians and the governments of the world? What did Christ and His Apostles teach about the government of God and the Christian’s loyalty to it? IN this article I use the New testament to answer all these questions and explain exactly what the Bible teaches about the relationship of the true disciple of Jesus Christ and the governments of the world.
The Place of Politics in the Church
This Lost LDS Classic looks at the role of partisan politics (loyalty to political parties) and nationalism play in the role of Latter-day Saint culture and religious practice. The political divisions in the church are both bothersome and poisonous. The Body of Christ, the Kingdom of God, should not be divided by the political ideologies of the world. The more we allow ourselves to be defined by our politics – as “liberal” Mormons, “conservative” Mormons, etc. – the more we weaken ourselves, disrupt our Christian unity, and weaken our ability to establish Zion and do the work that God has given us. Nationalism and political partisanship have no place in the Kingdom of God and the sooner we drive them from our hearts and minds the more we become Saints of the Most High God and true Brothers and Sisters in Christ.
Total War: Exposing The Vicious Nature of the State/Government
These past few weeks I’ve been playing the most anarchist game ever made, one that reveals the absolute truth of exactly how the State/government functions, why it functions that way, the true motives of those in power, and the impact this has on the societies over which it rules. Honestly, it is quite shocking just how revealing it is of the tyranny and violence at the heart of modern politics and statism. In this article, I not only explain what the game is but how it completely exposes how the state functions, how the state corrupts society, how the state is founded upon violence and theft, and why we should utterly reject it.
