"Conservatism" means you do NOT change what has proven to work.

I agree. On certain levels.Barfly wrote:Human nature does not change with the times.
That is an indirect parallel and cannot be proven.callmeslick wrote:What can be proven is that economic realities, technology, knowledge

Economic realities, technology, knowledge and morality exist within the moment, and are driven by the very fact that that human nature is more of a constant than an inconstant.

Really, human nature is no different now, than at other times in history.
There ain't nuthin new to discover about it. Though, somethings?
Need to be re-discovered..in a hurry....

Re: Liberalism unchecked
Here's why I said it is arguable that human nature is unchanged through time: Definitions of what 'human nature' consist of vary widely. Sure, certain traits are pretty much constant, within some variation and clearcut gender differences. But, a lot of what gets called 'human nature' can be clearly shown to relate to the culture in which one is brought up.
