“In reality, as their theological roots demonstrate, human rights are only law contaminated by morality.”
Alain de Benoist
The laws of thought are natural laws with which we have no power to interfere, and which are of course not to be in any way confused with the artificial laws of a country, which are invented by men and can be altered by them. Every science is occupied in detecting and describing the natural laws which are inflexibly observed by the objects treated in the Science.

Neither in war nor yet at law ought any man to use every way of escaping death.

The difficulty, my friends, is not in avoiding death, but in avoiding unrighteousness; for that runs faster than death.
Socrates
