Article No. 22

Conservatism prefers God-centred morals and
family-oriented values. It protects order in society. The antidote to problems
in life and the world is to come back to values and morals, God and Family etc.
Individual autonomy and financial extravagance make people unsatisfied and
unhappy in life. Life has meaning and purpose. So be meaningful and purposeful.
In the 2016 Presidential election in the United States
has a historical turning point in the history of America as well as all
countries across this planet; particularly people who preserve conservative
values. American values, popularly known as American Trinities such as Liberty,
In God We Trust, and e pluribus unum (out of many, one) are regained its
previous position in American life. Under Barak Obama, America was falling like
free fall in term of morality and values. Liberal leftism hides American values
and promoted Atheism and Chaos. Any country gives away from God-centred
Morality and Family oriented values, it will crash land in total chaos. Trump’s
motto is ‘Make America Great Again’.
There is a fight between Good and Evil, God and Satan,
Right and Wrong, Order and Chaos, Absolute Morality and Relative Morality,
Truth and Lie etc. These fight only visible in the USA, other countries failed
to Evil, Satan, chaos etc. already. If America failed in this fight, the moral
compass of the world will be demagnetized. It will lead to total chaos of world
order. Trump-Pence Conservative Right-wing ideology is now shaping America in
its trinity, values and morality. It is a ripple effect, which influenced many
nations of the world. These ideologies and its proponents are attacked as well
as witch hunt nothing like anything. But truth alone triumph always. Truth has
some delay in action, but it will come. So we need the courage to stand with
the truth, it is difficult but it is right.
Trump Effect
When Donald John Trump became the 45th and current
president of the United States, he was at 70. Before entering politics, he was
a businessman and television personality. He received a B.S. degree in
economics from the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania.
Notably in his administration, key decisions are Trump
has pursued an America First agenda, withdrawing the U.S. from the
Trans-Pacific Partnership trade negotiations, the Paris Agreement on climate
change, and the Iran nuclear deal. He recognized Jerusalem as the capital of
Israel, imposed import tariffs triggering a trade war with China, and started
negotiations with North Korea towards their denuclearization. US economy is on
a historic high, perhaps the greatest it's ever been.
He is a Christian, Conservatives and Republican. Trump
says he is "not sure" whether he ever asked God for forgiveness:
"If I do something wrong, I just try and make it right. I don't bring God
into that picture." He tries to take Holy Communion as often as possible
because it makes him "feel cleansed". While campaigning, Trump
referred to ‘The Art of the Deal’ as his second favourite book saying,
"Nothing beats the Bible”.
Trump abstains from alcohol, a reaction to his older
brother Fred Trump Jr.'s alcoholism and early death, and claims to have never
smoked cigarettes or cannabis. He is known to enjoy eating fast food. He has
said he prefers three to four hours of sleep per night. He considers exercise a
waste of energy because he believes the body is "like a battery, with a finite
amount of energy" which is depleted by exercise.
Presidency of Trump is a resurrection to conservative
values across the world. The greatest work in his Precedency so far is
recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. On this decision, he was overwhelmingly
opposed across the world from liberal left Media and Politician. But his
decision was right based on facts as well as after incidents.
Pence Rule
Mike Pence is the 48th and current vice president of
the United States. He stated about himself that he is “a Christian, a
conservative, and a Republican, in that order." Trump has said that Pence
will be his running mate, but declined to endorse Pence in 2019 should he run
for president in 2024.
Pence adheres to the Billy Graham rule, in which husbands
avoid spending time alone with women to whom they are not married. It is also
known as Mike Pence rule. It is adopted as a display of integrity, a means of
avoiding sexual temptation, to avoid any appearance of doing something
considered morally objectionable, and to avoid being accused of sexual
harassment or assault. In March 2017, The Washington Post noted that U.S. Vice
President Mike Pence never eats alone with a woman other than his wife, Karen
and that he won’t attend events featuring alcohol without her by his side.
According to a 2017 poll conducted by the Morning Consult for the New York
Times, 53% of women and 45% of men believe that it would be inappropriate to
have dinner alone with someone of the opposite sex who is not their spouse,
compared to 35% of women and 43% of men who would consider it appropriate.
Conservativism protects values and morals
Conservatism is a political and social philosophy
promoting traditional social institutions in the context of culture and
civilization. The central tenets of conservatism include tradition, organic
society, hierarchy, authority, and property rights. Social conservatism is the
belief that society is built upon a fragile network of relationships which need
to be upheld through duty, traditional values and established institutions such
in maintaining the status quo concerning social issues such as family life,
sexual relations, and patriotism. Social issues—such as civil rights, the
abolition of the death penalty, LGBT rights and abortion—which members
perceived as a threat to conservative values and societal order, while opposing
secularism and state atheism.
