Liberalism is a most important by-product of Rationalism, and its origins and ideology must be clearly shown.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Liberalism is Rationalism in politics.
My objection to Liberalism is this that it is the introduction into the practical business of life of the highest kind namely, politics of philosophical ideas instead of political principles.
Liberalism is an attitude rather than a set of dogmas - an attitude that insists upon questioning all plausible and self-evident propositions, seeking not to reject them but to find out what evidence there is to support them rather than their possible alternatives.
Discoveries made during the last hundred years have shown that liberalism is the best system to improve a country's well being.
Liberalism can only be defined negatively. It is a mere critique, not a living idea.
Liberalism is financed by the dividends from Conservatism.
Liberalism is trust of the people tempered by prudence. Conservatism is distrust of the people tempered by fear.
Liberalism is assisting quality of life, whatever you may choose.
Liberalism has never been about establishing a universal standard. Liberalism is simply intellectual cover for those wanting to gain political power and increase the size of the state.
Liberalism is a religion. Its tenets cannot be proved, its capacity for waste and destruction demonstrated. But it affords a feeling of spiritual rectitude at little or no cost.
