How To Be A Conservative
Just started reading this book, containing a series of lectures delivered by Abraham Kuyper. It's amusingly non-PC, which you might expect, considering he delivered those lectures in 1898. He has some interesting arguments about which worldviews, or as he likes to say, "life systems," contribute to a more free and fair society.
He breaks down these life-systems into 5 primary philosophies:
These five systems, Kuyper contends, each propose their own distinct schema for how we humans (should) relate to God, our fellow man, and the world/nature. Obviously, many people would take issue with dividing these systems up on seemingly religious grounds, but I think Kuyper's argument would be that you cannot establish a complete worldview without some opinion toward the metaphysical. Kuyper subsumes atheism, agnosticism, or whatever flavor of anti-theism one may prefer, under the umbrella of Modernism.
Anyway, it may not be airtight, but this way of looking at the world and its competing "life-systems" provides an interesting opportunity for thought experiments, e.g., trying to imagine some system of thought that evades Kuyper's definitions.
