Preservation of Traditional Values Agreement
PRESERVATION OF TRADITIONAL VALUES AGREEMENT
Knowing that in the modern time, the tail (technology, individualism) often wags the dog (all of us living together in civilization), we collect these declarative values for the preservation of our cultures that arose before human consciousness, and by all inclinations, will preserve us where our technology and bureaucracies fail. To endorse this document is to endorse the RIGHT OF individuals to pursue these values, not these values as a SINGULAR form of government for all. They are:
1. Right to determine sexual role models and roles. We can say monogamy, polygamy and/or homosexuality are natural.
2. Right to ethnic self-determination, and if need be, ethnic segregation.
3. Right to speak the truth even if it is offensive to others.
4. Right to our own religious practices.
5. Right to regulate and govern our food, medicine and recreational drugs.
6. Right to ostracize or eject members from our community who violate this credo.
If you approve of our right as INDIVIDUALS to live by the above, please affirm this document with “yes, we support the Preservation of Traditional Values agreement” below, your organization, and the date.
More perennial philosophy attempts from moderns.
What most political systems want is derivability. You, the citizen, get given a simple principle, and using “common sense” — actually, they mean knowledge of the physical and pattern order of our cosmos — you can then derive how the other rules work.
Capitalism for example is simple. Earn money, and then anything that doesn’t affect others directly is legal.
Same with morality. Don’t hurt anyone else. Defer if conflict arises. All principles can be ascertained from a quick scan of memory and some thinking.
For more complex societies, like those with hierarchy and customs and consensual values — the situation is more complex.

This list of traditional values sounds pretty good to me, but I still struggle with the “Homosexuality issue”. I still am not convinced that it is “natural”…even though i have seen it practiced by animals.
I guess I believe that the genitalia we were born with should be the deciding factor of our sexual roles. Nature decided what we would be by “formatting” our privates the way it did.
Other than that, I have no problem with homosexual living, as long as it is not shoved into my face. Keep it to yourself and we will do fine. Make of it a showy cynical gimmick to subvert society and weaken it and we have problems.
I just haven’t been able to overcome the nausea, I feel, when two men kiss.
Otherwise this list of rights is pretty darn good.
Respectfully, DAN 1

I can agree with 2 through 5 …
#1 - you left out the right to do beasts like the State of Washington allows - WHY STOP where you did? What about other peoples needs for other pleasures? … like the guy who was in the news for doing a hole in an outdoor table.
Homosexuality is NOT natural! Sex is how man continues to exist - their actions are UNACCEPTABLE!
Also - look at history - when when the values of great civilizations got this loose - they collapsed! You want America to follow suit?
#6 - So you want to TOSS OUT the Freedom of Speech?
are you a TRAITOR to the our Constitution?
These are 2 issue’s we can NOT support
