“ The End
of History
-Francis Fukuyamas
”

“
Humankind fears judgment, of
course. But we depend on it as
well. The possibility of dissolution
lends a moral shape to history:
we want our empires to fall as
well as rise, and we expect
decadence to be rewarded with
destruction.
Not that we want to experience
this destruction ourselves. But we
want it to be at least a possibility
— as a spur to virtue, and as a
punishment for sin.
-Ross Douthat
