Preserving Western Civilization
Author: Michael H. Hart, Ed.

Preface American politicians constantly talk about various problems facing our country; however, they typically avoid discussing certain topics that are considered politically incorrect, even though those topics are of great importance. In February 2009 a conference was held near Baltimore in which three of those taboo topics were discussed open... more »ly. One of the most taboo topics is that of racial differences in intelligence. Although it is widely understood that American blacks have (on average) much lower IQs than American whites, no nationally prominent American politician ever mentions it. Furthermore, on the rare occasions when a journalist or college professor mentions that fact, he almost always claims that the difference is not caused even in part by genetic factors, but is completely due to differences in environment and upbringing. Scientific studies show that assertion to be false. It is hardly surprising that government policies based on a false premise work out poorly. So far political correctness has prevented an honest discussion of the problem. Another taboo topic concerns the nature of the Islamic threat to our country, and indeed to Western civilization. Our last president kept insisting against all the evidence that Islam is basically a religion of peace, and large numbers of Americans have been eager to believe that. Alas, Islam is most emphatically not a religion of peace, but rather an expansionist and militaristic ideology that has already subdued many other peoples. The West cannot hope to defend itself from the Islamic threat if it refuses to face the reality of the nature of Islam. The third broad topic discussed at the conference concerned the problems that are caused by large-scale immigration of Hispanics (particularly Mexicans) into the United States. Although many American citizens are aware of the problem, very few prominent politicians will discuss the matter honestly (perhaps because people who do discuss it are likely to be accused of racism ). The conference on Preserving Western Civilization was held February 6th 8th near the Baltimore-Washington International Airport. Ten well-known speakers addressed the audience, each one discussing a topic on which he or she had special knowledge and expertise, and each freely answered questions from the audience following his or her talk. Since the attendees almost universally felt that the conference was a great success, it was decided to collect and publish the talks given there. This book is the result. Michael H. Hart, editor March 2009
