Progress

Review Tradition vs. Traditionalism Tradition: democracy of the dead Traditionalism: tyranny of the past

Progress vs. Progressivism Progress: looking to the future Progressivism: contempt for the past Jeremiah 6:16 Thus says the LORD: “Stand by the roads, and look, and ask for the ancient paths, where the good way is; and walk in it, and find rest for your souls. But they said, ‘We will not walk in it.’”

A View of the Past Traditionalism seems to think that we have never done wrong, or that nothing could ever be better. Progressivism seems to think that we have never done right, or that nothing could ever be worse.

A World Without Boundaries Traditionalism wants to protect the past from the future by putting up boundaries. Progressivism wants to protect the future from the past by pulling down boundaries. Traditionalism wants to be safe, even at the cost of freedom. Progressivism wants to be free, even at the cost of safety.
