Individualism or Collectivism: Which Values Life More?

September 20, 2009 Leave a comment

Individualism ascribes value, infinite value, to each and every human life; Collectivism only ascribes value to the collective whole and not to the individual constituents who make up that whole. With collectivism, the individual person is as a cell is to a biological organism. An individual is expendable just as a single cell of an organism is expendable. An organism can survive without a cell; The collective “organism” can survive without a single individual. If one person dies society still goes on. If a million people die society still goes on.

You can see why collectivism demeans and devalues individual human life. It is a monstrously evil ideology and its only antidote is individualism.
