"If America is going to change, it is going to change because you decided that Christianity is going to be restored as the public culture of the United States," Yoram Hazony told attendees of the National Conservatism Conference (NatCon) on Monday.

An Orthodox Jew who resides in Jerusalem, Hazony is Chairman of the Edmund Burke Foundation and is responsible for the NatCon which has come under fire in the past for its tacit approval of homosexuality and same sex "marriage."

However, in this very well-received address, the Israeli political theorist traced the history of political paradigms in the United States declaring 2020 to be a "watershed year" where "the basic framework that guides public life" shifted from "liberalism," that reigned since World War II (WWII), to "woke neo-Marxism" which rejects the basic presumptions of individual freedom as heralded by liberalism.

While "woke neo-Marxism" is now the "dominant ideology," it is still "consolidating its power," which means "it's still possible to fight it," the philosopher said. The relevant question for the people of the West is, therefore: "What force is strong enough to be able to stop it?" (Image: Yoram Hazony / LSN Screengrab)

Defining conservatives as those who are "devoted to a life of conservation and transmission," he looked back in Western history to the period prior to the two world wars and asked what the paradigm was "before liberalism became the official public religion."

"It used to be that the public religion of America was Christianity," he answered. "It used to be that the Bible provided the framework for life in America. And people knew that. Everybody knew that."

To support his claim, Hazony cited speeches by Presidents Franklin D. Roosevelt and Dwight D. Eisenhower which clearly revealed they believed Christianity to be "the framework for life in America," holding that the foundation of democracy itself and national independence originated in the Bible...
