This is the sort of learned helplessness approach that will be the undoing not just of the United States, but all of Western civilization. Yes, it seems inconceivable that something so evil, so little and so metaphysically and morally puny as this ISIS-inspired violence can be the undoing of the greatest civilization in history. But nihilists only feed off the weakness of others. They have nothing coherent, rational, or livable to offer. They enter our world — material and mental — only once something important has eroded in ourselves. Our challenge is to reawaken that self-confident certainty and only then will we be able to put ISIS and nihilism in the place it deserves. We all have to rediscover and assert our will to live — in the fullest and most complete sense of the term. Dr. Michael Hurd
