Authoritarianism

The general conception and usage of the term Ideologue, means one who is fixed, narrow minded, uncompromising, limited in intellectual scope, perhaps intolerant, tending to singular intellectual perspectives and issues. For instance the individual who will not have children on principle, because the state of human affairs is considered incompatible with bringing children into the world, or the anti-abortionist who is against abortion under any circumstances. The propensity to Ideology, can also be associated with persons who have limited experience and knowledge, as individualized circumstance, and thus must rely on limited understanding, general principles and formulas, that are suppose to cover all situations. Ideologues may be quite intelligent up to a point, as knowing every detail of the workings of the boat they ride, but know absolutely nothing about the ocean they float on.

Ideology is an inherent aspect of the Progressive Materialist perspective. Human created states and conditions as progressive, may be foreign to the natural world of the Given Existence. The progressive Ideology imposes new states and conditions upon what is replaced. This entails an attitude of superior authority. This authority is greater than and authorizes the transformation and destruction, of the pre-existent states and conditions they replace. Thus the progressive tends to embrace authority, that enforces their developmental ideals. God is a progressive ideal, as authority greater than the natural physical world.
