	Zoellick, Todd - Daniel Elazar, Bogus or Brilliant: A Study of Political Culture Across the American States
		Moralists encourage support of the public good, and because education is a vital aspect of society, moralists encourage education spending.
		Moralist and traditionalist states are said to be very different in the way that they spend money for education, since most traditionalist states are in the south, and southern states often spend less on education.
		Moralist political cultures are significant at the 0.05 level, indicating that as the difference between moralism and traditionalism increases in the states, voter turnout also increases.

		MORALIST: Now wait a minute, you're playing a sophistical trick on me! If the criminal had the right to break the laws (which of course he doesn't), then the police would not have the right to arrest him.
		Most moralists are constantly complaining about the world's so-called immoralities, but it is my sober contention that the moralists themselves are the primary source of this trouble.
		MORALIST: I'm glad you said "a vein of Christianity" because it is hardly the whole of Christianity.

	Kant's Distinction between the Moral Politician and the Political Moralist
		Kant uses the metaphor of the moral politician and the political moralist to explain the way in which morality is necessary in politics, and the way in which politics is an applied branch of right.
		Given that the political moralist does not follow principles, because he rejects such a strategy, he is only in politics in order to "exploit the people" through despicable tricks.
		Political moralists cover up political principles that are contrary to right, arguing that humans will be unable to attain the good which reason prescribes.

	WorldNetDaily: John McCain, Mr. Moralist
		Moralists, on the other hand, transform their sin into a virtue on the basis of which they launch moral crusades.
		The last thing we need is "strong, presidential leadership." Let's chain the president to his explicitly enumerated Constitutional responsibilities and suggest that, like Calvin Coolidge, he take a long nap every afternoon so the country will be a little safer from tyranny emanating from the White House.
		Andrew Sandlin is president of the Center for Cultural Leadership and a teaching elder at Church of the King, Santa Cruz, Calif. An occasional WND contributor, he has written numerous articles and several books.

	The Wafting Guide: Officials: Moralist (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		The Moralist*** has the responsibility of preventing the Screamies' language from degenerating into the profane or the obscene.
		He has the power to penalize an offending team member from one to fifty snivers and rap him across the knuckles with a stiff ruler.
		* Moralists** have become looser over the past few decades and are actually under pressure from the Networks to allow or even encourage language which is felt to enhance ratings.

	AsiaMedia :: The reporter as moralist
		On the one hand they react as human beings to the suffering they encounter, and, on the other, they react to the story, sometimes for purely competitive reasons searching out more suffering, or resenting the fact they have missed it.
		Yet correspondents who cover revolutions, wars, famines and disasters are, when they turn to the structural causes of the troubles they cover, instinctive moralists.
		The way they try to redress the suffering or injustice or end the violence they witness is by assigning to it causes and by calling, at least by implication, for those causes to be addressed.

	PrideSource: The Moralist's paradox
		For the paradigmatic moralist doesn't seem to be very admirableÑor indeed, very moral.
		I'm clearly a moralist in sense 1 (I teach ethics at Wayne State University).
		Yet sense 3 is the one most people have in mind with they hear the term "moralist." They see the moralist as the finger-wagging busybody who delights in exposing the shortcomings of others.

		Practice the same things: Notice that the moralist is not condemned for judging others; but for being guilty of the same things that he judges others for.
		Lenski on the moralist: “Paul’s object is far greater than merely to convict also them of unrighteousness.
		The moralist thinks he is treasuring up merit with God as he condemns the “sinners” around him; actually, he only treasures up the wrath of God.

	Amazon.com: The Moralist: Books: Rod Downey (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Ostensibly a work of fiction, the subject of 'The Moralist' is a relationship between a middle-aged man, Red, and a twelve year old boy, Jonathan.
		The story is certainly going to have a favorable audience among those who believe in the beauty and positive nature of mentor/protg relationships and hopefully with open minded individuals who also may recognize the benefits such relationships have for youth, and eventually society in general.
		Downey, with a wide-ranging mind and a large sense of humor, uses the gentle, even lyrical romance at the heart of the book as a prism through which he refracts (and often skewers) the customs, values, and assumptions of the culture at large.

	Albert Camus: Political Moralist
		In fact there is no better way of moving toward the center of his political convictions than by recognizing their theological dimension.
		As might be suspected, Camus also shows little sympathy for "realism" in politics—an immediate corollary of the sinfulness of man for so many Christian moralists.
		He has little patience with those who counsel the use of force on the grounds that the world is not yet redeemed.

		He admires Carter as an above-board moralist during an age when such a persona could have been drowned by cynicism.
		But Morris is also convincing when he suggests that Carter's moralism didn't suit the country's needs during the last half of the 1970s.
		In 1994 Atlanta Georgia, he got his (long overdue) tribute in bronze, his public ratings was again soaring, and he received invitations to join peace negotiating teams etc.

	OSCAR WILDE, moralist - The Washington Times: Non-Fiction Review - June 27, 2004 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Over a century after his death amid poverty and great notoriety in a shabby Parisian hotel in 1900, Oscar Wilde is world-famous, which would probably have delighted him, but perhaps not for long.
		He shows us the moral heart of the plays — even of "Salome," which at first glance seems worldly and sensual.
		Regarding Wilde's stories, fantasies and other short fiction, the biographer writes that faith "is not lost in the stories but found, rediscovered.

	Eamonn Fitzgerald's Rainy Day: "A moralist in the White House"
		Wolfgang Koydl's "Ein Moralist im Weiߥn Haus" makes clear that Europeans who call President Bush a "cowboy", a "Rambo" or plain "berserk" are missing the point of what's happening in Washington today.
		Koydl says they should accept instead that Bush is a "revolutionary, a visionary and a moralist." Naturally, many of the paper's anti-American readers will have spilt their morning coffee in outrage upon reading this, but Koydl sets out convincing reasons for his interpretation of the situation.
		Take just three of his stances that Europeans have greeted with hand wringing and head shaking, says Koydl.

	Moralist Scold Divorces Sweep the GOP!
		It just breaks the heart: some said that the mess surrounding Fordice's private life -- purchase of a new home in which it was revealed his then-wife would not be residing and rumors of pre-divorce involvement with another woman -- was a bit too much for the rest of the Quayle team.
		Well, ol' Kirk and Teem Quail might want to reconsider his decision in light of the newest American fad: "Moralist Scold" divorces.
		Another of the more-virtuous-than-thou crowd has filed for legal splitsville -- and it turns out to be none other than Arkansas Senator Tim Hutchinson, who today announced that he too has filed for divorce.

	Lester Bangs: Moralist
		But when people condemn "moralizing," they are making a mistake: they mean to condemn the dogmatism and inflexibility of religious truth, not the provisionality and flexibility of moral truth.
		Praise for other great American moralists runs through Mainlines, Blood Feasts and Bad Taste, the second posthumous collection of Bangs' writings, which was edited by John Morthland and published in 2003.
		But what was it that kept Lester Bangs from being a moralizer in the worst sense of the word (that is, a regulator or censor)?

	TIME.com: Mephistophelian Moralist -- Apr. 21, 1961 -- Page 1
		Other notable stories include Backwards, a knockdown farce that deflates the modern millionaire's cringing devotion to liberal cliches; Josse, a tale of venomous and elderly siblings caught in a snarling web of dependence; and The Boy Martin, in which a corrupt young whippersnapper discovers that his elders are even snappier and far more corrupt.
		Marcel Aymé, 59, is never seen out of doors without dark glasses, which rather befits a Mephistophelian moralist.
