Each year the English language develops about a thousand new words. The King James Version of the Bible contains only about 8,000 different words; many good words have developed since. Conservative terms, expressing conservative insights, originate at a faster rate, and with much higher quality, than liberal terms. Conservative triumph over liberalism is thus inevitable.
Powerful new conservative terms have grown at a geometric rate, roughly doubling every century. For each new conservative term originating in the 1600s, there are two new terms originating in the 1700s, four new terms in the 1800s, and eight new terms in the 1900s, for a pattern of "1-2-4-8". This demonstrates that the future is increasingly conservative.

It is rapidly shortening; the Lincoln-Douglas debates 150 years ago lasted for hours, but none do today. The average length of sentences in speech is another indication of attention span, and it has been shortening significantly.
