Summary/Abstract: The article dwells on the criticism of political philosophy of liberalism. It is intended as a continuation of the philosophical dictionary of the superstitions of Modernity compiled by Jozef Maria Bochenski. The article tries to convey the idea that liberalism has steeped in prejudices over the last two centuries. The main prejudice is in bedded in the efforts of liberals to separate the comprehension of political matters from the objectives of the moral refinement of citizens. Modern liberalism has not only lost its touch with the tradition of classical political thought but also with moral principles and beliefs that had given rise to its development.
