Against Bug-eyed Martians.

I like the way the man thinks.

Meanwhile, outside, Ron Paul libertarians wave their pitchforts back and forth in a certain way, and Palin peasants on the other side of the castle shake their pitchforks up and down. Some inside the beltway neocons are holding pitchforks gingerly, thumb and forefinger, with an embarrassed look on their faces, wondering how this ever happened to them. Now there actually are important concerns behind these differences, to be ...

Theocratic Law? Slavery! * Democratic Law? Freedom!

* What you grow on your land, on your own time, for your own use, can be permitted or denied at the whim of Our Masters.

What you do in private, that does not unjustly harm another human, is not the business of the Christian Magistrate. This even includes worshiping ...

On the Worthlessness of Convervativism

From The Point magazine, "Why Conservatives Should Read Marx", http://www.thepointmag.com/archive/why- ... -read-marx we get:
“I did not mean to say that the Conservatives are generally stupid,” explained Mill in a subsequent letter. “I meant to say that stupid people are generally Conservative.”

This is obviously true.

For example, consider what any dyed-in-the-wool conservative will insist on protecting in the year 2030:
* Comprehensive and limitless restrictions on a man's ...

Why be a Christian Libertarian?

Here is Gary North's Answer:
What I found is this: the concept of the rule of law was Mosaic, not Greek (Ex. 12:49). The concept of private property is supported in the Decalogue's laws against theft and covetousness. The Mosaic economic law as a whole was pro-market, pro-private ownership, pro-foreign trade, pro-money-lending (Deut. 28:12). The New Testament did not break with most of these laws, and the few that it did break with, such ...

How to Get the Right Laws on the Books

"If you can't eat their food, drink their booze, screw their women, and still vote against them, you have no business being up here."
- Jesse Unruh, on how politicians see lobbyists

And when I say 'lobbyists', I mean you and me, Mister Christian.

So, how do we deal with the step'n'fetch it boys of the Power Elite?

A few suggestions to the public is provided here:

China, Bell, and the faux-rebellion of meritocracy

We already dealt with a religion useful to Our Masters - that would be Confucianism (adore Authority!), not environmentalism (adore Nature!), evolutionary materialism (adore Power!) and Marxism (adore the People's Dictatorship!)

But... what's this? Even a religion designed to serve Authority could be used against Authority?

Like most ideologies, however, Confucianism can be a double-edged sword.

But... but... how can this be possible?

Perhaps the biggest challenge to ...

An example of a truly useful religion

Let's now turn out attention to the anti-Christian Master wannabees who are ready and able to encourage to acknowledge the State as the fount of morality, justice, ethics, and law. Take Daniel Bell, an academic courtesan working hand-in-glove with Those Masters to build up Confucianism, with it's love of autocracy, ceremony, and conformity.

"Why do what's right?" "Because you don't want to be ashamed."
"Who defines what is right?" "Father, Emperor, Society."

You can already ...

All religions are equally useful (with one exception)

Let's start with a quote from the revered historian Edward Gibbons, who proved that the evil Christians were the real cause of the collapse of the tyrannically powerful and utterly pagan (and therefore good) Roman Empire.



Here's the quote:
The various modes of worship, which prevailed in the Roman world, were ...

Christus Victor!

After quoting Daniel 2:28-30, the man of Mablog, Douglas Wilson, wrote:
Do you see the sorts of excesses that faithful presence can lead to? I mean, political opponents, and their wives and children, fed to ravenous lions? Theological critics, who were simply publishing their honest opinions about Daniel's God in respectable and refereed theological journals, getting cut into pieces and their houses made into dunghills? I mean, this is a dangerous business, this faithful presence ...
