After posting my article Islamic Republic of Great Britain under President Charles Windsor?, I've received comments here and especially on my Facebook Save the West page that show two related phenomena:
1) most people still do not understand that Christianity is the only way the West can remain itself, civilized, Islam-free and ethical
2) the reason the Western general public opinion has not been capable of recognizing or adequately countering the Islamic threat is that it has been so accustomed to the Left's propaganda, an important part of which is its anti-clericalism, anti-Christianity and assault on Christian moral values, that it has lost the ability to see even the biggest elephant in the room; in other words, erosion of and attacks on Christianity have become so normal and commonplace that they are not even noticed and recognized as such, which has led to the spread of the misconception that a religion equals another, and this in turn has made it more difficult to recognize Islam for what it is, even in the face of the most obvious and widespread direct experience through our eyes and ears.
After all, if so many people (including me until not long ago) can believe that Oscar Wilde was an innocent victim of homophobia whereas in fact he was a dirty homosexual paedophile of the worst sort, a wealthy man abusing and exploiting young working class rent-boys for sex, and that, far from being a victim of Victorian prejudice, even today he would be found guilty and be rotting in a prison cell, the high incidence of this belief in itself shows how big the collective disconnect with reality has become in the Western mind.
People have been subjected to such a brainwashing of Orwellian proportions and diabolicalness that of course, when Islam was ready and coming here to invade and submit, it found the gates of the West wide open. Nobody, or very few, were capable of seeing the obvious any more.
Now, going back to the comments to my post. I do not blame anybody, as I said it is extremely easy to be deceived by 40-50 years of uninterrupted, continuous, profound leftist indoctrination.
The comments are mainly of two types: a) they minimize the impact that even a Muslim or Islam-sympathizer Prince Charles could have, either because his reign will be short-lived or he will not have any say in how the country is run or because at least he is honest, and b) they defend the atheists' presumed entitlement to "get a say in who is to sit on the throne".
The very fact that Britain could have an Islamophile monarch is per se a sign of the enormous influence that this pseudo-religion has already attained, let alone if that dreadful scenario becomes reality.
This case also makes it even more evident than it has already been how Islam is incompatible with and a direct threat to Christianity, when you have a monarch who is supposed to have the official titles of both the "Supreme Governor" of the Church of England and the "Defensor Fidei", defensor of "the" faith - as there is only one faith that can be recognized as the foundation of any Western society, and that is Christianity - who has Islamic propensions and does not really want to defend the special role of the Christian faith.
The question about "atheist rights", which we hear more and more of, increasingly reminds me of the often-trumpeted "Muslim rights".
In advanced, Western democracies, both individuals and minorities should be protected, hence the classical theory of human rights, not to be confused with the current, leftist theory of human rights, which is something completely different, indeed opposite, and only underpins the spread and power of the state and of the welfare system, bringing Western countries to economic ruin.
The classical theory of human rights derives from the Christian doctrine of natural rights. And incidentally, this is only one of the many things that Christianity has "done for us". The problem is the widespread lack of historical knowledge of how almost everything that distinguishes the West, with its incredible civilization, from the rest is indissolubly and inherently linked to Christianity.
In the West I also include Christian populations the world over.
But the decision in a democracy is clearly taken by the majority, and most people in Britain want a Christian monarch with a Christian role: "73% said she should continue as supreme governor of the Church of England and keep the Defender of the Faith title ".
The problem is that, if we lose or dilute our Christian roots, we become nothing, the West cannot even be defined without them.
Europe geographically is just an appendix of the Eurasian continent. What distinguishes Europe is its culture, and its culture has two roots: the classical world of ancient Rome and Greece and the Judaeo-Christian tradition. Without them Europe, and by extension the West, would have just remained as civilized as the Third World is now.
The West would not have existed without Christianity and will not survive without it.
One of the reasons why Islam has made so many inroads into Western society so easily is because the people in the West do not believe in anything any more, and therefore think that there is nothing to defend, nothing worth protecting.
People who attack Christian values, which are what the West is built on and without which the West does not exist (think of the current difficulties in trying to define “Britishness” in the UK and “Europe” in the EU, difficulties that derive from the attempt to exclude Christianity from these definitions), open the door to Islamization, whether they realize it or not.
As for atheists, it is possible to be atheist and Christian, as Oriana Fallaci declared herself to be and I was until I realized that atheism is impossible to support rationally and scientifically (the alternative to the existence of God, that everything happened by chance, having such a low probability as to be mathematically impossible); so now I am agnostic and Christian. You can believe in Christian ethics and values and recognize that we owe all our civilization, including science, to Christianity, while having doubts about or without believing in God.
Is our side arguing that this is an attackon the first amendment and religious freedom?
It is just that an attack becaus if hoosexual marriage is forced on to us then the churches, adoption agencies, wedding planners, Priests, Revs, cake makers even who refuse to do their sham will be sued
It will be the end of religious freedom and not a damn thing is being done , instead we hear elitist establishment and infiltrators like liberal tarians telling us to reach out to a communist agenda for marriage, .
We are being told to move on and stop living in the past\Our house has bene closed and the obama’s now act as a royal family banning the public into our house
When will the people stand up and say enough, when will people on here make calls, send mail, inform their neighbors, friends, family etc, when will conservatvies not all get some balls and fight back instead of being silent on homosexuality?
I’m sick of it.
We live in two countries.
One is illegals, drugs and homosexual marriage legal, gut the defence
the other is marriage, family, rule of law and common sense
religious freedom can be gone in a few days and all we hear is the leader of the RNC spout how we move forward.
did the commies ever say drop this issue over the years, hell no
did they ever say no to illegals , hell no
They kept at health care, illegals and homosexual turd poking sick mental disease marriage
Then lets fight fire with fire! Whom amongst us will be willing to take the bullet? Go to the supreme court with two partners whom you love and wish to marry. Whom will go with their dog? If the gay equality crowd believe that you should be able to marry whomever it is you love then this will point out the rediculousness of their argument!
I can't decide which is worse, supporting muslimism or homosexualism. Hmmm.
If I may interject a slight quandary - what are the muslims going to do with all the homosexuals if they accomplish their worldwide caliphate takeover?
Maybe they would be so hellbent on the homos they would forget about the 2.5 billion Christians.
