In 1920, Winston Churchill spoke of a group of Enlightenment conspirators who had produced a system of morals and philosophy "as malevolent as Christianity was benevolent, which, if not arrested would shatter irretrievably all that Christianity has rendered possible."
He observed that this malignant worldview "has been the mainspring of every subversive movement during the 19th century. This worldwide conspiracy for the overthrow of civilization and the reconstitution of society on the basis of arrested development, of envious malevolence, and impossible equality has been steadily growing." (Zionism versus Bolshevism)
This malevolent system of warped morals and anti-human philosophy entered into the world during the Enlightenment, where it seems as if another Garden of Eden seduction occurred. It appears as though certain Enlightenment thinkers--Darwin, Marx, Hegel, Saint-Simon and Rousseau among others, ate of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, and each man received certain ideas which, when combined with the others, produced a malignancy filled system of philosophy comparable to a grimoire of goetia (black magic) which, like Sauron's One Ring, holds out for the bearer, a seductive illusion of power, wealth, and glory. The key to the power, according to the grimoire, is through the reversal of human norms, natural law, and the social institutions so necessary for the continuance of mankind. In his book, The Everlasting Man, G. K. Chesterton described the reversal process as the 'theology of demons' and said it is sadistically anti-human and anti-childhood. It is intrinsically evil.
In its' guise as Communism, it unleashed a sadistic anti-human holocaust of planetary dimensions. From Hitler's ovens to the killing fields of Lenin, Stalin, Mao Zedung, Pol Pot, Kim Il-Sung, Kim Jong-Il, and Fidel Castro there runs interconnecting rivers of human blood. One hundred million lives were consumed in the demonic quest for the creation of a New Man.
Even as rivers of blood still flowed from the earthly Hells created by Communists, communism itself began to shape-shift into something innocuous seeming in order that it could slither into and infect Christendom and the very fortress of Christianity, the United States. It disguised itself as progressivism, liberalism, secular humanism, and then later as environmentalism, feminism and a plethora of other social justice causes.
Soon, subversive stealth campaigns were launched. One was for the purpose of perverting our language and to insert the word 'social' into every conceivable area. This was in order to plant the thought that 'social' infuses everything with a positive content.
Another was for the purpose of instilling a sense of guilt within Americans. Americans found themselves being frequently reminded of both their individual failures and of the evil perpetrated by their culture and nation. A constantly expanding range of 'victims' who had been 'unfairly' treated and thus deserving of 'special' treatment were paraded before Americans to ensure that the conscience of Americans remained troubled.
Civil rights and sexual liberation movements which were social justice (communism) agendas in disguise were launched. They served two purposes: they bulldozed our Rule of Law and individual rights aside in order that these could be supplanted with 'group rights,' and they worked as dynamite upon human norms and social institutions. They were also insidiously disguised attacks upon childhood and childhood innocence.
Marching in unison with the other campaigns was one whose purpose was the perversion of transcendent natural law and more specifically, the all-important 'first principle' articulated in our Declaration of Independence: the inalienable right to life. By the use of what J. Budziszewski (What We Can't Not Know) termed 'black magic spells of imposture and unraveling' (a reversal process); shock troops of evil perverted the foundational principles of right and wrong. Because the new morals they created had an air of plausibility, Americans accepted them.
Thus they've successfully supplanted the sanctity of life principle with an ever expanding range of 'new morals' such as the 'sanctity of choice' (who wants a woman to die while giving birth?) and the 'sanctity of the environment' (who doesn't want clean air and water?)
Using the same process of reversal, they began to supplant human norms (traditional marriage for instance) and man's created condition (fixed gender as either male or female) with perverted 'new morals' based in notions of sexual orientation, consent, choice, and privacy. These new morals, like the civil rights and sexual liberation movements, are also disguised attacks upon children and childhood innocence.
The infiltration and infestation was a success. The minds of Western Europeans and Americans had become sufficiently darkened and disordered. Mankind had been successfully conditioned to accept that his new place in the scheme of life was no longer transcendent to the creation as taught by Christianity, but below and in submission to it.
Mankind would henceforth be found guilty of existing, and through his existence, be found guilty of causing hurricanes, tsunamis, earthquakes, global warming, and other natural phenomenon. The intrinsically evil worldview had finally stepped out of the shadows and revealed an appalling goggle-eyed face of neo-paganism.
The stage had been set for the next phase of their plan to redeem the world from the evil of humankind. The campaigns to debase humanity, to destroy social and human norms, and to eliminate the human plague organisms began apace.
Humans As Nonpersons and Plague Species
"Saying homo sapiens are a 'plague species,' the London Zoo opened a new exhibit featuring--eight humans. We have set up this exhibit to highlight the spread of man as a plague species and to communicate the importance of man's place in the planet's ecosystem." (Human Beings: Plague Species; WorldNet Daily, 2005) "Human beings, as a species, have no more value than slugs." (Earth First! Journal editor John Daily)
"To feed a starving child is to exacerbate the world population problem." (Yale professor Lamont Cole)
"The only hope for the world is to make sure there is not another United States." (Michael Oppenheimer, Environmental Defense Fund)
"Until such time as homo sapiens decide to rejoin nature, (we) can only hope for the right virus to come along." (David Graber, research biologist with the National Park Service)
"Nonpersons or potential persons cannot be wronged…because death does not deprive them of something they value." (John Harris, Sir David Alliance professor of bioethics, University of Manchester, England)
On the Elimination of Human Weeds and Other Schemes
"In searching for a new enemy to unite us, we came up with the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming, water shortages, famine and the like would fill the bill. All these dangers are caused by human intervention…the real enemy…is humanity itself." (The First Global Revolution, published by the Club of Rome)
Note: The Club of Rome bills itself as a global think tank. It's comprised of scientists, economists, businessmen, international high civil servants, university presidents, members of parliament, heads of state, and former heads of state from all five continents. They describe themselves as people "who believe that the future of humankind is not determined once and for all." This is code for evolutionary humanism.
"In Guyana, within 2 years, it (DDT) had almost eliminated malaria…my chief quarrel with DDT…is that it has greatly added to the population problem." (Alexander King, former president of the Club of Rome)
Note: In the 60's, a group of depopulation environmentalists conspired to have DDT banned from being used to control mosquitoes and malaria. The subsequent banning of DDT resulted in millions of deaths. One source estimated the death total as 500 million.
"I do not pretend that birth control is the only way in which population can be kept from increasing. There are others…If a Black Death could be spread throughout the world once in every generation survivors could procreate…without making the world too full…the state of affairs might be unpleasant but what of it? Really high-minded people are indifferent to suffering, especially that of others." (Bertrand Russell, The Impact of Science on Society)
Note: Although they've not managed to spread a Black Death, they have managed to ignite a worldwide conflagration of STDS and AIDS. Keep in mind that it's progressives, liberals and their international cohorts who have been preaching their gospel of 'salvation and redemption by sex' (safe sex). What they don't want you to know is that it's the environment (Gaia) that they are trying to save from the human plague. Causing human weeds to become diseased, sterile, psychologically damaged, or to die is part of their scheme to redeem the world.
Ask yourselves why there has been no logical response to this plague. Why, for instance, has there been no call to quarantine the infected? And in the face of mounting death totals (468,000 dead from AIDs since 1981), why do they continue to teach your children to engage in the very behaviors which they know to be the cause of death? The CDC (2002) reports that 16,000 deaths from AIDs occur annually. Another 40,000 new cases of infection occur within the same time frame. There are 1 million cases of HIV, 31-50 million of herpes simplex, 24 million of HPV, and 1 million cases of chronic hepatitis B.
Now connect the dots between the Aids and STDs devastations and the 486,000,000 surgically and chemically induced abortions between 1965-1996 (www.rockforlife.org). It would appear that America is on a slippery-slope to committing demographic suicide.
How Many Should We Allow To Exist?
"The total world population should be no more than 2 billion rather than the current 5.6 billion." (Cornell University professor David Pimentel, speaking before the American Assoc. for the Advancement of Science)
"The damage people cause is a function of demographics…One American burdens the earth much more than 20 Bangladeshes…In order to stabilize world population, we must eliminate 350,000 people per day." (Jacques Cousteau, the UNESCO Courier, Nov. 1991)
"Cut the population by 90%" (Dr. Sam Keen, Gorbachev Conference in San Francisco)
In speaking before the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco on Sept. 15, 2003, Michael Crichton told his audience, "certain human social structures…can't be eliminated from society. One of those…is religion. Today it is said we live in a secular society in which…the best people, the most enlightened…do not believe in any religion. But…you cannot eliminate religion from the psyche of mankind…suppress it in one form; it…re-emerges in another form. Today, one of the most powerful religions in the Western World is environmentalism."
Environmentalism (worshipping the creation) in conjunction with social Darwinism (the scientism that validates this lethal brew) and Chesterton's 'theology of the demons'--these are the elements that comprise the most intrinsically evil religion ever known to mankind. A religious worldview which Stephane Courtois (The Black Book of Communism) condemned as a criminal ideology that attracts narcissists, diabolical narcissists, and megalomaniac psychopaths such as Stalin. And unless we can arrest it, as Churchill declared, it will "shatter irretrievably all that Christianity has rendered possible."
How do I know if my supposedly real reference sample for a $20 is a real $20? Perhaps I'm comparing a fake to a fake.
I would just ask the Treasury Department if it's real and get an absolutely definitive answer. In the case of deity, I can go to a hundred different supposedly authoritative sources and get a hundred different answers. Most will tell me their $20 is the only real one, leaving me broke if I believe them since I only have a wad of $20s verified as genuine by other authorities.
It's a matter of intent. There was no government plan to wipe out the Indians.
How the Spanish tortured natives for not bringing in enough gold was not moderate.
Nor was it Christian.
Christianity has also been the originating cause of many atrocities.
No, it hasn't.
Let me rephrase that, it has also been used effectively by bad people to originate many atrocities.
Who would have used something else, probably more effectively -- which is why tyrants generally end up seeking to eliminate Christianity, whether it be Hitler or Stalin or Mao.
Communism has also been used by bad people to commit atrocities.
Who were following utilitarian communist principles.
You can do anything once you have an all-powerful, all-important figure to serve, be it God, Allah or the state.
You will do anything without God.
I actually think religiousness in the US has helped us in a way. With dual loyalties, to god and to state, it's harder for people to be completely fanatical in their support of the state.
The way it works is you owe certain loyalty to the state. You other greater loyalty to God. God always trumps state. It is our founding principle.
Didn't I just say it was a matter of planning? No planning == no intent.
Nor was it Christian.
According to the powers that be it was, the occasional outspoken monk not withstanding.
No, it hasn't.
1731, Salzburg, Austria. Archbishop Count Leopold von Firmian orders the expulsion of all Protestants at the height of a cold Winter. 20,000+ protestants had to sell their possessions and leave, and with everybody selling, they got almost nothing from the Catholics. Landowners were luckier, getting a couple extra months before having to leave. Many children were siezed to be raised as Catholics. Nobody knows how many died before they found safe haven in lands with Protestand princes. The majority weren't resettled until a year later.
which is why tyrants generally end up seeking to eliminate Christianity, whether it be Hitler or Stalin or Mao.
Religion is just as good a tool as anything else. Ask Osama.
You will do anything without God.
You can do anything with God. You can kill men, women and children and believe you'll go to heaven for it.
You other greater loyalty to God. God always trumps state. It is our founding principle.
Nothing trumps Constitution, which has done well to protect us from becoming an oppressive theocracy.
You can have intent but fail to plan.
Nor was it Christian. . . According to the powers that be it was,
The powers that be? Saying something doesn't make it so. If the Supreme Court should uphold a law prohibiting criticism of a political action, does that make the law constitutional or does that make the Supreme Court wrong?

Christianity is not the "originating cause". The "orginiating cause" would be von Firmian's desire to maintain order, power and to acquire wealth. Christianity was the inspiration to dissent, however.
Religion is just as good a tool as anything else. Ask Osama.
He'd agree with you that Christianity is a weakness.
You can do anything with God. You can kill men, women and children and believe you'll go to heaven for it.
And you will, if God tells you that. But what does God tell you to do according to the Lord Jesus?
Nothing trumps Constitution, which has done well to protect us from becoming an oppressive theocracy.
Which brings us back to the first question I asked.
Yes, you would.
In the case of deity, I can go to a hundred different supposedly authoritative sources and get a hundred different answers.
It seems to me that you don't believe in the 'Treasury Department' to begin with.
