Britain Is Turning Its Back On Western Civilization
The Federalist ^ | September 30, 2025 | John Daniel Davidson

By praising cousin marriage, the National Health Service is repudiating Britain’s Christian past in favor of its unassimilated Muslims.

A recent news article about Britain’s National Health Service managed, in a few lines, to capture just how dire the situation is in that country and how divorced from reality its political leadership has become.

The article was about guidance the NHS published recently, “extolling the benefits of first-cousin marriage despite the increased risk of birth defects.” Defying both modern science and the traditions of western civilization, the NHS England’s Genomics Education Programme seemed to endorse incest, saying first-cousin marriage is linked to “stronger extended family support systems and economic advantages.”

It’s also linked to an increased risk of heritable genetic conditions like sickle cell disease and cystic fibrosis, but that’s apparently not as important to the NHS as justifying the practice of cousin marriage among its Pakistani Muslim immigrant population.

Indeed, the only reason the NHS is even talking about cousin marriage is because the practice is rampant among the country’s Muslim immigrants. Unwilling to push back against this for fear of being accused of racism, the British government is instead publishing documents with lines like this, from the NHS guidance: “Genetic counselling, awareness-raising initiatives and public health campaigns are all important tools to help families make informed decisions without stigmatising certain communities and cultural traditions.”

It’s hard to imagine any other issue that so completely encapsulates what’s gone wrong in Britain, or illustrates how thoroughly the country’s ruling elites have turned their back not only on their native population but on western civilization itself. After all, the prohibition on cousin marriage was one of the early achievements of Christendom that enabled the rise of western civilization in Europe.

In the sixth and seventh centuries, amid the collapse of...

(repudiating Britain’s Christian past in favor of its unassimilated Muslims.)

Brother Dave Hunt (RIP) noted in 2001 that more people attended mosques in Great Britain than Christian Churches.

And here we are, 24 years later, watching the results...

Christian-culture Brits are not reproducing. Fanatical savage muzzies are. Politicians want to stay in power, so they shit on Christian-culture Brits and kiss the a$$es of savages who rape young women.

Same thing happening in most other “Western” countries.

I don’t think I’m alone at being very sad that England will one day, maybe soon, be our enemy.

I have wondered for years why the leaders are enabling this. Your theory about the population is probably at least partly true. But what about the long term plan - do the people now in charge envision themselves controlling a mob of backwards people loyal ONLY to what their prophet supposedly said centuries ago?

And what about women - you’d think the obvious abuse of women by muslims would have them screeching more loudly than usual.

This is all so nuts it’s hard to believe it’s true - but here it is.

With all due respect to the author, first cousin marriage was not uncommon in ether Europe or the United States prior to Islamic immigration to Europe.

It’s clear the UK is unstable and should not have nuclear weapons. We need to talk about this. The muzzies taking over cannot get them.

The British leadership has done that, its people have not, as can be fully witnessed by the tremendous turnout in the recent march on London.

Is turning? I’d say it’s already a done deal.
