This reversion to primitive authoritarianism would have shocked the authors of the Constitution.

A perfect example of this new Primitive Authoritarianism is John Ashcroft. He professes to believe that every day, in abortion mills, people are being murdered. But if you, a citizen, interfere with the killing, John Ashcroft will swoop down and make sure that you are removed, and the killing proceeds. He calls his collaboration in the killing of American babies "enforcing the law." He calls his collaboration in battening down Roe v. Wade on our society, in defiance of the Constitution, "enforcing the law."

This is a prime example of Primitive Authoritarianism. Ashcroft is a perfect specimen of the Blind Obedience theory that was supposedly rejected for all time at Nuremberg.

This country has been living off the righteous inheritance of its founders for too long. The great legacy left by the pilgrims and puritans has been wasted. The marquee ideology of a civil magistrate under submission to a Holy God, Lex Rex (king under the law), covenantal (federal) governing have been abandoned for the new humanist -“man is god, man is law”, and situational ethics axioms. Even conservatives have lost the vision; they just claim a different humanist tact from there liberal ideologues. Few will state publicly that “we either submit to God’s law or we will submit to man’s tyranny”. It used to be one served God first and then country. Now even serving God is considered un-American. Oh well, my citizenship is not of this world – as for me and my house we will serve the Lord.
