Unity and Human Types
Posted by JHM on
03/22/08
I would like post a few words today about the notion of the undifferentiated unity of man and the absence of human “types” in the creational order (that is, the sinless state) -a notion which the relevant texts, I feel, do not support. We know that there are orders and hierarchies in heaven (or at least differentiation of function in the Lords “court"). But heaven is not our final destination (are we agreed?), but rather the “regeneration”. Be that as it may, it is not an insupportable contention that orders, hierarchies, and mediatorial functions are not simply the skins… [Read More] |

A Brief Etymology of Tolerance
Posted by JHM on
03/22/08
Isn’t it interesting how the definition of “tolerance” has been transformed from one with an external, demonstrable proof to an internal subjective process of divination as to the presence of that ethereal substance known as “hate”? Tolerance is no longer thus: “You have not imprisoned, deported, or executed me therefore you have been tolerant.” The contemporary (and hopefully temporary) definition is this: “I sense you are not fully on board with our diversity program.” A “scientist” drawing on generous grants from The Bureau, has even devised an analytical process which uses NMRI scans to reveal changes in the brain… [Read More] |

Law, Elites, and The Mob
Posted by JHM on
03/22/08
The inner logic and will of ideological states (some have called them “proposition nations” -a ludicrous oxymoron) must inexorably move toward the marginalization and final eradication of subversive ideologies, dissident voices. In our present malaise, these dissident voices are those of the white Christian plurality, which is beginning to “kick against the pricks”. Democracy is fundamentally a system of leveling imposed from without by cryptocratic elites who have seized the machinery of culture, and the hopeful parchments of constitutionalists are resistless of the mob-will, when constitutionalism itself can be endlessly “re-imagined” to reflect nothing more than boilerplate tales of… [Read More] |

The False Unity of “The Church”
Posted by JHM on
03/22/08
In the regeneration to come, men are to be as angels -indeed even sitting in judgment of them. But what if our dread, our stern angels in the conflict above (snatched from a teeming panel of Bruegel’s) were to throw down their swords of division? Ought the demons be invited to high tea, or more relevantly, to a conference on “cultural reclamation” (whose chevrons would derive from the number of unrepentant sodomites in attendance)? Did not the Lord say He came to bring division? Division of what sort, one must ask, for the modern ecumenical church brooks no division,… [Read More] |

Materialism and The Demise Of The West
Posted by JHM on
03/17/08
If the life of the Western man is to be more than a lengthy series of empty exercises as we await death, then we must resolve to undertake a pilgrimage, as in Bunyan’s tale of travail and overcoming. It is an inward journey, followed by an outward one, but a journey of years and not of miles. For any serious work to begin, there must be a stock-taking of aims, of resources, and of cost. This is the meaning of Christ’s words when he admonishes his disciples, “For which of you, intending to build a tower, sitteth not down… [Read More] |
