The Bear’s Lair: Washing their hands in bubbles

Posted by Guessedworker on Tuesday, 15 May 2007 23:11.

Some grim predictions for the American, Chinese and British economies by Martin Hutchinson, in his latest piece at Prudent Bear.
GW
.

The Federal Reserve, the Bank of England and the People’s Bank of China have this week all been faced with the same unpleasant reality: by their irresponsible monetary policies they have enabled gigantic asset bubbles that are redistributing wealth towards the criminal classes and in the long run will impoverish everybody else. Their reaction has been similar; to a large extent they have washed their hands of the problem.

The Bank of England’s response was most rational; it put up interest rates, though only by ¼%, far less than is required to right the foundering ship of Britain’s economy. The People’s Bank of China at least deplored the bubble, though it failed to recognize to what extent its irresponsible monetary policies and suppression of the yuan’s exchange rate had fueled it – but then after all, these people are nominally Communists; one cannot expect them to get it right every time when they are shown so many bad examples from abroad. The Fed on the other hand kept interest rates flat, as it has since last June, while easing its anti-inflationary language slightly – thus essentially acting as enabler to the Wall Street speculators, who had by Friday convinced themselves yet again that interest rates were about to drop.

All three countries have similar problems. In Britain, housing prices around London have soared far beyond the range of average or even affluent Britons. This isn’t just a question of monetary policy, which has been over-expansive but not excessively so. More important has been the increasing dichotomy between foreigners, who are not taxed on their “worldwide income” and Britons who are.

This has caused an enormous influx of wealthy rootless cosmopolitans to settle in London, where the great majority of their income is tax free, either because it involves one or other illicit activity abroad or because, in the financial services business, good lawyers can structure their clients’ activities and remuneration optimally. Since taxes on the average Briton have at the same time risen inexorably, as has government spending, the result has become a two-tier society, in which untaxed foreigners occupy the real estate that Britons who did not inherit it have no hope of owning.

There isn’t a good solution to this problem. Imposing British tax on foreigners, while unquestionably equitable and enabling some of the groaning burden on British taxpayers to be lifted, would almost certainly cause the financial business of the City of London to decamp elsewhere. The most probable destination would be Dublin, a master manipulator of its tax system, which is also facing a real estate meltdown and probable economic recession, and whose desire to gain business at the expense of Britain is second only to France’s.

Prior to the economically suicidal Financial Services Act of 1986, the financial services business was rooted to London by the British nationality of the major houses’ top management and shareholders. However in a world where the merchant banks have been liquidated, and the business is controlled from Frankfurt, New York or the Cayman Islands, there is no such attachment. Thus the Hobson’s choice now faced by any British government of whatever political color: the financial services businesses that appear to produce so much wealth will only remain in London if their mostly foreign managers are exempted from the taxes that normal Britons must pay. Such is the penalty for ill-considered legislation.

The problem is soluble only after a major financial crash, which will bankrupt many of the foreigners, devastate the London housing market and sharply reduce the importance and profitability of the financial services business. But that is not a fate to be wished on any country, however inevitable it may in the long run be.

China looks like the country with no problems; its last real recession was probably the hyperinflationary recession of 1948-49, as Mao Ze-dong consolidated power. The Chinese stock market is up 50% this year, after a rise of 130% last year, and is now selling on a P/E ratio of 45, while 1 million new brokerage accounts are being opened each week. Given that the Chinese banking system pays 2% on deposits at a time when true inflation is around 6%, and that it is still illegal for Chinese individuals to invest abroad, this exuberance is not surprising.

Certainly Zhou Xiao-chun, Governor of the People’s Bank of China can do no more than wring his hands. Any attempt to raise deposit rates to a more appropriate 6-7%, or lending rates up to a more appropriate 11-12%, would push the Chinese banking system into cataclysmic meltdown, since its bad debts almost certainly exceed $1 trillion. Even in China, that represents 40% of Gross Domestic Product, an amount that could with difficulty be financed but that would be hugely economically damaging until it had been safely funded with foreign debt.

There would appear to be very little hope of the Chinese middle class keeping their savings secure from a combination of a stock market crash and a banking system meltdown. Further, the uncovering of losses in Chinese state owned companies, and the new paradigm of resources at least for a few years being tight in China will cause huge unemployment at the state controlled behemoths that have been propped up by the banks, together with a major downturn in the Chinese urban real estate markets that have been so forth in the last few years. About the only consolation for the Chinese people will be that they will be joined in their losses by the half-witted foreigners who invested frenziedly in the Initial Public Offerings of the now-bankrupt Chinese banking sector. Misery, after all, likes company.

In the United States, the Fed’s initial decision last August to hold rates at 5¼% was plausible. The stock market had hiccupped in May and it could be argued that the U.S. economy needed time to catch up with rate increases already enacted and begin slowing inflation. However the stock market is up 15% since that initial decision and inflation is trending inexorably upwards, at 4% on the latest quarterly GDP deflator figure. Thus it has become clear that the current rate level has no inflation-suppressing effect. Meanwhile, in the financial markets confidence is not absent but grossly excessive, as fringe operator after fringe operator launches billion dollar buyout attempts.

Of the three economies, the United States probably has the grimmest next few years. Britain will do fine for those not involved in financial services or exposed to the London real estate market. China has cost advantages that are not going away, as more and more of its rural young migrate to the cities and enter the market economy. China’s downturn will be even more cushioned if the recent extension of private property rights to the rural poor proves effective, enabling the peasant masses to raise minimal capital and either start small businesses or re-deploy to the cities. In the long run, China will be a highly successful economy unless the government prevents it; the occurrence of a few financial crises and disasters along the way does not change this prospect.

For the United States, the reality is a darker one. Too much U.S. manufacturing capability has been redeployed to the Third World. Too much U.S. wealth has been squandered in speculation and overpriced real estate. Too much low quality immigration has taken place, undermining the living standards of the low-skill domestic workforce. An economic downturn will produce a Manichean struggle for the remaining resources, as occurred during the 1930s. In an era when protectionist sentiment is already rising, this is more than likely to produce a wrenching reorientation of U.S. society away from free trade and the free market and towards some kind of impoverished big-government socialism.

Thus burdened, U.S. business will find it very difficult indeed to climb out of recession and resume the process of improving living standards. U.S. commentators have since 1990 sneered at Japan, which found itself mired in stagnation for a decade and a half. However the future for the United States is likely to be more painful, as stock and real estate excesses must be worked off simultaneously at a time when the federal budget is under strain due to the retirement of the baby-boomers. This is however appropriate; it is the United States, through the Federal Reserve system that has since 1995 indulged in an orgy of irresponsible money creation that has fueled a decade of worldwide over-consumption. The Fed has been blamed for the onset of the Great Depression; that verdict is a little harsh but its responsibility for the unpleasantnesses ahead is unequivocal.

Finally, by referring in the first paragraph to the “criminal classes” I am not implying that these financial bubbles benefit only the Russian mafia; far from it. I am simply anticipating by a few years the verdicts of the US and EU judicial systems. In a world where former Enron Chief Executive Jeffrey Skilling gets a 25 year jail sentence, can anyone doubt that when the downturn finally comes a selection of currently highly regarded hedge fund managers, private equity find managers and investment bankers will find themselves facing several decades behind bars? They will be unlucky, just as was Skilling, that their particular organization suffered the spectacular bankruptcy that caused the random wheels of US or EU justice to grind into action. However the reality today, before the crash, is that there is no way of telling which of the moguls will be indicted and which will survive to endow major charitable foundations. Such is the lottery of a market bubble.

Excellent piece. Martin addresses the US problem of Third World immigration aka importing poverty. Today’s situation is very different from that which obtained during the huge waves of poor European migrants that took place last century or at the end of the 19th.

The quality of immigrant today is demonstrably inferior. Can anyone imagine the Somalis of Maine or the Hmong of Wisconsin emulating the Scandinavian immigrants who made so much of inhospitable Minnesota? Today’s immigrants are definitely not future middle class types.

Also the insanely generous welfare system combined with the criminal insanity of a Green Card Lottery instituted for the simple and deadly reason that there are too many Whites in the US militates against quality.

“this is more than likely to produce a wrenching reorientation of U.S. society away from free trade and the free market and towards some kind of impoverished big-government socialism.”

Or a political break-up of the USA similar to the collapse of the USSR in 1991.  The USA now is far more racially and ethnically “diverse”, unlike the greater homogeneity prevailing during the 1930s “Great Depression”.

See the recent WSJ thread highlighted by James Bowery, and the racial census graphics posted by GT in that thread.  These show the major emerging fault lines.

There is a growing overhead of “issues” coming together that insistently point towards ‘Divorce’ as the only solution.

“an enormous influx of wealthy rootless cosmopolitans to settle”

New York City, Washington, Miami, parts of Los Angeles and San Francisco are other favored international flyway watering holes for these ‘rootless cosmopolitans’, who are only upper scum floating on the New World Order’s international cash flows.  And also Jerusalem if the rootless cosmopolitan concerned has the right ancestry.

The question is not whether an international congregation of parasites can sustain a viable civilization.  The question is how the natives survive the Fall and Crash.

Some words spent covering over the fundamental problem. Throw the non-white foeriegners out. Either we do this or we are dead.

Every issue discussed here or at other pro-white web sites revolves around the race replacement of European peoples in Europa and America. What the fuck else is there to talk about?

I think everyone hear understands this obvious point. But it does need to pointed out more often

How can having too much money (which appears to be the predicament in China bemoaned by the author of this piece), ever be considereda problem?
As many of us know, one of the greatest problems in life is not having *enough* money.- - In fact low growth traced back to the constraints imposed by a perpetual balance of payments crisis has been the problem that has bedevilled Britain for over half a century - and which still imperils the nation nothwithstanding the spin, the lies and the propaganda spread by the UK government - and what’s more there is absolutely no indication that this millstone around Britain’s neck will ever be lifted.

Allowing Bill Gates having too much money is a very serious problem for the majority White American. population His billions has allowed him to become a demigod in America and on this planet. That is to say, Bill Gaes has the power of life and death over millions of White Americans. Did you ever see Bill Clinton palying golf with a White factory worker?

He did play golf quite a few times with Bill Gates.

Fuck Capitalism. Bill Gates. He can still live quite confotably with twenty million. His billions serve no other purpose than to control the lives and fate of millions of ordinary White Americans.

The descendants of those Scandinavian immigrants are the ones creating and defending the massive welfare state that attracts destitute immigrants.  These whites will gladly imprison or kill you if you refuse to support the welfare state.
Your enemies are collectivists, not all immigrants.  I know immigrants who look down on whites because of whites love of taxation and poor work ethic (at least compared to the successful immigrants I know).

I would remove native-born blacks from the country before any others.

“I know immigrants who look down on whites because of whites love of taxation and poor work ethic (at least compared to the successful immigrants I know).”

Uh huh.  Are these same “hard working immigrants” willing to acknowledge ethnic nepotistic networks, favoritism shown to them both privately (white elders who engage in psychosexual/economic warfare against younger white males by encouraging blatantly unfair “immigrant” competition) and publicly (business grants for the “socially disadvantaged”)?

Will these “hard working immigrants” eschew collectivism when this collectivism is of an ethnic nature of benefit to them, or is “individualism” only the prescription to whites?  Is it possible that whites’ “work ethic” has been eroded seeing how their jobs are outsourced (by corporations originally built by whites’ “work ethic”) and “hard working immigrants” insourced merely because they are cheaper and viewed as more pliable by business owners?  Is it possible that seeing their nation taken from them, and being dispossesed of everything they hold dear by these “hard working immigrants”, may also erode their “work ethic?”

“Your enemies are collectivists, not all immigrants.”

Does the collectivist/individualist continuum represent ultimate interests, or are all these “hard working immigrants”, representing endless numbers of lost “child equivalents” for whites, the real problem?

“A certain kind of collectivism is the problem as it is antithetical to evolutionary progress (for you evolutionists) and against biblical principles (for us Bible believers and Gary North fans). “

What is this “certain kind” of collectivism to which you refer?  Hopefully not the kind that KMacD speculates that Whites may need to turn to, as described in the last chapter of “Culture of Critique.”

By the way, an “evolutionist” wouldn’t use the word “progress” to describe the outcome of natural selection processes.  “Adaptiveness” yes, “progress”, no.  Collectivism is certainly not incompatible with adaptiveness and is in fact not incompatible with certain levels of competition - and is in fact, in some case and to some extents, required for successful group competition.

In what way are “biblical principles” opposed to collectivism?  Certainly the Old Testament cannot be against ethnic collectivism; indeed, the entire story there is an example of a collectivist ethnocentric people vs. others.  The New Testament may not encourage ethnic collectivism, but is it inconsistent with Christian communalism?

In any case, this “evolutionist” is uninterested in “the Bible”......

July 16: Hyperinflation within a year? wherein I proposed it is quite reasonable to expect to see the first signs of hyperinflation within a year due to the in-rushing of dollars no longer considered the world’s reserve currency.

My follow up posts provide further support for the general trend.

I suspect when July rolls around the real question is whether we’re merely seeing another ‘70s style stagflation or whether, as I originally predicted, the changes of the last 30 years will render another Volker-style interest spike a non-viable solution to the apparently “70s style stagflation”.  The closest I’ve seen Hutchinson come to grappling with the depth of those changes is this current article when he points out:

China looks like the country with no problems; its last real recession was probably the hyperinflationary recession of 1948-49, as Mao Ze-dong consolidated power...

For the United States, the reality is a darker one. Too much U.S. manufacturing capability has been redeployed to the Third World. Too much U.S. wealth has been squandered in speculation and overpriced real estate. Too much low quality immigration has taken place, undermining the living standards of the low-skill domestic workforce. An economic downturn will produce a Manichean struggle for the remaining resources, as occurred during the 1930s. In an era when protectionist sentiment is already rising, this is more than likely to produce a wrenching reorientation of U.S. society away from free trade and the free market and towards some kind of impoverished big-government socialism.

I suspect he’d now agree that hyperinflation is more obviously a potential for the US but that the first “signs” of it will take longer to appear than I had predicted.  I suspect come July the issue will be down to what the “signs” to look for are more than anything else.  In that regard, the closest Hutchinson came to directly discussing the criteria for a hyperinflationary “sign” is his statement:

Thus it has become clear that the current rate level has no inflation-suppressing effect.

Yes, Martin.  And I would still submit, as I did last July, that raising interest rates in an Volker-style containment of stagflation isn’t an option in an economy where white “middle class” people are placing their rent and food on their flexible-interest rate credit cards because minority groups control the social services and immigrants have lowered their wages and job stability.

If they try that they will have a revolution—violent revolution—and well they know it.

“The decendants of those Scandinavian immigrants are the ones creating and defending the massive welfare state that attracts destitute immigrants.”

Surely as in Scandinavia proper, the collectivist hive mentality is well rooted in Minnesota, Wisconsin with Minneapolis as hive central. The welfare state promoters never mention the *other* Scandinavians, the decendants of those that actually created communities in the northern prairie before the advent of the internal combustion engine.
Those that have been forced off the land, moved to the cities and or were removed by the draft and all of the damage that did to the social fabric of those communities.

We are still here.

A good example of the rootlessness and alienation is a “fictional” work by Edward Abbey, in his work the “Monkey Wrench Gang”. Here the anti hero, so to speak, is a Vietnam Veteran, “Hayduke”, when asked, “where he was from”...he said, ” from here, there and nowhere”....An example, of the plight of the dispossed.

Things will change when a critical number Whites realize they have no future in diverse America. When this happens there will be no reason to even give even a minimal amount of loyalty to the Republican-Democratic bipartisan consensus.

To be more concrete: when a critical number of White Americans can not advance beyond ten dollar an hour jobs. These are the kind of jobs that make it impossible to find a spouse and start a family. Combine   this with a growing popualtion of arrogant hindus living the American dream….

The situation will become very volatile. Whites will be very intolerant of asians.There will be massive resentment towards asians.

White America is surviving on fumes.

The hatred is just below the surface. 9/11 uncorked uncorked it briefly. That is a fact.

Americans no longer values thrift, economy or frugality as virtue.

Don’t get the cart before the horse.

It was the destruction of the affordability of family formation that created the circumstances within which thrift, economy or frugality became less valued as a virtue.  If you have no future, why invest in the future?

Make no mistake, the vicious mendacity of our enemies would like to portray the demographic collapse during the loss of boomer fertility as the fault of that generation—because then race replacement is virtuous.

That or when a $75,000 a year job is a losing proposition. When “secure” retirements are no longer secure and $500,000 houses are not the norm that will get people to asking questions and looking for “alternative” answers.

It is interesting that this article states the fact that these bubbles are dependent on widespread immigration.

Property development is a huge business, and the one way you can insure constant growth in property is to increase scarcity. Children are far too slow a return on investment - they only buy houses 20 years down the track. To get your 10% return next year you have to increase the population by 10% with adult immigrants.

I wonder if part of the reason for the immigration (aside from our Talmudist friends) is that the baby boom of 1945+ created a property boom in 1970+ and a class of property developers that required return on equity and the dollars to lobby for it. And since the baby boom was lulled into not procreating itself, that growth had to come from immigrants.

Of course, the underlying enabling of this growth as JB alluded to in another thread is our oil fed lifestyle and agriculture practices. And that is what the US dollar rests on - oil. As long as no one is willing to challenge the US military over it, or can make oil redundant through alternate energy (e.g. Nuclear + battery powered cars, tractors et al).

As long as the only way to buy that oil is through a dollar bill stamped with an all-seeing eye, the US dollar will have value even if the dollar denominated debt far exceeds the amount of dollars in circulation. The largest blue-water navy in the world, by far, secures that.

As Bowery says, I think the only option for the Fed is gentle stagflation. Which probably means New Deal style government borrowing and programs, to create the dollars if no one else will borrow. More wars, likely, since that’s probably the easiest way to convince the public that mass borrowing is necessary.

most of our white brethren were acting in a manner not in accord with “evolutionary fitness” for their particular environment - that of the impending decline of American and Dollar hegemony.

How can you call the recent environment “particular” rather than “pathological”?

Did GOD hand down this “environment” on a platter or something?

Do you really think this “environment” is the “environment” that would have been engineered if the people that brought the land to carrying capacity had had much of a say?

If so, then you are the enemy, sir.

Call that a “tantrum” if you like and those of us whose fathers built the carrying capacity of this nation will shed no tears for you when that carrying capacity is shut off at the root.

Funny—no one has ever been able to explain what a “collectivist” is in any objective sense.  As far as I can tell, it’s just the term for “heretic” preferred by members of the Jewish “libertarian” cult.  Like “racism”, “collectivism” has no place in serious discourse.

Fade, atomists would agree with you, but my point is that “collectivism” is posited as an ideology, i.e., a set of doctrines or beliefs that form the basis of a political, economic, or other system—and it is an ideology that, as far as I can tell, has no doctrines or adherents.  It’s the atomists’ bogeyman.

I was responding to daniel j. “Collectivism” is the major boogeyman of libertarians and objectivists like Ayn Rand. I’m not aware of many people who define themselves as “collectivists,” ideologically speaking. I would grant that “collectivism” does exist as an unarticulated ideal presupposed by many ideologies (i.e., the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few, man is a social being). Personally, I would place restrictions on individual liberty to promote the general welfare in all sorts of cases. Compulsory vaccination against infectious diseases would be one example.

Medieval Christian anti-Semitism was a concomitant of the highly collectivist and exclusionary medieval Christian society—another example of Western collectivism with powerful overtones of anti-Semitism. Thirteenth-century Western Christianity was, ideally at least, a societas christiana: “All of society came to be viewed as an organic unity, whose raison d’être consisted of striving for and ultimately realizing the perfect unity of Christ on earth.” ( Cohen 1982, 248). Christianity had become “a single social organism” ( Lawrence 1992, 157)—unified under the pope, substantially independent of secular power, and with a high level of religious enthusiasm and commitment at all levels of society. The group, not the individual was paramount, and every aspect of behavior was evaluated according to its effect on the harmonious organic whole. Indeed, Cohen ( 1982, 264) points out that many of the friars who developed the new, negatively-toned theological conceptualization of Judaism also had welldeveloped anti-individualist views, in which people were to strive for the benefit of the entire society. Also, as discussed in Chapter 5, this collectivist trend was accompanied by high levels of reproductive altruism by the leaders of the movement, including especially the mendicant friars, who, despite their origins among the affluent classes, adopted a monastic lifestyle of asceticism and celibacy.

Separation and Its Discontents: Toward an Evolutionary Theory of Anti-Semitism
Kevin MacDonald;

The heretical apostasies, of the post-Vatican II Catholic Church, grew right out of the Jewish holocaust, led by the Righteous Gentile Roncalli, John Paul II and now Ratzenberger.

From Nostra Ætate[1]:

“True, the Jewish authorities and those who followed their lead pressed for the death of Christ; still, what happened in His passion cannot be charged against all the Jews, without distinction, then alive, nor against the Jews of today. Although the Church is the new people of God, the Jews should not be presented as rejected or accursed by God, as if this followed from the Holy Scriptures. All should see to it, then, that in catechetical work or in the preaching of the word of God they do not teach anything that does not conform to the truth of the Gospel and the spirit of Christ. Furthermore, in her rejection of every persecution against any man, the Church, mindful of the patrimony she shares with the Jews and moved not by political reasons but by the Gospel’s spiritual love, decries hatred, persecutions, displays of anti-Semitism, directed against Jews at any time and by anyone.”

But, of course, the rejection of the Jews, Hindus, Muslims, etc. etc. does follow from the scriptures, at least according to pre-VII Catholics.

Matthew 10:33- “But he that shall deny me before men, I will also deny before my Father who is in heaven.”

Pope Eugene IV, Council of Florence, Bull Cantate Domino, 1442, ex cathedra: “…the holy Roman Church, founded on the words of our Lord and Savior, firmly believes, professes and preaches one true God, almighty, immutable and eternal, Father, Son and Holy Spirit… <b>Therefore it [the Holy Roman Church] condemns, rejects, anathematizes and declares to be outside the Body of Christ, which is the Church, whoever holds opposing or contrary views.”2</i>

92% of Americans are religious

More like 92% of Americans say they are religious. There have been many polls throughout the last 40 years asking North Americans if they attend church on a weekly basis.  Usually around 40% in the US give an affirmative answer - 20% in Canada. However more recent studies have found that the real number in both countries is approximately half that as a lot of people who claim to attend do not do so.  If 92% were religious I find it hard to believe the US would produce so much of the sewage it calls entertainment even with Jews at the helm of the industry.

Daedalu…. i am not a proponent of anarchy or any extreme individualism. i was talking about forced economic collectivism. i already made that clear.

What is your objection to economic collectivism? Why shouldn’t our trade policies be skewed to benefit American citizens as opposed to foreigners?

i don’t want to be anyone’s slave - white, black or jewish. the welfare state in any form is a boogeyman for me.

Nothing does more to precipitate tyranny than extreme individualism.

i see your point about vaccinations except that i think they are worthless. evolution in populations took care of most infectious diseases before vaccines were introduced. keeping distinct breeding groups apart tends to keep disease in check.

I would hardly call the eradication of polio, measles, and smallpox worthless.

modern liberalism = collectivism

However more recent studies have found that the real number in both countries is approximately half that as a lot of people who claim to attend do not do so.  If 92% were religious I find it hard to believe the US would produce so much of the sewage it calls entertainment even with Jews at the helm of the industry.

Allow me to expand on my previous post: 6% of Americans do not believe in God (Norris and Inglehart, 2004). A 2004 BBC survey found that 9% of Americans do not believe in God. Rice (2003) found that 3.8% of Americans do not believe in God or “a spirit or life force.” Hout and Fischer (2002) found that 3% to 4.5% of Americans are atheists or agnostics. Froese (2001) found that 8% of Americans are atheist or agnostic. Gallup and Lindsay (1999) found that 5% of Americans do not believe in God or a “Higher Power.”

The United States is almost unique amongst Western nations in its religiosity. In fact, America is one of the most religious countries in the world, period. The only other Western country where God-belief is so widespread is Ireland. As for Canada, Canadians are more like Australians and Kiwis in their religious attitudes. About 20-25% of Canadians claim not to believe in God. I can cite specific numbers if you would like. The data comes from The Cambridge Companion to Atheism.

Here is some more information about religion in American life from Samuel P. Huntington’s Who Are We?:

Overwhelming majorities of Americans affirm religious beliefs. When asked in 1999 whether they believed in God or a universal spirit, or neither, 86 percent of those polled said they believed in God, 8 percent in a universal spirit, and 5 percent in neither. When asked in 2003 simply whether they believed in God or not, 92 percent said yes. In a series of 2002-2003 polls, 57 percent to 65 percent of Americans said that religion was very important in their life, 23 percent to 27 percent said fairly important, and 12 percent to 18 percent said not very important. Seventy-two percent to 74 percent said they believed in life after death, while 17 percent said they did not. In 1996, 39 percent of Americans said they believed the Bible is the actual word of God and should be taken literally, 46 percent said they believed the Bible is the word of God but not everything in it should be taken literally word for word; 13 percent said it is not the word of God.

Large proportions of Americans also appear to be active in the practice of their religion. In 2002-2003, 63 percent to 66 percent of Americans claimed membership in a church or synagogue. Thirty-eight percent to 44 percent said they attended church or synagogue in the last seven days. Twenty-nine percent to 37 percent said they went to church at least once a week, 11 percent to 18 percent once a month, 24 percent to 30 percent seldom or a few times a year, and 13 to 18 percent never. In 2002-03, 58 percent to 60 percent of Americans said they prayed one or more times a day, 20 percent to 23 percent once or more a week, 8 percent to 11 percent less than once a week, and 9 percent to 11 percent never.

Huntington, 86-87

If religion is so important in the U.S., why is materialism so widespread? Perhaps it has less to do with the 3% of Americans who claim to be atheists than with the glorification of the pursuit of material wealth by American Protestantism.

That means that if we had free trade but tightly controlled immigration, we would have a soiety in which Joe Sixpack still had a job, and could live decently

It’s interesting that you don’t see a natural link between free trade and open borders. I don’t recall proponents of FT being so pro-foreign invasion in the late 80s and early 90s when I first started to take an interest in economics. Most FT conservatives I read back then did not appear to see the free flow of goods and human beings to be part of the same process.

If FT just naturally leads to a more cosmopolitan outlook that devalues ethnicity and real nations it didn’t seem so obvious in the past before the globalisation process accelerated and the internet became available. Surely most economists in the past considered the movement of human beings to be very different from goods and capital flows? 

I wonder if the overrepresentation of libertarians on the internet is the main reason why most of us now just assume there’s an intimate link between FT and open borders.

economic collectivism hampers innovation and destroys the will of the people to work inclining them to play.

That’s interesting. The high technology sector of the U.S. economy is subsidized by government contracts and NAS R&D. I don’t recall private entrepreneurs landing spacecraft on Titan or splitting the atom. The Soviet Union put the first satellite in orbit and launched the first man into space.

the history of the American colony at Jamestown is a good example. everybody held the wealth in common and one couldn’t own anything and as a result the people played in the summer and starved in the winter. here is an excerpt from the article:

The problem at Jamestown was a chronic abundance of land and shortage of labor. Why labor for someone when you can wander off to the frontier and squat on the land of your choice? The colonists solved this dilemma by resorting to indentured servitude and importing African slaves. Jamestown became profitable once its settlers started using African labor to grow tobacco. DiLorenzo’s claim that free labor is superior to slave labor is ridiculous. Free labor New England was an impoverished backwater compared to the wealthier Crown colonies in the Caribbean.

agree that extreme individualism is a great precursor to tyranny (typically it is concomitant with the decline of traditional religious mores) but that forced homogeneity is an even bigger one. (i.e. the Soviet Republic) Of course the problem is eliminated when the population is already homogeneous, that is to say: Overwhelmingly Euro-White in America, White English in England (I know that is redundant but bear with me), White Swedes in Sweden and so on and so forth down the list. Whites would be particularly inclined to help one another when the ethnic solidarity that binds them is able to express itself in a free country with a free market.

Individualism and free market capitalism corrodes white ethnic solidarity. Just look at the United States, Great Britain, Canada, or Australia.

In regards to vaccines you should start here: Why Vaccines Don’t Work as Advertised Here is an excerpt:

The annihilation of polio had nothing to do with the polio vaccine!

Aye…. Modern liberalism is a wild beast, not easily characterized as “collectivist” or “individualist” but I would agree the impulse is mostly a vision of a collectivist economy and an impetus to eradicate individualism through a process of the unfettered will. So I suppose it is simultaneously an individual and collective delusion which is what makes it so rife with contradiction. (I suppose since jews pretty much invented it that it naturally inherited the contradictions of modern jewry. you know chosen and universal simultaneously?)

All versions of liberalism are based on individualism: classical liberalism, neoclassical liberalism, and reform liberalism. All take for granted that society is nothing more than an association of contracting sovereign individuals who exchange their primordial liberties for social rights. The critical point of difference between neoclassical and reform liberals is not collectivism, but whether government coercion or concentrated economic power is the greater menace to individual freedom.

wealth is not inherently bad in itself, nor is pursuing it. but it is most certainly not pious Christian ceo’s responsible for the massive third world invasion.

Who are the loudest cheerleaders for third world immigration and amnesty for illegal aliens? Answer: The Wall Street Journal, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, Mexican activist groups like MALDEF, the CATO Institute, and the Catholic Church. Give us your sick, your poor, your high school drop outs, your criminals, the scum of the earth, love thy neighbor . . . such sentiments reek of the degenerate philosophy of Jesus.

as much as Americans claim to believe in God, they are simple unaware of what that actually entails.

Many believe that shunning impoverished foreigners on their doorstep is incompatible with Christian compassion. Remember, the Jews were “strangers in the land of Egypt.”

take a poll about how many Americans know the name of Martin Luther or John Calvin and you will get a much different response.Or how about the Nicene or Apostle’s Creeds, or the Westminster Confession of Faith?

Very few. Christianity is negatively correlated with education and intelligence.

No my friend, these are not protestants in any way. They don’t even have the work ethic.

It was the fanatical Protestant work ethic that built up our irrational, overproductive capitalist economy, and it is our irrational, overproductive capitalist economy that relies upon the advertising industry to brainwash Americans into becoming vapid consumers of all the junk it is constantly churning out.

They are functional atheists who live as if they will never die and never be held accountable for their behavior.

The 3% of Americans who are atheists are not responsible for the materialism of the 80%+ of Americans who believe Christianity is extremely or fairly important in their lives.

Perot predicted the job loss NAFTA would bring to the US, however, he stopped short with his analysis. As Mr. Bowery suggests US Agribusiness was front and center in the American land clearances in the Midwest, but NAFTA aided and abetted that industry in a similar phenomena in Mexico. NAFTA drove independent Mexican families from their lands because they could not compete. The result, a massive spike in illegal immigrants crossing the northern border.

It was the fanatical Protestant work ethic that built up our irrational, overproductive capitalist economy…

Possibly, but why?

Wilson describes Calvinism as adaptive. In MacDonald’s terms it would be an evolutionary survival strategy. Why the break in societas christiana? Calvin’s conflict with Servetus provides a clue. This dog may not hunt but it smells very familiar.

Servetus was born in Villanueva de Sijena, Huesca, Spain, in 1511 (probably on September 29, his patron saint’s day), although no specific record exists. Some sources give an earlier date based on Servetus’ own occasional claim of being born in 1509. His paternal ancestors came from the hamlet of Serveto, in the Aragonian Pyrenees, which gave the family their surname. The maternal line descended from Jewish Conversos of the Monzón area. In 1524, his father Antonio Serveto (alias Revés, i.e. “Reverse”), who was a notary at the royal monastery of Sijena nearby, sent young Michael to college, probably at the University of Zaragoza or Lérida. Servetus had two brothers: one who became a notary like their father, and another who was a Catholic priest. Servetus was very gifted in languages and studied Latin, Greek and Hebrew. At the age of fifteen, Servetus entered the service of a Franciscan friar by the name of Juan de Quintana, an Erasmian, and read the entire Bible in its original languages from the manuscripts that were available at that time. He later attended the University of Toulouse in 1526 where he studied law. There he became suspect of participating in secret meetings and activities of Protestant students.

Servetus built a theology which maintains that the belief of the Trinity is not based on biblical teachings but rather on what he saw as deceiving teachings of (Greek) philosophers. He saw himself as leading a return to the simplicity and authenticity of the Gospels and the early Church Fathers. In part he hoped that the dismissal of the Trinitarian dogma would also make Christianity more appealing to Judaism and Islam…

NASA, DARPA and all that shit that goes along with war is destruction and is a burden on the economy that is why they are funded by taxpayers…. duh…

You claimed above that economic collectivism stiffles innovation. That simply isn’t true. As I pointed out above, government spending is precisely what drives the American high technology sector. As for the space program being a burden on the economy, where would the telecommunications industry be today without the commercial satellites we are constantly launching into orbit? The European aerospace industry also depends upon government subsidies.

Haha… that is about the funniest thing I heard today. You could fit everybody in the world in the state of Texas!  Fuck, there is just too much land! What do we do Captain?!

Try reading an actual historian of Colonial America.

Uh-huh. That was my point, and that is the reason the introduction of private property solved the problems of the colony. You didn’t read the article did you?

That’s not true. Indentured servitude and slavery solved Jamestown’s labor problem.

I don’t think free labor is superior to slave labor, and am not even sure I believe that slavery is immoral. That isn’t the point. How should free White men organize an economy is the question we are seeking to answer. Also, slave labor blew up in our face in America, so perhaps free labor is superior.

Most contemporary historians of the transatlantic slave trade would argue that slavery was necessary to colonize the New World.

Open borders free market capitalism destroys white solidarity. (Although, ironically, it might also revive it) It isn’t the only option.

National borders are a form of protectionism (which is why free market capitalism clashes with them).

Ok fine. You win. All liberalism is primarily concerned with individual rights and liberties. No matter how you get to it, they still acknowledge a community of some sort, so there is still a balance. Freely contracting interactive beings are a community of freely contracting interactive beings

That’s not collectivism. Collectivists believe that the group takes precedence over the individual. Liberals believe just the opposite.

If I’m not mistaken only one of those groups even makes a claim to be Christian… and they aren’t, they are Catholic. You are simply confused about the philosophy of Jesus or are misinterpreting it to your advantage.

Jesus spent his life preaching to the dregs of society. The Catholic Church and mainline Protestants are simply following in his footsteps.

All hail King Disingenuous! If they fail to understand Christianity then counting them as Christians is fallacious and inflationary. Sort of like counting Hispanics as white when they are perpetrators but not when they are victims.

How are they failing to understand Christianity? Christianity is a universalist religion that lionizes the scum of the earth. The church fathers glorified ignorance and poverty.

It was the fanatical destruction of the barrier between sacred and profane committed by Jewish materialists that built up our irrational welfare state, heavily taxed and socialistic economy that relies upon the sick Jewish tainted version of “life” peddled by Madison avenue - which is nothing more than a vision of mindless consumption in the pursuit of maximum hedonism - to brainwash us through repetition on television, radio and in movies.

The welfare state was produced by mostly gentile reformers interested in ameliorating the most destructive effects of laissez-faire capitalism. The Jews are hardly responsible for American materialism. Yankees have always been notorious for their vulgar pursuit of material wealth. See the great European satires of the California Gold Rush.

The Emma Lazarus “poem” is a left-wing racialist joke. The brass plate with the poem was never officially allowed. It was attached to the inside of the base of the Statue of Liberty by private persons.

It has become a hymn sung by the no-borders crowd, however, and needs deconstructing and mocking. Here is how we did it, and I know this will not be well understood by most readers here.

We just attack people who quote the poem for their anti-immigrant bigotry and mean-spirited labeling using “huddled masses” and “wretched refuse” as examples of severe hate speech. This is an example of an attack from the left by our letter writers and emailers, and it explicitly embarrasses those who quote the poem, and has resulted in a remarkable diminution in its use in Northern California.

In fact we list “huddled masses” and “wretched refuse” in our list of slurs at:

http://www.ResistingDefamation.org/sub/slurs9.htm

We’ve rarely talked on this web site about attacking stuff from the left, but we do it often to embarrass people who wallow in sentimental stuff, having forgetten that times change and meanings change. At one time, perhaps “huddled masses” and “wretched refuse” were tear-jerkers, but nowadays they are in clear violation of left-wing racialist PC. There’s a lot of stuff like this.

Our goal is to drive this plaque off the wall of the Statue of Liberty which was about friendship between the US and France, not some sloppy sentimental attachment to immigration.

Possibly, but why?

For theological reasons, originally. The early Protestants idolized labor and abhored idleness. To labor in the earth was to glorify god. The generation of wealth was looked upon favorably as a reward for virtue. This sort of irrational production for the sake of production generates enormous wealth over time. As capitalist economies mature, they need more and more markets to dump all the junk they produce. Eventually, the old Protestant virtues like saving and thrift get in the way of this, so an advertising industry develops to increase consumption by instilling new values in the population. There is nothing about contemporary American materialism which would have been out of place in nineteenth century America.

It makes no sense. Why would a Jew echo Jesus? The Torah spews hatred of the Christ.

Christianity was adaptive. The altruism of Christ or the Mendicant Friars in the Middle Ages furthered Christian/European genetic interests.

Apparently the driving force for Luther was the indulgences and awarding titles in the Church in return for monetary contribution. England and France had expelled their Jews, however, Catholic Spain, now the center of the Catholic Church was heavily infiltrated with Conversos. And many of them held high positions in the Church. The tension in Spain, led to the Inquisition. Did it also drive Northern Europeans from the Church?

My guess would be that Jews live within a Christian environment and frame their appeals in language that Christians can understand. For example, the ADL claims that it opposes defamation of all peoples, but cynically uses universalism to cloak Jewish ethnic interests. Appealing to Christian compassion for the stranger to justify Jewish immigration makes sense from a Jewish perspective. Jews are also very skilled at exploiting the language of liberalism to further their own interests.

Christianity was adaptive. The altruism of Christ or the Mendicant Friars in the Middle Ages furthered Christian/European genetic interests.

I would argue that Christianity is a parasitic memeplex that infested and replicated in Europe to advance its own interests. Christianity is a universalist religion. Christ’s message was targeted at all peoples, not Europeans specifically. Whatever positive role Christian anti-semitism might have played in the Middle Ages, that is no longer the case today. The Catholic Church and mainline Protestant churches alike both strongly condemn racism and anti-semitism. Catholic bishops in the U.S. are amongst the strongest supporters of third world immigration.

Did it also drive Northern Europeans from the Church?

Doubtful. The Jews of Spain and Portugal fled to the Netherlands (see Spinoza in the seventeenth century). The Jews were let back into Britain after Cromwell. Germany, Poland, and Russia harbored large Jewish communities well into the twentieth century. Jews have never been excluded from the United States, Canada, or Australia. Protestantism is more individualistic and philo-semitic than Catholicism in spite of Luther’s hostility to the Jews. Jews appear to thrive better in such environments than, say, Catholic Poland or Orthodox Russia.

Lazurus was pursuing her group’s ethnic interests.

Lazarus’ latent Judaism was awakened after reading the George Eliot novel, Daniel Deronda, and this was further strengthened by the Russian pogroms in the early 1880s. This led Lazarus to write articles on the subject and to begin translating the works of Jewish poets into English. When Eastern European Ashkenazi Jews, expelled in great numbers from the Russian Pale of Settlement began to appear in destitute multitudes in New York in the winter of 1882, Lazarus interested herself actively in providing technical education to make them self-supporting.

She is known as an important forerunner of the Zionist movement. In fact, she argued for the creation of a Jewish homeland thirteen years before Herzl began to use the term Zionism.[3]

“The Catholic Church and mainline Protestant churches alike both strongly condemn racism and anti-semitism. “

Yes, but only since WWII. The Vatican II pronouncement vis-a-vis the Jews is above and a more recent Baptist statement reads:

As Baptist Christians we are the inheritors of and, in our turn, have been the transmitters of a theology which lays the blame for the death of Jesus at the feet of the Jews; a theology which has taken the anti-Jewish polemic of the Christian Scriptures out of its first century context and has usurped for the Church the biblical promises and prerogatives given by God to the Jews…The madness, the hatred, the dehumanizing attitudes which led to the events known collectively as the Holocaust did not occur overnight or within the span of a few years, but were the culmination of centuries of such Christian theology, teaching and church-sanctioned action directed against the Jews simply because they were Jews.

The Jews of Spain and Portugal fled to the Netherlands (see Spinoza in the seventeenth century).

True, but only after the Inqusition and the Protestant Reformation.

Calvin had taken a city wracked with dissension and molded it into a power far out of proportion to its economic importance. The same can be said for an offshoot of Calvinism, the Puritans of England and later the United States. Puritans wished to ‘purity’ the established Church of England from any remnants of the Catholic Church. Puritanism originated in East Anglia in England, spread to New England, and became the most important cultural influence in the United States beginning in the 18th century down to the mid-20th century. East Anglian Puritans “became the breeding stock for Americas Yankee population” and “multiplied at a rapid rate, doubling every generation for two centuries. Their numbers increased to 100,000 by 1700, to at least one million by 1800, six million by 1900, and more than sixteen million by 1988—all descended from 21,000 English emigrants who came to Massachusetts in the period from 1629 to 1640” (Fischer 1989,17).


The great majority of the Puritan founders of Massachusetts arrived with their families (Fischer 1989,25). Most were middle-class or above, but only a few were true aristocrats. Even fewer were poor: “Less than five percent were identified as laborers—a smaller proportion than in other colonies. Only a small minority came as servants—less than 25 percent, compared with 75 percent for Virginia,” and “nearly three-quarters of Massachusetts immigrants paid their own passage—no small sum in 1630” (p. 38).


By comparison with other colonies, “households throughout Massachusetts and Connecticut included large numbers of children, small numbers of servants and high proportions of intact marital unions. . . .”


The high percentage of intact families in the Puritan migration to America meant that they engaged in a much lower incidence of exogamy with the native Amerindian population (as was the case in the Spanish and especially the Portuguese colonies in the Americas), or with Black slaves (as in the Southern states), or even other European ethnic and religious groups (as in the Mid-Atlantic states). The leading Puritan families of East Anglia “intermarried with such frequency” that one historian dubbed them “a prosopograher’s dream” (Fischer 1989, 39). . . .

Anti-Federalist James Winthrop, urged his fellow New Englanders not to ratify the Constitution, instead exhorting them to “keep their blood pure” as it was only “by keeping separate from the foreign mixtures” that they had “acquired their present greatness . . . [and] preserved their relig-ion and morals” (in Fischer 1989, 845). Puritans thought of them-selves as “a Chosen People”, presumably a product of their immersion in the Bible.

Yes, but only since WWII. The Vatican II pronouncement vis-a-vis the Jews is above and a more recent Baptist statement reads:

I’m not aware of the Catholic Church ever endorsing racialism. The Church is and always has been a multiracial organization dedicated to advancing its own interests. Protestant missionaries have been evangelizing the heathen in East Asia and Africa for well over a century now. Furthermore, the roots of anti-racism in the United States can be traced back to the abolitionist movement. Radical Christians like John G. Fee and William Lloyd Garrison were already advocating colorblindness in the nineteenth century. The disease spread from abolitionism to left progressivism and from there into the New Deal coalition.

True, but only after the Inqusition and the Protestant Reformation.

The Protestant countries of Northern Europe haven’t exhibited much resistance to Jewish infection. All of this is interesting from a historical standpoint, but it is really irrelevant today. The Catholic Church and all mainline Protestant sects condemn racism and anti-semitism. Most Jews are also irreligious now. That wasn’t the case in the Middle Ages. Christianity is hardly an impermeable barrier to Jewish penetration. It is nothing a few meaningless words and a sprinkle of water can’t compromise.

Jewish political behavior in the United States is based on paranoia and hatred more than anything else. A few Jews here and there have realized that third world immigration is not in their interests. See Lawrence Auster.

That’s a good essay, Daedalus.  Did anyone catch “The Realist” saying on the Raymond thread that he feels “glee” at the idea of Irving and Zundel being jailed for their beliefs?

Hey, they went against “the common wisdom” and you know you can’t do that.

And, Daedalus of course makes the obvious point: if “anti-semitism” from, as Auster puts it, the “far-whites”, is the real reason for Jewish hostility and skepticism toward race realism, then why haven’t all the Jews flocked to the banner of “The Inverted World?”  As far as I can see, even guys like Hart are not interested, and certainly I don’t think Foxman will be giving his stamp of approval any time soon.

I just can’t quite understand why “The Realist” gets so worked up over this issue.  As far as anyone knows, he has no Jewish ancestry himself, and yet, is really blasting away at Taylor over this, in a manner which smacks, in a real sense, of ingratitude.

I don’t know where we would be without it. I’m not a psychic. It certainly stifled innovation in Russia and China.

Russia and China were impoverished, rural, agricultural societies until well into the twentieth century. Government intervention in the private economy transformed them into modern states within a matter of a few decades. Russia now has one of the highest literacy rates in the world. Russian scientists and mathematicians made many important contributions during the twentieth century. China’s scientific output has been rising dramatically, but the problem there is primarily cultural, as it is in Japan; East Asians are much more deferential towards elders and superiors.

A religion that presumes everything to be preordained is a universalistic religion? A religion in which God has a chosen and special people? That is a hoot! Don’t you understand Calvinism. God does not roll dice and he chooses a certain number of elect, period. You fail to understand as well - in the same way the jews did.

I’m quite familar with Calvinism. Predestination has not inhibited Protestants from evangelizing the heathen all across the world. The vast majority of blacks here in the United States are Protestants. There are strains of Protestantism that are racially exclusive, but this is generally not the case. Southern Baptists and Mormons have renounced racism. The Promise Keepers have multiracial congregations and stage sick displays of white guilt. Martin Luther King and Billy Graham were close allies. The former modeled his rallies and marches after the crusades of the latter. A strong argument can be made that anti-racism in America first arose amongst the Quakers.

It is spiritual. Most of the poverty and scum of the earth crap are allegory or metaphors for one’s spiritual condition before salvation. I once was blind, now I see and all that stuff. Spiritually we are all scum and all our righteounesses are as filthy rags in God’s eyes. God doesn’t glory in filth like you assert.

You see, that’s the problem with Christianity. The true Christian believes that this world is merely a way station on the road to eternal bliss. As a Christian, I will assume you are also a mind/body dualist. You probably believe that you possess an immaterial soul that is distinct from your body. It is but a short step from this premise to the belief that all men are equal because they were made in the image of God and possess immaterial souls. All men are worthless sinners. As you say, we are all scum in God’s eyes. It is precisely this sort of universalism that corrodes racial consciousness and breaks down racial barriers.

Behaving well towards all mankind shouldn’t really be an issue with men, White nationalist or not. Unless you are proposing we form an all white state and enter into permanent and total war with everyone.

I don’t feel any ethical obligations to my entire species. The fact that I am a human being is no more significant to me than the fact that I am a mammal. This is not to say that I advocate total war against nonwhites. I simply reject the discourse of human rights and the creationism it is based on.

I don’t plan on becoming “universalistic” even in an all White state anyway. There will be plenty of white scum that don’t deserve our unlimited support.

If I may ask, as a Christian, how can you racially circumscribe your ethics?

They probably also issue apologies for the slave trade and pressure government to do the same and all in the name of gaining market share in the History department. Slavery didn’t exist everywhere as long as it did in America and they all went through the industrial revolution as well, and had land upon which they grew crops. You seem to be making the argument that us whites would be unable to drive our own economies without slaves, protectorates and colonialism/imperialism.

Historians of the slave trade are hardly apologizing for it. They are simply pointing out that the economic circumstances of the New World (abundant land and chronic labor shortages) forced Europeans to rely upon forced labor to successfully plant colonies. DiLorenzo has argued in his various books and articles that free labor is superior to slave labor. That’s simply not true. The French and British slave colonies in the Caribbean produced far more wealth than free labor New England.

Yep. I’m not opposed to it either. I didn’t say I was a disciple of Rothbard. I’m not opposed to every form of collective action. I’m simply a religious conservative who believes in elimination of most government action. That also doesn’t mean I don’t believe in collectivism, I just believe in the organic as opposed to imposed and artificial variety generally.

As a rightwing conservative, you have been indoctrinated into believing that government is your enemy and collectivism is evil. Wealthy conservatives who finance conservative propaganda hate government because they don’t want the masses to use government to redistribute their wealth more equitably. Otherwise, government is fine. These same people who decry government demand that we waste billions of dollars on military spending, spend billions of dollars every year on lobbyists to corrupt the political process, use government to force unjust trade policies on third world nations, use political leverage to promote regressive taxation, and depend upon government to bail out their unsound investments abroad in places like Mexico and Brazil.

It is a good thing to leave an inheritance for your children and their children as long as you don’t hurt anyone else in the process.

There is something vulgar about chasing after material wealth beyond what is necessary to satsify one’s basic needs.

It isn’t irrational. Maybe the modern American economy is irrational as there are plenty who go without in a world where scarcity really doesn’t exist.

Sure it is. Capitalism is grossly wasteful and inefficient. It produces enormous amounts of junk beyond what is actually needed. What sense does it make for an American to import a tomato from Chile? Thanks to capitalism the oil reserves of our planet have been almost halfway exhausted in less than a hundred years.

Sure. Tell that to Jonathon Edwards.

The politician from North Carolina? American boosterism and materialism was satired by Sinclair Lewis in Babbitt during the 1920s. As I pointed out above, Yankees have always been greedy, materialistic, and individualistic. This has more to do with Protestantism than anything else.

You’d think Abe Foxman would’ve been sent packing by now and replaced with someone like Steven Steinlight, Rabbi Daniel Lapin, Rabbi Meyer Schiller, or Don Feder. You’d think wrong. The Jewish anti-Euro, pro-race-replacement groups are essentially the only Jewish game in town.  Always have been, and I fear always will be.

I think Jewish paranoia, resentment, and hatred of gentiles is a much more powerful influence in the Jewish community than rationality. Evangelical Christians are the greatest allies of American Jewry, but most American Jews hold them in contempt for historical reasons.

No. Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God J.E.

What about him?

Because of Communism, yes.

No, Russia and China were impoverished before communism. The material standard of living of Russians rose enormously under the USSR. The scientific and technological output of Russia and China increased under communism from what it had been before. The Soviet Union was a superpower rivaled only by the United States.

Uh-huh. So what? You don’t wan’t to trade with other nations from our White homeland either?

You claimed that Protestantism wasn’t universalist because of Predestination. Predestination hasn’t stopped Protestants from evangelizing heathens of all races.

They are most certainly claiming to be. But once again it begs the question: Are you a Protestant if you don’t understand Protestantism?

Protestant theologians believe only whites can be saved?

So what? I’m not a racist. You can have a White homeland and still proselytize.

That’s my point. Christianity is a univeralist multiracial religion; Protestantism included. Do you believe Heaven is segregated?

Billy Graham is a Freemason and a pathetic excuse for a Christian. MLK beat up hookers and plagiarized almost everything he wrote. These men aren’t really Protestants and I sometimes doubt their Christianity.

Billy Graham and MLK share the typical Protestant view that brotherly love is not racially exclusive.

Ok. If you let it. I do believe all men are equal in their spiritual condition. So what?

Historically speaking, this belief has been used to justify a universalist ethic which is in tension with racialism. As an atheist, I don’t believe in “spiritual equality” or immaterial souls.

You just don’t understand. There is nothing in the Bible that says I have to lay my life down for every person I come into contact with.

Perhaps. The New Testament still has inspired a universalist ethic that alienates Europeans from their own natural instincts. Do you believe in treating every nonwhite as you would treat your own ethnic kin?

Oil is abiotic. We are not running out of anything thanks to Capitalism, and there is no man-made system other than tyrannical ones that will restrain the “greed” of man. I am not a “conservative” so you have set up a straw man for yourself. Have fun.

1.) You described yourself above as a conservative.

“I’m simply a religious conservative who believes in elimination of most government action.”
—daniel j

2.) Unrestrained capitalism destroyed much of New England’s fishing stocks and is currently exhausting America’s domestic oil supply. American domestic oil production has been in decline since the 1970s. There is nothing tyrannical about government regulation. As a conservative, do you not believe that avarice is a vice and prudence is a virtue?

Do you like having food out of season? I sure do! Sometimes it makes sense and sometimes it doesn’t. I didn’t say I was advocating open-borders, all out, American style capitalism. I’d like to know what you plan on putting in its place though.

1.) I’m a progressive/communitarian.
2.) To be perfectly honest, I don’t really need most of the crap on sale at the grocery store, or the junk at the local Big Box stores either.

Oh Fade, I do absolutely love reading you smile Always have.

Anyways, I was wondering if you are familiar with the following essay concerning the essense of conservatism, written by the late* John Attarian for The Occidental Quarerly (it’s very good): http://theoccidentalquarterly.com/vol4no1/ja-requiem.html

You propably are, in which case it is for the benefit of the gallery. Can you agree with the definition that Mr. Atterian gives to ‘Conservatism’ in his essay? He also purposefully includes enviromentalism as an essential part of Conservatism. For myself I can say that I support such a philosophical stance; create and maintain a society that functions to perpetuate society in its cultural and biological form. Do you think that the conservatism thus described existed ever in the US (1950s?) or any other country?

What a far cry from the current conservatism it is, indeed.

* How sad it is, that three of our thinkers, who are spread thin as it is already, have passed away prematurely. Besides Attarian I’m thinking of Samuel Francis and Glade Whitney.

VanSpeyk,

I addressed the Attarian article, at least in part, here.

Reading it again, I still agree with it, excepting my placement of National Socialism within the zeitgeist.  At the time I regarded it as tied in by its mirror-to-Judaism character, in the same way that I see powerfully anti-semitic American WNs as lacking the motive philosophical force to operate from without the liberal spectrum.  I’ve changed my mind about NS.

Roger Scruton is probably the foremost philosopher of Conservativism alive today.  You might not consider that entirely encouraging.  The man is not ethnocentric, which I take to be an instrinsic element in a more or less conservational mindset.

That’s my point. Christianity is a univeralist multiracial religion; Protestantism included. Do you believe Heaven is segregated?

Then how do account for the rise of the new Klan?

Simmons and his right hand man Clarke shared an evangelical heritage. They were acutely aware of the power of evangelical Christianity over the Protestant masses and the vast inroads that Christian Fundamentalism had been making. Both the old and new Klan defined itself as Protestant. The issue which the KKK won most support from the churches was its vehemently anti-Catholic stance. Nationally, one of the KKK’s main strategies was to win over the Protestant clergy. It should, I believe, remain an indictment upon American Protestantism that it did this so easily. While more liberal clerics and theologians were often outspoken against Klan activities, the KKK won remarkable support amongst local churches and ministers. The KKK was supported most notably by Methodists, Baptists and the Disciples of Christ; all of which had been the most susceptible to Fundamentalism. These were the three largest Protestant denominations in the U.S; between them numbering millions of adherents. This provided the KKK with a huge audience to sow their “gospel” of hate, racism and intolerance. This occurred in cities but had most effect in towns and rural centres where most people went to church. It was an era too when a minister or pastor carried a high community status. By 1925, the KKK had proselytised over 40, 000 clergy and a significant number became Klan officials.(iii) This in turn resulted in whole communities becoming pro-Klan.

The Survival of White America requires the death of the Republic party. It doesn’t get much more obvious than this.

The"great” minds over at vdare.com spend an enormous amount of time trying to convince the Republican insiders about why open borders is a disaster for the Republican party.

The goal of the Republican party insiders is to help the corporations maximize profit as quickly as possible even of it means the extermination of White America

It is pointless trying to make the Republican party the defacto White Nationalist party. Vdare.com should be encouraging White Americans not to vote Republican.

Vdare.com also seems eager to form an alliance with the miami cubans-a crucial Republican party voting block….even though miami is spanish speaking and foriegn.

If worse is better, than maybe an amesty and and an increase in H-1B visa legal immgratin will speed things up.

White Americans vote with their feet against diversity. Passing amnesty and increasing H-1 B dirty hindu legal immigration will malke it impossible for White Amreicans to flee.

And if we are honest, we all kow what an amnesty and an increase in H-1 B legal immigration will provoke. Why would this be a bad thing?

Frank,

You can also factor into the equation Americanism itself.  Great cultural forces such as liberalism and Christianity and even Republicanism in the party sense are not only social movements observable from without, but are formative of what it means to be an American at the personal level.

None of us can exempt ourselves from the critique of modernity, for it is in us and of us.  Asking for people who are “white” to free themselves from the modern-day suicide cult is, in fact, an evangelistic and highly personal request.  They are not “white” other than by accident, since semiotically “white” is not positively expressed within the modern liberal/Christian zeitgeist.  They must become white ... kind of repair to what they truly are.

This is what I think the MR commenter Lurker meant when he said that coming to think from a nationalist POV is more akin to a religious conversion than a mere political change of mind.

Btw, what does “dirty” mean?  I trust it refers to the visa and not the Hindu!

Just how deeply do Americans believe in the myths(Lies) fed rammed into through their skulls from a very early age is a very interesting question..and may be the most important question.

European Americans don’t seem to be all that enthusaistic about putting their lives on the line to teach the Iraqis,Afganis and Iranians about feminism and the evils of racail/ethnic homogeneity.

It is truly a bizarre situation where I live. Solid White middle class neighborhood. Down the road your wife or daughter walking alone at night could be kidnapped and gang rapped by the mexicans.

I think one can say that the brain washing has been successfull to a certain extent…but not completely successfull.The brainwashing has been wide…but I’m not convinced that it is very deep. I think it is very important to make this distinction. So potentially there is the very real possibility of great change-revolt-very soon.

Lets get something out of the way. Don’t pay attention to what the defenders of intervention and empire say in public. They are not the least bit interested in spreading democracy and equality-the economic variety-around the globe. Ordinary Americans don’t beleive this nonesense either. It is all lip service.

It is the maximazation of profit -as quick as possible-that forms the basis of Republican an Democratic foriegn policy and immigration policy. An ideological infrastructure -womens rights for afghani women, America is an idea nation and therefor, whats the big deal if White Americans are racially cleansed by chinks in silicon valley and teaching the serbs a lesson about diverity by bombing the Serbian Christian civilian population -was created to justify these policies.

Goddam, I have trouble reading the print in this little box.

Isn’t that the point. You argue that Protestantism/Christianity etc is and was universal, multi-racial and all-embracing. Yet example after example shows that it promoted white/group supremacy, and exclusion, not only racially but philosophically as well. By all appearances, it was a philosophic means to promote EGI. The Know-Nothings were anti-Catholic and some anti-slavery, some, pro-slavery, however, did not embrace blacks and promoted black repatriation. Up until WWII there was not a Christian group in North America, even in Canada, that did not believe in preserving overwhelming Europeaness.

The demarckartion line was the Jewish holocaust and Aldolph’s pronouncements, in Mein Kampf and various speeches, that he was a Christian and doing the Lord’s work. It sent Christian churches scurrying for cover, abandoning their racialism.

That’s true.

You are losing me here. How was the second Klan promoting EGI? Their quarrel with Southern and Eastern European immigrants was religious in nature.

The Know-Nothings were anti-Catholic and some anti-slavery, some, pro-slavery, however, did not embrace blacks and promoted black repatriation.

No one really “embraced” blacks in the mid-nineteenth century except for the abolitionist fringe of the Republican Party. As for repatriating blacks to Africa, this was a popular cause amongst Border South unionists in states like Missouri and Kentucky; Deep South states associated repatriation with anti-slavery. What did that have to do with religion, though? Masters and slaves alike were Protestants. White non-slaveholders in the Border and Upper South wanted to get rid of blacks for racial and economic reasons.

Up until WWII there was not a Christian group in North America, even in Canada, that did not believe in preserving overwhelming Europeaness.

Aside from the Mormons, I am not aware of a single Christian denomination in the United States that did not evangelize nonwhites prior to the Second World War. Black Americans are overwhelmingly Protestants today.

The demarckartion line was the Jewish holocaust and Aldolph’s pronouncements, in Mein Kampf and various speeches, that he was a Christian and doing the Lord’s work. It sent Christian churches scurrying for cover, abandoning their racialism.

You are also wrong about Christianity in America prior to the Second World War. Most states in the Midwest and New England had repealed their anti-miscegenation laws and banned segregation in education and public education decades before WW2. There were plenty of multiracial schools, interracial marriages, and multiracial congregations in the North prior to WW2.

You are losing me here. How was the second Klan promoting EGI? Their quarrel with Southern and Eastern European immigrants was religious in nature.

The two correlate strongly. Northern Europeans or more specifically Anglo-Saxons are/were predominantly Protestant. Southern and Eastern Europeans predominantly Catholic. If you look at Salter’s chart of Euro-ethnicity, you can see genetic distance between Poles and Anglos or Italians, especially from the south and Anglos. The English and Poles are more genetically distant than the English and Germans or even closer the English and Dutch. Even though American Protestants may not have known/understood the genetic differences, their religion, with its anti-papal stance, provided a philosophy that embraced an exclusion of an outgroup thus preserving EGI.

The point regarding Europeaness was directed at immigration. Christian groups did not advocate for race-replacement of the Euro-American population thru mass immigration until after WWII. The evangelising of indigenous black groups makes sense, IMO, from an adaptive POV because, although I don’t have the numbers, a black Christian population would be less of a threat to whites, i.e. criminality, rapes, murders etc. than a pagan black population, which is largely what you have today. It doesn’t mean that they promoted intermarriage etc., until after WWII.

Anti-miscegenation laws, in my view, were elitist tools to provide a yeomen buffer group and limit the risk of insurrection and riots. With blacks being free and not nearly as numerous in the North as in the South, AML played against elite interests.  It’s the same principle as today. It’s divide and conquer, a triangulation strategy.

Yes. But so what? That hardly implies that Christianity is not a universalist religion. A Protestant can convert to Catholicism, and vice versa. These labels are not racially or ethnically exclusive. There are hundreds of millions of nonwhite Catholics in Latin America. Similarly, there are millions of nonwhite Protestants throughout the world; including here in the United States. Both are multiracial categories. A Frenchman is more closely related to an Englishman than he is to a black Catholic from the Congo. A white Southerner is more closely related to a Catholic German than a black Protestant Southerner.

you look at Salter’s chart of Euro-ethnicity, you can see genetic distance between Poles and Anglos or Italians, especially from the south and Anglos. The English and Poles are more genetically distant than the English and Germans or even closer the English and Dutch. Even though American Protestants may not have known/understood the genetic differences, their religion, with its anti-papal stance, provided a philosophy that embraced an exclusion of an outgroup thus preserving EGI.

You are conflating American Protestantism with the Second Ku Klux Klan here. While many American Protestants opposed mass immigration from Southern and Eastern Europe on religious groups, others did not, or opposed European immigration for different reasons. Most American Protestants chose not to join the second Klan. Furthermore, the Klan’s opposition to Catholic immigration was motivated by the notion that Catholic immigrants would undermine American liberty and vote en masse in favor of Vatican supported public policies. The fact that Protestant America had such a huge immigration problem in the first place belies the notion that Protestantism was an effective vehicle for preserving white American EGI.

The point regarding Europeaness was directed at immigration. Christian groups did not advocate for race-replacement of the Euro-American population thru mass immigration until after WWII.

The Midwest and New England already had post-1965 state civil rights laws by the late nineteenth century; over half a century before the Second World War. Presumably, the racial views of Northern Christian congregations reflected the anti-racism of Northern state statutes.

The evangelising of indigenous black groups makes sense, IMO, from an adaptive POV because, although I don’t have the numbers, a black Christian population would be less of a threat to whites, i.e. criminality, rapes, murders etc. than a pagan black population, which is largely what you have today.

Christianity is not a racially exclusive religion or even an ethnically based one like Judaism. Instead of expelling blacks from the United States, Northern Christians welcomed nonwhites instead into the churches, homes, schools, and beds. They went abroad to Sub-Saharan Africa, Japan, China, and Korea to convert the heathen there. They abolished slavery and gave blacks full U.S. citizenship. They passed the 14th Amendment and the civil rights acts of Reconstruction to criminalize racial discrimination against blacks. I suppose that is consistent with protecting white American EGI in your opinion.

It doesn’t mean that they promoted intermarriage etc., until after WWII.

Once again, miscegenation was perfectly legal in most Northern states long before WW2. Miscegenation was already quite common in degenerate Northern speakeasies during Prohibition. Interracial couples were getting married in Northern churches years before WW2.

Anti-miscegenation laws, in my view, were elitist tools to provide a yeomen buffer group and limit the risk of insurrection and riots. With blacks being free and not nearly as numerous in the North as in the South, AML played against elite interests.  It’s the same principle as today. It’s divide and conquer, a triangulation strategy.

Before 1967, black/white intermarriage in the South was virtually nonexistent. Such legislation had overwhelming support amongst white Southerners too. Most whites in Alabama voted as recently as 2000 to retain their state anti-miscegenation law. Millions of blacks immigrated from the South to the North during the early twentieth century too. By the 1960s, most blacks were living in urban areas outside the South.

It was also ethnic and economic in nature. For an organisation of old stock Americans it made sense to resist changes brought about by people with different interests and worldviews. If millions of Slavic Protestants had arrived to provide cheap labour surely the Klan would have opposed them too? Was religous doctrine itself really their main concern or just another badge of ethnic identity?

Looking at similar resistance shown by Anglo-Saxon Protestants in Canada to Eastern European immigration Catholicism was just another foreign characteristic along with language and nationality. If the ‘otherness’ of the newcomers’ Catholicism helped reinforce the ethnic solidarity of the majority Anglo-Saxons then religion played a positive role*. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that Canadian Anglo-Saxon resistance to multiculturalism began just as religiosity declined.

I don’t know if any of this matters in 2007. But looking at the historical record there’s no evidence to suggest that it Christianity was maladaptive. Nor was it inevitable that Christianity all along would go from El Cid and Jan Sobieski to Cardinal Mahony and Tony Blair.

*The same could be said of Ireland where the Catholicism of the “native” Irish played a vital role in not only preserving their Irishness but in taking control of nationalism from the Anglo-Irish.

Yes. But so what?  Etc.

All true,  however the point was that white Protestants in the US or Canada or white Catholics in Eastern or Southern Europe did not encourage mass migration of non-European Protestants or Catholics into white homelands. That changed after WWII.

The fact that Protestant America had such a huge immigration problem in the first place belies the notion that Protestantism was an effective vehicle for preserving white American EGI.

Sure, I’ve argued this position before. The past begets the future. The elites are constantly encouraging cheap labour. The Know-Nothings were adamantly opposed to Catholic immigration, but were undermined during the war and with the growing liberalism. Protestant/Klan vanguards pushed for ending immigration and the 1924 restriction was enacted. The point made previously is that the resistance must be more than just racialism. It needs a philosophical foundation. Protestantism provided that foundation. The whole issue of undermining freedom and serving two masters, embraces the EGI issue without having to explicitly understand it.

The Midwest and New England already had post-1965 state civil rights laws by the late nineteenth century; over half a century before the Second World War.

It serves certain elite interests. The mills in New England wanted the cheap Irish, Italian and French-Canadian Catholic and even black labour. Relaxing restrictions aided and abetted that cause.

Christians welcomed nonwhites instead into the churches, homes, schools, and beds.

It would be nice to see the evidence for that assertion. Grandmother’s story was that the whites in her 1926 Bronx neighbourhood left their church when the blacks moved in.

I suppose that is consistent with protecting white American EGI in your opinion.

No it’s not, but then when have elites ever been concerned about white EGI whether in the US, UK or Europe.

Miscegenation was already quite common in degenerate Northern speakeasies during Prohibition.

Miscegenation was quite common in Jamestown as well or in the Caribbean or South Africa. However, that is on the fringes of the Christian society of the time and as you say it was degenerates.

Interracial couples were getting married in Northern churches years before WW2.

Yet again, the governing elites advocated it. In the 1930s, in a town called Oakville, outside Toronto, the Klan intervened in an interracial marriage to be and was prosecuted vigorously for their action. And yes the couple was eventually married in the home of a Protestant minister in a neighbouring town, however, it was not common place. The Ontario Klan was Protestant and very racially aware.

Most whites in Alabama voted as recently as 2000 to retain their state anti-miscegenation law.

Again, governing elites are not interested in preserving their people if it undermines their position. Why? They do not view their white lesser any differently than blacks, yellows or browns.

All true, however the point was that white Protestants in the US or Canada or white Catholics in Eastern or Southern Europe did not encourage mass migration of non-European Protestants or Catholics into white homelands. That changed after WWII.

Is that so? If there was no political support for non-Anglo Protestant immigration, how did the millions of Irish, German, Polish, and Italian Catholics get here then? To my knowledge, Protestantism has never been a requirement to become a naturalized U.S. citizen. European Catholics have always been eligible to immigrate to the U.S.

Sure, I’ve argued this position before. The past begets the future. The elites are constantly encouraging cheap labour. The Know-Nothings were adamantly opposed to Catholic immigration, but were undermined during the war and with the growing liberalism.

Know-Nothingism was a convenient way for ex-Whigs from the South to ally themselves with ex-Whigs from the North without appearing soft on slavery. Kansas, Dred Scott, and John Brown’s raid on Virginia shifted the focus of national attention back to slavery.

Protestant/Klan vanguards pushed for ending immigration and the 1924 restriction was enacted. The point made previously is that the resistance must be more than just racialism. It needs a philosophical foundation. Protestantism provided that foundation. The whole issue of undermining freedom and serving two masters, embraces the EGI issue without having to explicitly understand it.

The Immigration Act of 1924 was passed only because the business community relaxed its opposition to immigration reform.

It would be nice to see the evidence for that assertion. Grandmother’s story was that the whites in her 1926 Bronx neighbourhood left their church when the blacks moved in.

Segregation in public schools had been illegal in most Northern states since the late nineteenth century. Several Northern states even had laws against the “defamation” of blacks on account of their race in film and print. This was during the early twentieth century, long before WW2. Multiracial institutions of higher learning like Oberlin College in Ohio had existed since before the Civil War in the North. Frederick Douglas was married to a white woman who was a relative of John Adams.

No it’s not, but then when have elites ever been concerned about white EGI whether in the US, UK or Europe

This elite was overwhelmingly Protestant, too; at least until the mid-twentieth century. Jews were flooding into Ivy League colleges during the early twentieth century. They had already taken over Columbia by the 1920s.

It serves certain elite interests. The mills in New England wanted the cheap Irish, Italian and French-Canadian Catholic and even black labour. Relaxing restrictions aided and abetted that cause.

Presumably, the Protestant elites of New England went along with this.

Is that because of Protestantism, or in spite of Protestantism? Were all white Protestants racially aware during the early twentieth century; in the Anglosphere and Northern Europe?

Miscegenation was quite common in Jamestown as well or in the Caribbean or South Africa. However, that is on the fringes of the Christian society of the time and as you say it was degenerates.

Blacks started arriving in Jamestown in 1619, but did not start coming in considerable numbers until the 1650s. In 1649, blacks were only 2% of the population of Virginia. Virginia passed its first anti-miscegenation law in 1662; Bermuda in 1663; Maryland in 1665. Virginia and other Southern states retained their anti-miscegenation laws until they were all struck down in Loving v. Virginia in 1967.

Miscegenation was actually widespread in the English Caribbean colonies during the seventeenth century. See David Brion Davis’ Inhuman Bondage: The Rise and Fall of Slavery in the New World. It got so bad in Barbados and Jamaica that it ceased to be taboo. Carribbean style miscegenation was also widespread in early colonial South Carolina which was founded by white settlers from Barbados. New Orleans has always had a Latin America style racial caste system unlike the rest of the Lower South.

The North has long been experimenting with racial egalitarianism. Benjamin Franklin, for example, was already arguing against Jefferson’s racial theories during the late eighteenth century. Several of the various anarchist utopian communes in the North were multiracial. Vermont and New Hampshire never passed anti-miscegenation or segregation laws. Massachusetts was the first state to repeal its anti-miscegenation law in 1843.  Rhode Island (1881), Maine (1883), New Mexico (1886), Ohio and Washington (1887) followed during the nineteenth century. The Midwest was very racist up until the Civil War. Afterwards, Midwesterners became more like New Englanders in their racial attitudes. The South remained a world of its own until well into the 1970s.

Again, governing elites are not interested in preserving their people if it undermines their position. Why? They do not view their white lesser any differently than blacks, yellows or browns.

The churches are opposed to racism and anti-semitism. They support interracial marriage.

Clearly there was a bounty of interracial marriage, on the fringe of the European world, including aboriginals. [John Rolfe & Pochantas]

Why?

And if this bounty of interbreeding was commonplace, what changed? Why the anti-miscegenation laws?

The critical factor seems to be the density of the nonwhite population and access to white women. The Spanish and Portuguese, for example, took Indian wives and mistresses in their New World colonies. It is less well known that the English did the same in Barbados and Jamaica. In its earliest years, South Carolina was densely black (over 70%, if I recall), and relaxed racial attitudes towards miscegenation prevailed in Charleston. As South Carolina whitened and a stable European settlement emerged there, this began to change. Virginia and Maryland were already stable white colonies before they began to import black slaves. They reacted defensively and passed anti-miscegenation laws to preserve the color line.

Massachusetts was the first American state to repeal its anti-miscegenation law in 1843. The crusade against the law was one of the first victories of the abolitionist movement which charged anti-miscegenation laws were incompatible with individual liberty. The precedent set in Massachusetts would soon be followed by other Northern states after the Civil War. Prior to the Civil War, the Midwest was a very racist region with many Jim Crow style laws. Free blacks were not even allowed to settle in Illinois. The Civil War against the “Slave Power,” as it was known in those days, highlighted the ideological commitment of Yankees to liberalism. After the war, the North began to immediately dismantle its anti-miscegenation and segregation laws. A brief attempt was made to impose this Northern racial order upon the South during Reconstruction. It happened again after the Second World War against Nazi Germany.

How do you view the Pocahantas letter, and the Bacon rebellion in relationship to Virginia’s miscegenation laws.

Virginia had already passed an anti-miscegenation law before Bacon’s Rebellion. As for Pocahantas, I don’t believe Euro/Amerind intermarriage was forbidden. The Virginia gentry was boasting of its descent from Pocahantas well into the twentieth century.

Re Davis (1630) ... “Hugh Davis to be soundly whipt . . . for abusing himself to the dishonor of God and shame of Christianity by defiling his body in lying with a Negro, which fault he is to actk. next sabbath day.”40

Virginia passed its first miscegenation law in 1691 as part of “An act for suppressing outlying Slaves.”

  And for prevention of that abominable mixture and spurious issue which hereafter may encrease in this dominion, as well by negroes, mulattoes, and Indians intermarrying with English, or other white women, as by their unlawfull accompanying with one another, Be it enacted by the authoritie aforesaid, and it is hereby enacted, that for the time to come, whatsoever English or other white man or woman being free shall intermarry with a negroe, mulatto, or Indian man or woman bond or free shall within three months after such marriage be banished and removed from this dominion forever. . . .41

1691, after the Bacon rebellion and interesting in it’s contradiction of the approval given to John Rolfe vis-a-vis Pocahantas.

Rolfe’s consternation is quite clear;

To you therefore (most noble Sir) the patron and Father of us in this countrey doe I utter the effects of this setled and long continued affection (which hath made a mightie warre in my meditations) and here I doe truely relate, to what issue this dangerous combate is come unto, wherein I have not onely examined, but throughly tried and pared my thoughts even to the quick, before I could finde any fit wholesome and apt applications to cure so daungerous an ulcer. I never failed to offer my daily and faithfull praiers to God, for his sacred and holy assistance. I forgot not to set before mine eies the frailty of mankinde, his prones3 to evill, his indulgencie of wicked thoughts, with many other imperfections wherein man is daily insnared, and oftentimes overthrowne, and them compared to my present estate. Nor was I ignorant of the heavie displeasure which almightie God conceived against the sonnes of Levie and Israel for marrying strange wives, nor of the inconveniences which may thereby arise, with other the like good motions which made me looke about warily and with good circumspection, into the grounds and principall agitations, which thus should provoke me to be in love with one whose education hath bin rude, her manners barbarous, her generation accursed, and so discrepant in all nurtriture frome my selfe, that oftentimes with feare and trembling, I have ended my private controversie with this: surely these are wicked instigations, hatched by him who seeketh and delighteth in mans destruction; and so with fervent praiers to be ever preserved from such diabolical assaults (as I tooke those to be) I have taken some rest.

Virginia passed its first anti-miscegenation law in 1662: “If any Christian shall commit fornication with a Negro man or woman, hee or shee soe offending will pay double the usual fine.”

Maryland followed in 1665:  “Foreasmuch as divers freeborne English women forgettfull of their free condition and to the disgrace of our Nation doe intermarry with Negro slaves by which alsoe divers suites may arise touching the Issue of such woemen and a great damage doth befall the masters of such Negroes for prevention whereof for deterring such freeborne women from such shameful matches.”

How can having too much money (which appears to be the predicament in China bemoaned by the author of this piece), ever be considered a problem?

It’s not really money.

Not really. The Virginia colonists went through a shift in self identification during the seventeenth century. Originally, they described themselves most frequently as “Christians,” but as the years passed and the number of blacks increased, “Englishmen” and “whites” in that order because the terms of choice. To my knowledge, the Anglican Church has never claimed that nonwhites are incapable of attaining salvation or that miscegenation is forbidden on doctrinal grounds. The racial consciousness of English settlers in seventeenth century colonial Virginia was inspired by the frontier environment, specifically, their presence on an alien continent amongst hordes of Indians and Negroes. Anglicans back in England did not share the racialism of their American counterparts.

Except that Rolfe’s letter was written in, what, 1614 before the first Africans arrived and long before the century of travaille on the American frontier. Clearly Rolfe was imbued with a sense of trepidation stemming directly from “the heavie displeasure which almightie God conceived against the sonnes of Levie and Israel for marrying strange wives…”

Desmond,

Thanks for your comments. If I were as ready and informed as you are I would be having the same dialogue with the good Daedalus. Much of what you argue is compatible with the positions of the kinists at SpiritWaterBlood, formerly known as Little Geneva. There was a time when racialism was considered a function of sanctification, as you point out so well.

Daedalus writes: “The Jim Crow South was by far the most racist regime on earth during its time and only grew more authoritarian over time. ... The Jim Crow South was a one party state united in the defense of white supremacy.”

And all while being the most Christian region of the United States.
