So you think you are a nationalist?Or a British nationalist, anyway. Well, perhaps you are. But you can now test the thesis courtesy of the Daily Telegraph. As part of its coverage of the General Election the paper has installed an online engine called Vote Match - presumably a development from dating software. Anyway, there’s nothing to interest lonelyhearts in the match of voter attitudes to party positions which it calculates. I tried Vote Match twice this morning so I could get a reading for all six parties (it only allows three at a time) and obtained the following result:
The degree of match, as indicated by the percentages, seems a little high for UKIP and Greens, and I am not sure quite why the Labour Party stands above the Liberals - I am equally disinterested in them both. But in other respects it seems very fair - not least in that, unlike the voter poll in The Sun for example, it actually included the BNP in the exercise. It’s a given that the party’s policies are far more popular than the party itself - something quite a few innocents will doubtless discover when they hit the last button. The questions about health, education, pensions and so forth are probably too domestic for non-Brits. But let’s see some results for MR readers who will be voting in the Westminster election next month.

Posted by Frank on April 08, 2010, 03:16 PM | # In the US we have numbersUSA Congressional report cards. Voters ought to always vote for the individual candidate, at least in the US system. Institutions such as political parties can and are routinely taken over by an enemy faction - Nick Griffin won’t live forever for example. You want voters to vote for values (e.g. immigration moratorium and independence from the EU) not blind partisanship. I know the British system is different though, that the party plays a larger role, but regardless it seems y’all should be ready to move should a takeover occur. In the US we have blind loyalty to Republicans / Democrats Game Cocks / Tigers (college football) etc. No matter who’s in charge, the same fans come out in support. What’s needed are principled men who fight for their people, regardless of the institution’s current name. 5

Posted by Guessedworker on April 08, 2010, 07:31 PM | # Fred, Nationalism is, or should be, a political and philosophical thought-world, in its totality comparable to and competitive with liberalism. It is not simply an instinctual, reflexive feeling for an ethnic or racial cause - which, of course, is what nativism is. Nativism is sufficient for the purposes of peoples who do not create high civilisations ... people who do not inhabit a complex ideational world. Europeans are, in my judgement, bound to require ideas and not just instincts by which to live. This has pretty much been the core of my input at MR. We have to replace the liberal ideas which formulate our sociality, and contain all its possibilities - including the possibility of interference, in fact massive interference, from a well-known hostile source. Right now the only systemic nationalist alternative to liberalism is fascism. It is clear to (almost but not quite) everybody that fascism cannot work for us. But neither can the flight from fascism into nativism. This is why MR is interested in a new global idea, Fred, and why, as far as I can see, it is unique in English-speaking nationalism. 10
Posted by Fred Scrooby on April 08, 2010, 09:07 PM | # GW thank you for explaining that. By the way, here are my results: The government should withdraw troops from Afghanistan within a year. Yes The UK’s stock of nuclear weapons should be reduced. No (should if anything be increased) The Bank of England should have overall responsibility for financial regulation. Skip (don’t know the issue) The Government should be compelled by law to halve the budget deficit within 4 years. Open minded (that deficit should be reduced, perhaps not by half in 4 years but not too much slower than that) All Government departments should face some of the spending cuts necessary to reduce the budget deficit. Disagree (not all: any departments potentially useful in humanely repatriating the racially unlike should have their budgets increased to the max) All companies that employ more than 250 people should be forced to publish an annual report comparing the average pay of men with the average pay of women in the company. Disagree The total hours allowed in a working week should not be decided by the EU. Agree People on job seeker’s allowance who refuse a job should lose their benefits. Yes, all other things being equal. I almost put “open minded” because there are circumstances in which I would disagree – a woman with an infant for example should not have to return to work, and so on (and very few non-white women with infants should be in the UK) We should build new nuclear power plants. Agree Man made climate change is a myth. Agree Asylum seekers should be allowed to work in the UK while waiting for their application to be processed. Disagree. For one thing, no such application takes that long to process that an applicant has to be gainfully employed while waiting. For another, of course, virtually no asylum seeker applications should even be considered: in this day and age 99.9999999% of them are bullshit, and they are used by the usual suspects as one further device for bringing about race-replacement. ID cards should be compulsory for immigrants and asylum seekers. Open minded. There should be no non-white immigrants or asylum seekers and few white ones. For the few there should be, I suppose they should be compulsory, OK. But it really should be a non-issue since what needs to happen is for all non-Euros to be cleared out of the British Isles along with all “liberals,” Jews, communists, parasitic capitalist crooks, compradors, clueless females, and assorted degenerates who protest at the clearances. Clear them all out. People convicted of crimes who were not born in this country should be deported. Open minded because not a hard-and-fast thing. Depends on what race they are, what their crime was (for example if their crime was the same as the Heretical Two’s crime they should be made life peers), how long they’ve been here, how they got here, what they’re doing here, and so forth. The real point is all racial/ethnocultural incompatibles regardless of crime should be humanely subjected to pressures (the “stick,” or the “push”) and positive incentives (the “carrot,” or the “pull”) encouraging them to choose the repatriation option, and the people who let them enter in inappropriate numbers in the first place should be arrested and given fair trials on, for the most part, capital charges. There should be a referendum on changing the electoral system for General Elections in the next Parliament. Skip (don’t know the issue) The number of MPs should be reduced by 10%. Disagree The Government should legislate for elections to the House of Lords within the next Parliament. Skip (don’t know the issue) Legislation should be passed during the next Parliament so that pensions are tied to average earnings. Skip (ditto) The retirement age should be scrapped. Disagree There should be an English Parliament. Agree. Europewide there should be something along the lines of Norman Lowell’s Regionalism. There should be a referendum on the UK’s continued membership of the European Union. Agree. An honestly worded one. Marriage should be incentivised through the tax system. Agree: white marriages and babymaking by white couples should be incentivized through the tax system, non-white babymaking strongly disincentivized. Right now it’s the exact opposite. Estates less than £1million pounds should not be liable for inheritance tax. Agree. There should be no inheritance tax. People earning less than £10,000 pounds a year should not have to pay income tax. Agree. There should be no income tax. New prisons need to be built to ease overcrowding. No that’s not the best solution to violent crime. The solution is keeping the country racially as it was in 1955 minus the Empire Windrush, and if the country is no longer that way thanks to Jews, communists, compradors and capitalist pigs, and clueless women voters, do what’s necessary to get it that way. Homeowners should be free from prosecution when protecting themselves against intruders. Agree. Obviously there’s a need to use judgement here too, such as not throwing Halloween pranksters into a vat of boiling oil, but no one in his own home confronting a burglar in the dark who kills or gravely wounds him with a firearm for example should face any prosecution whatsoever, once an investigation has established those were the facts. The same goes for being attacked on the public street. You use whatever force you need to defend your and your loved ones’ life and limb. The government doesn’t like it? Stop letting all the Negroes into the country. Insist on letting them in? OK, the people will protect themselves. SATs tests for eleven year olds should be scrapped. Skip (don’t know the issue). The way to maintain educational standards is to keep the race as it was. If it’s no longer as it was, get it that way and arrest and try whoever changed it, punishing all who are found guilty as severely as possible. They knew perfectly what they were doing. Then have whatever testing scheme you like in schools. There should be tax breaks for parents who choose to take their children out of school and teach them at home. Open minded. You wouldn’t need home schooling if the government would stop converting the country from white to Negro, from Christian to Moslem, from normal governance to el-sicko Jewish-and-communist overlordship, and so on. University tuition fees should be scrapped. Open minded. The cost of NHS administration should be cut by one third. Skip An independent board should allocate NHS resources to different parts of the country. Skip Select the issues you feel are most important: immigration. Least important: they bundled “employment” together with “equal opps.” In order to get at the Stalinist “equal opportunities for non-white races” bureaucracy I chose that choice. They bundled them together on purpose so people couldn’t separate them, obviously. Another trick they used was stating the immigration issue as immigration. It’s not. It’s race-replacement of the entire British Isles, phasing out white people, and so forth. State it the proper way and everyone will choose it. Parties to compare: BNP, UKIP, Tories Results: BNP 80%, UKIP 73%, Tories 51% 11
Posted by Dan Dare on April 08, 2010, 09:43 PM | # Looking at Fred’s list the only significant area of disagreement would be on climate change, on which I was open-minded. The BNP is making the climate change ‘hoax’ one of its three main campaign platforms which I feel is a mistake, first because it won’t really resonate with the electorate and second because there is still no real scientific consensus. Griffin states the objection that carbon taxes would be levied to support the development of Chinese and Indian industry and this is obviously deplorable, but it would be better in my view to attack the fiscal arrangements than to dabble in the science. Another minor area of disagreement is the number of MPs which I thought should be reduced. There are more MPs at Westminster than Members of Congress, which seems to me to be nonsensical given the relative sizes of the populations. More quality and less quantity would seem to be a better way forward, especially when we are presented with daftness like Cameron’s Cuties. 12

Posted by Guessedworker on April 09, 2010, 06:37 PM | # Gorb: Why are the Tories doing so well here? It is a product of the pulling apart of individualism and kin-preference under the action of liberalism. It forces us into a false polarity, some “conservative”, some “socialist”. Uniting (or, at least, reconciling) these wholly human characteristics is what a real philosophy of folk and nation, and not a fantasy-philosophy like fascism, should do. 18
Posted by Captainchaos on April 09, 2010, 09:22 PM | #
I keep asking myself what that would look like. What you and PF have produced in that vein does not answer that question, it only addresses the alleged injuries that fascism does to us as fascism is, as you contend, discordant with our nature. The nascent philosophy is so far only, well, anti-fascist. Or, to put it another way, it desires the social unity and felt purpose fascism imbues the people with except without the authoritarian and mythical methods used to produce it. So the question boils down to, as far as I can see, how to produce those desired ends without those undesired means. In what way do people have to think, and different types of people of the same people have to think, to render their behavior such that social unity and a commonly felt purpose are achieved. 19
Posted by Gorboduc on April 10, 2010, 05:12 AM | # @CC: spot on. All philosophies exist in the mind, and therefore any philosophy that’s disliked can be easily presented as “fantasy-philosophy” when you can’t refute it. If c) is going to involve you in ontology, teleology and all the rset of ‘em, clarify your approach by reading Frank Sheed’s Society and Sanity 20
Posted by Guessedworker on April 10, 2010, 07:17 AM | # CC, We have only gestured in the direction of a metaphysical ontology. Others may have different ideas. We are open to them. Wait for the real debate to begin. It will not be long now, only days.
That would be very superficial of us, if that were the case.
Well, the mechanics are straightforward. A separation from all that which is not of the self begins with a habitation of the self. This is the truth, CC. This is how life actually works. By contrast, fascism generates a violent ascension towards a misty, essentially religious image of the kingship of the martial virtues. The first image that took hold this way, in 1922, was that of a new and glorious Imperial Rome. Italians who, it turned out, could not tie down even a little patch of North Africa, were told to march on it, heads held high, eyes fixed on the horizon: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HNF3ZwXoaCU&feature=related It’s not that there is no inspiration for people here, or that it is not extremely intoxicating while the music plays and the camera rolls. It’s that such inspiration is narrowing and anti-human and, in the end, destructive to self and to others. The new Imperial Rome never existed as a real possibility. The Thousand Year Reich likewise. We need to learn this, cease relying on myth and fantasy, and move on.
Yes, but the social unity is enough. Felt purpose is something alien to peoplehood, and needs to be handled with greatest care and always with scepticism.
They do not have to think in any specified way. They have to be freed of all specification in this respect, so they may actually think for and of themselves. This is the inevitable, natural outcome of a global ontological discourse, and it is profound. It is what people long for. It is a freeing, a release from authority and from error, a coming home, an opening of the way. They, the people, will be, which for the mass of them may mean no more than to cognise one another, understand more about and value one another, to live together, to decide for one another. This is enough, CC, and it is also vast. And the gentleness of the words is deceptive. They describe the destruction of postmodernity and its ills, of neoliberalism and the American way of life, of the system of power, of everything, and in place of it all the establishing of a collective life on the one essential foundation of collective being. Why would you not find such a real and natural possibility inspiring? 21
Posted by Guessedworker on April 10, 2010, 07:45 AM | # Gorb,
As a general guide, the human is real while the more than human is fantasy. Put this way, we Europeans have not had a human philosophy since the coming of Christianity. But I’m not wanting to get bogged down in the religious debate again. I accept that the Christian faith cannot be simply changed. However, the more than human characteristics of it which have fed down through its secularisation into liberalism became very harmful indeed as hardened political forms. We all know that. And these forms are perfectly hard enough for us to refute, no? Fascism operated at that same level of hardness, and is susceptible to the same refutation.
Be still and you may find something solid.
I think it has sufficient ideational roots to be philosophical in nature.
Because its foundation does not lie in human nature, but in a particular set of ideals.
Our nature is everything that is permanent within us.
Presumeably you mean Frank Sheed’s Theology and Sanity http://www.amazon.com/Theology-Sanity-F-J-Sheed/dp/0898704707 Here is the first review on the Amazon page:
Really, Gorb! 22
Posted by Dasein on April 10, 2010, 11:01 AM | # I, for one, find it inpiring, GW. A stable philosophy that enables us to remain who we are, after the last shots have been fired, or votes cast, in anger. Further to Fred’s question, maybe this ‘third philosophy’ could do with a name. Ontological nationalism? I also see it appealing to intellectuals who reject materialism (particularly of the expressed, consumer, kind) or religious supernaturalism, and end up gravitating towards Eastern religions. 23
Posted by Dasein on April 10, 2010, 11:16 AM | # I was going to include those who gravitate towards strident atheism, but, at least in my experience, the intellectual types in this set are the least likely to get behind any form of nationalism.

Posted by Captainchaos on April 11, 2010, 04:41 AM | # A theoretical question I have is can the acquired personality be put to the side sufficiently so that an individual may be and/or sense Self? Or is the personality so rooted and permanent after a certain point that it would forever obscure any attempts at conscious access to what is essential of the phenotype, or Self? If not, for what percentage of the population is capable of being/sensing Self? To what degree does one need to be/sense Self, if indeed it makes sense to speak of that event as a spectrum of lesser or greater being/sensing of Self, to boost one’s inclusive fitness - and by extension one’s EGI? Is it assumed that when one is Self one specifically cognizes one’s then inclination to boost one’s inclusive fitness as the desire to boost said inclusive fitness; and if not, should one optimally be taught to conceive of Self’s natural inclination to boost Self’s inclusive fitness as just that, or would that cognition itself be a bit of the acquired and therefore interfere with the self perception of Self? Hope none of that seems circular, if that is at all avoidable; or maybe that or infinite regress, pick your poison. 28
Posted by Gorboduc on April 11, 2010, 07:00 AM | # Really, GW! Ahem, and ah, harrumph. Your presumption has tripped you up badly. Although I am doubtless the unsurpassed master of the careless and overlooked typo, I took some pains to get this reference correct. I have Sheed’s Theology and Sanity (1947) in my collection, certainly: but I wasn’t referring to it. It is quite obvious that you DO have a copy of Sheed’s T&S;, for the hypothesis that a scientific chap like yourself could implicitly condemn it by the administration of a tut-tutting rebuke “Really, Gorb!” without having mastered the book in detail is obviously untenable. Here’s a little bit from the opening pages S&S;to show that you and he are, at least, interested in the same question: you will not have encountered this passage in your detailed examination of T&S;.
You may find your favourite subject, teleology, touched on here. 29
Posted by Gorboduc on April 11, 2010, 07:04 AM | # Actually, I think that if Sheed were still alive he’d have put in a corrective footnote to the effect that the State is now trying - and very successfully - to make man UNhappier. 30
Posted by Gorboduc on April 11, 2010, 10:20 AM | # Also, GW, I find NOTHING in Sheed’s T&S; that should cause you to distrust Gregorio‘s Amazon-posted review of the book that you reproduce. That little chunk may well turn out to be one of the most truthful passages in the whole MR archive. It’s like the man says: that’s what the book does. Why shouldn’t it?

Posted by Guest Lurker on April 11, 2010, 05:30 PM | # Captainchaos,
I don’t know if we’re talking about the same thing here, but according to eastern philosophy, the acquired personality can definitely be put aside. It is contingent and has accumulated through our senses interfacing with the external stimuli of the world, and so is impermanent. You today are not the same person and personality you were when you were 12. Even what we think is our minds is mostly a memory loop being played over and over. The east even conceives of this “monkey mind” as just another sense, a 6th one after the other five. The goal through meditation is to decondition, detach, and dis-identity oneself from this phenomenal personality and to yoke oneself to that which is truly permanent, the transcendent self. Theoretically, this experience is accessible to anyone. But this leads to the eastern supernaturalism as someone noted above- the Atman is Brahman equation, which some perceive as annihilationism. 32
Posted by PM on April 11, 2010, 06:25 PM | # I was canvassing with the BNP in the target seat of Barking, East London, on Saturday. If anyone is considering coming down to the next ‘day of action’ I can highly recommend it. Given all the abuse we get in the media, you would think that everyone in Britain hates us. This makes the support we got from locals (the real locals) all the more energising and encouraging. Young lads greeting us, cars beeping their horns in support, people coming up to us telling us how much they hated Margaret Hodge and the Labour Party—you got the impression that they really valued us and appreciated our presence there, and the chance to vent their anger. It was a chance to feel part of something, something that had strength, numbers, purpose, momentum—in short, to feel the power (albeit fettered) of the English as a political and a social force. It was great. 33
Posted by Fred Scrooby on April 11, 2010, 10:47 PM | # Remember when Abraham Lincoln met with Negro leaders and used the occasion to tell them point-blank some very unflattering things about their race? You cringed reading it, imagining how it must have made them feel, while wondering what political pressures of the moment forced Lincoln to lambaste them like that. It’s not necessarily easy to formally address with complete frankness the subject of biological race differences before an audience of attentive Negroes. I wouldn’t want to do it, but if called upon I know the approach I would take: humbly summarize the simplest truths of the matter in the most straightforward style possible with perfect honesty. Here are a few brief, intelligently-put, dignified remarks delivered recently by the Derb not as a speaker giving a full speech but as a participant in a panel discussion.

Posted by PM on April 12, 2010, 08:07 PM | # Fred—the article in Occidental very much reflects the feeling I got in Barking. Incidentally, we were followed for over an hour by a hack from the leftie New Statesman magazine. It will be interesting to see if he reports honestly the reaction we were getting from residents. There were some really touching moments, such as the father out in his garden with his children, his face like thunder telling us to get lost (he saw we were canvassing for a politcal party), before his neighbour in the next garden with his children told him we were BNP. The change on his face, from hostility to broad grin and handshakes, was worth the journey alone. The conclusion of the article, that there is a permanent realignment taking place within British politics, is surely true. How could it be any other way? The politicians never tire of telling us how multiculturalism has utterly changed Britain, yet we stagger on with our two pre-Windrush political parties from a time when the deepest divide in our society was economic and class-based. To anyone who has been in a black or Asian area, this now seems completely anachronistic. The idea that every other facet of our nation can be changed beyond recognition and yet our politics somehow remains aloof is absurd. Ethnic, racial and cultural divisions have clearly superceded class interests. The BNP, or parties like us, are the future. I noticed in the comments of the Occidental article the old canard that BNP supporters are just idle working class benefit-junkies who only care that they are being forced to share their unearned dole with immigrants. In fact very few people will put their grievancies in these terms, and even when they do, it is sometimes important to understand that what some people are able to articulate is not always what they are actually feeling. There are rootless, lost young people in England today who have been deliberately denied any knowledge of their culture, heritage or history. They nevertheless have an instinctive unease about the changes they see around them. Without the vocabulary to describe this unease in terms of culture or tribe, they naturally turn to the language of housing waiting-lists and benefits, because this is what they know. Perhaps the person who made these comments was not English. I would hope that any ethnic-nationalist would include in his political armoury a feeling for the peculiarities, idiom and thought processes of his people (the other parties view the English with a mixture of incomprehension and fear). 44

Very true and an important point - people need a defining vocabulary. 45
Posted by Lurker on April 12, 2010, 09:12 PM | # Fred - we can’t write in a name. Any ballot paper like that would be discarded at the count. If enough people wrote in the same name that might create a bit of a stir but would have no legal standing that I’m aware of. 46
Posted by Gorboduc on April 13, 2010, 06:30 AM | # @GW: up above I paid you a little compliment for your devising the Questionnaire, which we should all commit to memory for use in the office, down the pub, or on the doorstep. However, on a small matter of detail (a bit higher above) I felt it was necessary to administer a slight rebuke, the result of your pointing out to me, in an unpalatably “superior” way, that I’d made a mistake, and needed a little bit of help to express myself and sort things out. It was you that was in error, wasn’t it? Is it your unthinking assumption that Christiians are always automatically in the wrong, and the points raised by them needn’t be answered? 47
Posted by Guessedworker on April 13, 2010, 07:36 AM | # My apologies, Gorb. I am not ignoring you at all - just behind with quite a few responses at the moment, both here and to mail. I didn’t know Frank Sheed had published two books with such similar titles. Was “Society” more of a pamphlet than a book because I note that Sheed’s wiki entry does not list it. I am puzzled by Sheed’s apparent emphasis on happiness as an end in itself. He can’t really suppose that is what politics is about, even if a majority of the Founding Fathers thought so. 48
Posted by Gorboduc on April 13, 2010, 09:06 AM | # @GW: Thankyou, squire, you’ve done tha handsome thing. You are a WHITE MAN: but you needn’t trust Wikipedia. Sheed’s book has 225 pages; hardly a pamphlet. Sheed was an Australian, not an American. I know someone’s been posting here about Washington killing Indians before graduating to the pesky British, but I can’t really see how the Founding Fathers come into the matter, any more than the Mayflower bunch or trhe Diet of Worms. Why can’t he have held his particular views on happiness? Why do you make politics, then? is it to make us umhappy? Let the State doi that for you. I suppose people who believe in the fall of man and who see teleology as a method of interpreting the whole of Creation and its history will of necessity ascribe to commonplace words like “happiness” very different meanings from the definitions attached to them by Godless evolutionist materialists. *) Please, I’ve asked you before - you may tell people what you believe they ought to think, but you may NOT keep telling people about what you believe they DO think and why they need a little fatherly hint from you to clarify things for them! Sheed honed his expository skills on the soap-box. He met a LOT more determined, noisy and sometimes organised in-yer-face opposition than you will meet here from any of us paper tigers. *) You might already be aware of the possibility of this disconnectedness: in your recent posting (Mar. 24) about the writings of Sunic you (or he, or the translator) included this amazing bit of sleight-of-hand: talking of pagans he says:
It’s interesting that the “Nordic” pagans used these Latinate terms. Isn’t there a more “volkish” translation? I suppose it could always be argued that “justice” and “honor” ARE virtues and so don’t belong in the same category as “virtue” itself… GKC somewhere has a passage which treats of the notable Pagan virtues, which are Prudence, Justice, Fortitude etc., and which contrasts them with the Christian ones Faith, Hope and Charity, which come from somewhere else…but I suppose they may all turn out to be genetically-determined “behaviours” and therefore ultimately as useless to Sunic as to me… Oh, and VOTE BNP, warts and all! 49

Wow - Griffin really did well in that exchange. 50
Posted by Guessedworker on April 13, 2010, 01:59 PM | # Gorb, I did not mean that Sheed was American, but that the pursuit of happiness as the purpose of all had always seemed a Foundationally American idea, and I was puzzled as to why Sheed should raise it.
The emotional answer is that I love my people. That, perhaps is enough. But the technical answer is that I am working to increase my ethnic genetic interests. And the other answer - the thinky-type one - is that, as someone who is “aware”, I have a duty to increase the quantity of knowledge and thus freedom and thus meaning, by my understanding of that word, in the life and lives of our people. And before you ask why again, because it is good, it is light, it gestures to the right way, and the alternative open to me, which is to retire into my own affairs, would leave unexplored one avenue, at least, by which the forces acting upon us to our collective detriment may be overcome.
Yes, father. But would you mind awfully if I sometimes tell people why they think what they think?
Was he opposed by insane Marxists, finance-capitalists and their streetwalkers, Jewish ethnocentrists and the entire liberal-Christian mainstream, then?
That is a quote from Tom’s new book of old essays. Tom is a southern Slav, not a Nordic, btw. 51
Posted by Gorboduc on April 13, 2010, 04:33 PM | # @GW: quoted by itself, the question “Why do you make politics [?]” does look a bit bald. But I asked it in the context of your apparent rejection of the pursuit of happiness as the true end of politics. I don’t think Sheed gave a cuss what the Founding Fathers thought, although all sorts of scholarly coves in America have recently been examining the survival of early philosophy in America at that time. Your puzzlement would evaporate if you took the trouble (OK, I know you’re busy) to examine the history of Christianity instead of happily papering over this gaping crevasse in your general knowledge with a handful of ready-printed labels proclaiming “Breed out the Faith Gene” or “Christers Out!” and and other examples of indiscriminate sloganizing. Yes, I would mind if you told people why they think what they think. The first reason for my annoyance would be, that you yourself almost certainly don’t know. The second reason would be, that by claiming that knowledge, you attempt, on unfair grounds, to discredit what’s alleged. Yes, you may find all sorts of reasons, emotional, genetic or whatever, for WHY someone is maintaining a point: but that affects not one whit the accuracy or truth of what’s therein alleged. As a result of what I’ve just said, it’s a fairly safe bet that you’ll tell me I’m suffering from the Faith Gene, and that my “behaviour”, which is what my beliefs and statements are thus simply reduced to by you, is an irrelevance, a momentary distraction, or something that requires corrective therapy. YOUR behaviour, of course, inhabits a higher area of reality, and is filed under the Cosmic Verities. Sheed honed his skills on the soap-box: and I mean that quite literally. He and the Catholic Evidence Guild took the message out on the streets, and you can be sure that all the vermin you mention, with the addition of Orangeman and Kensitites, gave it them hot and strong. They had no body-guard of tough skinsheads. I suppose it’s a bit unfair to bring up Sunic at this late date and in this context. But I was struck by the spectacle of a rationalist materialist atheist (yourself) who recently assured me that there was no “magick” in the world, sponsoring Sunic’s lament for that world originally pagan and holy, but now “desacralized” by Christians. Another time, perhaps. 52

GW, could you explain the nature of the distinction you draw between “nationalists” and “nativists”? I’ve seen you refer to this distinction several times but I haven’t grasped what, exactly, you’re getting at with it. Thanks.
