How to let different ethnic groups be who they are
Arrogant blowhards tend to be disliked
in the North but virtually applauded in the South, which was more
obvious before Western culture became motley and decadent. Think of
the Southern Italian preening himself with his shirt open to the
navel, or the African with his gold chains and gold teeth. Then
contrast that with the buttoned-up Brits, the nice-nice
Scandinavians, or the strong group-behavior of North Asians. The cold
north required more altruistic group-orientation than the warm south in order to survive, the south could get away with more individual
preening. There is not a superior/inferior element in this, these
behaviors are simply due to the evolution of different survival traits.
But these and other differences tend to
clash in multicultural societies. You get such things as the young
white man awkwardly making gang signs as he ludicrously tries to copy black rappers, which we
now often see in our gaudy award-show circuses. It is, or would be,
much healthier and more realistic to let distinctly different ethnic
groups be who they are and act the way they want to act living within
distinctive ethnostates. Then there could be realistic "civil
rights" without so many disruptive clashes and bitter
competitions. The constitutional separation of powers and states could move in this direction, and federalism could hawkishly protect the
whole. I don't think we can have long-term social harmony without
this return to sanity.
Look to who benefits from the motley circus we have become. Today the Evil Big Media and corrupt politicians are running wild at our new President Trump who is merely trying to keep Islamic terrorists out of the country! So we have a long road ahead with much hard rain to fall.

The Heart or the Head?
Politics is a complicated maze of
instincts and reason, and Hollywood actors---who are looking more
and more like arrested-development teenagers---claim to be speaking
from the heart not the head. But speaking from
the heart usually means speaking from emotions and instincts that are primarily genetically based (although reason is too), and modern liberals don't like to
acknowledge anything as being genetically based.
This becomes further complicated when
we see that there are gender differences in the instincts and
emotions, with women being genetically more nurturing and men more
territorial. This can then be reflected in politics where the left
tends to be more nurturing and the right territorial.
The philosopher Schopenhauer in his
contrary way thought women were intellectual and men emotional, but
he thought that the emotional Will was the inner being and intellect
was secondary.
Political "isms" are usually
the creation of the head more than the heart. My affirmation of an
ethnopluralism of ethnostates is based on the idea that an ethnopluralism of ethnostates is more deeply and genetically
based. Human nature remains kin-centered and ethnocentric, with
group-selection as the primary unit of selection, which naturally
calls for ethnostates.
I probably
lean more toward male-based, external, territorial politics and
female-based, nurturing, internal politics. I wouldn't want to try to take the vote away from women (or Hollywood), and
I don't believe in tyrannically fascism, left or right. And I am not anti-reason since I strongly affirm science. So this is a subject difficult to
nail down.

Why don't conservatives affirm the deep-conservatism of an ethnopluralism of ethnostates?
According to "Modern Age,"
the essential conservative journal, conservatism reforms what is bent
or broken in tradition while preserving what is valuable in
tradition. Conservatism is against one-size-fits-all ideologies and
for independent centers of power and local control.
I believe conservatism needs to deepen
itself to include the reform of an ethnopluralism of ethnostates,
which harmonizes with real traditions derived from real human nature,
which remains largely kin-centered and ethnocentric.
Conservatism is against all ideologies of universalism and points out
the contradiction of postmodernism in its belief that all ideas and
values are relative, with the exception of the idea just stated. But
then conservatism goes on to affirm the universalism of Christianity.
This universalism of
Christianity---which promotes the idea that we are all equal under
God---is really not much concerned with human differences but is
concerned with experiencing the universal Father Within, and it is
this which seems to be behind conservatives ignoring or rejecting an
ethnopluralism of ethnostates.
An ethnopluralism of ethnostates is a
reform within the conservative tradition, which affirms independent
centers of power and local control based on real human nature, which
remains largely kin-centered and ethnocentric and not universally the
same.
Ethnic groups naturally compete, since
group-selection remains the primary unit of human selection, as it
has been throughout human history. Traditional conservatism needs to
see how real human nature can naturally be more harmonious in
ethnostates.
The constitutional separation of powers
and states in America could conservatively accommodate regions and states gradually
moving toward being the ethnostates they tend to be anyway, with
perhaps only a few amendments to the constitution.
Whatever peace is humanly possible
becomes more possible when independent centers of power and local
control are based on real human nature, which remains largely
kin-centered and ethnocentric, leading instinctively and logically toward an
ethnopluralism of ethnostates.

Religion is not lost when the traditional non-material and spiritual are lost
Sex and the genitals are not the
deepest focus of the "instincts," which Freud more or less
believed. The activation of material life by the material Spirit-Will
within life, within every cell of the body, is the focus of the
instincts. The instincts have a purpose beyond human abstract
definitions of ends and purposes and that purpose is to evolve materially to
supermaterial (not supernatural) Godhood. This is what grounds real religion,
long-term religion, deeper than anything else.
"Action follows motivation" but things are not working on
their own with only short term ends. The Spirit-Will is the dominate
activation, the intellect is secondary...And it is all empirical, if
we can find it.

Following the Trump/Netanyahu press conference, forget about peace in the middle-east, or elsewhere
We now officially know how Trump will stand with Israel
and the Jews. Such total one-sidedness for Israel means negotiating by way of tyranny, which obviously will be rejected. One day a Western leader will stand up for America, although not in the unjust way Netanyahu and Trump stand for Israel. Will the corrupt Media continue to hate Trump?
Why and how to replace the gross Empire and return to a Constitutional Republic
The dangerous fantasies of cultural
Marxism and neoconservatism led to the creation of the gross American
empire and away from the Constitutional Republic of our Founders.
This was largely due to blocking or distorting our understanding of
real human nature.
When human nature is understood as
being largely grounded in the biological origin of much of social and
cultural behavior, as the evolutionary sciences have taught us, and
when human nature is understood as remaining very much kin-centered
and ethnocentric, then the constitutional separation of powers and
states harmonizes very well with human nature.
The conservative "moral
imagination" of the great Russell Kirk, alas, was grounded in
a non-materialism and spiritualism which distorted human nature and
morality almost as effectively as the fantasies of cultural Marxism
and neoconservatism, which led to the gross Empire.
But conservativism, at least deep
conservatism, does not have to lose God, religion, morality or the
moral imagination when Godhood and morality are understood as
attained through the evolution of material life to
supermaterial Godhood. This sacred evolution relates well with the
constitutional separation of powers and states because human nature
remains as it has always been, kin-centered and ethnocentric, as evolution proceeds naturally.
The next stage in dismantling the gross
empire is to see the constitutional separation of powers and states as leading to an
ethnopluralism of ethnostates, still within the constitution as
envisioned by the Founders, perhaps with only a few amendments. Then
human nature, religion, culture, and government can be in realistic harmony over
the long-term.

Where are we in the historical cycle of different structures of government?
That tide in the affairs of men which
Shakespeare's Brutus talked about could be seen in a recent graph by
D. Stiegman in the "Small Wars Journal," which shows
Autocracy followed by a Republic, then Democracy, Anarchy, and back
to Autocracy again.
Where are we? It's complicated. The
people have become very discontented with their Representatives and
so the Democracy stage has been transforming the traditional
Republic. But we also could be on the edge of the next stage of
Anarchy, with increasing clashes between strong groups, ethnic and
otherwise. But there is also a hint of Autocracy in the election of President Trump, who has, typical of autocrats, chosen a
cabinet of military people, which is usually what Autocrats do in
trying to restore order out of chaos.
Do I have a preference? I think of myself as a deep
conservative and an American patriot. I want to reside in an American
Republic, but one which brings the constitutional separation of
powers and states forward to an ethnopluralism of ethnostates, in
line with real human nature, which remains very much kin-centered,
ethnocentric, and even xenophobic. If a few amendments to the
Constitution can help bring this about, so be it. That is more or less the structure of government and culture which humans always come back to when empires inevitably fall.

The Grammies and the Suicide of High and Low Western Culture
When you think about the heritage of
Western culture, the artistic, philosophic, literary, and legal
themes and traditions, and compare that to the themes of last night's
Grammy awards, with the garbage manners, the endless "party
time" ethos, you really do have to ask: "What the hell
happened to our culture, both high and low, and how can we prevent further suicide?"
There is room for different ethnic
cultures in America, or could be with ethnostates, but today the pop
culture presented is mainly Afrocentric, which is then copied,
usually badly, by all ethnic groups. Country music, when it isn't
trying to copy the screaming divas, is shoved in the corner. What
kind of suicide and cuckoldry of non-African cultures is that?! Pop
music or low culture in the past related to the local ethnic cultures
of the West, and usually had the same values as high Western culture.
Most of the greatest art and culture in
the West was created under monarchies or with wealthy patrons who
insisted on great work. Who are the patrons today? Arrogant
capitalists who know nothing about art and culture but know
everything about making dirty money, or by the patronage of
government grants controlled by politically correct culturally
Marxist morons.

How far can President Trump go in restoring the values of real human nature?
Who
commodified American culture, who put money above cultural health?
The globalist version of capitalism did. The Big Media and the
academic world promoted and individually benefited from this cultural
collapse.
High
and low art were once more or less united with the traditional values
of real human nature, and so was politics. Now the Big Media
promotes soft porn and is moving quickly toward hard porn, and
politics promotes the fantasy of cultural Marxism taught by the corrupt
academic world.
President
Trump has begun to restore values related to real human nature, which
remain as they have always been: kin-centered, gender defined,
age-graded, heterosexual marriage-making, hierarchical, ethnocentric,
even xenophobic, and religious-making, among other things, with
group-selection as the primary unit of successful
selection, followed by individual selection.
If
real human nature is not corrupted it naturally leads toward
traditional art, economic nationalism, and would eventually lead to an
ethnopluralism of ethnostates, in harmony with the real human nature listed above. In America this return to human nature could be grounded in the constitutional
separation of powers and states, which would separate the feuding
ethnic groups in a natural way, and be protected by federalism.
How far can President Trump go in restoring the values of real human nature? Even if he can only move in this direction it is a healthy
thing. But President
Trump is now strongly opposed to the degree that
a new civil war seems possible, thanks to the Big Media, the academic world,
the feminists, and brainwashed modern liberals...This is how fascism raises its
dictatorial and imperialistic head.

Theological materialism is the attempt to affirm the sacred material call to religion
It is a kind of delusion to think that
survival and reproduction, which lead to culture, are each working on
their own with single purposes. Certainly non-human lower forms of
life are not aware of much more than the immediate motives and drives
of their individual lives.
These things, beginning with
survival and reproduction, and moving on to culture in general, are
not the "dupes" of the instincts, as Schopenhauer thought
in his negative way---not unlike the traditional religious
gurus, and Darwin too in a less negative way---but theses instincts are the glories of the deepest activation of life to
evolve toward Godhood in the material and supermaterial world.
We need to survive on earth and out into the cosmos if we are to continue to fulfill this sacred purpose of life. Can we? Knowing our purpose would help...Theological materialism is the attempt to affirm this sacred material call to religion.

Subject, object, and turning religion right side up
The "subject" doesn't have
primacy over the "object" even if the mind is the subject
which sees the object. The object which can be known by the subject
is more powerful than the subject. The object is essentially the
primary activation of the material will or Spirit-Will existing in the whole body, in every cell of the body, which is not
even acknowledged by modern or postmodern thinkers---other than Freud and his
unconscious, who learned much from Schopenhauer and Nietzsche.
The object/Spirit-Will not only
dominates the intellect and consciousness it made possible the
previous evolution of consciousness as the means to aid material life
toward the ultimate goal of evolving to supermaterial Godhood, which
is the zenith of material evolution and is ultimate success in
material survival and reproduction.
Oddly and perversely Schopenhauer, like
Buddha long before him, thought that the Will is a yoke which must be
overcome if the intellect is to attain its fullness, when the
opposite is the reality: it is the Spirit-Will which has the goal of
activating life from within, including the intellect and
consciousness, to evolve toward real Godhood in the material world.
But Schopenhauer's image of the
intellect being a lame sighted man riding on the shoulders of the
blind strong Will remains valid. The subject/self/intellect has a
working relationship with the Spirit-Will whether it knows it or not,
but the subject needs to continue to learn more about the will/object which drives it, the tip of the iceberg intellect needs to know as
much as possible about the much larger Spirit-Will beneath the
surface.
I have called the
blind/object/Spirit-Will a Super-Id, which is not a beast but is the
civilizer of the beast---that is, if the sighted/subject/intellect can
discover the truth and the goals of the Spirit-Will and work along
with it. This activation of life toward Godhood requires turning
religion right side up while not rejecting religion.

Buchanan : "A clipping of the court's wings is long overdue"
...When politicians don black robes and seize powers they do not have, they should be called out for what they are – usurpers and petty tyrants. And if there is a cause upon which the populist right should unite, it is that elected representatives and executives make the laws and rule the nation. Not judges, and not justices.
Indeed, one of the mightiest forces that has birthed the new populism that imperils the establishment is that unelected justices like Warren and Brennan, and their progeny on the bench, have remade our country without the consent of the governed – and with never having been smacked down by Congress or the president.
Consider. Secularist justices de-Christianized our country. They invented new rights for vicious criminals as though criminal justice were a game. They tore our country apart with idiotic busing orders to achieve racial balance in public schools. They turned over centuries of tradition and hundreds of state, local and federal laws to discover that the rights to an abortion and same-sex marriage were there in Madison’s Constitution all along. We just couldn’t see them..."
A hot overdo take-down of Academia
You need to subscribe to read this hot overdo take-down of Academia by Jason Morgan in the Feb.17 Chronicles, but you should subscribe to this paleoconservative magazine anyway. (This essay should have been made free to the public.)
For example: "...Whatever happens, the taxpayers must end all support to these places, and must evict everyone from the buildings and sell the assets off to the highest bidder. The loan guarantees, the grants, the tenure, the endowments, the retirement benefits, UW Chancellor Rebecca Blank’s $95,000-per-year speechwriter—all of it must go. Let the mad and the avaricious peddle their brummagem as they please, but let the taxpayer subsidization of each state’s Kool-Aid Archipelago end today. Delenda est academia. And teachers unions—you’re next..."

The transformation from an immaterial to a material view of Godhood
Ironically science takes the word of
religion in declaring that God or Godhood is invisible and
immaterial, and so science doesn't even examine this subject. But the
Will or Spirit-Will-To-Godhood is material or supermaterial, and
exists in the whole body, in every cell of the body, and science
should be looking for the material Spirit-Will to empirically define
it...I include the word "spirit" along with "will" simply to
conservatively retain religious history while transforming it from an
immaterial to a material view of Godhood, even though it is confusing to both materialists and immaterialists.
The Spirit-Will shows itself in the
activation of the body as a whole, as both Schopenhauer and Nietzsche
said, but Schopenhauer, like Buddha long before him, thought the will
was a "yoke" that needed to be turned off before the mind
could reach its full potential. The Traditionalist School follows
this metaphysical error. Nietzsche saw the will as a goalless
will-to-power. Both were mistaken. The ultimate goal of of the
material Spirit-Will is to activate material life to seek Godhood by
way of material evolution. As Schopenhauer put it, the will is like a
strong blind man carrying on his shoulders a sighted lame man. The
Spirit-Will is the primary element in human beings and the intellect
is secondary.
Materialism is right in seeing man as a
material body but wrong in seeing no sacred goal to materialism. The
goal of materialism is to evolve to Godhood, and so if we seek or
define God as not material and beyond the material process then we
lose Godhood, or lose the attainment of real Godhood in the standard
fantasy of immaterialism.
The idea is to bring the intellect in
contact with the material Spirit-Will, which actives the whole body.
When culture doesn't reflect the evolutionary goals of life----and
most importantly the sacred goals---culture becomes decadent and
degenerate. Life needs to recover the deepest moral decisions and
religious goals which are all material and supermaterial, including Godhood. Art and
politics then follow.

How ethnopluralism can save America and find common ground with conservatism
The constitutional separation of powers
and states in the U. S. can gradually and legally move toward an
ethnopluralism of states, protected by federalism, and not ruled by
Big Government.
We can affirm the benefits of market
capitalism applied to economic nationalism, with tariffs on foreign
products, etc., while not affirming a state-sponsored capitalism, or
the libertarian version of capitalism which limits everything to an
abstract commodity.
This can return culture and politics
to real human nature, which remains traditionally
kin-centered, gender defined, age-graded, heterosexual
marriage-making, hierarchical, ethnocentric, even xenophobic, and
religious-making, among other things, with group-selection as the
primary unit of successful
selection, followed by individual selection.
The philosophy of theological materialism can find common ground with Christianity in the Twofold Path, where the Inward Path to the experience of the God or
Father-within is included but transformed in the Outward Path of
material evolution to real supermaterial Godhood. This can join
religion and science.
This is not effete modern liberalism
with its foolish fantasies of human nature, and this is not the
fascism of the far right or the far left. Radical revolution,
whether left or right, is mistaken. Innovation needs be tied to existing traditions
and customs which evolved over human and even prehuman time.
I know of no better and deeper solution
to the present fall of the West.

Is popular culture now designed by and for chimpanzees?
While watching "Lady Gaga"
attempt to entertain us during half-time at the Superbowl yesterday I
found myself asking: is popular culture now designed by and for
chimpanzees?
Even the few pop stars who seem to be
publicly against the endless sex and drug themes nevertheless strongly
believe that the only moral imperative is to have no moral
imperative, "freedom" for them is always license and a
relativity values---we all must be free even to destroy ourselves.
Are sex and drugs really all there is
to pop culture?
The decayed academic world of the
present generation backs up this decayed philosophy by
preaching moral relativism to their self-hating yet self-absorbed
students. And of course what is now the Evil Media also promotes the
same destruction of healthy values.
Both high and low culture need to get
back in harmony with real human nature, which remains kin-centered,
gender defined, age-graded, heterosexual marriage-making,
hierarchical, ethnocentric, even xenophobic, and religious-making,
with group-selection as the primary unit of selection.
Rational and instinctive culture, high
and low, need to move in this direction---they will anyway, since
degenerate empires always fall.

Truth and lies in the postmodern world
In postmodern philosophy truth is
subject to so-called political necessity. But religion and even
science also often subject truth to their own ends.
It seems that in the activation of
evolving life toward survival and reproductive success lies can lead
to at least short-term success, and even sometimes long-term success.
Because humans can be more cunning than
wise, lies will always be with us. Lies were applied by human beings
long before postmodernism told us that truth is relative to the needs
of politics.
Some groups do seem to lie more than
others, which seems related to being weaker than other groups.
Warrior societies seem less prone to lies than non-warrior societies.
The "Fake News" which
we are increasingly seeing put forward by what I call the Evil Media
is part of this lying dynamic.
In spite of all this, I believe real
truth is grounded in the natural and biological world, and eventually natural
truths rise above artificial lies---and I don't think this is a lie to further my own ends.

The Last Taboo
We can now openly advocate every kind
of perversity, nihilism, insanity, drugs, promiscuity, misogyny,
homosexuality, trans-genderism, etc, etc., but it is taboo to mention
the biological origin of basic social behavior inherent in real human
nature, which naturally leads to ethnocentrism, or the really bad
word, "racism."
Even the boldest conservatives will not
mention this. Some genuinely believe that acknowledging human nature
as being ethnocentric will cause permanent war between ethnic groups,
some believe ethnocentrism goes against the universal structure of
Christian theology, and some remain muzzled because they know that
mentioning this will likely cause them to lose the livelihood on
which their families depend.
The Evil Media and the entertainment
world which promote this destruction of real human nature are backed by the academic world throughout our educational system. Why do
they do this? Multiculturalism promoted within the same living space
naturally does not work, it breaks down societies and identities, and the
broken societies are then more easily exploited. Global financial
capitalism ultimately owns the Evil Media and they gather up the
pieces and the power of the broken national borders which they
created.
The way out of this degeneration is to begin to openly
acknowledge that real human nature is in fact kin-centered, gender
defined, age-graded, heterosexual marriage-making, hierarchical,
ethnocentric, even xenophobic, and religious-making, among other
things, with group-selection as the primary unit of
successful selection, followed by individual selection.
Conservatives and effete liberals in
America may relax in seeing that this does not mean advocating
radical revolution, the constitutional separation of powers and
states which now exists can eventually lead to a sane and natural
ethnopluralism of ethnostates. It is basic common sense and a healthy reality to separate distinctly different people
who naturally compete and even fight with one another to
advance their own groups.
Some form of federalism can protect the whole without taking over the
whole with Big Government.

Life follows purpose first before cause and effect
Nasa has described
life as "a self-sustaining chemical system capable of Darwinian
evolution.'” That is fine as far as it goes, but life follows
purpose first before cause and effect. "A force must know
its destination before it begins its movement." (Ted Chaing).
Religion but also science needs to define the biology and physics of
this force. Life is driven by the internal necessity, or the
sacred activation, of material life evolving toward supermaterial life, the
zenith of material evolution, defined in theological
materialism as real Godhood.

How theological materialism and deep-conservatism relate to the fateful outcome of the Trump movement
"Financial capitalism" has
not been economic nationalism or real conservatism, it has been
imperial capitalism, undeclared wars, unrestricted immigration,
transgender-rights, etc. etc..
Even though we might assume President
Trump would be a financial capitalist based on his past history, he
has been promoting economic nationalism, which was the base of
historical American success in the first place.
The Evil Media, financial capitalists,
and the Left would have preferred the standard neoconservative---if
they must move to the right---and so they have, together, promoted
another civil war in America against Trump and his proposed
programs.
The future of America, the West, and
deep-conservatism depend on the outcome of this battle.
Deep-conservatism understands that
economic nationalism and "conservatism" go back as far as
to ground philosophy in culture before politics, which goes
against the ground of the Left with its absolute concern with
equality politically ruling everything, but deep-conservatism sees an even deeper
form of conservatism.
Beneath politics and
culture is the biological origin of much of social behavior,
and that includes such things as natural human group-selection, which
then leads to natural forms of ethnocentrism, and these in turn lead
to conservatism.
But deep-conservatism goes even deeper
than the biological origin of ethnocentrism. Deep-conservatism moves
even beneath the science of evolution and grounds itself in the
teleological goal of material life evolving to supermaterial Godhood.
The principal that rules all other
principles in theological materialism is the evolution of material
life toward supermaterial Godhood.
This is how deep-conservatism,
which conservatively retains the past while transforming it, relates
to the fateful outcome of the present-day Trump movement.

The arrogance, presumption, and chutzpah of the Chimeras of modern liberalism are an ugly thing to behold
The civil war in America which the Evil
Media is now openly promoting against the healthy protective measures
of President Trump is the latest attempt to force the monstrous
Chimeras of modern liberalism on our people.
The Chimera in Greek myth was a
fire-breathing monster with a lion's head, a goat's body, and a
serpent's tail. In biology, as the dictionary says, this would be an
organism containing a mixture of genetically different tissues,
formed by processes such as fusion of early embryos, grafting, or
mutation.
Is there anything worse to behold than
the modern Chimera we have been increasingly witnessing of a white pop
entertainer from the northern suburbs trying to imitate a black
inner city southern accent while awkwardly displaying gang signs?
Almost as bad a thing to behold is a black from the inner city trying
to imitate a white suburban English professor by exaggerating every
round word pronounced. This is what we have done to our people in the
vain attempt to melt everyone together into a melting pot which does
not melt.
The arrogance, presumption and chutzpah
of these Chimeras of modern liberalism or cultural Marxism are an ugly
thing to behold, which are being forced on a brainwashed people who
tend to be self-effacing and altruistic, even to the extreme degree
of the Swedish people inviting massive numbers of foreign
refugees into their county who are now preceding to destroy
Sweden.
The most humane, sane, and practical
thing to do is to allow the natural development of an ethnopluralism
of ethnostates where people can be who they are. States and regions
could be established legally in the United States due to our
constitutional separation of powers and states, but it may require a
few constitutional amendments. Distinctly different people simply do
not assimilate or melt other than on the fringes where monstrous
Chimeras appear.

The Media is now the Evil Media
Evil is defined as intending to harm,
malevolent, morally corrupt. I will now call the Big Media the Evil
Media, which has gone to war with President Trump. Local Media has
followed.
The Evil Media branch in Hollywood is full of popular freaks who do not
realize they are freaks.
Freedom of the press has become license
to destroy the West.
The Evil Media is consciously---or stupidly unconsciously---promoting civil war, or racial war.
I have considered myself hip to the
Media, but even I am stunned.
Signs of the bi-polar world forming
Based on the seven countries banned
from sending refugees to the U.S., at least temporarily, which
includes Shiite Iran and Syria, and does not include Saudi Arabia or
Egypt, it looks like we may have the bi-polar world I recently speculated
about, with Russia, Iran, (Syria), China etc. on the Eastern block,
and the U.S., Israel, and Sunni Arab states etc. on the Western block.
If Putin is not already awakened to this bi-polar world he
will be now.
Is not this the world that Kissinger
tried to prevent by trying to destabilize any Eastern block? It may
be too late for the better plan presented by Srdja Trifkovic in
"Chronicles,"
January 2017... "Now is the time to effect a pan-European
entente that embraces the whole of the Northern Hemisphere, from the
British Isles to Vladivostok to the Americas. Trump has an
historic opportunity to pave the way for a genuine Northern Alliance
of Russia, Europe, and the United States, as all three are facing
similar existential demographic and ideological (primarily jihadist)
threats in the decades ahead. In an uncertain and ever more
brutal world, the Northerners must find a way of banding together,
lest they be defeated separately"...

Can't we even control our borders to keep out people who wish to destroy us?!
People and the cultures they create are
certainly not all the same. As the ethnic groups change the country
changes. But this common sense is blocked by the propaganda of the
academic world and the Big Media.
President Trump is now having trouble
even stopping---at least for a time---immigration from countries
which breed terrorists who hate America. He is blocked in his efforts
by the propaganda of the academic world and the Big Media who support
the creation of a nation of distinctly different ethnic groups and
religions who naturally do not get along together.
Most college educated people believe
they have risen above irrational ethnocentrism and tribalism, but
that is like saying they have risen above human nature, which
remains, kin-centered, gender defined, age-graded, heterosexual
marriage-making, hierarchical, ethnocentric, even xenophobic, among
other traditional things, with group-selection as the primary unit of
successful selection,
followed by individual selection.
These are the things that define us as
human. The ground of patriotism comes from people voting according to
who they are and where they live, which is why decentralization is
now the political action most needed in a nation increasingly divided
by distinctly different people with distinctly different agendas.
I believe the only sane political
structure in our crowded world eventually leads to an ethnopluralism
of ethnostates, which is based in real human nature. I say again, the ground of
patriotism comes from people voting according to who they are and
where they live, and this requires decentralization. How far we are
now from this sanity if we can't even control our borders to keep out
people who wish to destroy us.
Is President Trump just in time to try
to save the nation from decline and fall, or is he the last desperate
losing effort of a nation hopelessly divided by our past stupid,
suicidal immigration policies?

The difference between the Alt-right and the General-right
The General-right---think of Fox
News---spends a lot of time denying and attacking racism, whereas the
Alt-right often acknowledges that real human nature tends
to be racist.
The problem with these positions is
that the General-right denies the ethnocentric nature of real human
nature, and the Alt-right tends to be supremacist about their own
ethnic group while denying or denigrating all other ethnic groups.
The way out of this is to affirm an
ethnopluralism of ethnostates, where some sort of federalism can
protect independent ethnostates and assure the freedom of our natural
ethnocentric and group-selecting human nature. This balanced structure
could even be accommodated by the separation of powers and states in
the U.S. Constitution, with perhaps a few amendments.
As to the left, the General-left or the
Alt-left, they live in a fictional la la land where people are
considered all the same and equal throughout the world---although minorities
are preferred---and they think the world would be peaceful and always happy
if not for the evil right putting up borders and boundaries.

Do we owe our European brothers a thank you for martyring themselves?
It made me proud to be an American today watching the swearing-in ceremony
for
our new Defense Secretary Mattis, and then the signing of executive
orders to begin protecting our national borders from massive
immigration, as well as the order to rebuild our military---but not to be used for going abroad in search of monsters.
Do
we owe our European brothers a thank you for martyring themselves to
open borders, etc, showing America what not to do? We will
have enough trouble dealing with almost half the country who are like
brainwashed zombies marching around objecting to saving their own country and their
own lives.
All reality is material or supermaterial including Godhood
All the organs of the body developed
not only to propagate life but to evolve toward the zenith of
material evolution, which is Godhood, as described in theological materialism.
The trouble started when the oldest pagans thought the dream world was real but not material, which led to the downgrading of materialism, and eventually led to the blocking of material drives by religious mystics seeking to experience a non-material God.
The "spirit," "soul," consciousness, and mind are all material. Godhood is defined as the zenith of spirit, soul, consciousness, mind, and the zenith of material evolution.
The subject is as material as the
object, the subject is only the knowing part of the object, and both
are material. But the object ranks higher than the subject which defines it, not the other way around, although they are always together and connected.
If there is an "essence" it
is the activation within life of the material
Spirit-Will or Will-Spirit, which must deal with the material
world it finds itself living within, as it seeks to activate material
life, and itself within life, to evolve toward Godhood.
There really are no dualities, but there are levels of material evolution culminating in Godhood. This should be good news for joining science and religion.

Is the thing lost without the principle of the thing?
People and things exist whether they are defined or not
Even good thinkers have assumed that the thing is lost without the principle of the thing, almost as a given. But the principle
is only the definition of the thing, the thing exists whether the
principle is defined or not.
Godhood works that way too, and
virtually everyone defines God as a spiritual principle, definition,
or experience, and not as a material or supermaterial Thing or Things.
I believe a conservatism or tradition
that accepts Godhood---which has been dying at least since the Enlightenment---can prevail only if Godhood is transformed from a non-material
principle to an actual material or supermaterial thing-in-itself, or
highly evolved object or objects.
The Twofold Path in theological materialism retains the old non-material principle or experience of
God or the Father in the Inward Path, while affirming and
transforming the Inward Path in the Outward Path of material
evolution toward the supermaterial object, or objects, of real Godhood.
Conservative founders of both religions
and secular governments knew that laws and principles need to be
simple, few and constant, and need to be retained while being
transformed in the long march through human institutions.
Life, religion, culture need not fade away on earth, as they have been doing. And we can eventually move out into the cosmos as we evolve toward Godhood. A new sacred Mass can be written
affirming the Twofold Path.

Nature is in a constant state of flux: why?
There is always rising and falling,
devolution and evolution: why? This flux goes on not only on earth
but across the cosmos: why?
Religion and philosophy have at bottom
been objectless, full of empty spiritualism or empty definitions of
nothing, since their religious God, their philosophical Being, is not
material and is not of this world. Well then, of which world?
God need not be lost. Godhood needs to
be rescued from those who define God as objectless and non-material.
All is grounded in real objects, even dreams and fantasies. It is a
material force which seeks supermaterial Godhood by way of supremely
successful survival and reproduction.
Why this hatred of the material? Why
this deprivation of humanity and existence? It must be connected to
the will to power of those who seek to block materialism with
spiritualism, which is a very material thing to do.
Life follows purpose first before
cause and effect. "A force must know its destination before it
begins its movement." (Ted Chaing). Religion but also science
needs to define the biology and physics of this force.
It is a fight to the death for real
life but it is not merely defined as a war of all against all, it is
really the evolution of all life toward Godhood. For example, a way can be found
to reconcile irreconcilable differences between naturally competing
human groups, such as an ethnopluralism of ethnostates protected by a
light federalism.
We are driven by internal necessity but
it is not the necessity to block material life so as to see God. Life
is driven by the internal necessity of material life evolving toward
supermaterial life, defined in theological materialism as real Godhood.

To perceive/know reality
In defining reality this would mean
capturing, at the same time, emotion/intuition/art/religion along
with reason/empiricalism/science. The idea is that these things alone do not capture
reality as well as they do as combined or synthesized perceptions.
I am not here talking about looking
through one person's unique eyes, I am looking for a "reality"
that combines inward and outward human life in general, a reality
that could find a general balance and resolve tensions between
perceptions in the inward and outward lives we lead. The hope would
be that the wiser and healthier we are the better we are at seeing
and balancing perceptions of actual reality.
In combining the inward and outward
perceptions we are applying the essential inward activating drives of
life (after first recognizing them) combined with the
natural outside environment and evolution, as described in
theological materialism. This can lead to another kind of psychology, or
evolutionary
therapy, as well as another kind of
religion/science.
As I have written here before, I am
not merely looking for the opposite of the ego, the contrary elements
of our psyche, because a Jungian androgynous balance is not the goal.
The great goal of the activating material/biological Spirit-Will,
which I have also called the Super-Id, is the goal that lies beyond
us, beyond even human consciousness, at the zenith of material evolution to Godhood. Whatever
parts of our psyche that would seem opposed to the natural direction of the
Spirit-Will-to-Godhood need to be understood, synthesized, and
balanced with natural outside evolution.

Continue to Go After the Big Media President Trump!
Even conservatives are upset because
they say president Trump is spending too much time criticizing the
Big Media, they want him to concentrate on "more important
things." I strongly disagree. The Big Media are probably more
responsible for the decline and decadence of the West than
government, the business world, the academic world, or religion. That
is power! So President Trump, please continue to go after the Big
Media. If you can find legal ways to curb their nefarious power than
do it! Otherwise they will make you move the way they want you to, or destroy you and your plans.
Ask what is a thing for
James Wilson described the Thomistic
precept which is contrary to postmodernism, that life finds the shape
or the form suitable to it. What is good seeks to become actual,
seeks to become the limit of its life form. That is very good
thinking, but I would say the limiting feature to life is the natural
world of evolution. And the goal of evolution is not a non-material
God, which would be saying that the goal of life is non-life. Real
Godhood is attained through material evolution to supermaterial
Godhood. The highest good is not non-life but super-life. And there
is no limit to material evolution.
Post-modernism sees no goal, no telos
in life other than an amoral power drive without a goal.
Post-modernism sees no fixed truths, and sees nothing but endless
freedom without any moral or material limits. We are condemned to
freedom one arrogant philosopher said. Theological materialism sees things otherwise.
I believe we have to ask what is a
thing to know what can be known about a thing. Life is for
natural evolution toward Godhood and is limited by the natural world
we are born into. The central purpose of life is to
evolve toward the highest success in being represented in the world
of survival and reproduction, which could be called eternal
representation, or Godhood. Whether life attains Godhood or not, this
is the central definition of the force of life itself. This sacred
purpose within life must work along with the exigencies and
ups and downs of natural evolution...And there is no end or beginning
to this evolutionary purpose, as difficult as this is for us to accept.

On the women marchers against President Trump in the decadent liberal cities
The women marchers may not need Aretha
Franklin to tell them how to spell R.E.S P. E.C.T., but if they don't
want to be called over-emotional brainwashed fools they do need
knowledge of sociobiology---the biological origin of much of our
social behavior.
Knowledge of real human nature has been
successfully blocked by the culturally Marxist academic world and by
the decadent Big Media since at least the 1960's, so not only are
these marchers ignorant of sociobiology and real human nature, their
ponytail-wearing fathers were too. Many of these women even brought
their daughters to the march brainwashing another generation of
women.
If a woman can remain a culturally
Marxist feminist after absorbing such works as "Human Nature,"
or "The Social Conquest of Earth," by Edward Wilson, or if
that is too difficult then some shorter explanation of sociobiology
as in Wikipedia, then she really is a brainwashed
fool.
Trump is far from perfect but many of his political ideas reflect and affirm real human nature and real human beings.

Now we will have father-government rather than mother-government
The mommy democrat/liberals who want to
nurture everyone to death have been bested by daddy
republican/populists who want people to nurture themselves. Both
president Clinton and Obama were raised in mommy-led households
without a father and they absorbed the psychology of nurturing at
their mother's knee----and perhaps also a little bias against manly
things in general.
We will see how many of the manly goals
of president Trump can be attained. I wish President Trump could do
something Big about curbing the power and influence of the Big Media,
while still respecting freedom of the press. Propaganda-sickened Americans need a little protection
from the man-hating she-tiger---mommy is not too happy about daddy taking back the TV remote.
But seriously, we don't want this battling of the sexes, we need mommy and daddy working together offering their distinctively different, biologically-based, ways to live in the world.

What is the natural state of nature?
If there is "purity" or
"order" in a pre-civilized state of nature it would
probably contain an absence of any human attempt to go against the
natural order with cultural or political schemes which only man seems
capable of attempting.
There is not a lack of conflict or
distress in the pre-civilized or civilized natural order, which has
been suggested by people like Rousseau and Marx, but what there is
is evolution taking place and a natural selection of living things in
always changing environments and biology.
Schopenhauer and Nietzsche came closer
to the natural order in imagining a world of will and power, but Darwin
was even closer to defining the natural order in both the
pre-civilized and civilized states. But Darwinism was not a religious
philosophy even as it was evolutionary science at its best.
Life follows purpose first before cause
and effect. "A force must
know its destination before it begins its movement." (Ted Chaing) Science
must define the biology and physics of this force.
I believe the natural order most
essentially contains the evolution of material life toward
supermaterial Godhood, with many starts and stops along the way. And
once attained, Godhood continues evolving, with no ending and no
beginning.
That is the natural state of nature which our civilizations and our cultures and
political structures need to find closer harmony with, as seen in
theological materialism.

Turning around this big falling mess of an American empire
Americans have been "educated"
by a Marxist department of education, and by the narcissistic,
hedonistic, hook-up culture of the Big Media. Hollywood has found a
way to make big money and trash traditionalism at the same time.
Students of the 1980's became the
professors and leaders of America. But the "culture wars" of
the 1980's were really genetic wars. A largely Northern European and
WASP leadership, which was more or less conservative, was replaced by
non-Northern European "progressives" who were really
cultural Marxists.
Blacks were given billions of dollars
of help to advance themselves and advance "equality" but
instead they sought superiority, which is actually natural given that
human nature remains very much group-centered and ethnocentric.
We cannot count on the Media or the
academic world to turn around this big falling mess of an American
Empire, and we can't count on much help from a brainwashed people, even though there is a populist core of good instincts. Nevertheless, conservative and not radical means to save the West is the
preference.
This probably means another slow march
through the institutions, along with a return to the constitutional
separation of powers and states, eventually leading to the long-term
solution of an ethnopluralism of ethnostates, in line with real human
nature.

How theological materialism discontinues the traditional theological downgrading of life in general and women in particular
There is almost a hatred of women
throughout traditional asceticism in seeking the inward God or Father
Within by way of blocking material desires, especially the
reproductive drives. Mother nature is lost touch with and
materialism is attacked because sexuality needs to be controlled or
blocked in order to have the upper peak experience of the God Within. Religious values grew primarily out of this ascetic valuation.
Theological materialism brings back
respect for materialism, for women, and for reproduction, since we
evolve to real Godhood by way of ongoing material
reproduction. Modern genetic engineering needs to be considered part of this religious development of evolution. Materialism is something to affirm, upward
evolution is considered a high virtue and a sacred value because it is the
basic means of attaining real Godhood. The ascetic experience of the
inward God can be retained but is seen as a symbolic experience of
what Godhood may be like when we evolve to real Godhood in the
material world.
The answer to the hatred of the material world is not to radically declare,
as Nietzsche did, that God is dead. Materialism is apotheosized in
theological materialism by the sacred evolution of life to
supermaterial Godhood. Emotions return, life returns, and religious
philosophy goes back to nature itself as it should do---and modern science can be included.

Can Trump transform from hyper-individualism to group-orientation?
The biggest psychological and
philosophical change that Donald Trump has to personally make is from
hyper-individualism to group-orientation. Sociobiology has been
helping to reveal the biological origin of much of social behavior,
and group-selection remains the main unit of successful survival and
reproduction, as it has always been, and individualism, though
creatively important, is successful only in the short term.
Trump's "group" is basically
"America First" and "economic nationalism," and
if Trump can actually transform his hyper-individualistic,
free-enterprising, deal-making personality into being more
group-orientated (not merely his nuclear family) then his constant
self-centered Tweets which are getting him in so much trouble will
recede. Can Trump make this change at his age? Perhaps the office
itself will naturally help him.

The Middle East and the favorite daughter
Given that real human nature remains
ethnocentric, with group-selection as the main unit of selection, the
most natural and rational political configuration is an
ethnopluralism of ethnostates. This means that the state of Israel
has a right to exist for the Jewish people, but this also means the
same for the Palestinian people. This also suggests that Israel has to
stop its expansionism, even if it has a religious idea to do so. Islam also has a religious idea to expand.
People create ideas first, ideas don't
create people, and the ethos of a person and their environmental
circumstances relate to the ideas they propose. You have to admire
the courage of Jared
Kushner, Donald
Trump's son in law, in taking on the Middle Eastern file for Trump
where so many diplomats have fallen. Can we assume some sort of
natural competition (even if underground) between Trump and Kushner
for the admiration of Trump's daughter? Chutzpah has conquered
prudence in the Middle East, will it conquer again, or is Kushner headed for
a fall?
If Kushner succeeds, if the expansion
of Israel continues, and if the entire world can't stop them, then it
seems to me that the world will have to take another look at those
conspiracy theorists.

A Vital Idea: Purpose Before Cause and Effect
George McCartney writes about Pierre De
Fermat (Chronicles, Jan 2017), a 17th century mathematician who
speculated that life follows purpose first before cause
and effect. This is a vital insight which is expanded in theological materialism.
The central purpose of life is to
evolve toward the highest success in being represented in the world
of survival and reproduction, which could be called eternal
representation, or Godhood. Whether life attains Godhood or not, this
is the central definition of the force of life itself.
This sacred purpose within life must
work along with the exigencies and ups and downs of natural
evolution. And there is no end or beginning to this purpose, as difficult as this is for us to accept.
Ted Chaing writes: " A force must
know its destination before it begins its movement." Science
must define the biology and physics of this force, which I have
called the Will-Spirit or Spirit-Will-to-Godhood. Then science could actually join religion.

What is the next great sacred mythic theme for the next great civilization?
I believe the next great sacred mythic
theme for the next great civilization is the evolution of material
life to supermaterial Godhood which will require the cooperation of
a long-term culture and civilization.
This is the material/supermaterial
Godhood of material life and evolution, this is not the spiritual
non-material idea or ascetic experience of God. That first
gnostic/religious glimpse of God can be retained but transformed in
theological materialism. A great art and great culture, a great total
civilization can rise out of this religious/scientific, sacred,
mythic worldview, worthy of man and future man. The great Christian and scientific
Western ethos can be synthesized with the sacred goal of life
evolving in the material world on earth and out in to the cosmos
toward supermaterial Godhood.
This sacred materialism is a world
theme but it is also a deeply Western theme, and the defense of the
West remains a principle concern. The East, led by Russia, has for
the present, sunk back into the Traditionalist School which basically
hates materialism, aggressively hates the West, hates science, but nevertheless seeks another form of orthodox imperialism. That is not a healthy
theme for future man or future civilization, and it will not bring us
to real Godhood.

Transforming the negative/positive of traditional religion
"Emptiness" or sunyatu and
Nirvana of Buddhism, and the Father Within and Heaven of Jesus are
similar in being a negative/positive sort of hedonism. We can feel
the bliss of emptiness leading to Nirvana and the Father Within by
stopping or blocking the material drives which cause the pain (and
pleasure) of life, as we were instructed to do by both Buddha and
Jesus. The pleasure and even bliss that can come from this severe
ascetic discipline is felt because the material drives are blocked or
stopped from which pain can come from. This is not a non-material
experience. It is not God we are feeling but a symbolic experience
of Godhood.
The next stage in religious development
is to take that bliss we can feel from the Inward Path of ascetic
practice and apply it in the Outward Path of material evolution to
supermaterial Godhood. That is the Twofold Path of theological materialism, where traditional religion is retained but transformed.
We are in the world and of the world, and the sacred task is to find
a way to evolve in the material world to real
supermaterial Godhood. That is where life wants to go. That is the
drive within life itself which works along with the ups and downs of
natural evolution---and we can aid in that sacred biological and
cultural goal.

We don't need Meryl Streep or Hollywood, they damage us
Meryl
Streep
is a good actress, although becoming a little mechanical (the eyes
don't lie), but like most of her fellow actors she is a political
idiot, as seen last night at the Golden Globe awards when the grande
dame lectured against the evils of Donald Trump,
football and the martial arts. We aren't quite a matriarchy yet, and
we are not fully Marxist, so there may be a chance to take the power
way from Hollywood by simply boycotting their films. Or maybe a few
of Trump's conservative billionaire friends could open up a
conservative film industry? We don't need Meryl
Streep
or Hollywood, they damage us.

Will Trump and his advisers follow Trifkovic's realist entente embracing the whole of the Northern Hemisphere?
Srdja Trifkovic on "Dismantling
the Empire," from "Chronicles," January 2017
..."In practice, the first task is to
improve relations with Russia—which is essential—and to establish
a workable modus vivendi with China, which is highly
desirable. Outreach to Russia is vital to the definitive
settlement of the European civil war that erupted in 1914, continued
in 1939, and resulted in the frozen conflict called the Cold War.
Now is the time to effect a pan-European entente that embraces the
whole of the Northern Hemisphere, from the British Isles to
Vladivostok to the Americas. Trump has an historic opportunity
to pave the way for a genuine Northern Alliance of Russia, Europe,
and the United States, as all three are facing similar existential
demographic and ideological (primarily jihadist) threats in the
decades ahead. In an uncertain and ever more brutal world, the
Northerners must find a way of banding together, lest they be
defeated separately...
...It is to be hoped that Trump will
strike a bargain with Russia on Syria. There must be no more
support for radical Islamic terrorists, whatever their “moderate”
disguise. This will necessitate some frank discussions with our
“allies” in Riyadh and Doha, in which they are told in no
uncertain terms that we know their game, and that they must cut off
support to jihadists. America may not overtly cooperate with
Damascus and Baghdad (and implicitly Tehran) to destroy IS/Daesh,
Nusra, Ahrar al-Sham, and the rest of the jihadi monsters,
but Trump’s national-security team should let the Arab boots on the
ground complete the work that is currently under way in Aleppo.
In the months ahead the United States should play mainly a supportive
role: no ground forces, limited air power, and “engagement” only
with the prior agreement of Syria’s and Iraq’s sovereign,
legitimate governments.
...As for NATO—strategically useless and tainted with criminality, as it has been ever since Bill Clinton’s aggression against Yugoslavia in 1999, for the benefit of the KLA—Trump should start with the demand to end the “free-loadism” of its European members. He should disengage from the Baltic and Black seas, drop Russia sanctions, and deal on a neutral basis with Ukraine. Further east, he should ride herd on the Iran nuke deal with Moscow and Beijing, but not reject it. He should keep the Saudis at arm’s length, treating them as the leading state sponsor of terrorism that they are...
...Trump needs to avoid the GOP/neocon apparat like the plague and appoint realists to his administration to make America great again. It is not too tall an order. "
My Comment:
This seems to be a most practical realist path to "Dismantling the Empire." But what if Trump supports Israel and Putin supports Iran? As mentioned here earlier, we could then end up with another bi-polar world, with the U.S., Israel, the Sunni states, and a few Europeans on the Western pole, and Russia, Iran, China and a few European states on the Eastern pole. Will Putin abandon Shi'ite Islam or Trump abandon Israel?

"Nullification is the political movement of the 21st century"
In a very good essay in Chronicles (Jan
2017) Brion McClanahan says that "nullification is the political
movement of the 21st century." We have to move back to the
original federalism, localism, and decentralization of the
Constitution. If 21 states can constitutional nullify national pot
laws they can nullify other overly-centralized laws, and give real
power back to the states.
My concern would be in staying strong
enough as a large territorial nation to defend ourselves against
other large nations or empires, but we can have federalism and a
strong defense when needed. I would
also eventually (and legally) want to take the federalism of states
to its most natural conclusion, which is an ethnopluralism of
ethnostates. Then real human nature, which remains ethnocentric and
group-orientated, even more than individualistic, can truly "think
locally and act locally," as Mclanahan puts it.

A real bridge to "universalism"
An ethnopluralism of ethnostates
provides a real bridge across localities, states, regions, ethnic
groups, races, and classes, without demanding that all people must
be considered the same. This is a better way to think of
"universalism" and more real than other social structures such as cultural
Marxism and political correctness. Most importantly ethnopluralism is more in harmony with real human nature, which
has been affirmed throughout human history as being kin-centered,
gender defined, age-graded, heterosexual marriage-making,
hierarchical, ethnocentric, even xenophobic, and religious-making,
among other things, with group-selection as the primary unit of
successful selection, followed by individual selection.
How to get from the present cultural
Marxism and political correctness to an ethnopluralism of ethnostates
is the challenge. I believe an ethnopluralism of states and regions
could be established legally in the United States due to our
constitutional separation of powers, states and regions. It may
require a few constitutional amendments to legally give more power to
the states, and would not be easy, but it is far preferable to the
radically destructive civil disruptions, or even civil war, which
naturally are now increasing due to natural competition between
ethnic groups, races, and classes. Demanding that all people must be
considered the same does not work. Demanding multiculturalism
within the same living space also has not worked. An ethnopluralism
of ethnostates provides a better way to establish a real bridge to
"universalism."

We hope Trump's future improvisations will be on the theme of America First, but...
If "bullshit" means talking
about what you don't know about (not really lying) when certain
circumstances seem to call for it, as Chilton Williamson pointed out
in a review on the subject of bullshit (Chronicles Jan. 2017), then
Donald Trump's political style is not really bullshitting, he seems
to be using a technique he uses in making business deals, it is more
like jazz improvisations on a theme.
We hope Trump's future improvisations
will be on the theme of America First, but as I mentioned here
before, even though Trump seems to be making buddies with Putin, that
may end up being bullshit on his (and his advisers) eventual theme of
creating another bi-polar world, with the U.S., Israel, the Sunni
states, and a few Europeans on the Western pole, and Russia, Iran,
China and a few European states on the Eastern pole. I don't see
Putin abandoning Shi'ite Islam and I don't see Trump abandoning
Israel.

Contradictions and misunderstandings in Christianity can be resolved in theological materialism
Whether Christianity was influenced by
Vedic monks by way of the Essenes who Jesus studied under with John
the Baptist---which I think is possible---or whether Christianity
was a similar but separate development, the asceticism of Jesus was
much like Buddha's in rejecting material desires and rejecting the material
world for the purpose of experiencing the God or Father Within. This
was gradually contradicted and misunderstood in Christianity
following the martyrdom of Jesus, often by brilliant philosophers who tried to support traditional material life in the face of their non-material founders.
Now if we jump forward to our time we
have seen the abortion of 57 million babies since Roe vs Wade, which
has put the birthrate below the replacement level. Contradictions and misunderstandings can be seen in the materialists taking the position of valuing only the evolution of material
life yet supporting abortions, and non-material-spiritualists ascetically rejecting material life yet rejecting the abortion of life. When
Jesus talked about giving Caesar his financial due it came from a
position of defaming and not caring about material life and not from
an affirmation of material life.
These root contradictions and
misunderstandings which developed in Christianity can be resolved in
theological materialism, where Godhood is understood as evolved to
only in the material world. The old ascetic Inward Path to the God or
Father Within can be retained but transformed in the Outward Path of
material evolution to real supermaterial Godhood.

The Utopian schemes of both the materialistic Left and the spiritualistic Right
The Paleoconservatives like to say that
there are no political solutions to cultural problems, and Marxism
says that there are political solutions to cultural problems. These
differences relate to the grounding of the Right in a non-material
spiritualism and the Left in a complete materialism, with different
ultimate goals. But both the goals of the Left and the Right involve
Utopian solutions to cultural problems: the Right seeks a
non-material Utopian God and the Left seeks a classless Utopian world
of complete equality. Both the Left and Right leave out the sacred
and ultimate goal of the material evolution of life to supermaterial
Godhood, which actually connects or synthesizes the two world views.
People create politics as much as they
create culture, and both politics and culture depend on the natural
traits, the genetic traits, of the different ethnic groups who create
the politics and the culture. Often distinctly different ethnic
groups do not assimilate well with one another due to their natural differences more that their politics,
which is negatively reflected in the civil disruptions of modern
societies. That is, societies have been trying to be multicultural
with distinctively different people living in the same space and told
to all get along according to the Utopian schemes of both the
materialistic Left and the spiritualistic Right.
This all points toward the
political/cultural solution of the ethnopluralism hypothesis, often
written about here. It is a conservative transformation---not
revolution---which will bring about an ethnopluralism of ethnostates,
where different ethnic groups can politically and culturally conduct
themselves the way they want to according to their own natural traits
while living in ethnostates within our Democratic Republic, perhaps
with only a few amendments to the already existing constitutional
separation of powers and states. We need to retain federalism and
balance because we need the geopolitical heft of a large nation to
defend ourselves in the big world. This is a sociopolitical or
political/cultural structure based in a real non-Utopian view of human nature and Godhood.
