This is another great Christian philosophy book which we should read, based upon this book review from the conservative organisation IPA.org, who also love Western civilisation and want to resist its deconstruction by the forces of the Left. The book is Samuel Gregg, Reason, Faith, and the Struggle for Western Civilization (2019), reviewed by Zachery Gorman:
  https://ipa.org.au/ipa-review-articles/beyond-reason

“Gregg’s thesis is that the great genius of the West has been the way it has balanced reason and faith, which he writes “correct each other’s successes” and “enhance each other’s comprehension of truth”. Great enlightenment thinkers such as John Locke and Isaac Newton used rational inquiry to extend our knowledge and improve our world, but their quest was anchored in some fundamental Christian truths about the value of the individual and humanity’s capacity to exercise free will. This same moral anchor proved the difference between the positive change of the American Revolution and the unhinged despotism of the French Revolution.
Gregg argues the real problem facing the West is not predicated on our free institutions or an excess of progress, but the fact that faith has been decoupled from reason to the point where many believe faith is the antithesis of reason. This is largely a product of the 19th century. Nietzsche is obviously singled out for condemnation, though he is not the only culprit identified. Gregg is keen to point out the German philosopher did not end with his famous dismissal of God, but went on to dismiss rational inquiry as a whole. He ended up at a theory of power now seen as a precursor to fascism. The book’s message is clear: the path from dismissing long-held moral truths to despotism is less of a slippery slope than it is a sheer cliff.

     I am forwarding this email for it has an extremely interesting interview between Meryl Dorey of the Australian Vaccination Network and Elizabeth Hart who has gone to the trouble of trying to get answers under the Freedom Of Information Act, about Covid 19 "deaths,"  treatment and justification for the lockdown by our Government.

     The question that we all should ask of our reps in Parliament (along with your own) is, has the virus been isolated and purified and thereby shown to exist. This is as I understand it the first step towards finding the right treatment for all viral infections. Please correct me if I am wrong here. This has never been publicly announced that I am aware of, it has always been a vaccine for all is the only answer even before searching for what the vaccine is to "combat". Please scroll down to the heading "Under The Wire" which is Meryl's weekly chat site to watch the interview. Take particular note of the danger of wearing a mask for any extended length of time. And don't forget the vaxxed bus is going to be touring other states after they can get out of QLD looking for your story of vaccine damage, or for you to speak up for a loved one who cannot speak for themselves. Tragically sometimes parents are locked into situations such that they loose support payments should they speak out. Deliver us from the evil of our Government policies. But remember in praying that God expects us to do our part. "All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing" God will decide when it is curtain call not us. I say that because many become stymied in fear of the ILLUSION of an enemy, deciding it is end times and that there is nothing we can do.

     One of the few gutsy things Trump has done is to go boots and all after Goodyear urging a boycott of the company for its anti-MAGA stance, and boy did the stock market ever notice this:

“An employee at the Goodyear tire company has leaked a slide from a recent “diversity training session” depicting which political slogans are acceptable for company employees to embrace and promote, and which ones are not. And as we have come to expect, the acceptable ones are all far-left in nature. Goodyear’s zero-tolerance policy, the slide indicates, rejects political movements like Blue Lives Matter, All Lives Matter, and “MAGA Attire,” referring of course to President Donald Trump’s Make America Great Again slogan. These and other “Politically Affiliated Slogans or Material” are “unacceptable” at Goodyear, the slide further explains. Political movements that are acceptable at Goodyear, however, include Black Lives Matter, or BLM, along with “Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender Pride (LGBT).” These are somehow exempt from Goodyear’s zero-tolerance policies concerning political slogans and material. “According to @goodyear tires, a MAGA shirt is a zero tolerance hate symbol,” tweeted Mike Cernovich in response to the news. “But Black Lives Matter is allowed,” he added, BLM, as we have reported, being a full-blown religious cult. According to WIBW, the image came from an “employee who took the photo of the slide,” which was “presented at the Topeka (Kansas) plant by an area manager.” The original source of the slide is said to be Goodyear’s corporate office, which is based out of Akron, Ohio. The individual responsible for sharing this slide with the world has chosen to remain anonymous over job concerns. He or she did, however, issue a statement to WIBW that reads: “If someone wants to wear a BLM shirt in here, then cool. I’m not going to get offended about it. But at the same time, if someone’s not going to be able to wear something that is politically based, even in the farthest stretch of the imagination, that’s discriminatory. If we’re talking about equality, then it needs to be equality. If not, it’s discrimination.”

     You Aussies don’t have this problem like we do here in the states, because while you guys were formed as a vast penile, sorry, penal, colony, we were formed to take religious dissents from Europe who wanted the freedom to do what they did. So, we are led to modern Evangelical Christianity, which lives for the apocalypse and the Second Coming, which has a convenient political dimension as well. It is only natural that a universalistic, distorted view of Christianity would support all sorts of woke projects, well-illustrated by this:

“During a June 14 roundtable discussion about racism at Atlanta’s Passion City Church involving Chick-fil-A CEO Dan Cathy, Atlanta megachurch pastor Louie Giglio and black hip-hop musician Lecrae, Cathy stunningly whipped out a brush and began to shine the singer’s sneakers. “I invite folks to put some words to action here,” said Cathy before approaching Lecrae. “And if we need to find somebody that needs to have their shoes shined, we need to just go right on over, and shine their shoes, whether they got tennis shoes on or not — maybe they have sandals on — but it really doesn’t matter.” Cathy then knelt down to shine while Lecrae, appearing stunned, sat still. Although intended as an act of repentance amid the national dialogue regarding racial diversity following the May 25 death of George Floyd in police custody, the 67-year-old CEO’s boneheaded move was flayed on social media. Among the appalled were African-American Republican congressional candidate Errol Webber, who voiced his revulsion on Twitter. “As a black man, I implore white people to stop the insanity,” tweeted Webber, who is opposing incumbent Karen Bass in California’s 37th congressional district.  Just treat me like a person, and I’ll do the same to you.”

“White Americans trying to outcompete each other in the wokelympics have found a new word to blacklist eliminate from the public lexicon over its ties to slavery. According to TMZ, the Houston Association of Realtors (HAR) - which has one black guy in a leadership position - "is no longer using the word "master" to hype bedrooms and bathrooms on its Multiple Listing Service." Going forward, they will be referred to as "primary" bedrooms and bathrooms, avoiding insensitive and awkward encounters which HAR claims has been "raised and considered for several years," according to the report. Houston area realtors are still free to use the 'offending' term, however, as HAR's newfound wokeness is just a suggestion. Given the woke mob's ability to cancel 'offensive' content, concepts and now words, we have a few questions for clarification:

“There has been a spike in farm attacks, according to the South African Police Service (Saps). Saps statistics indicate that there were 80 attacks between January and March 2020 with 48 attacks reported between April and June this year. There were six farm attacks during January and March 2019 and seven between April and June 2019. In response to the rise in farm attacks, Saps and Agri SA have agreed to collaborate with regards to rural safety. Lester Kiewit interviewed Dr Ivan Meyer, MEC for Agriculture at the Western Cape Government. Many people are suffering in rural communities, irrespective of race. Recently in KZN, 30 black farmers were killed. Nobody in the media captured this… People are being murdered [on farms] whether they are black, white, coloured or Indian…

     This is an article which uses metaphors for the modern university that I have used in the past, that of the zombie, the walking dead, so my heart rejoices:

“As colleges attempt to recover from the pandemic and prepare for future semesters, a New York University professor estimates that the next 5-10 years will see one to two thousand schools going out of business. Scott Galloway, professor of marketing at the New York University Leonard N. Stern School of Business told Hari Sreenivasan on PBS’ “Amanpour and Co.” that many colleges are likely to suffer to the point of eventual extinction as a result of the coronavirus. He sets up a selection of tier-two universities as those most likely not to walk away from the shutdown unscathed. During the pandemic, wealthy companies have not struggled to survive. Similarly, he says, “there is no luxury brand like higher education,” and the top names will emerge from coronavirus without difficulty. “Regardless of enrollments in the fall, with endowments of $4 billion or more, Brown and NYU will be fine,” Galloway wrote in a blog post. “However, there are hundreds, if not thousands, of universities with a sodium pentathol cocktail of big tuition and small endowments that will begin their death march this fall.” “You’re gonna see an incredible destruction among companies that have the following factors: a tier-two brand; expensive tuition, and low endowments,” he said on “Amanpour and Co.,” because “there’s going to be demand destruction because more people are gonna take gap years, and you’re going to see increased pressure to lower costs.” Approximating that a thousand to two thousand of the country's 4,500 universities could go out of business in the next 5-10 years, Galloway concludes, “what department stores were to retail, tier-two higher tuition universities are about to become to education and that is they are soon going to become the walking dead.” Another critical issue underlying the financial difficulties families and universities both face is the possibility that the quality of higher education has decreased. Galloway argues that an education in the U.S. is observably unsatisfactory for the amount that it costs, given that if you “walk into a class, it doesn’t look, smell or feel much different than it did 40 years ago, except tuition’s up 1,400 percent,” he said during an interview with Dr. Sanjay Gupta. And the pandemic, according to Galloway, has served to expose the quality of higher education. “Students I think across America along with their families listening in on these Zoom classes are all beginning to wonder what kind of value, or lack thereof, they’re getting for their tuition dollars,” he said.”

“Two large sculptures celebrating mass migration will be unveiled in London next year, the Guardian has revealed. It was announced Monday, on the UK’s second ever ‘Windrush Day’, that works by artists Thomas J Price and Veronica Ryan will be erected in London’s Hackney borough in 2021. Windrush Day commemorates the beginning of the modern mass migration era in Britain in 1948, and was instituted in 2018 after some members of that original generation of post-war migrant arrivals were detained and deported because of government error, causing a significant scandal. The pieces, which include a sculpture of fruit and a nine-foot statue of a Hackney local are “a statement of pride” for members of the so-called Windrush generation and their descendants, according to the Mayor of Hackney, Philip Glanville. The Labour politician said the new works would not be “an answer to the statue conversation” that has emerged with the Black Lives Matter protests, which have seen demonstrators vandalise and tear down sculptures of white figures across the UK. “But I think it’s an early down payment on righting some of that wrong, and a chance to see more diverse people represented in a public realm,” he said in remarks reported by the Guardian.”

     It is the typical piece we see nowadays, by the predictable types who write this stuff. Is human civilisation doomed because people are “idiots”? A good question, but the spin given to this question by writer Umair Haque is that the Anglo nations, and parts of Eastern Europe with nationalist governments are idiots, who face destruction because only globalism, cosmopolitanism, mass migration, and all the rest of the liberal bs can save humanity.
  https://eand.co/america-and-the-axis-of-idiots-25a86ed4a421

     Really? Let’s just take climate change and look at it from his Left perspective. Can the reader bear with me on this hypothetical exercise? Well, according to his world view, endorsed by the sacred IPCC, we now have ten years, no nine, to avert a climate catastrophe. He mentions that Western Europe has reduced carbon emissions, but it accepted by scientists from his side, that this mammoth effort is too little to achieve what is required, according to the Paris Accord. No country is doing what it should. So, by Haque’s own perspective, all nations are idiots, and all are pushing us rapidly towards the final apocalypse. Now we do not believe this, but he and his liberal tribe do, so it is a big problem, Mr Liberal “Smarty” pants.

     As Christianity is hosed down by the elites, as Islam is slowly being adopted as the religion of the Left, and globalists, there are other competing religious cults emerging from the Left, with Black Lives Matter as one candidate. Witness scenes a few weeks back of Whites on bended knees, worshipping Blacks. But is not just us proclaiming that BLM is a religious cult for witless whites:

“The most memorable footage of the Black Lives Matter protests, and perhaps the creepiest, doesn’t capture any acts of violence, any looting, any chanting of slogans or — so far as I can make out — any black faces. Instead, we see hundreds of mostly young people sitting in the parking lot of a public library in Bethesda, Maryland, raising both pasty-white arms in a gesture that suggests both surrender and worship. An invisible speaker is reciting a list of promises that the crowd repeats. This is what we hear:

     The movement is on for universal compulsory vaccination, ultimately, if they start by just high-pressure sales at first. We will see a vax campaign like nothing ever before seen, as the well-oiled machine goes into over-drive:

“By the looks of it, we are about to face one of the most aggressive vaccine campaigns ever created. According to Reuters, the U.S. government is planning to launch an "overwhelming" COVID-19 vaccine campaign come November, provided the U.S. Food and Drug Administration gives one or more vaccine candidates the green light. Considering former FDA commissioner Dr. Scott Gottlieb is now on Pfizer's board of directors, and Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine is one of the lead candidates, jaded minds might assume the FDA isn't going to put up any significant roadblocks. According to Reuters, the COVID-19 vaccine campaign "will likely be compressed into a short period of time, around four to six weeks, to eliminate any lag between when Americans are alerted to the vaccine and then they can get vaccinated." An unnamed "senior White House administration official" is quoted saying: "The fine line we are walking is getting the American people very excited about vaccines and missing expectations versus having a bunch of vaccines in the warehouse and not as many people want to get it. You may not hear a lot about promoting vaccines over the airwaves in August and September but you'll be overwhelmed by it come November." It's still unclear exactly when a vaccine will be available, but it could be as early as October, or as late as January 2021. According to the administration official, the advertising campaign for the vaccine will be tailored to specific subsets of the population, depending on the people the vaccine is likely to benefit the most. Such details are expected to be teased out during ongoing clinical trials.

     I have been reporting on US stories that show the future under majority non-white multicultural diversity, as the US is ahead of the same dangerous curve that Whites in Africa, especially South Africa have already embarked on. Thus, the crazed mobs in Seattle are coming out to the suburbs, with home stealing on their minds:

“An unruly group of Seattle protesters converged on a residential neighborhood earlier this week, demanding that the white people inside the homes give up their residences to people of color. The march was caught on video, which has since gone viral on the internet. What are the details? According to Twitter user Kitty Shackleford, the group — made up of about 50 demonstrators — marched down the streets of the neighborhood chanting, "Black people used to live here!" One man can be heard telling residents, "Hey guys, do you know that you are living in a historically black neighborhood right now? Do you know that before your white ass came here this was all black people? Do you know that people like you came in here and basically bought all the land from the black people less than what it was worth, kicked them out so you could live here? Do you know that? 'Cause if you don't, now you f***ing do, so do something about it." The unnamed male demonstrator added, "How do you plan to fix it because you are living on black people's land right now. ... I mean, native land, but black people lived here, too." A female leader in the group shouted, "Open your wallet!" and proceeded to demand that the residents give up their homes. "[G]ive up your house!" she insisted. "Give black people back their homes! You're sitting there comfortably — comfortable as f*** as if they didn't help gentrify this neighborhood! I used to live in this neighborhood, and my family was pushed out, and you're sitting up there having a good time with your other white friends." The male continued, "Let's not act like you just are oblivious to this s*** because you knew about it all along, and you were OK with it. But guess what, we're not, and we're bringing it to your front f***ing door so what the f*** do you plan to do about it?" "How do you plan to re-gentrify a black neighborhood that you obviously are for gentrifying because you live here now?" the male incoherently continued.

     While we are concerned about the Great Replacement, there is also a way of looking at this from the perspective of Blacks, who may also face decline. Here’s how:
  http://www.amerika.org/politics/why-blm-now/

“Blacks are beginning to politically and socially matter less than they did 20 years ago. Saying such a thing is !HERESY! Amerika’s most bestest President evah, King Obama The Wise and Sagacious, was Black (kinda sorta’ on Election Day). Does everyone remember how much more holy and beatific Amerika became the day he was anointed into office? Fair enough, me neither. But the Census tells us Whitey is dying off. Shouldn’t the average Black be out on the town ordering a Singapore Sling? I mean they can stick it to The Man who is too old and frail to successfully manuever his walker and escape. A new report from the U.S. Census Bureau shows America’s population is 60.1 percent white, the lowest level ever recorded. Among those under 16 years of age, fewer than half are white, a sign that white Americans are having fewer children and doing so later in life. “The nation is becoming more diverse, especially among the young,” said William Frey, a demographer at the Brookings Institution. Amerika is now more !DIVERSE! Happy Juneteenth. At least until you read the fine print. Asian Americans represented the fastest-growing segment of the population over the last decade. The number of Asian Americans in the United States grew to 22.8 million, a 29 percent increase. The number of people of Hispanic descent grew by 10 million, or 20 percent over the last decade. The median age among Hispanics is 29.8, though that number has risen two years over the last decade, a sign that fertility rates are slowing across racial and ethnic lines. Bi- and multiracial Americans are the youngest cohort, with a median age of just 21 years old.

  https://medium.com/@micbusler/young-americans-ignorance-results-in-them-favoring-socialism-3cf3906bca10

“According to a Gallup poll conducted last year, nearly 50% of young adults have a positive view of Socialism. This contrasts with 34% of Generation Xers and less than 30% of baby boomers. Maybe older Americans know something that younger Americans simply do not know. The poll also found that while 50% of young adults view Capitalism favorably, that figure is down from 66% in 2010. What happened in the last decade to sway the youth? It appears that the combination of a stagnant economy and ignorance of basic principles are what led the youth to view socialism more favourably and capitalism less favourably. Older and wiser Americans know more about the workings of Capitalism and its overall positive outcomes in the real world.”

     This is a good video, which says all we have said, but by leading British comedian Rowan Atkinson (Mr Bean), defending free speech. What is interesting is that this was said in 2012, but it is as if it was said yesterday, or tomorrow. He did a comedy sketch years ago mentioned in the title, which was a satire of speech suppression, and now what was comedy is reality.
