When is the final decadence coming? from Sallust and Juvenal to the present (Part 2)

 

Juvenal (55 – 138 AD)  

Interpretations of any text, on any social subject and at any time, including the interpretation of the verses by the Roman poet Juvenal, are also the mirror image of the dominant political ideas — the dominant zeitgeist. But who will control the interpreter if many Western dissident thinkers today are forced to follow the pedagogical ukases set up by politicians after the end of World War II? In this respect one could cite Juvenal and his famous verse in the Sixth satire: “Quis custodet ipsos custodes.” Who will guard the guardians?, or better yet who will control the architects of today’s newspeak which is raging in the Western universities and in the mass media?

More or less the same principle of intellectual censorship and self-censorship reigns today in the study and research on different races. Given the liberal-communist dogma of progress and the belief that races are solely a social construct and not a biological fact, and in view of the climate of self-censorship running rampant in high education and in the media, it must not come as a surprise that scholars who analyze differences between human races are often accused of using “ethnic stereotypes.”

Now, the term “stereotype” has become yet another buzzword today among scores of speech sanitizers in Europe. The same procedure of lexical hygienics is taking

place when a biologist tries to explain the role of genetic differences in affecting the trait distributions of races. A geneticist, should he venture into the demystification of egalitarian dogmas about race and heredity is certain to be demonized as racist, fascist, xenophobe or a proverbial  White supremacist. The newspeak used by the media against the evil-thinking intellectuals  has spread by now in all chancelleries and in all European and American universities.

Admittedly, ideas, in this case false ideas, dominate intellectual discourse in the West and not the other way around. In the same vein, the dominant ideas which lie at the System’s foundations, will be a decisive factor in the interpretation of some new genetic discovery, and not the other way around. Recently we saw a witch hunt of the Nobel Prize winner James Watson, a co-discoverer of the structure of DNA. He was attacked in the mainstream media for his allegedly racist remarks made about ten years ago about Africans, stating that “our social policies are based on the fact that their [Black Africans’] intelligence is the same as ours — where all the testing says not really”[1]. What Watson said is shared by thousands of biologists and geneticists, but for reasons already mentioned, they remain silent.

Slide by Aaron Panofsky presented at an academic conference: Cheered by the deaths of several important scientists (such as Arthur Jensen, J. Philippe Rushton, James Watson), counting down the time until the the deaths of others (such as Charles Murray), praising the work of a co-ethnic, the academic leftist activist Jonathan Marks

Racial Science

Our distant ancestors possessed a keen sense of their racial heritage which they called genus. There is a mountain of books dealing with the strong awareness of common kinship and common lineage among the Ancients and into the first half of the twentieth century. One cannot cite all of these authors, especially German scholars of the early decades of the twentieth century who wrote  scores of books on racial decay of the ancient Romans and Greeks and whose books are ignored not only by the general public but also by mainstream scholars. It should be noted that before World War II and even much later, scholars and historians in Europe and America examined the racial factor in social behavior more often and more freely than is the case today.

Needless to say, the ancient Romans were unaware of the Mendelian laws of heredity as well as the complexities of DNA. However, they knew very well how to distinguish between a barbarian from northern Europe and an African barbarian. Some slaves were highly prized, such as the Germans who even served as bodyguards to Roman emperors and eventually became leaders of the Roman army. On the other hand, slaves from Asia Minor and Africa were frowned upon and were often the subject of jokes and popular derision.

Here is a brief quote from the American historian Tenney Frank, from his book Race Mixture in the Roman Empire which illustrates what the Romans thought of themselves and others. At the beginning of the twentieth century, Frank was often quoted by Latinist scholars and was considered an authority on the ethnic composition of ancient Rome. In his essay, following his research on sepulchral inscriptions made during his stay in Rome, he offers a racial classification of inhabitants in ancient Rome

.… by far the larger portion came from the Orient, especially from Syria and the provinces of Asia Minor, with some from Egypt and Africa (which for racial classification may be taken with the Orient). Some are from Spain and Gaul, but a considerable proportion of these came originally from the East. Very few slaves are recorded from the Alpine and Danube provinces, while Germans rarely appear, except among the imperial bodyguard. Bang remarks that Europeans were of greater service to the empire as soldiers than as servants.[2] 

And further he adds:

But what lay behind and constantly reacted upon all such causes of Rome’s disintegration was, after all, to a considerable extent, the fact that the people who built Rome had given way to a different race.[3] 

The ancient Romans had a clear idea that the peoples who came to Rome from the Orient were different tribes:

The slaves of Asia Minor and the Carian freedmen, Mysians, Phrygians and Cappadocians, namely Orientals, were, compared to the slaves from other provinces, particularly despised in the Roman conscience. The latter ones were famous on the grounds of their wickedness. [4]

In conclusion, it can be said that a good racial consciousness does not only mean a good knowledge of racial theories, or even worse, proffering insults against other races. Having a good racial consciousness means first of all having a solid memory of common lineage and a good memory of one’s kindred and common destiny. This has been the case with European tribes and European peoples since time immemorial. Once a nation’s heritage, including its heredity, is forgotten or compromised, society begins to fall apart as was observed in Rome and as we can see every day in Europe now. Roger Pearson, a prominent sociobiologist, in his study of decadence in ancient Rome, remarks that “the early Romans similarly held lineage in great respect and enforced a system of connubium, whereby freeborn Romans could only marry into certain approved stocks.”[5] No need to repeat how the duty of connubium in Rome should be practiced by young European would-be couples today. However, suggestions of this sort go beyond the scope of this article. Having been subjected for decades to Hollywood propaganda, it has become fashionable among young Whites to bond with partners of different races. Very rarely do sentiments of reciprocal love occur; rather we see a trend toward idealizing miscegenation originating from the reversal of traditional in-group values.

It is useless to criticize the effects of miscegenation without mentioning its causes. In the same vein, one must first decipher the causes of non-European immigration before criticizing its deleterious effects. Admittedly, as has been already pointed out, the main cause of decadence lies in neglect of racial consciousness. But racial consciousness had already been weakened or suppressed by the early Christian teachings on equality whose secular forms are now surfacing in the ideology of anti-fascism and the rise of various egalitarian and globalist sects preaching the end of history within a great multiracial and transsexual embrace. Criticizing Christian dogmas and their modern ecumenical visions of non-White migrants is quite an explosive issue among our traditionalist Christian friends and especially among our friends in America, a country where the Bible still plays a very important role. However, if we do not tackle the negative causes of Christian egalitarianism we might just as well be going in circles with our hollow remarks on the liberal or the communist evil. As much as it is very commendable to criticize “antifas” or the big capital of globalist corporations and their financial maneuvering, it must not be forgotten that the loudest advocate today of non-European migrations is the Catholic Church and its German and American cardinals. Roger Pearson writes:

Spreading first among the slaves and lowest classes of the Roman empire, Christianity came to teach that all men were equal in the eyes of a universal Creator God, an idea that was totally alien to older European thought which had recognized a hierarchy of competence among men and even among the gods. … Since all men and women were the “children of God,” all were equal before their Divine Maker!  [6]

If we were to trace and then combat the roots of decadence and its bad effects that manifest themselves in multiculturalism and miscegenation, we must first look critically at the early Christian teachings on equality. What we are now observing in the West submerged by non-European populations is the final and logical result of the ​​egalitarian and globalist mystique preached by Christianity over the last two thousand years.

    The white man and his civilization if he wants to survive must generate homogenous isolated communities, either within their own (already polluted) nations or colonize unpopulated virgin environments, discard the egalitarian Christianity and all its variants, since it is nefarious for survival of whites, prohibit corrupting Jews, or other races. The sociological philosophical analysis only serves to try to understand the phenomenon, but in no way it solves it, you must imagine a deadly plague (multiculturalism), therefore you have to isolate the pathogen (no longer performed) or self-isolate which is the most recommended at this time, otherwise the whites will not survive. We are against the clock.

      I think you and Dr. Sunic are drawing a false conclusion. That that Christianity is the cause of White Man’s decline. I think empirical evidence shows the exact opposite: as long as Europe was Christian, it remained white and vigorous. When Europeans started to abandon Christianity , racial decline soon followed. Some say that Christianity was a mask for Arianism. I agree, but it’s incomplete.

        It wasn’t the decline of Christianity exclusively that was a large part of the white world’s inability to hold firm against the coming tsunami of degeneracy and de-naturalization (‘entartung’, as Sunic says), but the decline of religiosity in general. Just as the classical world came apart once it began to adopt the foreign religious practices of the Levant, so it wasn’t the adoption of the Levantine nonsense that was the trigger for the fall from greatness, but the jettisoning of the native religion. All of this is of course, interlinked with the dilution of native blood.

        One hundred percent correct. Whites only began race mixing after decades of race mixing propaganda. Example: In the 1960s the ubiquitous TV guide magazine did a Christmas issue featuring photos of the families of the cast members of various shows. Larry Storch of F Troop had a half-black step daughter. She was left out of his photo.

    Are there no new ‘race scientists’ then? Because that would be quite concerning. Pretty much the only white nation in which that type of research can be conducted is the United-States, something like pioneer fund / mankind quarterly would be pretty much unthinkable in Europe today.

    As for christianity, I agree that its universalism is a problem for race-consciousness. It also pushed white men in trying to ‘civilize’ or ‘save’ non-whites by trying to make them ‘just like us’ rather than letting them be and not thinking too much of them. That had unintended side effects such as a massive population explosion in Africa thanks to white agriculture. Now I am not a christian myself but it is very difficult to deny christianity played a central role in the development of Western civilization as much as it seems to be paving the road towards its downfall. But it’s definitely time for a debate on how to align christianity with white identity, if such a thing is even possible.

    Tom Sunic is one of the WISE ones that I have enjoyed so very much over the years. Dr MacDonald has been blessed to have so many truly GREAT minds who write on TOO.

    “If we were to trace and then combat the roots of decadence and its bad effects that manifest themselves in multiculturalism and miscegenation, we must first look critically at the early Christian teachings on equality. What we are now observing in the West submerged by non-European populations is the final and logical result of the ​​egalitarian and globalist mystique preached by Christianity over the last two thousand years.”

    It surely appears to me that “Christians” for the last few hundred years read what Christ said and then turned around and did the OPPOSITE. Mr Sunic’s plain talk on this matter may offend the uncritical thinking type of Christian but not REAL Christians.

    There was a Russian General who came to America after the BOLSHEVIKS i.e. Jews took over his homeland.
    Arthur Cherep-Spiridovich his book published in the year he was murdered, 1926, was so ahead of its time, “Secret-World-Government” exposes the gang behind it all and this quote from his book, if anyone can tell readers where to get a PDF copy of this treasure please do,

    Why have I been so successful in all my predictions? Only because I most humbly agreed with the warnings of OUR SAVIOUR (St . John VIII, 44, St . Matthew XXIII, 15 etc .) . Never did I think that I “know better,” or that I ought to, be “less prejudiced” or not so “full of racial hatred,” as He. That is why everything concerning World affairs and the future of America and of the Aryan Race is clear to me, while all the statesmen writers, preachers and politicians are puzzled…

    Because CHRIST said clearly that there is a “Satan’s lust of murder and that the Jews – his sons – will do it.” And History, as we shall see, daily confirms this OUR SAVIOUR’S warning which means : “Gentiles, keep far away from the Jews!”

    The Talmud is today preached in every synagogue! It teaches “Thou (Jew) shalt smite the other nations, which the Lord delivers in your (Jewish) hands”…”kill the best goyim” (gentiles.) *In the New York Times of April 17, 1907, was published my prediction about the two Balkan and this wars…

    ”A war is only a “legalized mass murder.” Thus CHRIST pointed out those, who arrange all wars and revolutions, and that their chief cause is Satan’s and his sons’ “lust of murder . ”But “Christians” never seem to agree with CHRIST.

    Curmudgeon says:

    At the risk of creating a massive, unwanted, religious debate, I have this to say about “the early Christian teachings on equality”. There is nothing more in this than our modern day statements the we are all (allegedly) equal before the law. There is a very old saying: you can’t take it with you. While some pagans believed that material goods buried with you could be “taken”, even the Egyptians understood that your life would be judged by the Laws of Maat. People who were unworthy may not have crossed over. In that sense, the early Christian view of equality boiled down to the wealthy and powerful being judged by the same standards as the poor and disenfranchised. When you get right down to it, the conqueror worm doesn’t care whose carcass it devours.

    On Mar 19, 2019 an “Italian” school-bus driver, dumped several canisters of gasoline inside a school-bus full of students, and set it ablaze. It was a miracle that there were no victims.
    The inverted quotes around “Italian” require an explanation. In line with the Kalergi Plan for the Western World – more later – Italian and European mainstream newspapers resort to lexical acrobatics to avoid disclosing the name of migrant offenders. Furthermore, to promote benevolence they frequently describe the nameless criminal with terms as “the boy” (il ragazzo), even when the “boy” is later discovered to be in his 30s – a poorly disguised effort to free cowardice from reproach. For a criminal is also implicitly a coward, independently of his age or country of origin.
    It is only when the magnitude of the crime exceeds the limits of tolerated concealment that the reader discovers, in the instance, that the “Italian” who burned the bus was a migrant named Ousseynou Sy, from Senegal, who had easily acquired the Italian citizenship, to promote integration.
    Because of the fortuitous coincidence, here are the notes of a Peace Corp worker, written at the end of her stay in Senegal. They will show the reader the beauties of multiculturalism:

    Tom has many good qualities. It’s always a pleasure reading his soul. Whenever I come upon his thoughts there’s pondering about how far EuroMan has fallen and (2) if only we could have actual free association and open communique. Some say that had the Germans not won their street battles against the Reds, in the 1920s, Western Europe would have become communistic. This kinda makes a fellow wonder what would happen if today’s majority were to go after the few that censor freedom of communique…

    milan says:

    I must admit that I am new to this whole idea of miscegenation but does not the bible clearly spell out grave dangers of mixing with unbelievers etc. The last people to be involved in egalitarianism are Christian folk. I mean really:

    first the old testament…

    “I rebuked them and called curses down on them. I beat some of the men and pulled out their hair. I made them take an oath in God’s name and said: “You are not to give your daughters in marriage to their sons, nor are you to take their daughters in marriage for your sons or for yourselves. Was it not because of marriages like these that Solomon king of Israel sinned? Among the many nations there was no king like him. He was loved by his God, and God made him king over all Israel, but even he was led into sin by foreign women. Must we hear now that you too are doing all this terrible wickedness and are being unfaithful to our God by marrying foreign women?” (Nehemiah 13:25–27)

    Within the three days, all the men of Judah and Benjamin had gathered in Jerusalem. And on the twentieth day of the ninth month, all the people were sitting in the square before the house of God, greatly distressed by the occasion and because of the rain. Then Ezra the priest stood up and said to them, “You have been unfaithful; you have married foreign women, adding to Israel’s guilt. Now honor the Lord, the God of your ancestors, and do his will. Separate yourselves from the peoples around you and from your foreign wives. (Ezra 10:9–11)

    and the New Testament…

    “Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness? What harmony is there between Christ and Belial? Or what does a believer have in common with an unbeliever? What agreement is there between the temple of God and idols? For we are the temple of the living God. As God has said:
    “I will live with them
    and walk among them,
    and I will be their God,
    and they will be my people.”
    Therefore,
    “Come out from them
    and be separate,
    says the Lord.
    Touch no unclean thing,
    and I will receive you.”
    And,
    “I will be a Father to you,
    and you will be my sons and daughters,
    says the Lord Almighty.” (2 Corinthians 6:14–18)

    It’s interesting that what was once relegated to a nation is now applicable to another Israel: The Church of Christ. The more things change, the more they stay the same.

    I think everything changed with Emperor Justinian and his political declaration making the entire empire Christian by a simple political decree. You can’t do that with Christianity. Being baptized alone hardly makes one a Christian if that is all you have.

      milan- miscegenation means racial mixing, especially of White and black. This is a biological and not a religious idea. It does not mean mixing Christians with non-Christians.

      Prohibition of adultery- adultery and adulteration have the same origin. Adulteration means adding the inferior [non-White genes] to superior White genes. Adultery means intercourse outside of one’s race.

        thanks TJ

        there was a news article about an African forget where who went to university to become a doctor in the city of Ljubljana, Slovenia. Upon hearing it was that city the whole article stopped me in my tracks because of my relations there. The more I read the article the more questions it raised and then read this man married a Slovenian girl and became a citizen. Now that really blew my mind and to this very day the questions still haunts me. At the time the article was all positive about this and mentioning Obama and such. I however, was and am still flabbergasted thinking too myself how do 2 families from 2 completely different worlds and cultures manage to ever come together and share anything of a homogenous nature how? What her family is going to visit family in Africa and vice versa and share each others culture? Plus, the girl most likely is a Christian gal the country being Catholic so what’s up with marrying a guy from some African country. What really gets me however, is a medical school university, he chooses Ljubljana, Slovenia? Really? He leaves his homeland for that place? Enrolled in an English medial school would provide a far greater education correct? Either this man is seriously a very gifted individual where foreign languages come very easily to him or there is something else going on? I would have loved to be a fly on the wall of the admissions department at that university watching the reaction of receiving a letter of admission from the farthest reaches of Africa? If this miscegenation is truly what the powers be want I can’t for the life of me understand why, truly why? For me the answer to that question actually lies in the movie Braveheart lol where Longshanks says we’ll breed them out!!!!
        Lastly, culture is truly dying and dying not for miscegenation reasons really although that is certainly gathering steam but because of our industrial world and media. We today live in a very small world where one can experience any culture anywhere in the world by simply hopping on an airplane. I don’t know if MacDonald deals with this issue anywhere in his writings I’m new here really. When I say industrial world added to that is the media and the experts on such matters was McLuhan and Muggeridge. If it wasn’t for all our technology miscegenation would hardly be what it is today. Am I wrong to think this way?

        Fractional reserve banking- adding nothing [paper] to a gold based system- is also adulteration.

        Perhaps adulteration is the principal jewish principle- treating nothing as “equal” to something- there we see the connection between adulteration and egalitarianism.

        Indeed, show me an example of evil and I will show you equalitarianism: Satan “equals” God, women “equal” men, paper “equals” gold, blacks “equal” Whites, lies “equal” truth, weak race “equals” strong race, fantasy “equals” thought, statism “equals” free enterprise, and so on.

          yeah that makes sense although charging and taking of interest is the real name of the game and here’s a quote which sums up for me everything by a Col. Edward House:

          “[Very] soon, every American will be required to register their biological property in a National system designed to keep track of the people and that will operate under the ancient system of pledging.
          By such methodology, we can compel people to submit to our agenda, which will affect our security as a chargeback for our fiat paper currency. Every American will be forced to register or suffer not being able to work and earn a living.
          They will be our chattel, and we will hold the security interest over them forever, by operation of the law merchant under the scheme of secured transactions. Americans, by unknowingly or unwittingly delivering the bills of lading to us will be rendered bankrupt and insolvent, forever to remain economic slaves through taxation, secured by their pledges.
          They will be stripped of their rights and given a commercial value designed to make us a profit and they will be none the wiser, for not one man in a million could ever figure our plans and, if by accident one or two would figure it out, we have in our arsenal plausible deniability.
          After all, this is the only logical way to fund government, by floating liens and debt to the registrants in the form of benefits and privileges. This will inevitably reap to us huge profits beyond our wildest expectations and leave every American a contributor to this fraud which we will call “Social Insurance.”
          Without realizing it, every American will insure us for any loss we may incur and in this manner; every American will unknowingly be our servant, however begrudgingly. The people will become helpless and without any hope for their redemption and, we will employ the high office of the President of our dummy corporation to foment this plot against America.”

          What really gets me though is the uncanny way in which this sentence mirrors the words from the book of Revelation about:

          “He forced everyone to receive a mark in either their hand or forehead and that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark which is the number of his name” Rev. 13

          “Every American will be forced to register or suffer not being able to work and earn a living.”

          Is that uncanny or what?
