Chapter Ten
WAR BETWEEN IDEAS
The significance of the decision in Roe v. Wade does not come clearly in focus until one understands what happens on this planet when the ideas of the Founding Fathers of the United States of American are eliminated as the foundation of authority in the United States. The elimination of the ideas unleashed in the First American Revolution leaves only two ideas in competition to rule public opinion in the world, and through public opinion, to rule the New World Order.
Those two ideas come into focus when we examine the Second World War. Like all wars, the Second World War was a pitched battle between competing ideas or philosophies of government. In order to understand the Second World War, in order to understand any war, we must understand the ideas behind the War.
By the end of the American and French Revolutions only two ideas or philosophies of government justified the governments on this planet: Government in Service to the Ruler or Divine Right of Kings (this idea justified all governments in the world except the American and French); and Government in Service to the People which justified both the American and the French Revolution.
As we have seen, Government in Service to the People was subdivided between the American and French models: Rights endowed on individuals by the Creator justified the United States government; and Rights endowed on individuals by the will of the people justified the Revolutionary French government.
This subdivision becomes critically important in understanding our move into the New World Order, but before the subdivision can be put into perspective we must understand what happened to the two main ideas: Government in Service to the Ruler and Government in Service to the People.
After the First World War, Government in Service to the Ruler or the Divine Right of Kings had apparently been virtually vanquished from the world stage: the Ottoman Empire had collapsed, the Tsar was killed, the Habsburgs and Hohenzollerns were driven from their thrones. With the exception of oriental nations like China and Japan, only a few small monarchies, fiefdoms, and Emirates scattered in the backwaters of the world still clung to the idea.
But the idea was not dead. The fascists arose and gave The Divine Right of Kings a new name--the Fuhrer Principle. By any other name it was still the same idea: Government in Service to the Ruler. The Fuhrer Principle required the mechanism and structure of government to be totally subservient to the will of One person, the Fuhrer.
In defense of this idea were the fascist nations of Germany, Italy, and Japan. Hitler and Mussolini both saw themselves on a mission ordained by their god. Their supporters agreed with their vision. In Japan, the Emperor was understood to be god. His authority was Divinely Ordained. Since all three understood themselves to be Ordained to power by their gods, they were a unit created to defend the Divine Right of Kings. That was the basis for the union that existed among the Axis Powers in the Second World War. It is only with this context in view that we can begin to understand the Second World War.
Hitler, supported by the masses of Germans, named his enemy Judeo-Bolshevism. The name described an idea. In Hitler's mind, the enemy was an idea called Communism that had been created by Jewish thinkers to obliterate the Fuhrer Principle as a viable form of government.
Hitler scorned and ridiculed the Western Democracies for exactly the same reason he scorned the Communists: both the Western Democracies and the USSR represented Government in Service to the People, an idea in direct defiance of the Fuhrer Principle. The fact that there were major differences in the way Government in Service to the People was justified in Russia and the United States did nothing to diminish the fact that they were both sworn enemies of the idea of Government in Service to the Ruler, or the Fuhrer Principle as Hitler called his idea.
Hitler was correct. Government in Service to the People was the sworn enemy of Government in Service to the Ruler, or the Fuhrer Principle. People in the non-fascist states knew at the deepest visceral level that Government in Service to the Ruler had to be destroyed or the idea would end up ruling everybody. The history of Western Civilization had taught them that much.
Just as the Axis Powers were united in defense of the Divine Right of Kings, or Government in Service to the Ruler, the Allies were united in defense of Government in Service to the People. Secular Communism was the logical conclusion to the ideas unleashed in the French Revolution, a Revolution that had lopped off the head of anyone remotely connected with the idea of the Divine Right of Kings. The United States and Great Britain were equally committed to destroying any threat of a resurrected idea of the Divine Right of Kings.
In order to understand why the governments of the USA and Great Britain, along with their citizens, were utterly incapable of being anything other than the sworn enemies of Hitler and his allies, it is necessary to see clearly that by the Second World War both the USA and Great Britain had severed themselves totally from the idea of the Divine Right of Kings. One of the great ironies of history is that the citizens of Great Britain, who once were willing to go to war against their colonies when those colonies rose up in defense of the idea of the Rights of Man ordained by the Creator, by the time of the Second World War, Great Britain had formed their government upon the same ideas they once had tried to destroy.
When Hitler came along resurrecting the Divine Rights of Kings as a reply to Communism, the citizens of the USA and Great Britain could never support him or his allies because they saw themselves as agents responsible for removing the power of the idea of the Divine Rights of Kings from the earth. Even though communism was justified by a definition of the will of god that omitted the role of an out-there-somewhere Creator, communism still appeared to be a minor threat compared to the idea of the Divine Rights of Kings.
Deep within the collective consciousness of the generation of American, English and Russian citizens who lived and fought during the Second World War was the sense that in this action their nations were fulfilling their destiny, accomplishing what they had been created to accomplish. While the resistance against fascism was rarely defined as the final obliteration of the idea of the Divine Right of Kings, most people sensed in the deepest part of their being that that was exactly what was being accomplished.
All the nations who united to destroy Hitler knew they were right to do it. But their reasons varied. In Russia, the people were right to destroy Hitler because it was right to survive. Americans were right for another reason: as Thomas Jefferson had written, "...the laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them..."
When the dust of the Second World War settled only one powerful idea of government authority was left upon the world's stage: Government in Service to the People. But that one idea had two major divisions. Secular Communism which defined Rights as gifts bestowed by the Government, and The American Idea of Rights which defined Rights as a gift of the Creator. Those two divisions immediately turned and looked at each other and saw the enemy.
And they were enemies. The American Idea as defined in the Declaration of Independence was built on the opposite foundation than the one upon which Secular Communism was built. Even though both ideas defined the purpose of government in terms of its obligation to serve the people, the two ideas defined individual rights in opposing terms. According to the Declaration of Independence, individuals were endowed with inalienable Rights because the Creator (a Being whose Will no human agency could abrogate) had endowed individuals with Rights. To Secular Communists, Rights belonged to people only as long as the people in power were willing to grant those rights. Rights were a privilege, not an inalienable gift from a power higher than any human government agency.
Not only was there a different definition of Rights, Secular Communists had an announced intention of obliterating the idea of a out-there-somewhere Creator from the mind of man. People who hold ideas, one of which is committed to destroying the other, are, by definition, enemies. The communist intention to destroy the idea of an out-there somewhere Creator clearly made the Communist idea the enemy of the government founded in the United States of America. The elimination of the idea of a Creator would destroy the foundation upon which the inalienable Rights of the individual were supposed to rest, and effectively define as fantasy the foundation upon which the government of the United States of America had been built.
February 7, 1990 will be a day long remembered in history. On that day Communism finally stood naked before the world. For decades hidden beneath layers of costumes, on that day Communism's last costume was shed.
And what did we see? We saw a body willing to embrace everything that had once been declared anathema by the high priests of Communist ideology--free trade, capital accumulation, multi-party competition, Constitutional checks and balances, popular sovereignty--in short, Communism embraced Capitalistic Democracy as it had evolved to be in the last decade of the twentieth century.
Hallelujah! You say? Actually that's one thing the communists left out; they did not say praise the lord. And therein lies the problem. And it's a major problem. In fact, the problem is so great that the resolution of that problem will determine the destiny of everyone on this planet.
A problem of that magnitude cannot be understood unless the context within which the problem occurred is first understood.
Karl Marx and Frederick Engels took the ideas unleashed in the French Revolution and gave them a comprehensive philosophical framework. Their ideas spawned the Communist Revolutions on this globe in the twentieth century.
Since they were humanists, Marx and Engels, and the Revolutions they spawned, defined the purpose of government as Service to the People. But from Marx's point of view, government did not serve the people by protecting their Rights, government served the people by protecting their survival. This distinction cannot be overemphasized because it defines the fundamental difference between the American idea of government and the Communist idea of government.
In order to understand the distinction, let us compare the two ideas of government.
According to the Communist idea of government, the government or the State is the real means through which survival is accomplished on earth. The State is an instrument which channels the Will of the people into a power mechanism that creates survival. Survival, according to Communist ideology, is created by the Will of the people.
Being a social Darwinist, Marx believed only the strong would survive. Marx looked at history and saw it as one long record of the many being oppressed by the few. Marx believed that the many were oppressed because they were ignorant. Marx believed that if the masses ever woke up and understood the way things really are, they would no longer allow themselves to be oppressed. Marx became a writer so he could teach the masses to quit being ignorant.
Marx saw society as a ebbing and receding flow of forces that included everything in the material world. His theories of economics and politics were his attempt to define those forces that included all individual facets of existence. As a humanist, Marx naturally understood that the sole aim of government would be Service to the People in its goal of survival. But since Marx saw reality in terms of forces rather than individual aspects of reality, the individual, whether individual tree or individual person, was expendable at best and at worst almost beside the point. In the final analysis it was the government, the State, that was the instrument of survival, not the individual.
The idea that individuals were endowed by their Creator with inalienable Rights was superstition pure and simple to Marx, Engels and all their followers. To Marx, the idea of the Creator was a creation of the mind of man, an act of reification. In other words, Marx believed that the idea of God was an idol that man had created to give comfort in a world where man felt unprotected and impotent to control the material world. Since Marx actually believed that there was no being other than man who defined right and wrong, and since survival was to Marx the self-evident purpose for life, right was whatever led to survival for man.
The Russian Revolution was the logical conclusion to Marx's ideas. A government was established that did not justify its existence and authority on the idea of a will of a Creator whose will was independent of the will of man. The Communist Revolution proudly proclaimed itself free from that superstition, and justified its authority solely on the right of people to do whatever was necessary to perpetuate their survival irrespective of any grand design by any Creator outside the will of man.
That was the beginning of the Secular Age; and it is possible that someday historians will define that as the beginning of the Modern Age. For in that event a clear line of demarcation was drawn in political affairs, a line that separated that event from everything that had gone before.
The Communists stood up and boldly proclaimed that the notion of god that had controlled the mind of man throughout recorded history was superstition. In place of the idea that there was a Creator out there whose will controlled mankind and therefore had to be seen to be the reason governments exist, the Communists substituted the idea that the will of man was the only true creative force in reality. Given that presupposition, people had every right to form their governments anyway they chose. Since survival was the self-evident desire of all mankind, any form of government that perpetuated that end was logically justified. Upon that considered opinion, upon those ideas, the Communist Revolution took its stand.
In the Post World War Two Cold War between the United States and Russia many people had a difficult time understanding how Russia and the United States could have been allies in the Second World War. These people do not understand that Secular Communism and the American form of government are natural allies when the enemy is the Divine Right of Kings or Government in Service to the Ruler. Since both Communism and Democracy held the ideal that the purpose of government is to serve the people rather than the ruler, they will always be allies when the enemy is a resurrected idea of the Divine Right of Kings. But, aside from an Emirate here and there and a bogus king stuck out in the boondocks, Government in Service to the Ruler is a dead idea. While Hitler proved that the idea always waits ready to be resurrected, there is little chance that the New World Order will be established on the foundation of Government in Service to the Ruler. No, the New World Order will be established on some variation of Government in Service to the People. The only question remaining is which variation of Government is Service to the People will rule public opinion and therefore the government that rules the New World Order.
As the USSR has gone through all the changes that has made it possible for it to now be perceived as an ally of the United States in the establishment of a New World Order, nothing has been uttered by any leader in Russia that would lead any observer to suspect that they have abandoned Marx's fundamental presupposition about the Cause of Reality. By all accounts, Communists still do not believe there is a Creator out there who endowed all people with inalienable Rights, and nothing has been said that would lead anyone to believe Secular Communism has abandoned the attempt to remove the idea of God from the mind of man.
Given these facts, one would expect patriots in all professions--legal authorities, teachers, preachers, et al--in the United States to be working fervently to acquaint the citizens of this nation about the dangers facing the ideas upon which the authority of the United States was founded. While much lipservice has been paid by many politicians and millions of their supporters decrying the legal decisions that removed the idea of the role of the Creator from government decisions, it is an undeniable fact that the problem has gone unsolved in the United States of America for over two decades.
Two explanations account for the facts: either the authorities and the citizens of the United States simply do not understand that the ideas designed by the Founding Fathers of the United States to have Sovereignty in this nation have been destroyed, or there is a Revolutionary Movement in the United States of America, which the citizens of this nation are consciously or subconsciously abetting, that has destroyed the Sovereign Ideas the United States of America was built upon. According to the American idea of Government, survival is a gift of the Creator. The Creator has bestowed as an inalienable gift the Right to Life. The Will of the Creator ensures that Gift, and government is only an instrument through which the Will of the Creator is enforced on earth. That idea defines the fundamental difference between the Communist and American ideas of government. That difference will not be swept under the carpet of history.
There is too much at stake. The elimination of the idea of the Creator from the United States is a problem that affects every citizen in the United States of America--no--every citizen of every nation on earth. Here's why: In the government created to rule the New World Order the question of individual Rights will be answered in one of two ways: either rights are bestowed on people by people, in which case people have the Right to withdraw Rights, or Rights are an inalienable gift from the Creator that government has been created to protect. No third option exists. We must choose between the two. Our choice will determine the form the government of the New World Order takes.
While the problem posed by the elimination of the idea of god as the foundation of government authority is important to everyone in the future, the problem is immediately relevant to all citizens of the United States of America. The entire justification of government authority in the United States is based upon the presence in reality of a Being outside the mind of Man who Created Life and who has a Plan to make the purpose of government the ensuring of certain Rights to individuals.
Very few people seem to sense what would happen to the authority of the government of the United States of America if the idea of a Creator like the One who was self-evident to the Founders of this nation is nullified on this planet. The authority of the government of the United States would be seen to be based on a fantasy, and it would never be possible to convince reasonable people that authority based on fantasy had a Right to exist, much less to govern.
There is no danger that the idea of god will be eliminated entirely from this planet. There will always be something that people believe actually creates and controls reality. This "something" will correspond exactly with what people have historically call "god." The only question to be decided on the earth today is which ideas will rule the New World Order.
The fact that the United States of America has now surrendered without a fight the ideas upon which the nation was founded has to be seen to be one of the most surprising events in human history, especially when that surrender is seen in light of the lengths to which the United States was willing to go to defend those ideas in the past.
