What is Treason?

By Davis Carlton

Steve Hays of Triablogue has posted a brief discussion on the concept of “race-traitors.” I find many of Hays’ writings on theological topics to be of interest, although I disagree with his rejection of Kinism. I thought I would offer my own thoughts in response to what he says in his brief post. Hays begins by noting, “The ‘race-traitor’ epithet is used both by (some) whites and blacks. Is that ever a legitimate category?”

To answer Hays’ rhetorical question: yes, race treason is a legitimate category. That the Bible condemns treason should be uncontroversial. Judas Iscariot is also identified as the traitor (Lk. 6:16), the Apostle Paul condemns traitors (2 Tim. 3:4), and Stephen accuses those who were about to stone him of being “betrayers and murderers” (Acts 7:52). Race is the broadest subcategory of mankind encompassing many people from similar ethnic backgrounds. The Bible uses many different designations that radiate outward from the basic social unit of the family. Several families comprise a clan, several clans comprise a tribe, and several tribes comprise a nation. Nations are hereditary and genealogical (1 Chr. 1-8, 9:1), and are typically named for a prominent patriarch. read more

A Short, Sharp Response to TGC’s ‘Why Are Black Women Increasingly Identifying as Bisexual?

By FH Glastonbury

Read the original article here.

I learned on TGC today that one in four black women are gay, that black Christians view pornography at higher rates than white unbelievers, and that black Christians don’t let their religion interfere with their longstanding habits of fornication, homosexuality, adultery, etc:

“Yet even though Black Americans tend to be more conventionally religious than Whites on average (Shelton & Emerson, 2012), research has shown that Black Americans, and especially Black men, do not tend to connect their religious piety to their sexual norms and behaviors to the extent that Whites do. read more

What Color Were The Israelites? A Study in Anti-White Hypocrisy

By Davis Carlton

The modern world is absolutely obsessed with “diversity.” In our Orwellian anti-white world the word diversity doesn’t mean acknowledging the unique characteristics of the various racial and ethnic groups throughout the world. Diversity invariably means non-white immigration to white countries, white families adopting non-white children, and interracially marrying, while at the same time praising non-white communities for their solidarity and resistance to ubiquitous white privilege, racism, and oppression. It’s been well-established that diversity is a euphemism for white genocide. Modern Christians are no less obsessed with this kind of diversity than their secular Western counterparts. read more

The Government Outlawed Christianity and Nobody’s Talking About It Because They Are Afraid

By Ehud Would

Columnist Peter Heck has thrown caution to the wind with a recent forecast: “Criminalization of Christianity is on America’s horizon”. And others in the American Redoubt movement have launched a fictional serial based on the same proposition of a dystopian future. At which every Evangelical GOPer reassures himself, clutching tight his Scofield bible and reciting to himself Lee Greenwood’s refrain, “And I’m proud to be an American, where at least I know I’m free!” read more

A Pictorial Manifestation of The Death of The Christian West

By Davis Carlton

Traditional orthodox Christianity is a mostly dead faith. It absolutely pains me to admit as much, but there can be no doubt Christianity is on the steep decline as we witness mass apostasy that has rendered us worthy of divine judgment. This judgment is apparent in a number of ways: the mass exodus of people from any form of organized Christianity, the abandonment of traditional Christian doctrines and morals by professed Christian clergy, the banishment of Christian symbols from public life and the rise of anti-Christian symbols like rainbow flags and satanic sculptures in places of prominence. There is also the sad spectacle of the demolition of beautiful architecture, especially historic and beautiful churches. read more

What Made America Great?

By Davis Carlton

I recently watched a YouTube video by ‘Monsieur Z’ titled, Alternative History: What If America Stayed Great? The video is an exercise in counter-factual history featured on a channel that focuses on speculative “what-if” scenarios. The video’s creator is notably sympathetic with Donald Trump’s “Make America Great Again” campaign and notes that Trump’s slogan is not without controversy. If America is to be made great again the question naturally arises as to when exactly America was great, and what was it that made America great? The premise of the video is that America was great during the 1950s and subsequently lost that greatness throughout the degeneracy of the 1960s and 70s. This degeneracy was actively promoted by the Communist Party that was secretly supported and funded by the USSR and thoroughly entrenched in Hollywood. The communist cabal was the fruit of seeds that had been planted on American soil by the Frankfurt school, a group of communists that had been expelled from Germany during the 1930s. read more

A Dozen Quick Arguments Against Interracial Marriage

Race is a blood relationship that can be succinctly and Biblically defined as a group of people sharing common descent from a particular man. As such, it is a pattern that repeats at any scale. In the broadest sense, there is one race, the race of Adam. In the narrowest sense, my son is of the race of me. In truth, the Bible doesn’t deal too much with races, but predominantly uses the broader concept of nations. A nation is a group of people sharing a common race, religion, location, and history. Simply put, the people of a nation share a common identity that forms the basis of a shared understanding. read more

PCA Prepares to Anathematize the Sin of Noticing at 44th GA

The many social justice warriors in leadership positions with the Presbyterian Church in America are working furiously to prepare new and exciting overtures for the 44th General Assembly, upcoming in June. The PCA is hopeful that these new resolutions will atone for the many sins of the old Southern Presbyterians while helping the burgeoning denomination to win social acceptance and the approval of popularly recognized authority figures. Top on the list of new proposals: a formal anathematization of the sin of noticing. The proposal’s co-author, Dr. Sean Lucas, explained, “While the contemptible baseness of noticing is evident to any Christian with a social conscience, we in the PCA want to be at the forefront of formally denouncing this great evil. Too long, we in the faith community have tolerated noticing when we should have been the first to condemn it. As Dr. Tim Keller taught us in Deconstructing Defeater Beliefs, an integral part of Gospel Neighboring is increasing Gospel Attractiveness by connecting the Gospel with baseline cultural narratives, and thereby diminishing Gospel Exclusiveness. We want to make our cities great places for everyone. Nothing I can think of would more broadly increase the appeal of the Gospel to our postmodern society than condemning the sin of noticing.” read more

Is Segregation Scriptural?

Nathanael Strickland of Faith & Heritage interacts with a 1960 sermon from Bob Jones:

Kinism is often accused of being a new invention by our multiracialist Alienist opponents. Our response is that, while the name may be new, our beliefs are the same as historical Christianity; we are forced to take on a new name for ourselves due to the Marxist hijacking of modern Christianity. While they may sit in control of the denominations and speak for what passes as Christianity at present, it is their views which are the new invention. We are the true heirs of the Christian tradition, and our views are the ones holding continuity with the past. The first part of this proof is offered by the Alienists themselves. That they must so thoroughly condemn and apologize for their forefathers betrays their discontinuity. This alone should be enough, but as further and more concrete proof, I offer the following sermon by Bob Jones Sr. from 1960, entitled “Is Segregation Scriptural?” In 1960, Protestantism was the predominant religion in the South, and Bob Jones Sr. was one of the most prominent figures in the Protestant South. Bob Jones Sr. was the founder and first president of Bob Jones University in Greenville, South Carolina, which, along with Pensacola Christian College in Florida, was and still is one of the most influential fundamentalist Christian institutions in the region and even the country. His disagreements with Billy Graham were a large contributing factor to the split between fundamentalists and evangelicals in 1957. He helped pioneer the practice of giving sermons on the radio, which in fact is how this particular sermon was given. Thus it is reasonable to say that his views in this sermon are definitely representative of the views of white, conservative Christians in the South at the time, and probably even some of the more moderate Southern Christians and white, conservative Christians in the North. read more

The Marxist View of Man as a Generic Being

From Gonzalo Fernandez de la Mora’s Egalitarian Envy: The Political Foundations of Social Justice:

Marxist egalitarianism is not only political and economic (“to each one according to his needs”) it is anthropological. The subject of the communist society is not the individual, but generic man. This is the famous text: “When the real, individual man will retake possession of the abstract citizen, when in his empirical life, in his individual work, and in his individual relations he becomes transformed into generic being; when man recognizes his own strength as the strength of society…only then will he attain human emancipation.” This is, therefore, almost a metaphysical egalitarianism, where man becomes a species, a universal concept, and acquires that property which belongs to the beings of reason, absolute equality. This thesis carries with it another subordinate egalitarianism: labor. This is a theory of work that claims to be a “means, homogeneous and abstract.” For Marx the worth of merchandise depends on the amount of necessary work required to produce it; not any one particular form of work, but only the abstract, standard work of a worker as a mean: “with a degree of ability and intensity within determined social conditions.” Work, as it becomes something statistical and anonymous, may be perfectly divided into equal parts. This is the suppression of all laboral differences. “The total laboral strength of a society, observable in the total value of all the merchandises, though embracing innumerable individual unities of work, amounts to as much as an undifferentiated mass of human work; each of these individual units is equal to the rest.” This type of “abstract” work corresponds to the “generic” man. In this manner, workers as much as their efforts are interchangeable and equal among themselves. In its ﬁnal phase, communist society would provide total equality to all subjects – generic man – and the total equality of the patrimony: everything according to the quota or collective (capital, power, work, and income). Marxist egalitarianism, despite its protestations of materialism and empiricism, is the most speculative and metaphysical of all: generic man and abstract work are two over-reﬁned abstractions of reason. read more
