America's Second Civil War
The Sierra Times ^ | September 2, 2006 | Linda Kimball

Posted on 09/02/2006 6:34:38 PM PDT by little jeremiah

It has been reported that Gov. Schwarzenegger caved into the persistent demands of Cultural Marxists and signed into law SB 1441. This law---a foul subversion of our Rule of Law and Constitutional rights---serves to further undermine the traditional family and parental rights by forcing extreme sex education upon children. Campaign for Children and Families in California and America (CCFAC) is outraged and appalled by Schwarzenegger’s cowardly capitulation. Schwarzenegger has “trampled the religious freedom to satisfy hyperactive sexual activists...Schwarzenegger is doing what Gray Davis did---trample religious freedom at the bidding of liberal activists from San Francisco and Hollywood. He’s not the lesser of two evils, he’s doing evil.” (Schwarzenegger Squashes Religious Freedom, Save California, 8/29/06) American’s are increasingly puzzled, infuriated, and alarmed by the nonstop erosion of their freedoms. They want to know, “What’s going on and who are these Americans who’re working to deprive us of our rights and freedoms?”

In the “The Siege of Western Civilization,” Herb Meyers, former CIA analyst in the Reagan administration and one of the first scholars to predict the implosion of the Soviet Union, explains that there are three major threats to the survival of Western Christian-Judeo Civilization. The first of these is the war with radical Islam. The second is the incredible plunging birthrates throughout the West and Japan. We have stopped breeding, said Meyers, and this may well lead not only to destruction of the world economy, but to the extinction of entire populations. Nothing like this has ever happened before in the history of the world, declared Herb. Western Europe and Japan, said Meyers, are catastrophes simply waiting to happen. The third threat is what Meyers termed the ‘second civil war’ being waged within America by a coalition of God-hating progressive secular humanists (socialists), and Cultural Marxists (multiculturalists). As Meyers cautioned, these revolutionaries mean to overthrow and destroy the America of our Founders and its traditional Christian-Judeo based culture.

What is Communism?

In theory, communism is a classless social system in which all productive property is owned equally by the community rather than by the individual. This system therefore requires uniformity in education, food, clothing, dwellings, job, speech, thought, and even conscience. Because everything belongs to the State---including all citizens---and all social goods are to be shared equally, polymorphous sexual fluidity plays a prominent role in an aggregate of this sort. According to communist theory, a state of “social justice” will have been achieved when all individuality has been subsumed into the ‘group’ and all goods are shared equally.

History tells us that the earliest attempt at building a communist society took place in ancient Crete, around 1300 BC. This experiment inspired Lycurgus to set up a similar regime in Sparta. As Plutarch informs us, there was a uniform network consisting of education, gymnastics, and military training for youth of both sexes. Public meals and sleeping quarters were provided by the State and all land ‘fairly’ redistributed. Plutarch observed that because people themselves are viewed as property of the State, “no man was at liberty to live as he pleased, the city being like one great camp where all had their stated allowance.”

As Lycurgus was inspired by the Cretan experiment, Plato in turn, was inspired by the Lycurgus experiment. Plato’s ideal communist society would be ruled by philosopher kings and there would be “sharing of women and children among these, eugenic breeding, marriages controlled by the state, infanticide, abortion, and strictest censorship, all aimed at moulding citizens to the ideal design of his republic.” (The Theme is Freedom, M. Stanton Evans, p. 134)

In speaking of what led to the downfall of the communist Oneida Community in Oneida, New York (1848), William Hinds commented, “The first step out of communism was taken when ‘mine and thine’ were applied to husband and wife; then followed naturally an exclusive interest in children; then the desire to accumulate individual property for their present and future use.” (American Communities, Hinds, 1902)

As revealed by Hinds, the traditional family is the foundation of personal property, which is why Marx, Lenin, Trotsky, George Lukacs and comrades sought its destruction. Likewise, it’s why today’s Cultural Marxists are viciously attacking it and promoting sexually fluid alternatives such as polygamy and same-sex marriages. Additionally, since all goods are to be shared equally—even sex--- and promiscuity is, therefore, a prominent feature of secularized communal societies, Christian sexual ethics such as abstinence, fidelity, and monogamy are as antithetical as are the ideas of personal property and individual rights and freedoms.

Historically, all attempts at creating communist utopias have ended in failure. On one hand, the impossible dream of eradicating social classes has inevitably birthed totalitarian ruling classes. On the other hand, communism is quite simply, abhorrent and unnatural and people in their right minds want no part of it, which is why communists in this century have slaughtered in excess of 100 million people in their insanely evil quest to force this catastrophically unnatural system upon people…for their own good, of course. Seen in this light, the utopian ideal has been one of most vilely destructive fantasies to ever have infected the mind of men.

Who are the Enemy Combatants?

Worshippers of the communist principle (Cultural Marxists and secular humanists) are the enemy combatants who, while posing as patriotic Americans, are by deed waging a second civil war against the America of our Founders and traditional values Americans. With their disguises removed and their contemptible goals revealed it becomes clear as to why traditional marriage and Christianity are under a brutally relentless assault. It likewise focuses the light of truth upon the underlying motivation of the US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit who lashed out at parents on Nov. 2, 2005. In the ruling handed down by these black-robed totalitarians, it was declared that the upbringing of children, “does not extend beyond the threshold of the school door…There is no fundamental right of parents to be the exclusive provider of information regarding sexual matters to their children (and) parents have no due process or privacy right to override determinations of public schools…” These despots, who view children as chattel of the State and parents as sperm/egg donors, emphasized that the parents, “fundamental right to control the education of their children is…substantially diminished.” (Judicial Supremacists Lash Out at Parents, Phyllis Schlafly Report, Eagleforum, 2005)

America’s bastard children—Cultural Marxists and progressive secular humanists—are following the strategic plan for the overthrow of America that was designed by Marxist theoreticians such as George Lukacs and Antonio Gramsci of the Frankfurt Institute, a Marxist think-tank. According to plan, revolutionaries are dechristianizing America and sexualizing and dumbing-down her children while simultaneously encouraging kids to rebel against their parents. They are subverting the Rule of Law and Constitution, undermining national security and weapons-defense systems, working to erase our borders, preventing the US from drilling for much needed oil, colluding with Islamofascists, and provoking unassimilated immigrants into open rebellion. Additionally, they have created the abomination of special rights groups whose ‘special rights’ are enforced by quota systems, psychopolitical ‘sensitivity and diversity training’, Stalinist speech codes and fascist hate-crime laws. All of the aforementioned lend themselves to the disintegration of society and the unleashing of chaos…necessary prerequisites for revolution.

Until the advent of Christ---creator of mankind and Author of individual and political freedom---history was essentially a dog-eat-dog world. It was a ‘survival of the fittest’ world in which the common man dwelt in fear and submission to his government. Power flowed from the gods and goddesses to predatory kings, emperors, and monarchs and then they did whatever they wanted and told the people what they could or could not have in terms of freedoms and privileges.

The greatest revolution in the history of the world---the American Revolution---radically changed the tyrannical ‘top-down’ model. America’s Revolution led to the creation of something wholly unique---a Constitutional Republic where power flowed from God---our Creator---to all of the people, hence the term, “we the people.” Nowhere in the world but in America do “we the people”---empowered by our Creator---tell the government what it is allowed to do.

It’s in the Genesis account---where God made man in His own image and gave him dominion over the earth---where the all important and immutable first principles of life and liberty come from. In the Declaration of Independence these principles are expressed thusly, “that all people are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights…among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.”

These immutable first principles are exposited upon and made secure by the Constitution, Bill of Rights, and Rule of Law. Our rights and liberties---when rightly exercised within the limitations of moral discipline--- lead to the creation of a dynamic, prosperous society in which decency, safety, families, free markets, innovation, and creativity flourish for the good of all.

“The general principles on which the fathers achieved independence were…the general principles of Christianity…those general principles…are as eternal and immutable as the existence and attributes of God; and that those principles of liberty are as unalterable as human nature.” (Works, Vol. x. pp.45-46, Thomas Jefferson, June 28, 1813)

On behalf of a phantasmagorical utopia that exists only within the collective mind of the chronically disconnected-from-reality Left, Cultural Marxists and their allies---both national and international—are waging an all-out revolution to overturn the American Revolution and thereby destroy the America bequeathed to us by our Founders.

The wholesale destruction of the highest, most advanced form of civilization the world has ever seen is happening because, “We’ve forgotten what Western civilization is,” said Meyers, “we no longer teach it in the schools.” “Our culture is Western Civilization. This is who we are,” explained Herb Meyers. “We need to understand what Western Civilization is all about, such as the rule of law, human rights, and economic liberty, and above all we need to teach this to our children.

Western Civilization is completely bound to our Creator. He it is who endows us with our inalienable individual rights and liberties. Thus it is of the highest priority that we not only prevent Cultural Marxists and their atheist brethren---some of whom are even on the Right--- from finishing the job of severing Christianity from our government and culture, as they’ve so insidiously done, but that we repair the damage done by them. For if they succeed in finishing the job, Western Civilization will end and brutal tyranny unlike anything the world has yet experienced will commence.

Let us heed the prophetic advice of Daniel Webster who cautioned, “Hold on my friends to the Constitution and the Republic for which it stands. Miracles do not cluster and what has happened once in 6000 years may not happen again. Hold onto the Constitution, for if the American constitution should fail, there will be anarchy throughout the world.”

For over 225 years egalitarianism has best been defined by the American constitution and experience. Others can talk about it but we did it first and best.

'Egalitarianism' of course meaning 'white males only' for the majority of those 225 years. Women only got the vote in 1920, and the 24th Amendment was only ratified in 1964.

(Add 'landowning' as well for some 80 years as well.)

He made a terrible mistake. However, what do you think would happen if Phil Angelides were Governor?

He would have signed it too. Which begs the question: "Why do Conservatives vote for liberal Republicans when they do all the worst things that liberal Democrats do?"

Plus, if Angelides had signed this bill, people would have been outraged and a conservative GOP might have been able to channel that outrage toward political gains. Now that a "Republican" has done the honors, people who disagree with the homo-ification of society effectively have no place to turn.

See tagline.

True but Guiliani would never sell anyone out. He is who he is. He wouldn't pretend to be conservative on issues when he really isn't. Arnold did.

This is just California, looking forward, a Hilly presidency would, by her own words yield worse.
She has stated that:
"Many of you are well enough off that ... the tax cuts may have helped you," Sen. Clinton said. "We're saying that for America to get back on track, we're probably going to cut that short and not give it to you. We're going to take things away from you on behalf of the common good."

I'm afraid that this does not just extend to tax cuts but all of our freedoms. She really believes in a Queen Hillery. Amen.

Z....I'm sure that a Roman or Athenian would have been surprised to hear that.



z...I'm sure that Canada would be surprised to hear that.

Of course they'd have been surprised. But then the thousands upon thousands of slaves utilized as 'living tools and sextoys" were not considered to be humans anyway. (extreme sarcasm) As for Canada---where did you think they got the idea for their type of gov't from? Surely you didn't think it was based upon ancient Greece and Rome???

Fact check plz. Women never voted in ancient Greece and property ownership has never been required for voting in the US; it was only required at one time to be elected to office. Athens was a direct democracy which only allowed the naturalized male citizens of Athens the vote. Has the US ever restricted voting in federal or state elections to naturalized, city-dwelling males?

Strikeout is the same as italics but you put an *s* in instead of the *i*. Then it shows up with a line drawn through it, like this.

Well, first off, it is generally incumbent on the person *making* the claim (here, that Communism mandates identical education, etc.) to support it.

However, trivially, Marx wrote 'From each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs'. Plus the fact that victims/citizens of the Soviet Union received widely different educations - I know a couple of ex-Soviet Ph.D.s as well as some who lacked a college degree at all, so clearly people got different educations.

Nowhere did Marx write that everyone would receive, for example, identical pay for different work. I have to admit that this is something I am taking on someone else's word, but since it was Danny Goldstick (link) who told me this, I sort of tend to give him credit for knowing more about Marx than most people.

So, I'm open to being proven wrong, just provide some cites to writings of say, Marx or Engels where they say the Communist state will force everyone to have the same pay, education, etc, etc.

Communism was a failed experiment, and caused untold misery to millions, but there's no need to make stuff up about it like the original author did. It just makes her look ignorant, and more than slightly off-her-meds.

Others have noted other blatant errors in fact, I don't think I need to repeat them again surely. Anyone who thinks this writer is a genius or something really needs to improve the quality of their reading material and maybe get out more.
