Belloc saw Islam as less a new religion than a heresy that selected among Christian doctrines. True. Mohammed read both the OT and the NT. He decided the tenets of his own religion off of both Judaism and Catholicism adding his own moon god twist.
So, yeah, the muslin religion is a fabricated heresy.

I have little doubt that Islam is the Beast religion of Revelation.

There was a period back in the 80s when I read several of Belloc's books, and he seemed very prescient about many things, including the possibility of a resurgence of Islam.
Within the church, he has almost entirely fallen out of favor, and is little-read these days. Belloc's traditionalism and orthodoxy are now very much the exception.

Great essay, and so sadly true.

What a healthy immune system does, is recognize what is “me” and attack anything which damages “me”. AIDS cripples the immune system’s ability to attack damaging foreign organisms. The host ultimately dies, not from what AIDS does directly, but from all the invading diseases which the immune system no longer is able to fight off.
Multiculturalism, which demands us to be timid about being proud of Western Civilization, which declares it evil to preferentially desire the welfare of our own people, is the societal analogue of AIDS.
