Suffer the Same Fate

Jesus Politics linked to this, an absolutely scary schema of thought to contemplate.

This dude’s bio info on the site renewamerica.us, is as follows:

James Atticus Bowden has specialized in inter-disciplinary long range “futures” studies for over a decade. He is employed by a Defense Department contractor. He is a retired United States Army Infantry Officer. He is a 1972 graduate of the United States Military Academy and earned graduate degrees from Harvard University and Columbia University. He holds three elected Republican Party offices in Virginia

And here’s what a guy with all those degrees and offcies held has to say:

Destroying domestic Islamist enemies

Unless the U.K. has a Great Awakening of its traditional Christian faith, it’s doomed to a long twilight struggle against the enemies being born within the gates. The U.S. shall prevail. If domestic Islamists ever threaten like the Indians did, then they will suffer the same fate. Or, Muslims will be assimilated as Christian Evangelicals love them into Christian faith and Western Civilization — American culture.

“suffer the same fate”? What hubris! What absolute hsitorical blindness! What a demonic force has laid hold of this guy! “Threaten like the Indians did”. Yeah, that’s pretty much exactly like what happened there. We simply march in and take over resources. We “free” them from their “lack of progress” and usher in a whole new era of Western technology and “progress”. After all, they would have NEVER done this “on their own”. (As if our idea of progress is the ultimate good, the only type of society worth founding. And so on we march, across the ocean and onto the NorthAmerican continent, across it to the west, “clearing out” all who stand in the way of we who know what progress is, and we “showed them” how to do it. Now we are about the same thing in Iraq, with a culture just as foreign and inaccessible to us due to our socioligal assumptions that we are superior. Sounds kinda like Nazism, but it’s really the sickness of Inperialism; of Empire.

    I’d suggest staying away from James Atticus Bowden. I’ve read a few articles that Carlos has linked to, and he comments like a fanatic on Jesus Politics. It’s pretty much pagan and pretty much 100% civil religion hubris. Focus your mind elsewhere, if you can, bro! 🙂
