'You may live to see man-made horrors beyond your comprehension'
States taking guardianship over children for reasons concerning vaccination; ever more excess deaths; consistent decline in births; and the long march to indoctrinate children in perversion.
Today, near the end of the year 2022, I found myself reading and reflecting on some of the horrific stories which have become the stuff of daily life, wondering why it was destined for people such as us to fulfil the enigmatic prediction of Nikola Tesla of a coming age of man-made horrors.
… Stories of children being taken under guardianship from parents for mRNA disputes; of children being denied life-saving surgery for the same reason; of death rates soaring and birth rates declining after a pandemic; stories of children being taught satanic filth in school by gleeful and diabolical fanatics; of the US military harassing dissenters of this new sexual madness…
I will cover these stories below but before I do…
Critics often tell me that I am ‘too negative’, that I should not focus on the darkness of our current moment in history, that we can move on, that we should laugh at the liberal madness, that it will pass.
Hilaire Belloc wrote, “We sit by and watch the barbarian. We tolerate him in the long stretches of peace, we are not afraid. We are tickled by his irreverence; his comic inversion of our old certitudes and our fixed creed refreshes us; we laugh. But as we laugh we are watched by large and awful faces from beyond, and on these faces there are no smiles.”
Any rational person, any person with a concern for basic morality, any Christian, has a duty to see these faces beyond the laughter, to face reality as it is, to understand what is going on, to interpret the times…
As Christmas approaches, I always read again the famous poem by TS Eliot, ‘Journey of the Magi’, written after the modernist’s famous conversion in 1927, in which he declared himself a classicist in literature, a royalist in politics, and an Anglo-Catholic in religion.
The poem imagines the journey of the Magi, following the star to Bethlehem, from their point of view, years after their return home. Eliot asks the question of what the rest of their lives would have been like, and felt like, when they returned back to the pagan Orient, knowing that never again in this earthly life would they see or experience anything greater than what they had seen in the stable.
Subsequently, it strikes a sober note for a poem about Christmas, especially in its conclusion:
All this was a long time ago, I remember,
And I would do it again, but set down
This set down
This: were we led all that way for
Birth or Death? There was a birth, certainly,
We had evidence and no doubt. I had seen birth and death,
But had thought they were different; this Birth was
Hard and bitter agony for us, like Death, our death.
We returned to our places, these Kingdoms,
But no longer at ease here, in the old dispensation,
With an alien people clutching their gods.
I should be glad of another death.
I believe Eliot wrote this after his conversion to express that whilst he had found faith, he was living in a post-Christian era. Like the Magi, Eliot (as well as the wider Anglosphere and its Lost Generation after the Great War) would live under a political and social dispensation clutching to their own gods, alien to the faith it had forgotten or cast off. Eliot was under no illusion that something dark was coming, something like the pagan world of child sacrifice from which we had but only recently escaped in human history.
‘I should be glad of another death.’
Was Eliot wrong to express such a sentiment?
I don’t think so, so long as one does not dwell in despair. St Paul himself wrote that ‘to die is gain’ - but equally that ‘to live is Christ’. True courage, real endeavour, only has any meaning when it faces reality in full. And if you do not occasionally think about an asteroid coming to stop all this horror, I wonder if your eyes are open; do you see the same large and awful faces I do?
Now, onto the grinding wheels of the regime, beginning with New Zealand health officials taking forcible guardianship of a baby for reasons concerning vaccination…
