Rome fell in 476 AD due to a combination of economic; political; military and social factors but predominant amongst these was the decline in intelligence and in standards. Political intelligence in ancient Rome fell and collapsed into arbitrary, authoritarian rule, where the political elite could not competently manage the military and social resources of the vast empire. Security was lax and along many of the borderlands of the Roman empire, non-existent. Political leadership was cowardly with long lines of incompetent leaders rendered incapable of implementing needed political and military reform to protect Roman civilization. Social intelligence declined as well. Though Christianity was strong in parts of the empire, and comprised about 50% of the popoulation by 450 A.D., the low pagan standards, the lack of morality and a decline of rationality was a harbinger of political and military decline. The two fed each other. The lack of civic intelligence was directly reflected in the mismanagement of the empire by imbecilic political leaders. The lack of leadership and reform, and the low levels of all standards of conduct, thinking, and morality led to the debauchery of the public intellect. Thus did Rome fall. It was as Gibbon said, ‘not worth defending’. Now the question is – is our own civilization worth defending?

Western civilization has been under attack from globalists, socialists, Marxists and the welfare state for 60 years or 2 generations. It takes only one generation to destroy an ideal and eradicate the vestiges of civilization. We are thus pretty far advanced in the dismemberment of internal standards that guarantee progress and civilization. The all-powerful-state model has led ineluctably to lowering of all standards in public and private life. This is not to glorify repressive Puritanism; abstract fundamentalist Christianity or god forbid, the superstitious and silly paganisms of Native Indians or Muslims. However the all-powerful-state is just as much of a danger to our society and civilization as pagan Hitlerism, godless Communism or cultist Islam.

The state-as-God-complex, epitomizes the internal decline and much like Roman self-immolation it rots the body politic from within, spreading like a cancer until the host gives up and submits to external challengers. In the modern world the most excitable fascism which waits like a jackal for its Western prey to fall to the ground is the evil paganism that informs the fascistic elements of Islam. Islam has its red eye focused on Europe – the ancient cradle of Western civilsation – but the hyena will not be satiated with the creation of only EurArabia. It desires the elimination of all forms of Western civilization. The all-powerful-state is unwittingly aiding Islam in this goal by destroying through the guises of a Corona or Climate fascism, the very foundations of once Christian Western heterodoxy and civilisation.

How does the all-powerful-state, or the state-as-God and the attendant left-liberal orthodoxy aid the enemy of culture and civilized progress?

The omnipotent-omnivorous-state destroys the following important ‘pillars’ of societal development and civilisational creation: individualism; morality; spirituality; capital formation and innovation; high culture; and rationality including the force of reason. Europe is the classic case example of the state’s inimical effect upon the body politic. The state-as-God ideal is based on four faulty premises all of which lead to instability, self-hatred, lethargy and confused morality:

1. Western civilization is loathsome and evil.
2. Only a technocratic elite can safely mange the progress of society to ensure fairness and equality.
3. Spirituality leads to conflict and is unnecessary.
4. There are no standards of right and wrong, good and bad, high and low culture. All is good, all is relative, all is golden.

These premises which govern the welfare state are idiotic. Western civilization and the medeival ideals of our forbears along with Judeo-Christian ethics are the core organizing principles of our civilization and indeed of any civilization worth calling itself one. The institution of the Church has nothing to do with the basic ideals of Christian ethics nor does it negate the spiritual, intellectual and economic advancements given to mankind by the medieval and early modern ears, which were the greatest set of innovations in the history of human development.

The omnipotent-state promulgates that the Catholic Church for instance or the other worldliness of some parts of Christian doctrine, mean that the ethos, the principles and the preachings of Christianity are somehow unworthy. This is dangerous and anti-rational. Christianity is many things but neither Christ nor his main followers wanted a clerical elite [witness the attack by Christ against the moneychangers at the temple who used profits to enrich the clerical elite]; instead they focused on freedom; the eradication of slavery; empowerment of women; and mercy for the poor and sick. Importantly Christianity and Western ethics revolve around rational individuality and the methods to succeed in life and as well as coming to a personal understanding with God and your own existence. Dangerously the state-as-God replaces a spiritual essence, which all humans need to survive, with a belief in a technocratic, all-knowing elite, who 'own the science'. Personal salvation and the individual understanding of spirituality is thus replaced by government dictats. This inevitably leads to lower standards.

When a society has no spiritual faith or higher belief it disintegrates into mysticism or apathy. Thus our Western civ is now a godless hypocritical, and cowardly collection of self-loathers, which allows Islam and pagan cults offering up sacrifices to viruses or climate, step by step to build their mosques and temples over our Churches and freedoms. Unsure of itself and feeling unworthy in the face of those who seem so confident, the West submits, funding mosques which now are the most prominent features of many large European cities including Rome, encouraging Islamic immigration, and funding Koranic schools which teach hysterical anti-Western propaganda. Debasing our energy system with non-Gaia friendly and useless turbines and solar panels, ensuring penury and scarcity. Implementing gender fascism enforced by a useless police corps. The Western self hatred is evident in its submission to Islam and these cults of irrational stupidity through ‘hate laws’ governing all speech that could be ‘hurtful’ to the wonderful paganism of Islam [anti-Jew or anti-Christian hate speech is of course to be applauded and protected], or the various pets of climate and gender fascisms.  The state-as-God demands the unfettered arrival of endless Islamic immigrants, as well as funding polygamy and ‘fetching marriages’ to 2nd cousins from the home country.  Opposing such policies makes you a racist, fascist and criminal. 

Submission to Islam, the Climate cult and the gender fascists, follows a general pattern of decline in Western society as it builds an anti-Christian, anti-rational world. Unfettered Muslim and African invasions, Corona and Climate Change are the hallmarks of this pagan immorality. Clean burning carbon, gas and coal are toxic. Work is eschewed. Profits forsworn. Innovations deemed unimportant. Productivity is not a concern. Welfare, vacation time, and redistribution are the vital keys to living. The rhetoric, the multi-cult technocratic model, and the replacement of high culture with low standards are exalted in an orgy of anti-Westen and anti-Caucasion racism and slander.  Genders don't exist.  Intelligence and reason are replaced by a mystic belief in the all-powerful state and an acceptance of the crude fascism exemplified by Islam or the Corona-Climate Fascisms.

Rome conquered Europe and fell in a self-flagellation of loathing, low standards and non-existent morality. Freedom has responsibility. Part of freedom is based upon high standards, rationality and knowing right from wrong; good from bad; and having the will to defend the fruits of millennia of labor and experimentation. The 'West' has failed and is now engaged in a civil war of destruction. History repeats and bites.
