Religion is the cornerstone on which all civilisations are built.

From that foundation spring culture, laws, social habits, and morality.

A culture ripped from its religious soil dies.

With that in mind and for that reason, Great Britain is perishing before our very eyes.

With the ostentatious Ramadan celebrations in London, the call to prayer organised by Humza Yousaf First Minister of Scotland in Bute House on Good Friday, Church of England professionals celebrating “anti-whiteness” and Trans-Visibility day purposefully organised to coincide with Christianity’s most sacred days, Easter 2024 has been the year when this truth has been fully revealed.

Little would highlight the demise of our once great institutions more than an illiterate Metropolitan Police officer explaining to a bemused woman that people parading with a Swastika during a pro-Palestinian march over the course of the Easter weekend were not necessarily anti-Semitic.

Context, as the hapless Police Officer said, was required for a proper judgement to be made.

Be that as it may, our cultural inheritance has melted like snow in the spring.

Only in some rare cultural Glaciers are traces of our once formidable and glorious past still in evidence.

The reason is straightforward.

Having grown up to dismiss the past as a Godforsaken place, our leaders convinced themselves, and a few others, against all evidence, that religion didn’t matter.

As a result, they invited in the country, a large number of people for whom religion is the only thing that does.

Having placed all on the Red of Progress, they might soon find themselves unable to control the religious passions they imported and which they are not intellectually armed to comprehend.

Queers for Palestine take note.

They were so certain in their righteousness.

To them, the mantra was that all religions were the same, nothing more than superstitions, which would melt away with every extra step taken into a certain and more “Progressive” future.

Wiser heads, learned in history, theology and in humanity’s complexities, who played Cassandra to their Paris, were dismissed as, at best, reactionaries.

Religions, it goes without saying, are not all the same and not at all the same.

The consequences of belief are all around us for us to see.

The divergence in fact and over time between each single belief is immense.

Europe grew to be what is has become until recently not because of an oversupply of men, raw material, or resources.

Much of the advancement made by Europeans came through the application of moral discipline in its broad meaning, in which Truth-seeking, defending and exposing were fundamental.

This, objective moral discipline, was the key determinant of Christian belief, not subjective Tolerance, as is so often erroneously repeated.

To the contrary, Tolerance was the corollary to Emancipation as preached by Rousseau and Marx, which demanded the removal of moral constraints in order to refashion society and remodel man.

The apex of this atheistic madness were the Soviet Union, Communist China and National Socialist Germany. A peak we are well on our way to climb and revisit once more.

Saint Augustin of Hippo wrote in “City of God”, his Magnus Opus, three years after the sack of Rome in 413 AD, that “it is the highest duty of religion to imitate Him whom thou worshippest” when addressing the Pagans of his time, who blamed the fall of the Empire on Christianity, adding that “many are inflamed by hatred against it and feel no gratitude for the benefits offered by its Redeemer”.

Based on this definition as well as historical and contemporaneous observations, Saint Augustin’s definition of religion is instinctively true.

If imitating “Him” that one worships is one’s highest religious duty, it is staggeringly wrong to believe that all religions are the same.  

Indeed, worshipping Jesus or Mohammed leads down very different paths.

Mohammed is understood by some to be the best example for mankind.

Furthermore, in chapter 8.24, the Koran admonishes believers to “obey God and the Apostle when he (Mohammed) calls you”, elevating Mohammed in the process to a godlike status.

The view that Mohammed is the best of mankind is a question of faith not of fact.

From a Christian perspective that claim is debatable to say the very least.

There is much in Mohammed’s behaviour, from a Christian perspective, that would be deemed to be contrary to our concepts of morality.

In short, there is little to no philosophical overlap between Jesus and Mohammed.

A society based on Mohammedan principles, as a result, will be fundamentally different to one based on Christian ones.

Most observers would agree to this simple point.

But our leadership, fully convinced that their “end of History” hypothesis was true, have legislated with the 2010 Equality Act as a key milestone to entrench their nihilistic views not just that “all religions are the same” but also that the “religion” on which the whole British edifice was built has equal weight to “gender reassignment”, “pregnancy” and “sex”.

In so doing, they, all three main parties, safeguarded our cultural deletion.

The acceleration of the erasure of our past along with the constant attack on our cultural foundations both internally and externally have been clearly brought to life over the last few days.

It was not just the crucifixion of one man and his resurrection that we were supposed to remember this Easter but instead to stand witness to our country’s planned demise on Good Friday in the hope of seeing her restored when sanity again comes to prevail.

Before too long, one must hope.
