Is Muslim immigration a boon or bane?

Islam will rule the worldShould it be permissible to freely choose who we like and dislike in life? To disparage certain religions because of their irrationality? To feel uncomfortable around two males kissing in public? To want to live among one’s own kind in regards to intelligence, values and cultural mores?

No, it is no longer permissible to think the above thoughts, partake in the above actions, and adhere to the above values in society today. The Political Correct Monster rules modern Americans like Hitler swayed German youth. It is the socio-cultural regimentation arm of the State. It is one of the most powerful tools of modern tyranny.

As Aldous Huxley warned decades ago, schoolteachers under a totalitarian state become instruments to teach the young to love their servitude. Learning ceases to be about truth and freedom. It becomes propaganda needed to administer the ruling ideology of the nation’s military-banking-corporate combine.

Today’s ruling ideology in America and the West is “liberalism,” sometimes known as collectivism or statism. It has, over the past 100 years, seeped insidiously into America like heroin invades a ghetto to decimate all coherence and health among its inhabitants. Liberalism is death to sanity, to freedom, to vibrant culture and a meaningful life. Yet it rules our choices and the dreams of our children with a vice grip. It begins its hold over their minds in kindergarten to poison them with its rancidity.

The Ideology of Multiculturalism

Liberalism’s latest ideological ploy is multiculturalism, which teaches that countries who do not maintain extensive cultural diversity are morally wrong and must be corrected – by persuasion if possible, but by massive government coercion if necessary. A just nation must incorporate all cultures, languages, mores, and values, all levels of life. High class, educated immigrants are not to be favored. We must open our borders to all of humanity even though such laxity will permit terrorists, drug lords, primitives, Jihadists, fascists, zealots, budding tyrants, and germ infested lowlifes to find their way into our society to spread their venom.

Such is the irrationality and ultimate denouement of liberalism. What does this mean for us? It means that Paris is coming to America. It’s merely a matter of time before the carnage and Islamist terrorism of France become regular travesties in America, for we have adopted the same philosophical principles of the French intellectuals, only in a modified form, which will merely destroy us at a slower pace, but nevertheless destroy us. We have embraced the “god of multiculturalism” that liberals worship like beggars of the Ganges worship fat statues.

People think philosophy is only for the ivory tower. On the contrary; it is the fundamental root of what kind of society we become. France is disintegrating because of the irrational Marxist philosophy upon which she has built her culture, her political system, and her economy. We will be no different.

There are millions of immigrants clamoring to get into America. Are we to bow to liberalism’s demands and obliviously admit them all, thus opening up our heartland towns and neighborhoods to the destruction that comes from people who cannot appreciate the requisites of freedom because the most powerful motive in their lives, their religion, preaches theocracy and political totalitarianism? In other words, are we to remain oblivious to the Islamist extremism that is a major sector of Islam?

Our authorities insist that Islam should not be condemned for it is, like all religions, possessed of moderates and radicals many of whom take things to the extreme and preach violence. Not so. The radicals of Christianity who preach violence comprise less than ½% of the religion because Jesus preached peace to all men. Islam’s violent radicals (the Islamists) comprise 10% of their religion because Muhammad preached violence toward the West.

What’s dangerous, however, is that a large number of the 90% “peaceful Muslims” are indifferent to and often sympathetic to the Islamist radicals who preach violence and promise that Jihad will revive the glories of earlier centuries. In polls around the world, 27% of Muslims feel this way. So radical, violent Islamism is far more potent than the 10% share of the religion it commands.

Moreover, Christian theologians revere free will and reason (handed down by Aristotle and Aquinas). Islam’s theologians denounce free will and reason as apostasy. See my article, Roots of Islamic Fanaticism.

We in the West must gather our senses about us and defend our cultures. And if we are to do so, we must challenge the philosophical poison of multiculturalism that today’s quislings in our academy and government promote. We must restore the rational immigration policy of “national origins” that prevailed in America prior to Ted Kennedy’s Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965.

Our pre-1965 “national origins” immigration policy permitted our authorities to pick and choose who would be allowed to enter the country. It chose in favor of those immigrants whose cultures and mores resembled ours. Thus it primarily chose European immigrants. This allowed for cultural stability to be integrated with freedom throughout the country.

In those days before liberal egalitarianism came to suffocate free Western societies, everyone understood that there were high and low cultures, high and low religions because there were high and low classes of humans. This was viewed as simple “common sense.”

Groupies for Statism

Today, however, all this has been lost. The overwhelming majority of Americans quiver in face of the egalitarian PC monster. Their natural courage and individualism have been stripped from them in the schools making them into dutiful groupies for the State desirous only of doing the bidding of its fanatical overlords and PC grotesques. Independence of thought and standing apart from the herd are no longer upheld as the honorable responsibilities of American citizens.

Consequently we are told by our President that we must allow tens of thousands of Muslim refugees to enter America and invade our neighborhoods with their theocratic idiocies and primitivism. Hillary and other liberals are demanding that we expand the number to 50,000 and even 100,000. We are told that our government authorities will screen all Muslim refugees admitted, that we will be safe if only we listen to their “wisdom and experience.”

Yet there are no cooperative agencies in Syria for background checks of their refugees. Thus it is impossible to safely screen tens of thousands of Muslims and guarantee that no terrorists lurk among them. This is conveniently explained away with sophistry and lies.

Moreover scores of Muslims like Syed Farook and his wife, the instigators of the recent San Bernardino massacre, along with U.S. Army Major Nadal Hassan, the deranged officer who killed 13 people at Fort Hood, are already lurking in America because of indiscriminately open borders. They are susceptible to radical Islamist conversion because Muhammad calls repeatedly and emphatically for violence against the West throughout the Koran. Yet this is smirked at with contempt by White House spokesmen, and the PC media refuse to press the issue.

For verification of this, see the website, Islam: The Politically Incorrect Truth, which cites 109 verses in the Koran that preach war and violence against the West. This is not a religion of peace.

Thirty Governors have voiced objections to settling Syrian refugees in their states. But Washington will overrule such rebellious common sense and stuff the Syrians wherever the Feds wish. If necessary, tanks and armored troops will accompany them. This is the insanity of false ideology, the insanity of liberalism. It drives decent men to suspend rational thought and turn on their own kind.

Horrific race and religious wars are coming to America. Beware, it’s only a matter of time. Big Brother is obsessed with building an egalitarian, multicultural society of every ethnic and religious group the world has to offer, no matter how primitive and irrational they are.
