They Want To Steal Our History

 by Al Benson Jr.

Member, Board of Directors, Confederate Society of America


The Deep State and the radical left, globalists all, are trying to steal our history. They do not want us to know our history or understand where we came from and why. They realize, more than we do, that those that have no grasp of their history, culture, and heritage have no real future. They seek to control our history so they can control our future. If they control our future then they control  our destiny and then, like all idolaters, they can shape us in their own leftist image.

One way they do this is with false history, like this horrible 1619 Project that is currently used in many public schools now. Donald Trump became aware of this program and sought to deny funding to public schools that used it. I don't know how he made out with that and the recent election that was stolen from him will deny him and opportunity to pursue it further.

Interestingly enough, a writer of Western fiction seems to have had more of a grasp of the importance of real history than most people in our day do. I am referring to the late Elmer Kelton. He wrote mostly about West Texas. He grew up on a ranch in West Texas where his father was a ranch foreman so Kelton knew the history of his area. He was well acquainted with the kind of people and places he wrote about. He was part of it and it was part of him, which is as it should be.

His comments about history were insightful. In his autobiography Sandhills Boy he wrote: "South of the ranch headquarters, in the middle of an open pasture, was  the grave of a cowboy killed by horse thieves many years before. Riding by that solemn place, I was reminded of the old song, 'Bury Me Not On The Lone Prairie.'  It certainly was lone and lonely.  That grave, and the stories the cowboys told, awakened a wonder that stayed with me. They made history come alive. They provided a living connection between past and present, a realization that events of a hundred years ago and more still affect our daily lives, our beliefs and attitudes.  They are part of who and what we are. The more we know about them, the better we know ourselves."

Whether we realize it or not, our history affects us because we are all a part of it. I remember, years ago now being told about a man in the South who said "the past is not dead. It is not even past." There is a certain sense in which he was right. The only time history is boring is when it is taught in school and is limited to dates and personalities whose history we do not know. General so and so fought a battle at such and such a place in 1864--period! That is boring history. To make history come alive we need to ask why he fought the battle and what did he believe. 

More and more as I have studied history, I have found that Elmer Kelton's view of it is accurate. Our history is part of all of us. I had a Confederate ancestor from North Carolina who was a captain in a North Carolina infantry regiment. Why did he fight? Did he go to war just so he could keep his slaves? I never read about him having any. Or did he go to war because his state was invaded? He lost part of one leg at Spotsylvania. Did he go through that particular hell so he could preserve slavery? I rather doubt that. The majority of the men that fought for the Confederacy did not own slaves and who in his right mind would be willing to endure four years of battle and death so his neighbor up the road apiece could keep his twenty slaves?  Yet this is the false narrative we are asked to believe because leftist "historians" so called continue to throw it in our faces and teach it to our children. It's balderdash, which is a nice way of saying it's bovine fertilizer, not history.

And this false narrative has shaped generations of our kids, both North and South. This fake history is used as an excuse to tear down our monuments and desecrate our flags and the Marxists among us love to have it so. As long as they can foist this claptrap on us we do not learn our real history or why our ancestors really fought. When we are taught accurate history that is reflected in how we think today. When we are lied to about our history and truth is denigrated, that affects us also, and not in a positive way.

So those closet leftists that crawl around among us teach us false history and that affects how we view our ancestors and our past and the culture they bequeathed to us. If the leftists can teach us skewed history then that affects how we view our past then they get to decide for us what our future will be because we will not understand our past.

History is not some dead thing that has no effect on us in our lives. History affects how we think and how we view life and what we will teach our kids about their past. If we let the Marxist element control our future via false history then neither we or our kids have any real future. Our future is really their future--a Marxist future.

Years ago when I was in a shop getting some printing done I inadvertently ended up in a conversation with a man that said to me "Communism liberates people." My reply to his foolishness was "May my children never live under the 'liberty' you promote." Now, with a Harris/Biden duo waiting in the political wings my children may yet end up living under some sort of communist "liberty"--something I have fought against most of my life. I sought to teach my kids accurate history. I guess we will have to wait and see who tries to teach their children history.

"They KNOW NOT What They Do"

"They know not what they do" the words of Jesus the Christ from the cross.

Or do they?
First Christ said: "Forgive them, Father (God)!
Do the PONS/ACTIVISTS actually know which subversive leaders are putting them up to it?

Blind? Stupid? Are the not so blind leading the truly blind? That's probably the question we should be asking first, and the second question--who are the not so blind???

Subversive forces in this country are hell-bent on destroying what God (and our forefathers) helped to create with much blood, sweat and tears, over many years...(1776-2018)--242 years.

We shouldn't let them get away with it. "Them" are the cruel leaders of the blind and ignorant (wet behind the ears) individuals who have never learned their history (thanks to their public school "educations" nor do they even care. Anything before the Beatles is totally irrelevant to them.

"They" are ignorant like sheep led to the slaughter, young people, ages 16-25, who have NO IN-vested interest in our country...just what their subversive leaders are counting on...people who are young, excitable, and with NO sound foundation of history or any kind of patriotism. Most of them have no clue about our real history--and they don't care to learn! Many are just the drop-outs of life, the ones who have tuned out and dropped out--the impressionable and the gullible--who seem to think they are all brilliant! However, ignorance is what the purveyors of subversion are depending on to enable them to carry out their subversive and covert activities. And it's happening now--right before our eyes. Democrats (and some Republicans) are desperate and are taking desperate measures..i.e. Desperados!

With the influx of illegal immigrants, the intent is to destroy our culture by FLOODING our country with many NON-Christian attitudes and UN-controlled individuals who have NO intent to assimilate into our culture, or learn our language, which is for legal immigrants imperative.

This Movement is not just a fun game for the power brokers behind the insurrection in the streets. They are in it for keeps. For them the USA is something to be torn down!!!

The Socialist/Marxist/Communist Movement did NOT just happen by accident; it has been ongoing since before our UN"Civil War". Control of our educational system has been THE MAJOR PART  of our problem since then.

By NOT re-enforcing REAL history in the public schools, the National Education Association is intentionally allowing Negligence to exist.

Ask yourself why so few of our young people (from the age of 10 and clear through 50) know any real history. Not even attorneys, most Congressmen...Senators and Representatives. Those who are supposed to represent our interests DON'T.

Fortunately Rush Limbaugh, Michael Savage, Sean Hannity, Laura Ingraham, Joe Pags and other people in the alternate media do. They know what's going on out here--all the stuff the mainstream media thinks we are better off not knowing about. So we are informed. But, we (the vast majority of us) are allowing this charade to continue.  People are being hurt in so many ways because NO leader (but Trump) is stepping up and Stopping the Out of control Left.  Leaders, where are you???

Here Are The Facts

by Sammy Schwartz

DO NOT clump me with those stupid, offensive idiots who did NOT have the slightest CLUE what they were supposed to protest (either for or against) when they chose to venture to the town of Charlottesville, Virginia.

NOW, let us "Set the record STRAIGHT." And this is for ALL media and commentators, as well as Senators, Representatives, Governors, Mayor, etc., etc., etc.

1. It has to do with our Southern Cultural Heritage... 
   a) not the issue of slavery,
   b) not white vs. black Americans
   c) not the Confederate Flag, which
     1. displays the St. Andrews Cross
     2. has the sacred meaning that a man, many years ago was crucified sideways
         by his own choice,
    d) is an issue of "tearing down" our heritage (statutes, NOT statues). The statues of
        NOT of people who hated;  they were those who knew The Truth of the reason for the War.
        It was NOT about keeping slaves in bondage;  it was trying to keep what land they rightfully owned.
        (Remember, the South was invaded).
     e) Many blacks (knowing the real reason for the War) also, smartly fought for the South.

2. The UN-civil War was what "the Yankees"--promoters of "Federal Supremacy" fought for, and
     it was here that the 1860s Media turned their attention. The War was truly about "money" the love of
     which is the root of all evil. The South had become more wealthy than the North could tolerate, even
     with the excessive tariffs, so they used any excuse to MAKE war. Actually, the NORTH was the
     aggressor, regardless  of what "The Media of 1860" said.

3. THEY LIED! Back then, there was NO alternative media, no live "talk radio." (To verify what I have           been telling you) please read Lincoln's Marxists by Al Benson Jr. and Donnie Kennedy.

4. Heritage and culture are concerns noted in the Communist Manifesto by Karl Marx. The Manifesto           lists and recommends how to destroy any country they are mentally attacking. And, there are those in       our own midst who intend to destroy what our founding fathers: George Washington and Thomas                 Jefferson, along with many other patriots who wrote and endorsed our Great Constitution gave us.

5. Now, Saul Alinsky (Marxist and destroyer of freedom) has  disciples who are trying to undermine that       great document  (Constitution) by staging all kinds of protests, often funding both sides of the issue.           Specifically, they are intending to DESTROY our culture, with the SOLE intention: to undermine our           wonderful heritage, and, in effect, Our Constitution.

6. For your information, both sides in the Charlottesville protest were funded by George Soros money,             delivered by Robert Creamer, who is the husband of Leftist Congresswoman Jan Schaowsky.

7. These people are the REAL HATERS, and there is a clear and deliberate intent on their part to destroy       our culture and our form of government--and our form of government IS a Republic, as stated in the             Pledge of Allegiance. And we true Patriots want a "nation under God--with liberty and justice for all.

8. The Liberals (and the Marxists) redundancy here, sorry, are against us on every issue.  And they can't       handle what Trump stands for and stands up for: GOOD PEOPLE!

Pertinent Phraseology for a Prostitute Press

Our two commentators on the political scene now offer a few observations on a man who spent big money trying to get Hillary elected as the next dictator, pardon me, I meant President. Just a slip of the fingers on the keyboard. It happens. Hillary's loss cost him big bucks, but not to worry--he plans on getting it back--one way or another. But it occurred to our commentators that lots of people might not be aware of this man's background, which the mainstream media has determined that you should know as little as possible about.
Al Benson Jr.

Pertinent Phraseology for a Prostitute Press

by Schwartz & Viscount

Let's look at some real history. The character herein to be described is not an actor, in the Hollywood sense, (except that he fits in with Hollywood's phony-baloney dudes). He's got more money than most of them have, but, like them, he seems to envision himself at the "conscience of the world." Here is a man who openly admits he has no belief in God, is not religious in any sense, yet he seems to feel he has the right to tell the rest of the world how they should live (preferably in ways that will make him and his friends lots of money). He doesn't even travel under his original name anymore.

The sterling individual we are referring to is Gyorgy Schwartz (no relation whatever to one of the authors of this article) and he was born in Hungary in 1930. According to an article on http://www.nowtheendbegins.com written by Geoffrey Grider on November 15, 2016, Gyorgy was Hungarian born and "His father, Tivador, was a fervent practitioner of the Esperanto language invented in 1887, and designed to be the first global language, free of any national identity. The Schwartz's (who) were non-practicing Jews, changed the family name to Soros in order to facilitate assimilation into the Gentile population, as the Nazis spread into Hungary during the 1930s." Gyorgy (now George) has an interesting background, some of which he sometimes neglects to mention.

According to an article by William Jasper on http://www.thenewamerican.com  for January 4, 2017: "...Soros neglects to mention some very important facts in his biological reflection, such as that he helped Hitler and the Nazis confiscate the wealth and belongings of his fellow Jews. What's more, he feels no guilt, regret, or remorse about being a Holocaust helper, because, as he put it, if he hadn't done it 'someone else would be taking it away anyhow.'  However, he undoubtedly regrets being so candid about all of this during an interview with the CBS 60 Minutes program back in 1998. He must have realized afterward how ghoulishly cold-blooded and inhuman his words and demeanor appeared, and how violently that clashed with the philanthropic humanitarian image he was crafting for himself.  For some reason the CBS video of the program disappeared, and that disappearance has been the subject of much speculation concerning possible legal threats and/or financial inducements by Soros to keep the damning footage buried." However, somehow, the old video has been popping up on You Tube videos recently. We watched one just today before we started working on this article. CBS has supposedly been trying to take all of these down, due to copyright challenges, but as fast as they get it down one place it turns up somewhere else. Inquiring minds really do want to know. This all gives George a rather bad name and the mainstream media has really been trying to tamp it down. Seems they have not been totally successful.

If you don't see what's happening "World Wide" and being aided by America's "Prostitute Press" (out and out liars to us from many aspects, then you have been "suckered, schmoozed, and simply taken in by our Presstitute  Pimps, who learned their journalism in elite "Ivy-League" institutions of High-Jacked learning. And many of the professors who taught them (and who are supposed to be educators)  turn out instead to be indoctrinators  of Marxism (meaning anything subversive to a republican form of government.  History seems to be no barrier to their (especially Soros') intention, which is the creation of some sort of New World Order that destroys any and everything upon which this country is founded and grounded upon--especially if it is Biblically based. If we continue to allow these influences to persist without exposing them, then, at best, we have bought into their warped belief system.

The current wave of internal terror now being demonstrated and expressed in the United States is fully intended to destroy our faith, way of life, culture, and our civilization.

If you are naive enough to think Black Lives Matter (Black Live Marxists) or any of these other groups have civilized intentions in what they are doing, then you have not been paying attention. They have not convinced we truly "civil" Americans that these groups have displayed anything more than UN-civilized behavior. Polite and courteous is NOT their intent. Helping bring down the government and our way of life is. These people are RUDE, CRUDE, AND SOCIALLY UNACCEPTABLE both in word and deed and many of them are actually being paid to work at cultural destruction. One might well ask the question--how many of these groups does George Soros fund? How many has he funded? How much has he spent doing this?

They are being paid, (by Soros and others) to destroy, disrupt, and devastate. And who even knows how to contact them in order to employ their "talents" better than those who are part of the Community Organizer community?  We had one of that type as president recently. Remember him???

Do you think these paid thugs are picked randomly? If so, then you have your head in the sand.

If you feel so led, please comment on what we have said here--as long as your commentary is civil and not what we have seen displayed by the type of groups discussed here. And pass this information along to your friends. More people need to be aware.

So Who Is Advising Trump To Soften Up?

by Al Benson Jr.

I have to admit, that unless Mr. Trump changes the direction he is starting to go in it is going to look to a lot of his supporters as if he is in the process of selling out to the Ruling Establishment he told us all he despised. I have to wonder who is working to move him in this direction. I also have to wonder who is giving him the advice he seems to be taking, whereby he is being "nice" to those that tried to stab him in the back and, in the process, forgetting his pledge to "drain the swamp." It seems he is hanging around with a whole bunch of the folks that filled up the swamp to begin with and his association with them will be a major preventative factor in the swamp being drained. I'd hate to think that all that talk was just talk. I thought better of him than that.

He is touting Mitt Romney, one of the instigators of the "Never Trump" movement for his Secretary of State. If ever anyone had "One World Government" credentials it is Mitt Romney. The only other hanger on in the Trump camp that could outdo Romney there is Newt Gingrich and now I am beginning to what what political plus Mr. Gingrich is waiting to be awarded. Pastor Chuck Baldwin recently stated in an article on http://www.lewrockwell.com  that Newt Gingrich "...is the quintessential insider, globalist,  and establishment hack."

Mr. Trump just nominated Nikki Haley, the South Carolina turncoat governor as his UN ambassador. That move ain't going over real well in the deep South where Ms. Haley was responsible for starting last year's cultural genocide campaign against all things Confederate. I wouldn't appoint this lady as dog catcher. I'm afraid she's try to "Yankeeize" my dog.

Trump made a good appointment with Jess Sessions and I have no problem with Stephen Bannon. His former association with Breitbart would indicate that he has knowledge of the world situation. I don't know enough about this lady he just tapped for the Education Department except that she is supposed to be in favor of charter schools and education vouchers to let parents send their kids to whatever schools they want, religious or otherwise. But I do question that if Christian parents go that route, how long will it be before the feds start telling them what they can teach their kids because, after all, the feds are helping to fund their education? Better if Christian parents would just reject the vouchers.

When we home schooled our kids it was a sacrifice and we were always short of money and we did get scholarship help on several occasions, but never from the feds! The idea of taking federal money did not occur to us at any point. Having seen what the feds did, indirectly, to textbook protesters in West Virginia, the thought of tainted, controlling federal bucks to help educate our kids was anathema to us.

And as long as I am analyzing what Mr. Trump is doing, I might as well put my two cents in regarding his new position on the Clintons. He told us in one of the presidential debates that if he were president Hillary would be in jail. So what happened to change his mind? Now he's telling us that he doesn't want to hurt the Clintons because "they are good people." He's got to be kidding, right? The Clintons would cut his throat for a quarter any day of the week and hand him the change and if he lives in the real world he has to know that. So what's all this "they are good people" stuff? He's starting to sound like a politician--God forbid!

The people that voted for Trump voted for him because they were sick and tired of the corruption and the public getting shafted by the Establishment and Trump sounded like that's what he was all about. What happens if the public finds out they've been shafted yet again?

It's beginning to sound like if Mr. Trump is going to "drain the swamp" he will probably end up doing it a thimble-full at a time--the same principle as someone dumping a cupful of water in the Gulf of Mexico to raise the water level.

Pastor Chuck Baldwin has urged Trump supporters that they cannot go to sleep, that they need to hold his feet to the fire on those promises he made. If his candidacy awakened the electorate, they need to stay awake and alert and watch what he does just like they would watch what any other candidate did. Pastor Baldwin said: "I tell you, again: this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to change the course of a nation. Frankly, if this opportunity is squandered, there likely will not be another one in most of our lifetimes." This is sound advice and we better heed it because the lives and culture we help to preserve will be our grandchildren's.  

Update! According to a World News Daily article I just read it seems that the Republican Establishment has conned Mr. Trump into taking the position that climate change may now be a "man-made" issue, therefore their agenda and that of the other socialists on this issue will be preserved in a Trump administration. Bit by bit we see Mr. Trump backing off the issues he campaigned on and going the route the Establishment wants him to. SOMEONE HAS GOTTEN TO HIM  and is in the process of neutralizing what he claimed he wanted to do.

K. I. S. S.

                                                  This election is NOT about Hillary
                                                   or Donald
                                        SO
                                                 Let Us All
                             Keep It Simple Stupid!
                                   It Is About
                              THE SOVEREIGNTY
                                                        OF   OUR 
                                          UNITED STATES OF
                                                AMERICA
                     Sovereignty means: OUR INDEPENDENCE
                                              (Declared in 1776)
                              We DO NOT want to be ruled by:
                  ONE-WORLD-controlled Government!
                     (That is what this election is all about)
                                        The vision that
                        Hillary AND the MAIN-STREAM MEDIA
                                              have for  America 
                                                      IS:
                                    THAT of
                          An America Controlled by a WORLD
                          COURT, under the control of the
                                             United Nations
                 which will tell us what we can & can NOT DO
                 as opposed to our sovereignty under God.
                  Below is an outline/list of what that means and how it is intended to affect us:
       1. The Second Amendment--Our right to bear arms as                   guaranteed in the Constitution--no matter what government 
       says.
     2. Illegal immigration--A country without borders is no country
         at all. If you want a place in the United States come in legally
         and earn the right to vote and participate.
     3. The Supreme Court--We need a  Supreme Court that will 
          interpret the Constitution according to its original intent
          and not invent new interpretations as it goes along. We
          need justices that will protect the human rights of the
          unborn and not destroy them through "choice."
      4. Sovereignty and dominion (under God)--as opposed to rule
          by the United Nations or some other World Government
          entity.
      5. The income tax and employment--Our present income tax
          was taken from the pages of The Communist Manifesto.               We need a fairer method of taxation and a business climate              that will guarantee that jobs will stay in this country and 
           not be relocated overseas.
       6. Freedom of religion--Which means not only the freedom to          worship according to the dictates of our consciences but               also freedom to practice our faith in the marketplace of our
           everyday lives.  We do NOT need freedom FROM religion,
           which is what is being forced on us nowadays.
       7. We need family values as opposed to "community values."
            It does not "take a village to raise a child"--it takes a caring
            and loving parents and family--a family as defined in the 
            Holy Bible.
        8. We need freedom and personal responsibility--as opposed
             to Hollywood's values and attitudes.

Agenda 21, the South, and then the rest!

by Al Benson Jr.

Awhile back I talked to a man that lives just down the street from us. He has bought some property out on the bayou and when he retires he'd like to move out there, put up a little house, and do some fishing. I wish him well, but if the United Nations, our federal government, and their economic "planners" have their way (and unfortunately they usually do) it will never happen.

Their plan for this man, and for the rest of us, is not that any of us own any private property anywhere out in the country or anywhere else no matter how much we might like to. The glorious plan for all of us, unless we wake up, is a little two-by-twice apartment in some big city mega-complex along with everybody else where we are limited to traveling within the confines of the city we have been assigned to. No automobiles or pickup trucks any further than the city they assign us to because if we do anymore than that it strains the "economic sustainability" of our state, the country, and the entire world--and so we must be severely limited in everything we do (and say and think) for the environmental "good" of the entire world. If you are tempted to do a little reading (before it becomes outlawed)  check out some of the sources where you see this term "economic sustainability" on the Internet or in the "news" media and you will be looking at sources, people, articles, that have been strongly influenced by the United Nations Agenda 21 program.

You say you've never heard of that? I'm not surprised. It's not exactly a priority for the "news" people unless they are encouraging different states, cities, etc. to sign up and become part of it. Other than that they seem to "know nothing" about it. In an article this size there is no way I can give you everything. The best I can do is to try to hit a few high spots for you that will, hopefully, encourage you to start checking out just what Agenda 21 is on your own.

I started assembling a file of articles on this United Nations aberration  awhile back. Anything having to do with the United Nations concerns me because this is the group that is supposed to lead the way into the glories of One World Government for the planet. If you want to find out where the United Nations is going check out the background of a man named Alger Hiss on the Internet.

I found a very informative article on http://www.thegoodmanchronicle.com from back on March 24, 2014 which said, in part, that: "Agenda 21 is based around the idea that a world-wide system must be set up, to save the planet from humans, which are destroying it with their cars, air conditioners, refrigerators, and all around high standards of living. The planners of the Agenda want to have complete control over all the resources in the world, in order to implement 'sustainable' or 'smart' growth, which includes the reduction of the standard of living of people in first world countries. For this plan to work, people must be made to believe that a reduction of their standard of living is good, and is being done to protect the environment, preserve resources for the next generation, reduce carbon emission, prevent climate change, and other wonderful sounding goals...To achieve the environmental goals of Agenda 21, one of the actions that needs to be taken by governments throughout the world, is to move people off of their privately-owned land and into special collectively-owned communities..." Any of this sound familiar to any of you? It's little more than an updated version of the "workers paradise" they had in the Soviet Union before Communism supposedly fell--and it's all a pile of bovine fertilizer!

No private property, no land, especially no guns, (you won't need them in the city anyway) and no freedom to travel. Your car or pickup truck will have been "confiscated" for the public good because you will have no freedom to travel, actually no freedom for much of anything. Oh yes, you will be totally free to obey all the UN and federal edicts--or else! What a Kountry!!!

The article quoted above is not the only sources for this information. Writer Henry Lamb says in Agenda 21--What Is It? How Did It Get Here  that: "(Agenda 21) is a set of policy recommendations designed to reorganize global society around the principles of environmental protection,social equity, and what is called 'sustainable' economic development. At the heart of the concept of sustainable development, is the assumption that government must manage society to ensure that human activity conforms to these principles." Doesn't that sound warm and fuzzy?

Even an article in The Blaze, which I don't always agree with by any means, got this one right.  It noted that support for Agenda 21 didn't come only from the United Nations.  It also came from "wealthy donors like billionaire George Soros, whose Open Society gave ICLEI (International Council for Local Environmental Initiatives) a $2.1 million grant in 1997 to support its local Agenda 21 Project. The financing was used to promote the project in the United States." You have to wonder how much of the UN propaganda is promoted in public schools in this country. Well, actually you don't. Just look up UNESCO on the Internet and see what they do regarding public schools in this country. You won't be pleased. I can recall seeing tons of pro-Un stuff in public school when I went, and that is a long, long time ago. I have no sane reason to suppose  the volume of it has slowed given the Marxist predilections  of our federal government.

So what does this mean for the South (and for the country as a whole for that matter)? It means that if this monstrosity ever gets enacted my friend up the street can kiss his retirement home out on the bayou goodbye. He will be informed by some federal commissar that he will be much better off living in a miniature apartment in the local ghetto with the rest of the proles. His pickup truck?  He won't need it, he won't be going much of anyplace anymore. His guns? Forget those! The entire country will be one huge "gun free zone" except for the feds and their friends in the underworld. Fishing? Don't make me laugh! Where will he fish--in the gutters of the streets in his ghetto after we've had a toad strangler? His private property out on the bayou will have been "awarded" to some apparatchik from the UN as a reward for keeping ordinary folks away from it.

Folks, maybe you ought to consider checking out some of the stuff on the Internet regarding Agenda 21. A couple good sites to start off with are www.whatisagenda21.net  and  www.thenewamerican.com  especially an article by Alex Newman back in May, 2013. Oh you will find some sites out there that will "laud and magnify" the United Nations and all it seeks to do,but if you are discerning you will be able to come up with some of those that tell you the real truth. And as for your Confederate flags and your "Don't Tread on Me" flags--forget those. There will be no place in the local ghetto for such things. In fact if people sit around long enough and work hard at doing nothing, there won't even be a faint memory of such things anymore--and everyone will learn to love Big Brother, whether he lives in Washington or New York, or both.

Evolution and Spiritualism--Darwin and Wallace

by Al Benson Jr.

I can remember, years back now, hearing a preacher in West Virginia talk about evolution.  He was, as they say "agin it" and he gave some pretty fair country reasons for his position. One thing he said that I never forgot was that the theory of evolution absolves man from any accountability to God for his actions. If man is nothing more than a highly "evolved" animal then he is accountable to no one for his actions, no matter how good or evil they may be. He is just doing what "comes naturally" since he has no creator. If that's the case, you have to wonder why so many people get mad over what Hitler and Stalin did. If they are responsible to no one and to no God then how can anyone condemn their actions? The Illuminist forebears  of the perpetrators of the French Revolution were absolutely shocked at the thought that they might, somehow, be responsible for their actions.The very thought was anathema to them.

So you can see that, among those that do not care to be judged for their deeds, that the theory (and it is only a theory) of evolution would have a particular appeal.

You always hear about "Darwin's theory of evolution" but the "history" books, if such they can even be called anymore don't say much about Dr. Alfred Russel Wallace, who might well be called Darwin's alter ego.

According to an article on http://evolution.berkeley.edu  Darwin and Wallace worked together on a theory they had both come up with independently. Darwin started working on his "natural selection" theory in the 1830s and kept at it for about twenty years, during which time he "corresponded briefly" with Wallace. At a certain point, Wallace decided to ask Darwin's help to publish his own ideas about evolution, so he sent Darwin a copy of his theory in 1858, which, "to Darwin's shock, nearly replicated Darwin's own." This is about where most histories stop.  There is, however, a little more information about Dr. Wallace we should all be aware of--and maybe that's why it's usually left out.

According to the informative book To The Victor Go The Myths And Monuments by Arthur R. Thompson, Spiritualism played a part in all this. Mr. Thompson notes, on page 203, that: "Spiritualism began in the U.S. and spread to Britain among the Owenites. One of England's most prominent spiritualists was Dr. Alfred Russel Wallace.  He was the co-originator with Darwin on the natural selection theory of evolution.  Wallace was also involved in socialist theory and activism. His youthful education that started him on this path included reading the works of Robert Owen and Thomas Paine. In other words, there was a socialist influence on the development of the theory of Darwin, and it was tied to spiritualism."

Ann Braude in Radical Spirits, on page 158, confirms Wallace's ties to spiritualism when she writes: "In 1876, Alfred Russel Wallace's defense of Spiritualism from the chair of the Anthropological Section of the British Association made it an issue in the transatlantic scientific community."

Mr. Thompson, in his book, made another interesting observation on page 262 where he said: "Since all Marxists profess a belief in Darwin, it is strange that people do not see through the rhetoric advocating justice for all races embodied in communist organizations' propaganda. How can Marxists advocate equality when they believe in a Darwinian system that says that all men are not equal? It becomes obvious that Marxist leaders are lying about what they stand for in order to enlist the gullible, bleeding-heart activist."

Now I am no expert on all the in's and out's of evolution. Some folks I know have probably forgotten more about it than I will ever know, but just looking at this background would make the whole proposition a little dicey for me. As a Christian I can't buy evolution because it leaves God and our responsibility to Him out. The church my wife and I attend doesn't believe it either. I realize that, among the "scientific" community that makes us anachronisms or Neanderthals or whatever. Well, that's tough. I've been called worse and I expect to be again--just don't call me late for supper!

When you add all this together--the spiritualist and socialist influence, then this becomes the shakiest of propositions. Anything with spiritualist and socialist connections does not bode well for Christians or for the Church and when you look at the fact that some form of Darwin's theory is, basically, the only theory allowed to be discussed in government schools you have to realize that the fact they are not willing to debate or discuss anything else means that this theory is the accepted socialist dogma they plan to teach your kids. That thought, alone would make me, if I still had school age children, want to secede from the public school system. So think about all of this--and more importantly, pray about it.

Southern Baptists Cave In To Cultural Marxists--so what else is new?

by Al Benson Jr.

Well, on the issue of the Southern Baptist Convention caving in to the cultural Marxists regarding the Confederate flag I can't say that I am at all happy about it, but on the other hand neither am I overly surprised. Most churches today don't even begin to recognize cultural Marxism for what it is--Marxism taken to a whole new level, and what's more, most couldn't care less. As long as they can conduct some sort of a service on Sunday morning they don't much worry about the rest of it.

The Russian Orthodox Church in the Soviet Union conducted morning services through most of the time the Communists remained in apparent power and the church hierarchy was loaded with KGB agents who made sure that the Sunday faithful were fed the Party line. They may have been thoroughly propagandized each week, but they did have their Sunday service, if such it could be called.

I often wonder, after a few of the churches we've attended over the years, how much difference there really is. When it comes to what happens out in the world most Christians are totally naive, couldn't care less, and are happy to have it so. No real responsibility for the culture that way except to complain when it gets so anti-Christian they can't stand it anymore. That they might have done something to prevent that never once occurs to them. Churches in this country have been feeding on the tainted bread of cultural Marxism since the end of the War of Northern Aggression and the task of the cultural Marxists in the seminaries and among the clergy has been to make sure they learned to like it. They have mostly succeeded.  And so the decision of the SBC regarding the Confederate battle flag comes as no real surprise. I would have been pleasantly surprised had they voted to leave it alone, but in my heart of hearts I guess I realized that would not happen.

An article in The Dallas Morning News  by Hannah Wise, on June 14th, said: "The Confederate battle flag is a symbol of racism that should not be used, Southern Baptists declared in a resolution approved Tuesday at their national meeting." The original proposal did stir some debate and prompted one call for the withdrawal of the proposal, but that wasn't going to happen. A milder version was floated later on and according to the Morning News it was "...not as strongly worded as the original and calls for Christians to 'discontinue' the flag's display." So the SBC calls for Christians to "discontinue the flag's display." Let them speak for themselves. Whatever Confederate flags I have, and I have several, will not be taken down to satisfy the whims of the cultural Marxist crowd that has as its agenda the total destruction of all Southern, Confederate, and Christian culture, and those Christians that give in to them in the name of "inclusiveness" are helping to seal the destruction of their culture and that of their children and grandchildren. And they will live to regret it someday, but by the time they wake up and realize what they have done it may well be way too late and they will discover that they have sold their heritage for a mess of socialist pottage which quite frankly, turns the stomach and sickens the soul.

I recall, years ago now, that I read where Richard Land, one of the leaders in the SBC at that time had been a member of the Council on Foreign Relations, the premier One World Government organization in this country. I have often wondered if what Mr. Land did as a member of the CFR had any effect on his denominational affiliation and its program. You all be the judges of that.

I can't speak for others, but if I belonged to the SBC I would seriously think of looking for another church, one that was willing to leave the symbols of my culture alone--most especially when those symbols have their foundation in Christianity. One has to wonder, given the intellectual and historic softness so apparent in most churches today, when some cultural Marxist person or group will come along and, with a little persuasive language, get Christians to denounce the cross of Christ because of its "non-inclusiveness" in the society around it.

Southern Baptist Convention To Vote Next Week On Resolution To Condemn Confederate Battle Flag

by Al Benson Jr.

That was the headline on the article that a friend sent me just this morning (June 10th). The Southern Baptist Convention is the second largest denomination in the country, right behind the Roman Catholics.

My friend, who is Baptist, is urging all those that are Southern Baptists to contact their ministers and tell them to oppose this resolution. My friend stated that this resolution is: "straight from the NAACP handbook." I don't doubt him for a minute. He has had past experience dealing with the NAACP and realizes that trying to talk reasonably with them is an exercise in futility. They have a cultural Marxist agenda and being reasonable with those whose culture they are trying to destroy is not part of that agenda.

This resolution to have the Southern Baptists condemn the Confederate battle flag has been couched in terminology that is supposed to promote "inclusiveness and healing." Anyone who has read any of these "resolutions" before knows what a farce that is and that racial healing is the absolute last thing all of this promotes--and it was never intended to. That's basically cultural Marxist language for the church to cave in and give into the desires of a small minority of dedicated leftists. This has nothing whatever to do with the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ and with what the church is supposed to be doing.

This sort of thing has been done before in other smaller denominations where leftist radicals try to get churches to condemn a part of their heritage and to completely omit the use of words like "Confederation" because they are deemed too "hurtful" to offended parties. Once the flags or offending terms are done away with the "offended" parties move on to other churches to promote the same cultural Marxist shell game somewhere else. Sadly, most Christians never seem to get it!

So I pray that our Baptist brethren will make a point of contacting their ministers now and tell them to oppose this--as the meeting where this is to be done will be held on June 14-15. Let's hope that enough people will do this that it will make a difference.

They Want Your Votes But Leave Your Flags At Home Please!

by Al Benson Jr.

Well, just last week the "conservative" House in Sodom on the Potomac voted to ban Confederate flags from flag poles in national cemeteries even on days when they had heretofore been allowed. The vote was 265-159.  The promoter of this choice bit of cultural Marxism  pontificated on the passage of his bill, observing that the flag represents "racism, slavery and division." Now where do you suppose he came up with that mouthful? Sounds like he's been reading the NAACP playbook on how to destroy Southern heritage in one easy lesson.

And you thought the ethnic cleansing was all over! Haven't figured out the game plan yet have you?

Last year some of us told you this would happen, that when the cultural Marxists got enough resistance they would back off for awhile until your ardor cooled and you took down your Confederate flags that you had put up in protest last summer. Well, lots of you all cooled down, took your flags down, and proceeded to go back to sleep. Eternal vigilance you didn't have and the cultural Marxists realized that and knew all they had to do was wait until you fell asleep at the switch again and they could then clobber you anew and it would be that much harder for you to get back up and fight back again now like you did then. Folks, they have got this kind of thing down to a science while we're still playing games!

We have yet to begin to discern their tenacity and their agenda, but they already know that, after a certain amount of time we will tuck tail and go home, thinking it's all over, thinking we did our bit last year and now we can go back to the ball game or the bass fishing or whatever. Welcome to Round Two!

I've noticed here in North Louisiana that the number of Confederate flags flying has been drastically reduced in the past few months. The leftists backed off and we sat down and turned the boob tube back on and once we got fixated on it again they snuck up on us and kicked us in the stomach when our back was turned.

Now we are wondering what happened. We thought we'd done all this last year and now we've got to do it all over again you're telling us? That's what I am saying and not only that, we've got to do it all over again and keep on doing it!  That's part of our problem--no sticktoativity.  They've got it--we don't! And until we start to get it they are always going to win because they keep on with their agenda and after awhile we get tired and go home thinking we've done our bit, so lets let Leon (Trotsky) do it for awhile--and he does and then we find out we don't like that.

So the flags came down. So let's put them back up again this year--and this time leave them up! And let's start checking out those House critters that voted for this monstrosity. How many came from the South? Get a list of them and how they voted. I got one off http://www.gopusa.com  for May 19th. It's probably still up. Find our what your House critter did, how he/she/it, voted and if they voted for this horrendous bill then start informing people you know and start working to defeat them in the next election they have to run in. Expose their vote in letters to the editor, on Facebook, however you can. And keep on opposing and exposing what the cultural Marxists are trying to do to your culture. Don't get halfway through the Summer, stop to watch the All-Star game and then forget to get up again. The cultural Marxists in Washington and elsewhere are counting on your doing that, so learn to throw them a curve ball and keep up your resistance to what they are trying to do. The culture you save, with a bit of persistence might just be your own--and that of your children and grandchildren. They always have to be taken into the equation.

The cultural Marxists understand only one thing--resistance.  So lets start giving them some--on an ongoing basis.

Taking a Picture of a Confederate Flag Gets You Suspended From Your Public School For Two Days

by Al Benson Jr.

One of the major places where our next generation is being conditioned to accept the premises of cultural Marxism is the public school campus--and this holds true especially in the South.

An article I read just recently on http://freedomoutpost.com noted that the Ridgeview Middle School, which is part of the Round Rock Independent School District (that's in Texas, folks) has suspended seven students for what they feel is a horrendous crime, almost too terrible to mention. They took pictures of a Confederate flag, some of them selfies--at school no less. Folks, this has to be the crime of the century! Why every public school administrator in the state of Texas should go into immediate shock at the commission of a criminal act of such gigantic proportions. How dare they! This is simply beyond the pale. These students have just gone too far. Should prison sentences be meted out???

Andrew Birdwell, father of one of the students was slightly ticked off. He said the school had no right to suspend his son for two days and that he and his son deserve an apology from the school. But Mr. Birdwell, you just don't understand! You son had his picture taken with a CONFEDERATE FLAG! Do you understand the magnitude of such a crime? Obviously not or you wouldn't be asking for a well-deserved apology. And by the way, don't hold your breath waiting for one!

The school district released a statement, according to the Freedom Outpost article, that said there "were a series of incidents at school involving a group of students posing with a Confederate flag and speaking 'hateful language.' The district would not comment any further..." It's probably a good thing for them they didn't. Turns out that school officials had to admit that Birdwell's son didn't say anything hateful. He and the other students were currently learning "whatever version of Civil War history that school decides to teach its students." I thought that was an astute observation by Freedom Outpost. Seems that they might recognize that "whatever version of Civil War history" is being taught may not be altogether accurate.

The Freedom Outpost article duly noted Mr. Birdwell's reaction. He said "I called up there yesterday asking for a copy of the disciplinary action and (the principal's) was to me that the boys were holding up a Confederate flag and that is a sign of slavery." Really? Who taught the principal that? Did he learn it in teachers' college? Who says it's a sign of slavery--Al Sharpton, Je$$e Jackson, the kids' "history" textbook? Who? The article concluded with this thought: "What do you think these kids will learn from this event?" Interesting question. What will they learn?  What will the other kids in their class learn?  What will they all learn from their school principal?

They'll learn that Confederate flags can get you in trouble, so you are best to avoid them, no matter what they are all about. That's the cultural Marxist "history" lesson that's being taught here.

And what lesson should Anthony Birdwell learn from this "experience?"  He should learn that there is no freedom of thought or expression at public schools and that if his son shows any streak of independence of thought in coming years he will always be in trouble for thinking outside of the cultural Marxist box. Such is not permitted, and those that do will pay the price. Act or think differently from the rest of the sheeple and you will pay the price. I speak from experience.

Cultural Marxism, as practiced in public schools limits your field of thought and endeavor to those areas pre-approved by the cultural Marxist worldview. If you slip those traces you will have problems. He should also learn that, since this is the case, his son would be much better off in a private educational setting where state approved attitudes are not the only thing tolerated and where students can ask honest questions and get honest answers rather than politically correct dogma such as "the Confederate flag is a flag of slavery." No one who has done any real history homework honestly believes that, but if you repeat a lie often enough most folks who won't bother doing the homework will just unthinkingly grab onto it and rattle it off as gospel truth, which it ain't! Doing the homework should be encouraged. This is why Christian and home schooling efforts should be promoted.

If you really want to learn the truth about Confederate history you won't get it in public school, unless you happen to be one of the fortunate few to run across a dedicated history teacher who has been there so long that he has tenure and they can't get rid of him so they have to leave him alone. But you can bet the farm that after he's gone no more real history will be taught there and the person that replaces him will be into "social studies" rather than history.

We in the South (and other places as well) must begin to learn that our history and heritage will not be preserved for the next generation by sending our kids to public schools. That is a lesson for all of us. Let us pray God that enough will learn it to make a difference.

Now--Culturally Marxist Currency!

by Al Benson Jr.

Right after he was awarded the presidency of this country Obama said that he was going to "fundamentally transform" the United States. People could only guess what he meant by that, but those that knew anything of Obama's real background had deep suspicions that whatever he was going to do, it wasn't going to be good. Their suspicions have been more than justified. His transformation agenda (the agenda of his handlers) has been at work transforming the culture of this country. In fact, you could say that American culture has been emotionally and physically assaulted under "his" regime.

Now he and his handlers will further assault the culture by changing the design of the country's currency. You all have read by now about the new design of the twenty dollar bill and other bills that will be undergoing the Obamaite "transformation." The new currency designs to be foisted off on the public in the near future are living proof that the cultural Marxists will literally push their agenda in every area of our lives in an attempt to convert the sleeping public into accepting their pernicious theology.

A main "cornerstone"  of their theology is an abolitionism morphing into a "civil rights" movement. And it's all part of Karl Marx's "reconstruction of a social world" that Donnie Kennedy and I took note of in our book Lincoln's Marxists. 

Our august Secretary of the Treasury has dutifully informed us that the picture of Andy Jackson on our twenty dollar fiat currency bills will soon be replaced with a simply glowing portrait of Harriet Tubman, one of the movers and shakers in the "underground railway" before the War of Northern Aggression.

The Underground Railway, we have been told, was a system of "safe houses" from places in the South leading all the way up through the Northern states and into Canada. Supposedly friendly Southern abolitionists helped the escaping slaves to go north where a friendly, virtuous Northern population awaited their arrival with open arms. They teach some of this in many of the country's public school "history" texts.

Suffice it to say that "it ain't quite so." Writer Michael B. Chesson is a professor of history at the University of Massachusetts, Boston, and he specializes  in the history of the American "Civil War." He wrote an authoritative article for The Textbook League which appeared in their newsletter, Volume 12, Number One. Check out http://www.textbookleague.org  Professor Chesson noted several history books that promote this line about the Underground Railway and he noted the inaccuracies in all this regarding Harriet Tubman.

Suffice it to say there are culture-changing reasons why Ms Tubman is about to replace Andy Jackson on the twenty. Andy Jackson is not politically correct (culturally Marxist) and Ms. Tubman is. But they are going to keep Alexander Hamilton on the ten dollar bill. He is politically correct as the promoter of the first national bank, so the feds don't really want to remove him.

But even for that, they plan on making some changes to the ten spot, and to the five dollar bill as well, although I don't expect they will remove from the five dollar bill the portrait of the president who was a favorite of the Marxists and socialists.

The Treasury Secretary, Jack Lew, has said, in part: "The new $10 bill will honor the story and the heroes of the women's suffrage movement against the backdrop of the Treasury Building...The new $10 design will depict that historic march and honor Lucretia Mott, Sojourner Truth, Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, and Alice Paul for their contributions to the suffrage movement.?

It's interesting that Mr. Lew neglected to mention the connections of Susan B. Anthony, Lucretia Mott and Elizabeth Cady Stanton with the Spiritualist Movement during the latter part of the nineteenth century. If you can find a copy of the book Radical Spirits  by Ann Braude that will give you some insight into the Spiritualist Movement and its connections with the "women's rights" movement. The early feminist movement was riddled with Spiritualism. This is something else the "history" books have mostly forgotten to mention.

After neglecting to mention all that, Mr. Lew moved on to inform us that the new five dollar bill, in addition to keeping the portrait of the Marxist's favorite president, "will depict the historic events that have occurred at the Lincoln Memorial." Lew noted that, in 1963, Martin Luther King Jr. gave us his "I have a dream" speech at the Lincoln Memorial. Lew noted that, on the back of the five dollar bill, they will start featuring leaders of the civil rights movement. That should be interesting. I wonder which ones they will pick--they can't go too far in hardly any direction without bumping into someone with Communist connections, not that this would bother them, as long as the public at large can be kept in total ignorance about it. With our current public education system that should be no problem.

So we have finally gotten to the point where all the culturally Marxist leftist aberrations will now be commemorated as healthy and normal on our currency. Former history will be erased  and some of the prize agendas of the cultural Marxist Movement will be enshrined on the currency, complete with anti-counterfeit strips. What more could you ask for?

I just wonder what they will end up doing with the one dollar bill. After all, George Washington WAS a slave owner. Maybe, they can find some way to get someone like Pol Pot, the great Cambodian "liberator" onto the one dollar bill. Undoubtedly he would be quite acceptable to the cultural Marxist crowd and they could then get rid of that picture of that nasty old Southern slave owner. After all, we have had presidential candidates whose citizenship in this country has not been beyond question, so why not a known Communist on the one dollar bill? Our currency (notice I have not called it money) has become a major propaganda tool for the One World government crowd. Unfortunately, most people probably will not even notice. Unfortunately, their children and grandchildren will--and the knowledge won't be positive.

Our "Pre-Revolutionary" Mood

by Al Benson Jr.

In my "huntin' and peckin' on the Internet this week I came across an interesting article on www.zerohedge.com  which observed that the vast majority of Americans now believe that both political parties  are so hopelessly corrupt that they are unable to change anything for the better. The article, published on 2/8/16 stated that "This, in fact, is a revolution."

The article continued: "We've previously noted that polls show that Americans are in a 'pre-revolutionary' mood, that less than 1 in 5 Americans think that the government has the 'consent of the governed,' that government corruption tops the list of American fears (gee, we wonder why), and that 3 times as many Americans supported King George during the Revolutionary War than support our OWN Congress today." That statement, in itself, speaks volumes as to where the country is as I write this. As for King George looking better than Congress today--why not. At present Congress is busy stiffing the American public who pays their fat salaries and thanks to groups like the Council on Foreign Relations and the Trilateral Commission the Republican and Democratic parties are in bed with each other committing political fornication.

Republican and Democratic pollsters as well as independent political strategists have been reviewing polling date recently and they came up with some interesting results.

The zerohedge articled noted: "84% of all Americans believe political leaders are more interested in protecting their power and privilege than doing what is right. 81% believe the power of ordinary people to control our country is getting weaker every day as politicians of both parties fight to protect their own power and privilege...78% believe that the Democratic and Republican Parties are essentially useless in changing anything because both political parties are too beholden to special interests to create any meaningful change...74% see the biased and slanted coverage of the media as part of the problem...70% believe the government in Washington  does not govern with the consent of the people...They concluded: The country is in a pre-revolutionary moment. This election could mark the beginning of the end two-party duopoly in the United States." This is not the entire list by any means. There was more but I cannot reproduce all of it here. Check out the zerohedge article for yourselves.

I am not sure most folks totally grasp the truth that their government and both political parties, the media, many universities and other organizations, including some church denominations have all been infiltrated by the minions of One World Government. I would encourage folks to get on the Internet and check out the Council on Foreign Relations and the Trilateral Commission. Check out their origins, who is part and parcel of them, what connections they have to the United Nations. In that regard, check out Alger Hiss who was part of Roosevelt's State Department as well as a Communist Party member, all of which bothered Roosevelt not one little bit. There is a wealth of information out there IF you are willing to make the effort to check it out. It will begin to show you why we are in the mess we are in. There is an old book out there (old being 1962) by Dan Smoot called The Invisible Government.  I believe it's on the Internet. Check it out. If it's on there you can read it for free, along with Gary Allen's book None Dare Call It Conspiracy which is also on the Internet.

These books will give you insight into why neither political party will ever do anything to change the status quo. The American public is finally beginning to wake up, stretch and yawn, and wonder why they are being taken by those they elect to office to represent them and which don't, but rather represent those in favor of One World Government, which means, for Americans, the destruction of their God-given liberty. If we are not willing, or just too lazy, to defend and protect what God has given us then we deserve to lose it. And because we've been too lazy up to now all this has been happening. Maybe the "pre-revolutionary moment" we are experiencing right now is by the grace of God, giving us yet one more chance to repent of our national as well as our personal sins and seeking His guidance as to how we turn this situation around. And make no mistake, we will NOT do it in our own strength, but only with His help and guidance.

I know today many Christians will tell you because the Lord is in control just sit back and don't worry about it. Respectfully, I disagree with the part about sitting back and not worrying. The Lord is in control and quite probably He wants to exercise some of that control using us to do it. But if we won't have any of that, then He will find someone else to do it and we may not like the results.

Deleting History Is Now More Important Than Making It

by Al Benson Jr.

Just this evening I saw a sign from someone's Facebook page that read: "Deleting history is now more important than making it." In the context of today's politically correct (cultural Marxist) climate I could not do other than to agree with that sentiment. It so completely fits the attempted ethnic cleaning campaign now being perpetrated in this country, most particularly in the South.

Many of those who were responsible for making history in the South have been denounced by the cultural Marxists (who ARE Marxists) and their disciples are busily engaged in deleting any memory of them, their culture, their symbols and seeking to replace these with creatures of their own leftist trinity--liberals, socialists, and communists. I've heard talk, don't how accurate it is, that they now want to take Andrew Jackson off the twenty dollar bill and one possible replacement for him that has been suggested is Rosa Parks. Before the women of America cheer about that I would suggest they do  a little homework as to the background of Rose Parks. You can find info about her on the Internet. It hasn't all been removed yet and thrown down the memory hole. To say that Ms. Parks is a creature of the left is putting it mildly.

I just read an article in Chronicles magazine for June, 2015 written by Corresponding editor Wayne Allensworth which dealt with some of our recent past. Toward the end of the article Mr. Allensworth made a couple of  penetrating comments about the past (which in many instances really isn't the past).

In referring to the magazine he is writing for he says: "But Chronicles is not about simple nostalgia, for a remembered past is the only basis any of us can have for thinking about the future...The past, or the best of it, is our guide, for it is the only guide we can have, and informed by that past, we stand at least a chance of hanging on to some things of great value that should be kept and remembered, cultivated, and used again as the ongoing disaster in progress plays out."

Think about it this way--if the cultural Marxists manage, here in the South, to take away your real past and substitute for it some Marxist appendage you would never recognize, how will that affect your children and grandchildren when what they need to know about their past is no longer available? You see there is a generational aspect to all this ethnic cleansing that most folks, even Christians, have not been trained or taught to think about. If the past is part of your guide to the future and you have no real past except what has been foisted upon you by the leftist culture-benders, where do you or your children go from there?

This question is applicable in the theological realm also (since all things are theological). How long will it be before the cultural Marxists get around to preaching that, since the Bible has a past they can't agree with, that it needs to be "reinterpreted?" Those commandments about no stealing and not coveting what belongs to your neighbor are really outdated in this new modern society where "redistribution of the wealth" has become the new "commandment." Actually the cultural and theological Marxists have already been at work in the Church inserting the premises of the left into current evangelical thinking and labeling it "compassionate Christianity." They can get by with this because most Christians have so little real grasp of history that they don't know the difference. And if the Marxist dresses up his agenda with biblical terminology then they never catch on. Will they end up "reinterpreting" Jesus as some sort of leftist revolutionary who came to take from the rich and give to the poor, rather than how He is Scripturally defined in John 14:6? If you've heard some of the sermons I have over the years you will be forced to conclude that they have been working on this project, slowly and quietly, for decades. Does that fact begin to give you any indication as to why the Church is often in the chaotic confusion that parts of it displays today?

When your view of the past is faulty then you have no guide by which to get the future right. They can change your history, your theology, all of it, and you won't know the difference!

Christians today need to stand up, start doing the homework, and learn to resist and expose this. Christians in the South need to do the same in regard to the flags and symbols that are both part of their faith and culture, because if you let them change your history, what do you pass on to your descendants? You may think I'm off the wall, but you had better start thinking and praying about this because it's happening right now, and how will you account to the Lord for having done nothing?
