Blackstone
and Montesquieu give us helpful general definitions of ‘law’. Blackstone in his Commentaries
says it is a rule given by a superior that an inferior must obey; Montesquieu,
the necessary relation of one thing to another due to their unchanging natures
(opening chapter of The Spirit
of the Laws). With the passage
of the falsely-named Respect for Marriage Act by the US Congress (with lots of
Republican support), both definitions are trampled upon.
This terrible
Act will require the States to honor all marriages contracted in all other
States, including those between couples other than the traditional male/female
kind. As marriage can exist only between
one man and one woman, Montesquieu’s definition is broken – a man ‘marrying’ a
man and so on represents a falsehood and therefore cannot be lawful. And as marriage of one man with one woman was
given by a superior (God – see Genesis 2:24, St. Matthew’s Gospel 19:4-6) to an
inferior (mankind), the redefinition of marriage in the Act to include other
arrangements breaks Blackstone’s definition.
Thus, according to the most basic definitions of law, the Respect for
Marriage Act has nullified itself and should be obeyed by no one.
Human
sexuality is really not a thing for the States to be careless with. Fr. Joseph Gleason, an Orthodox priest in
Illinois who fled the US with his family during the Marxist Obama years for saner
ground, recounts
some essential history for us about the fate of societies that embraced
sexual debauchery, including this:
#2 —
Canaan
Why were the
Canaanites destroyed? They had sinned in many ways, for many years. But what
particular sins finally brought judgment down upon them? Why did God finally
send Israel with instructions to wipe out all of the inhabitants of Canaan?
"You shall not lie with a male as with a
woman. It is an abomination. Nor shall you mate with any
animal, to defile yourself with it. Nor shall any woman stand before an animal
to mate with it. It is perversion. ‘Do not defile yourselves with any of these
things; for by all these the nations are defiled, which I am casting out before
you. For the land is
defiled; therefore I visit the punishment of its iniquity upon it, and the land
vomits out its inhabitants." (Leviticus 18:22-25)
Many people know
that God sent Israel to destroy the Canaanites, and to take over their
land. Few people realize that homosexual
sex was one of the reasons why this judgment took place.
Fr. Joseph
concludes,
In many biblical
cases, God was patient with people even in the midst of many sins. But when
they finally descended into the debauchery of sodomy, God's patience wore thin.
Judgment was knocking at the door.
These Scriptures
have been handed down to us from God's prophets. And they suggest that sodomy
is not just your average run-of-the-mill sin. In many cases, sodomites brought
down destruction on entire cities, and even upon entire nations.
We need to keep
these lessons in mind when we consider what America has legalized and
celebrated on a national level, mandating homosexual "marriage"
rights in the Supreme Court, and lighting up the White House itself with a
profane homosexual-pride rainbow. In the seven years since this took place, the
homosexual movement has continued to advance, corrupting the culture and
government at every turn.
Sodomites have
taken the very sign of peace which
God gave Noah, and they have twisted it into a symbol for sodomy.
Is this a level
of blasphemy which God will choose to overlook?
But despite
these warnings, many in the States are re-embracing the old pre-Christian
deities, like Ishtar, whether knowingly or unknowingly. Rod Dreher writes,
The second -- and most interesting -- god in
Cahn's book is Ishtar (Astarte/Ashtoreth/Venus/Inanna), the Babylonian goddess
of love, pictured above. She was the goddess of sacred prostitution, of
transgression, and the blurring of boundaries. Did you know that she was also
the goddess of gender fluidity? I thought that was too on the nose to be true,
but it is. This is easy to discover from authoritative sources online, but
here's a very short bit from Psychology
Today:
‘The
Mesopotamian Ishtar, the beautiful goddess of fertility, love, war, and sex,
was sometimes represented with a beard to emphasize her more bellicose side.
She could change a man into a woman, and the assinnu, kurgarru, and kuku’u who
performed her cult had both male and female features.’
Cahn asks what it would mean for America to
fall into the worship of Ishtar?
‘We would
expect a transformation to begin that would alter the realm of sexuality. With
the goddess's entrance we would expect biblical standards and ethics
surrounding sexuality and marriage to begin to erode. We would expect the moral
foundations and values that had undergirded Western civilization for nearly two
thousand years to begin overturning.
‘In short,
we would expect there to be a revolution in the realm of sexuality -- a sexual
revolution.’
More:
‘Not only
did Ishtar introduce, promulgate, and champion sexual immorality -- she
sanctified it; she declared it holy. Sexually immoral acts were part of her
cult and worship, performed as rites in her temples and shrines. So in the grip
of her spirit, the same thing began manifesting in American and Western
culture. Sexual immorality was now not only accepted but treated as sacred.
‘Now it was
the former standards and restraints that were seen as sinful, puritanical,
repressive, and evil. And the one who opposed the newly sanctified sins or
failed to adequately revere them was now treated as something of a heretic, and
the opposition to the new morality as something akin to blasphemy.’
With the
blasphemous Respect for Marriage Act (RfMA), we have reached the end of the
usefulness of the current union between the States. When the Federal City (we no longer want to
tarnish the name of General George Washington by associating it with that place;
credit to the great Southern historian Dr. Clyde Wilson for the alternative
name) begins issuing orders (honor sexual immorality, or else…) that will bring
about the spiritual and physical destruction of the peoples of the States, it
has become necessary, at the least, to disobey the order, to nullify it, and,
at the most, if the Feds try to force the resisting States to surrender to
their will, to leave the current union altogether. And there is no mistaking it: The RfMA includes provisions to
force States to comply, something court rulings, as bad as they are, are
unable to do:
The bill would
additionally require every state to recognize every same-sex marriage that “is
valid in the State where the marriage was entered into.”
The bill also has
a “private right of action” clause, which would allow “any person who is harmed
by a violation of subsection (b)…[to] bring a civil action in the appropriate
district court of the United States against the person who violated such a
subsection for declaratory and injunctive relief.” Likewise, attorneys general
would be able to bring civil action against any person who violates the law.
Secessionist
sentiment is already rising. Both Daniel
Horowitz and Dr.
Steve Turley have shown that conclusively.
It may be about to explode thanks to anti-laws like the RfMA.
Wise
political leadership at this moment is crucial.
The grifters/careerists like Billy Nungesser and telegenic comedians
like John Kennedy (who try to persuade people to take deadly
covid jabs with ridiculous
singing and who push
for wars that turn out to be money
laundering operations for Establishment politicians of both
parties) need to step aside so that the more honorable warriors like Eric
Schmitt and Jeff Landry can take the helm of their respective States and steer us
out of the dangerous waters into which we have sailed.
