This
is a claim made by some folks out there, but the likening doesn’t seem to hold
up. What was the Brexit, after all? It was Great Britain withdrawing from the
E.U. superstate and reclaiming her self-rule.
For people in the [u]nited States to do something comparable, one or
more of the States would have to withdraw from the superstate governed by Washington City.
Donald Trump says he would like to re-work some trade treaties and stay
out of others (which would be good), but this is not quite the same thing as
Brexit.
Furthermore,
under the Trump economic plan, the same multinational corporations who seek the
globalist trade deals he says he opposes (Apple, General Motors, etc.) will
still be in control of the American economy (and thus American politics as
well, most likely). So not much would
change for the average American as far as how much economic independence he or
she would have. Far too many would still
be wage-slaves of Wal-Mart, Ford Motor Co., Burger King, Chase, and all the
rest.
Remember,
too, what Americans got under the last President who styled himself an
outsider, Ronald Reagan (whom Mr Trump says he admires): higher spending, more debt, more federal
employees, not a single department closed, a continuation of the Social
Security Ponzi scheme, etc. And this is
something both ‘right’ and ‘left’ agree on:
Anyone
in the American Union, therefore, who wants a real break with Mammon-loving, Christ-hating,
corporate-controlled government, who wants a return to traditional, Church- and
family-centered living, will need to consider other options like peaceful
secession.
It
is obvious that the most important thing in life, the Christian Faith, is under
assault by the current powers-that-be in the u. S. If the forefathers of Americans, North and
South, were willing to get into a shooting match with the British Empire over
tea taxes and jury trials, can we not in the South today, or in Montana or
Indiana or other supposedly evangelical Christian strongholds, muster enough
courage and energy to pursue peaceful secession for the sake of our salvation
and that of the bairn-teams (generations) that will follow us?
Russia has left us with a very good ensample in this
regard. They were willing to tolerate
the rule of a conquering empire as long as it did not threaten their Orthodox
Christianity. But when it did, then they
began to seek their freedom:
—Some accused and still accuse St. Alexander Nevsky of “servile
submission” to the invaders. They argue he submitted to the pagan Tartars,
while St. Dimitry Donskoy, with the blessing of Venerable Sergius of Radonezh
initiated the liberation of Russia
and defeated the Tartars. What is the difference? Why did the former submit,
while the latter began a liberation war?
—We
should remember that in the thirteenth century Russia also had much worse
enemies—its potential conquerors—than the Mongols who then were tolerant
towards Orthodoxy. While Mongols were interested only in the material aspect of
occupation, the neighbors from the West thirsted for Russia’s spiritual occupation. By
the way, the results of that longing can clearly be seen in today’s Ukraine. This Uniate “Church,” these
divisions and schisms, are fruits of that early history, when prince Daniel of
Galicia (Danilo Romanovich) requested aid from the heterodox. But he neither
received assistance nor saved Russia
from pillage. Meanwhile, St. Alexander Nevsky, removing the menace of spiritual
occupation from the West, submitted to the Mongols and thus saved hundreds of
thousands of human lives and preserved Orthodoxy. As the historian George
Vernadsky put it: “These were the two heroic deeds of St. Alexander Nevsky: the
exploit of struggle in the West and the exploit of humility in the East.” By
the way, thanks to him many invaders subsequently became Christians by divine
providence.
However,
by the fourteenth century the Horde was no longer tolerant towards the faith of
Christ, and indeed Mamai can be characterized as a Muslim extremist. And at
that time there could be no more compromises… We are well aware what happened
eight years later on the Kosovo Field in Serbia. Serbia, defeated by the
Mohammedans, was under their sway which was very destructive for Christianity.
Thus, our prince had to take the sword and begin the liberation of Russia which
started at Kulikovo Field: . . .

It
should be the same with the South today.
For she is facing just the same sort of assault on the remnants of
Christianity in her land from corporate-run Washington City. Here is just one ensample of what is waiting
in the wings regarding public schools:
. . .
The
Satanic Temple (TST) is a fairly new organization. Founded in 2013, it fights
for political change by pointing out the ostensibly preferential treatment
Christianity enjoys in politics. TST has seven chapters in the USA and Europe,
and claims a membership of 100,000.
One
of the group's objectives is to embed Lucifer in the public school system by
establishing afternoon clubs, adoringly dubbed “After School Satan”, which is
TST’s response to a Supreme Court ruling allowing evangelical programs to
operate in schools.
Currently
nine clubs are listed under the program, including in Los
Angeles, Salt Lake City and Washington DC.
The clubs will focus on “rationalism,
free inquiry … and fun”, according to a promotional video.
TST
itself emphasizes that it seeks to implement “After School Satan” in locations
where active Christian children’s clubs operate.
TST
said it is “not interested in operating After School Satan clubs in school
districts that are not already hosting the Good News Club.”
The
Temple is
attempting to present a challenge to the Good News Club, an interdenominational
Christian program for five to twelve-year-olds, operating in over 3,500 public
schools across the country.

States
that secede would not have to go it alone.
There are friendly confederations out there that they could join, like
the BRICS block of nations. But first
they need to get over their Stockholm syndrome with Washington
City, stop treating the u. S.
Constitution like a magic charm, and start organizing for a real Brexit-type referendum.
