5436. In America and to a lesser degree in some other parts of the world we are extremely fortunate to have a large degree of freedom. And along with that, we have a large degree of prosperity, which means many people have some financial freedom. People do not have to struggle just to survive at all.
5437. Several factors have contributed to the present existence of freedom and prosperity.
a. Christianity taught Western Civilization not to kill and not to steal and to deal honorably with others.
b. Philosophy, reason, and rationalism, starting with the Greeks, have taught people to work toward a rational systematic intellectual understanding of life and the universe.
c. The English made a long tradition of equal rights for all men, starting with King Arthur, or at least the legend of him, and then Alfred the Great, and then the Magna Carta.
d. Building on the Biblical principles of honest dealing, and on the rationalist effort to be systematic in understanding and organizing life, and on the English tradition of freedom, the American Founding Fathers did a very good job of creating a government based on the theory of Liberty and equal rights for all.
e. The advance of science, technology, and machinery over the last 500 years, combined with the existence of freedom, have made possible high levels of production and prosperity.
5438. Unfortunately the present freedom and prosperity in the world are rapidly disappearing into a Marxist hell of war, violence, hatred, and slavery.
5439. Several factors contribute to the present decline of freedom and prosperity.
a. Super Rich evil men have combined into a Great Conspiracy with the intention of achieving total control of the world in secret by devious means, and most importantly by the creation of many wars both large and small.
b. The greatest evil creation of the Conspiracy is Communism, an evil doctrine which teaches that killing and stealing are righteous, necessary, and inevitable, which promotes universal war and revolution, and which denounces business and property and freedom. This philosophy dominates a very large part of the world and is rapidly expanding with the support of the Conspiracy.
c. The Conspiracy and Communism promote Decadence in America, most importantly with drugs and with debt.
d. They promote every form of conflict, rich versus poor, black versus white, men versus women.
e. They promote demographic invasion by Mexicans in America and by Arabs in Europe.
f. They have substantially destroyed education in America.
g. They are steadily increasing political dogma and thought control.
h. Very recently, using the so-called “war on terror” as an excuse, they are rapidly eliminating Constitutional rights in America.
5440. The state of the economy in America is beyond madness. It is driving full throttle straight off the cliff.
5441. America has undertaken a great campaign in the Middle East to achieve universal hatred from all the world by practicing the most barbarous invasion, slaughter, and tyranny. This ongoing campaign is extremely successful. The purpose is to provoke World War III.
5442. There is no significant opposition to any of these evil programs anywhere.
5443. Therefore there is little reason for optimism about the future of freedom in the world. And it is a certainty that World War III will soon be upon us.
5444. America and the world are like a man who is near death with a horrible disease.
5445. The grim reality of invasion and slavery is nothing new. You could have been in Rome when it was overrun by barbarians. You could have been in the path of the Mongol hordes of Genghis Khan when they swept in from the east laying waste to everything, including Baghdad and the prosperous Islamic Empire. You could have been a Frenchman when Hitler’s blitzkrieg crushed all resistance on the way to Paris.
5446. Question: Can Liberty survive? Answer: If Liberty has no public support, if no one wants it, if no one cares, then no, Liberty cannot survive.
5447. The barriers to restoring Liberty on a strong foundation are great. They include:
a. Evil Super Rich men with great power.
b. Evil Government Officials working as servants of the Super Rich.
c. Evil and powerful Communist nations building armies of conquest and expanding their influence through subversion.
d. Increasingly decadent populations, especially increasing drug use and increasing debt.
e. Populations which vote based on who promises to give them the most government money stolen from others.
f. Ignorance, illiteracy, propaganda, and thought control.
5448. Laid out in this book are the basic facts about the sad state of the world, how it is being done to us, what we need to do about it, and how we can stop it from happening again.
5449. Also laid out in this book are the basic facts about good and evil. Evil has its appeal. But for those who desire happiness and a better world, good is the correct solution.
5450. It is a very big job and it will not be easy. But the only alternative is to lie down and to let the evil tide wash over you and destroy everything that you care about.
