This great betrayal has taken our “progressive” culture, with “the giant” of applied science lurking over everyone’s sense of the possible and turned it to fatalism.[2]
These betrayals have led to “multiculturalism” and the balkanization both of nations, and families, the better to centralize power and to scramble all states into a World “Commonwealth” where power, control and resources are monopolized by an oligarchy; those closer to the labyrinth’s center having greater amounts of all material and social perks and greater immunity from “law.”
The dogma of “relativism,” gussied up as “situational ethics” means in effect that the law is the will of those with most power and that reason is an instrument of will and thus of appetites; that the rationales of this new State are thus insane, acts of wanton atrocity, to quote Melville in the epigraph. This deification of the will is a radical subversion of the principles of law, justice and righteousness, as well as charity rooted in Scri

The slogans and clichés that mask hollowness of heart and lusts for power not only conduce to a reign of lawless law, “a new science of degradation” but to an age in which lies become truth and fewer, always fewer people have the depth of knowledge to notice or the depth of heart to care.
In the vacuum created in hearts and minds, fear enters, “panic and terror,”.... and the world is swept by a series of expertly generated panics that lower hopes and increase alienation from the soul and from each other’s souls.
“Cruel are the times” when lying becomes a universal principle and we fear to speak truth, partly because the truth may immobilize, it is so terrible.[4]
