I see that Scripturalist Drake Shelton has become a card-carrying white supremacist. He’s the flipside of black race-baiters like Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Julian Bond, Harry Belafonte, Cornel West, Louis Farrakhan, Maxine Waters, &c. Between John Robbins, Sean Gerety, Gary Crampton, and Drake Shelton, Scripturalism has certainly gone to seed.
The only reasonable Scripturalist I’m aware of is Ryan, who blogs at Unapologetica. Ryan also sports that cool Keanu Reeves look (a la Neo).
Well, I do wish Drake all the best as he man’s his ham radio in that Idaho shack, where he will single-handedly coordinate the Great White Resistance Movement against invading Martians, mulattoes, and other dire threats to the purity of our precious bodily fluids. It’s a lonely job, but somebody’s gotta step up to the plate. Just keep your eye peeled for skitters prowling the woods.
I really had no intention of that Blue Pill reference to reach the Ivory Towers of Monad University but sometimes I forget that links show up on your radar. So I guess that my love of distinction has offended the Monad and I must pay the Intermediary his dues. Now that Obamacare has its two front teeth imbedded in my jugular I am doubt some that I will have enough to satisfy the rapacious appetites of the Monks of the Void. Maybe my Anti-Catholic leanings get the best of me or maybe you just have too much of Rome in your belly to appreciate the taste of Protestantism.
ReplyDeletemaybe you just have too much of Rome in your belly to appreciate the taste of Protestantism.
ReplyDeleteNo... I don't think that's true.
Drake has blown my cover. I'm a closet Romanist!
ReplyDeleteDrake, I am trying to understand just how it is you think that we have "too much Rome" in our bellies here.
ReplyDeleteWho is THE Antichrist?
ReplyDeleteThere are several viable candidates, viz. Muhammad, the Pope, Barack Obama, Drake Shelton...
DeleteYou forgot other viable candidates like Nero, Hitler or Richard Simmons.
DeleteI don't always agree with Drake, but I see nothing in his most recent post that would suggest white supremacy. In fact, the majority of Drake's posts have attacked that very notion. He is simply summarizing some of Dabney's point: 1. The bible doesn't condemn slavery. 2) man-stealing is wrong (which means American slavery, primarily practiced by 17th and 18th century Yankee merchant ships), and 3) Dabney's own argument is inconclusive since Dabney doesn't seem to allow for the reform of slavery along biblical guidelines (which would require the freeing of slaves every fiftieth year or so).
ReplyDeleteHe's done a running series supporting white supremacy. Follow the trail of breadcrumbs.
ReplyDeleteSteve,
ReplyDelete"There are several viable candidates, viz. Muhammad, the Pope, Barack Obama, Drake Shelton..."
This is why I don't pay attention to this blog. I am not even sure why I am even typing this right now. There is only one viable candidate for a Protestant and that is the Roman Papacy. The Papacy operates right off of the Neoplatonic idea of ADS which emanates a Hierarchy (See Pseudo Dionysius by Rorem). As in heaven so on earth. The Hierarchy sees itself as over the nations of men and so tries to blur their distinctions to dissolve them out into the Unholy Roman Empire, today erroneously referred to as the conspiracy of the New World Order. In contrast to this idea is to advocate sovereign nationalism which inevitably implies distinct languages, home-lands, cultures, etc = ethnicity. To advocate distinct ethnicity, language, home-lands, etc. is to reject the agenda of Rome and their Jesuit Counter Reformation.
Now to the white supremacy thing. It depends what one means.
1. I do believe their is one human genus but three primary races: That of Shem, that of Japheth and that of Ham. God sovereignly had these three men born with their disticnt ethnic characteristics. The black Hamites with their clear physical superiority. The white Japhethites and Shemites with their clear mental superiorities. Each with their own distinct beauty, strengths and weaknesses. How these could have come about by climate change I will leave to the dark places of your mind Steve. The blacks have never built an empire or advanced civilization and if one simply looks at an anthology of black writers vs. white writers, the comparison is alarming. Clearly the white Japhethites have built the greatest civilizations and invented all of the fundamental parts of modern civilization. The blacks were selected by the early African slave traders to do be slaves specifically because they were the only group of people that could withstand all of the physical hardships of slavery and not fall into despair (See William O. Blake, Slavery and the Slave Trade, Ancient and Modern pages 95-96). So the idea that the differences between the races is only the color of their skin is ignorant Neoplatonic, monadic, rubbish
2. I do not believe that the Aryan race has the right to exterminate other races. I believe that each race and distinct groups within a race have divine right to their ancient home-lands exceptions being the lawful purchase of land in special occasions.
3. The Africans were enslaved not by a moral permission from genesis 9 but sinfully according to a decree of Genesis 9.

Uh-oh. I just lost the Daffy Duck voting block.
4. Luke 21:24 refers to this time as the times of the Gentiles. NOT THE JEWS! The Neo Nazi and KKK propaganda that says that the Jews are behind all the schemes in the world are not believing the NT. The NT says that this is the times of the gentiles. I believe that the most evil men in the world are white and the most righteous men in the world are white. The point is, we white people at this time are the ones who make the powers moves in civilization. If that makes me a white supremacist I'm guilty as charged. I just cannot deny my reality and try to deny that all the fundamental building blocks and social ills of modern civilization are all from the hands of white men. The greatest forces for good and evil in the world are in the hands of white men. Again, if that makes me a white sup., I'm guilty as charged.
ReplyDeleteCalvin clearly says in his Institutes, Prefatory Address that the Counter Reformation Romanists were trying,
"to subvert all order and government, to disturb the peace and quiet of society, to abolish all laws, destroy the distinctions of rank and property, and, in short, turn all things upside down".
Distinctions in rank?! Hmmmmmmmmmmm....... That sounds just like the people who demonize the idea of white supremacy. They don't like the idea of rank.
We should all be one then shouldn't we Steve? We should all be dissolved into the Monad both epistemically, racially, economically, and nationally because as your Neoplatonic Masters have taught you: Distinction = Imperfection. Essence equals existence in the Monad therefore the only knowledge of the monad one could have would be a created analogy of proportionality as we stumble along and wait for the Intermediaries to nanny-state us into slavery.
You are not a Protestant Steve and how you could believe a doctrine of the Trinity yet again becomes impossible.

I'm tempted to confide in you that I'm really a Jesuit spy, but we're not allowed to tell.
“Now to the white supremacy thing. It depends what one means.”
ReplyDeleteNot too hard, I’ll ask real slow-like: Are…you…a…white…supremacist?
After clarifying (?) your position, you say:
“If that makes me a white supremacist I'm guilty as charged.”
It does and you are.
Fortunately, based solely on your obsession with outdated, early 19th to early 20th century scholarship (something you share with our beloved Christ-myther friends):
http://eternalpropositions.wordpress.com/2012/06/22/who-built-egypt-case-studies-in-black-african-societal-impotence/
you can be safely ignored.
Steve,
ReplyDelete"I'm tempted to confide in you that I'm really a Jesuit spy, but we're not allowed to tell."
Maybe so, but the term I would use is Jesuit coadjutor; Not necessarily directly and deliberately.
Derek,
ReplyDelete"Fortunately, based solely on your obsession with outdated, early 19th to early 20th century scholarship (something you share with our beloved Christ-myther friends):"
>>>Outdated? So then you would have me to believe the current historical and archaeological literature that says that all human life originated in Africa, contradictory to Gen 8-11 which states that human life after the flood began in Mesopotamia? You can be safely ignored.
"Outdated?"
ReplyDeleteYou better believe it, you weird little psycho you.
"So then you would have me to believe the current historical and archaeological literature that says that all human life originated in Africa, contradictory to Gen 8-11 which states that human life after the flood began in Mesopotamia?"
Only if the current scholarship is correct, and your interpretation (and perceived implications) of Genesis 8-11 is incorrect. Which it is.
"You can be safely ignored."
Oooooooo. No...I can't take it. The guy who isn't brave enough to just get on with it and become a skinhead is gonna ignore me...
Steve, after considering the matter, I think I know who THE antichrist is: Tom Cruise.
ReplyDeleteSeriously. Just watched a Dateline on the Holmes/Cruise split. Sounds like "the church" was holding auditions for a wife that would actually make Cruise look human. Drake's gonna have both eyes on the Pope while Tommy's stabbing him in the back with an LRH-brand dagger.
