Christendom Needs Rebuilding: Egalitarianism is a Failed Experiment

For all their faults, at least the Christian Kings of Europe weren’t sacrificing babies to Baal and eating their flesh. It really makes you wonder how much advancement Western Society has lost out on by allowing secret societies to topple Christian monarchies and depose the Pope.

I was listening to a popular Beijing lecturer, Professor Jiang, explain his view that Christ’s actual gospel is an egalitarian anti-establishment spirituality that merely taught that everyone needs to realize they are Gods with the divine spark who can do whatever they please with no concern for consequences. Remarkably, he says that Christendom is a corruption of Christ’s message because it’s an institutionalization of an egalitarian spirituality. But I think he’s just a communist, and couldn’t be more wrong.

St. Paul speaks about the unity among Christians in one chapter and in the next he explains the spiritual hierarchy of the Angels, men, and women. The wisdom of the Catholic Church is that Christianity is not an autonomous endeavor, but a communal, corporeal Body of many. Since Christ’s message is for all people, then it must be for the emperor as much as his servant; all must be able to participate in an authentic Christianity that accounts for their myriad of differences.

Since Christ taught that we were all sons and daughters of God the Father, our unity with the Divine implies some type of harmonious structure, a living organic body of believers. In the West, the Church uniquely asserted its authority over the secular government during the fall of the Roman Empire, while in the Eastern Church the Bishops were subordinate to their secular leaders. This uniquely Roman structure ensured the spiritual unity of Europe for centuries. Although it wasn’t perfect and there were notably corrupt Popes, the preservation of the Faith and Tradition held stable.

Subordinating the secular rulers to the Divine ruler provided an essential check on the power of despots, and provided an example for Christian leadership at the level of the King. The flowering of the structure of Christian nobility over these centuries provided for the spiritual and physical needs of the entire populace. No matter one’s station in life, one could express an authentic Christian Charity. Grace flowed through this structure like a fountain.

Unfortunately, secret societies took root so they could overthrow the established Christian order. The rebellion against Christian Rome fractured the Faith and society and unleashed a philosophy that attempted to be devoid of religion and God. Society was imagined not as an entangled collection of Christian families, but as a collection of individuals.

Eventually, the “Enlightened Atheist" arose who, enculturated in a Christian ethos of social Charity as has never before existed on the face of the Earth, supposes he can use Reason alone, devoid of Christ, to create a more perfect society. And thus are born the Republics, with their own bloody wars and genocide of nobility. Alas, for all their talk of moral superiority these “Enlightened Atheists" unsurprisingly created societies of such depravity and absence of virtue it would make the demons blush.

Modern rhetoric of egalitarianism has no place in authentic Christianity because it diminishes the Body of Christ to the autonomy of the individual, cut off from a living unified body. That unity with the Divine that Professor Jiang talks about, requires a unity among people, not a fracturing of individuals as Gods of their own universes. Today Christians are ruled by shadowy elites with their puppet governments that live by this delusion of their individual Divinity. We have discarded the natural order of noble Christian families for the promises of professional liars, psychopaths, and Satanists.

Divested of his Papal States and Papal Tiara, required to submit to the secular authority of satanists and atheists, the Papacy that once acted as the spiritual leader of Kings, now holds hands with Hindus and Baal Worshippers in a pathetic attempt to signal “World Peace” and “Brotherly Love,” foreign concepts to these false religions. The hierarchy of Christian culture has been turned upside down, and it’s the people who suffer because of it.

Deconstructing the spiritual reality of a Catholic society, flowing with grace to all of its members, has gotten tiresome. I think most of us are sick of it. I’d rather have the squabbling of Christian nobles than the bloody altars of the elite psychopaths. Western Society seems ripe for a new system of governance, perhaps we could consider giving the Papal States back to the Pope and the thrones of Europe back to their Kings, or perhaps a timely crash of the financial apparatus would do that for us. I’m not suggesting we would be ruled by saints, but only that we might stop being ruled by Satanists.
