The West was a rule of law civilisation, that is the
concept that there is a higher law that all human laws should submit to and be
consistent with.
When divine law became natural law and then simply man's
law,
When the authority of rulers being given by God became
authority given by the people for the people,
When the rule of law became one law for the elites and
one law for the rest of us,
When the guidance of ancient institutions tested by
centuries became guidance by the latest fad,
When social justice replaced justice, remember justice needs no qualifier it simply ought to be applied, and therefore justice was abandoned,
When man had successfully transformed all of these
things, the heart of the West being centered around a vision of Christ, however
flawed in application yet still grand, was replaced by a society centered
around the sinful nature of man.
Western man etched away at every foundation and found
himself standing in a house of rubble.
We are exactly where we should be, having made all the
changes to our civilisation that we did. You cannot reject every foundation upon which your civilisation stood, and not find your society in a state of thorough confusion and
ever-increasing decline.
