Diversity Macht Frei
September 9, 2017
British Christianity used to be “bad news”. Who knew? This information comes to us from “Lord” Daniel Finkelstein in the pages of the Jewish Chronicle.
Lord Finkelstein is a prominent journalist and adviser to former Chancellor George Osborne. It’s unlikely these remarks will see him hounded from his job, stripped of his peerage, prosecuted for hate speech or even pressured into offering an apology. If any other random journalist had written “British Judaism is no longer bad news”, however, it’s a safe assumption that at least some of those things would have happened.
Lord Finkelstein is worried that Jews have gone too far in undermining Christianity. (Although, of course, he doesn’t acknowledge the role Jews have played in the process through the kind of subtle disparagement implicit in the headline.) He’s worried that the erosion of faith may call some aspects of Jewish Privilege into question.
In a Christian country we are, of course, a minority religion with all the issues that come with that. But in a country that has moved beyond Christianity, religion itself is in a minority. Instead of making it easier to have a particular faith, it may make it more difficult to have faith at all.
Jews benefit from a general sense that faith has social value and is worthy of respect. What may seem odd teaching or unusual traditions are made more familiar and understandable by the fact that odd teaching and unusual traditions are common place. Soon they may be relative rarities.
Jews have been happy to exploit the Equality Cult to undermine our traditional social order. But now they’re worried it may have gone too far.
The need to accommodate Jewish religious practice in public and social life may, counter intuitively, be reduced by the decline in the need to accommodate Christian teaching. Instead of achieving religious equality by ensuring that space is made for Jews, because it has to be made for others, the conclusion may be that no space needs be made for anyone. That’s equality, right?
And this isn’t a theoretical question either. Let’s take schooling. The right for parents to raise children in accordance with their own faith becomes less politically important the fewer people of faith there are.
We can see already that people who are concerned that Muslims should not be educated separately, make the same argument about Jews in order to satisfy concerns about equality.
Although Jews have been among the most zealous promoters of Equality Cult ideology, their embrace of it has always masked a fundamental contradiction. At its heart, Equality dogma says that people are all the same, while Jews believe they are different, special, Chosen. Judaism is an ideology of racial supremacism while Equality is an ideology of racial negationism. There is no long-run compatibility between them.
Jews regard the Equality Cult the way Erdogan regards democracy. “Once you reach your destination, you jump off.” And the destination in question would appear to be the dissolution of all substantive elements European culture coupled with the demographic eclipse of European peoples.
