Entry: What's Going Right in Europe--How Localism Might Save the Continent Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/whats_going_right_in_europe_how_localism_might_save_the_continent#25191 Post contents: Oh great, Charles is having his jerk-off fantasies of King Louis again.... "The Industrial Revolution was a stab into the heart of Europe, just as the rise of the merchant bourgeoisie destroyed the stability of the agrarian culture..." And he continues to show his hatred of capitalism, technology, and a return to the stone age..... gee, sure sounds a lot like the leftist enviromentalists, doesn't it? "“For every monarchy overthrown the sky becomes less brilliant, because it loses a star. A republic is ugliness set free.”—Anatole France" Charles also has not answered why a Republic is any worse than an absolute monarchy (I wonder why Charles won't agree to a constitutional monarchy, which I can agree with? Oh wait, that would then mean that King Charles would actually have to then be accountable for his actions!) And should I also point out that even the smallest form of any government is still evil and that God himself warned Israel when they asked for a king? " And he said, This will be the manner of the king that shall reign over you: He will take your sons, and appoint them for himself, for his chariots, and to be his horsemen; and some shall run before his chariots. And he will appoint him captains over thousands, and captains over fifties; and will set them to ear his ground, and to reap his harvest, and to make his instruments of war, and instruments of his chariots. And he will take your daughters to be confectionaries, and to be cooks, and to be bakers. And he will take your fields, and your vineyards, and your oliveyards, even the best of them, and give them to his servants. And he will take the tenth of your seed, and of your vineyards, and give to his officers, and to his servants. And he will take your menservants, and your maidservants, and your goodliest young men, and your asses, and put them to his work. He will take the tenth of your sheep: and ye shall be his servants. And ye shall cry out in that day because of your king which ye shall have chosen you; and the LORD will not hear you in that day (1 Samuel 8:11–18)." This warning fell on deaf ears. “Nevertheless the people refused to obey the voice of Samuel; and they said, Nay; but we will have a king over us” (I Samuel 8:19)." Sent at: 2008 07 24
