Divide and Conquer
Divide and conquer (or rule) is the policy of maintaining control over one's subordinates or subjects by encouraging dissent between them.
Some people are always trying to divide people into groups based on different criteria. Sometimes it is race or nationality, or religion and politics or just young and old and male and female, or rich and poor[1], educated and not educated to the same degree. The list is endless and within every group their can be further division.
Black and White
Many people want to blame the plight of the Negro race in America on years of slavery or bigotry and racism.[2] But what are the root causes of what we are statistically seeing in black communities today?
To say, "Black lives matter", is a racist statement in itself because it is a way of dividing people into separate groups by race. The truth is lives matter. What does race have to do with it?
Didn't Martin Luther King talk about being judged by the content of our character[3] and not the color of our skin?
The question is, "Do the lives of others matter to you as much as your own life matters?"
Isn't that the golden rule?
Another way to look at it is to ask, "Do you love your neighbor as much as you love yourself?"
So let's look at some statistics and see what they might mean:
- “It’s important to note that black men commit nearly half of all murders in this country, which is astounding when you take into consideration the fact that they only make up 12-13 per cent of the population.”[[2]]
Today, “Ninety-three per cent of blacks in America are killed by other blacks.” 324,000 U.S. Blacks have been killed by Blacks in only 35 years.
Why do these statistics exist?
What changed?
Evidently Black lives matter demonstrations should begin in the black community.
Single-Parent Families
Statistically single-parent families do not do as well as two-parent families in many ways. Children who are raised in Single-parent families are at greater risk.[4]
So the fathers of black children need to realize that their children's lives matter.
67% Black or African Americans are raised in single-parent families while only 25% of White Americans live in single-parent families. Today Asian or Pacific Islanders account for only only 16% living in single-parent families.[3]
- "As supported by the data..., children from fatherless homes are more likely to be poor, become involved in drug and alcohol abuse, drop out of school, and suffer from health and emotional problems. Boys are more likely to become involved in crime, and girls are more likely to become pregnant as teens."
The modern black community has produced a culture of divided families and out of wedlock births. Is this a product of the slavery that took place over a hundred years ago or are there other factors that have been undermining black families?
Today, one out of two children in the United States will live in a single-parent family at some time before they reach age 18. In 1900 depending on where you gather your statistics 3 to 9 percent of the Children were in single-parent families. The difference goes beyond numbers because approximately 75 percent of black and white single parents were widows not the result of out of wedlock births or abandonment.
In 1900, less than 40 years after slavery ended, out-of-wedlock births were rare. These births amongst black families only accounted for a few percentage points of the births. Most pregnancies in unmarried women were rapidly followed by marriage while unmarried women typically gave up their babies for adoption. Today, even with countless abortions, black women of live births stand at 72.2 percent of the unmarried.
Why do these statistics exist?
What changed?
According to Black pastor Rev. Cecil Blye “The paradigm of government as parent has destroyed the black family and made black fatherhood irrelevant,”[5]
Few pastors white or black have been taught why Jesus said in Matthew 23:9 "And call no [man] your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven."
Speaking to people in the time of Christ when Senators and leaders of the government were called Father those people knew exactly what Christ meant. Modern Christians are kept in the dark. Those Fathers are the Benefactors who offer social welfare in the form of free Bread and circuses called Corban.
History tells us our fate if we will not come together seeking righteousness for all.
- “The real destroyers of the liberties of the people is he who spreads among them bounties, donations, and benefits.” Plutarch
Understanding the different Welfare types and the Roots of the Welfare State is important in seeing that the modern Public Welfare system is killing black society and eating away at the rest of society.
As Polybius wrote 300 years before Christ. "The masses continue with an appetite for benefits and the habit of receiving them by way of a rule of force and violence. The people, having grown accustomed to feed at the expense of others and to depend for their livelihood on the property of others... institute the rule of violence; and now uniting their forces massacre, banish, and plunder, until they degenerate again into perfect savages and find once more a master and monarch."
Slavers
What is the real Dialectic?
Many people want to blame the greedy white race for slavery. This of course is a racist approach. In fact one of the first slave owner in America was a black man who owned another black man.
An indentured servant of a black man ran away before his indenture was not completed so the black owner sued in court to have his indentured servant made a permanent slave for the rest of his life. Almost all slaves brought from Africa were purchased from other black men who had made them slaves. During the 1830's it has been reported that there were 3,775 black slaveholders who owned 12,760 slaves. Many Native American tribes practiced some form of slavery before the European introduction of African slavery into North America. So owning a slave is not the result of one race oppressing another. It is men oppressing other men.
To say that whites owe blacks something for the abuses under slavery as if white people were the cause of slavery is also a racist statement. Almost all blacks sold into slavery were first delivered by blacks in Africa and then by Muslim slave traders. According to the 1860 federal census reports less than 1.4% of Americans owned slaves. The America census determined that there were fewer than 385,000 individuals who even owned slaves and they were not all white.
Any one who tries to make slavery a white black issue is a racist.
Of the 10,689 free blacks who lived in New Orleans alone, 3,000 of those free Negroes owned black slaves.
King James, a white guy with power, sold 30,000 Irish prisoners as slaves to the New World. His Proclamation of 1625 required Irish political prisoners be sent overseas and sold to English settlers in the West Indies. By the mid 1600s, the Irish were the main slaves sold to Antigua and Montserrat. The woman were often sold and used to breed with black men because mulatto slaves made better slaves.
Most slave owners had only one or a few slaves who worked and ate alongside each other. Very few owned large numbers but numerous Blacks owned 50 slaves as what was called slave magnates. In Charleston 125 free Negroes and nearly 69 of the free Negroes in North Carolina owned slaves.
It is true that hundreds of thousands of Irish people were sold both as slaves and as indentured servants. Irish had been oppressed and murdered by the hundreds of thousands and survivors were often shipped off to their doom by white Englishmen with the power to do so for centuries. This enslavement of whites included the Scots and and poor Englishmen and even orphans by hundreds of thousands.
This history of enslaving whites is well recorded back to the first centuries where Romans enslaved the Brits and Gauls often in the cruelest of ways. In A.D. 319 Constantine, ruled that if an owner whipped a slave of any color to death, "he should not stand in any criminal accusation if the slave dies; and all statutes of limitations and legal interpretations are hereby set aside."[6]
Millions and millions of whites were sold as slaves in North Africa slave markets with women and children returning the highest prices and destined for the cruelest of treatments. But all through Africa Blacks were enslaving other Blacks since before recorded history. Slavery is not a race issue. It is a power issue.
To deny white slavery or to suggest that the few white slave owners gives the modern generation the right to place the burden of historical slavery upon all whites is a racist approach which leads to more prejudice and abuse rather than less.
Irish, Scots and English were forced by the threat of physical violence to do dangerous work that often caused their deaths both as indentured servants and slaves for centuries. We could find the same oppression in the orient and certainly of the Chinese immigrant on the west coast or in Africa or India or South America or among Native Americans in almost all lands and among all races. But again it was a minority that participated in these abusive practices and none of these abuses were limited to any particular race.
Men oppress men.
Socialism is the spirit of slavery. It is legalized bondage under the guise of equality. By its nature it is the oppression of the greatest minority, the individual. It is forcing your neighbor to labor for the benefit of others. It is a centralization of power and control. Democratic socialism is the beginning of that centralization into the hands of the majority and always leads to abuse.
What should be the division in society?
Should it be race?
Should it be nationality?
Should it be based on moral and righteous principles of honor, forgiveness and charity?
George Washington Carver and Booker T Washington both met the difficulty of abuse by racism but they never became racists. The history of their life shows they received aid and assistance from many whites throughout their life and forgave the prejudices of others. What made them great men was not their anger but their righteous, moral striving to do the right thing by all men.
The real valid division in society between good and evil is not between race, economic divisions, religion ideologies or national origins but it is between those who have more Social Virtues and those who have less.
- Racism "the belief that all members of each race possess characteristics or abilities specific to that race, especially so as to distinguish it as inferior or superior to another race or races."
- A racist is someone who believes that a particular race is inferior or superior to another race or is guilty of the acts and deeds of some of those who are categorized as a member of a particular race.
The Nativity of Oppression
The historical fact is whites protected, defended and befriended native people and whites also abused them. But it is also a fact that native people were killing, invading, enslaving, raping each other from one end of the Americas to the other while there were also good moral native Americans the same as many of the good moral white settlers.
Dividing good and evil by race is definition of what a racist does and that is unproductive.
The Aztecs were killing and enslaving people because they had the power to do so until the Spanish came with more power. Even a modern voter in a democracy has the seed of tyranny growing in his heart when he wields the power to oppress his neighbor and force him to pay for the benefits he wants.
Columbus is dead. He has crossed the divide that we all encounter sooner or later. Was he Saint or sinner?
Probably a little of both from time to time.
Thought Police
Power corrupts.
Write it down.
Tyrants and despots are not born. They are made from the selfishness and apathy of the people. As long as you look to governments that exercise authority to take from your neighbor to guarantee your peace and security you will have neither peace nor security. You cannot have your liberty back unless you take your responsibilities back.
Today the covetous practices of the people bind them as surety and slave, as product and bondsman. Public Education, the welfare state and even Social Security are covetous practices.
Both Black and White or Yellow and Red would do far better to be as concerned about the property of others rather than coveting their neighbors' goods through Benefactors who exercise authority one over the other. The family is the primary social foundation of all societies and when that foundation fails all else fails. Welfare undermines the family.
This welfare by force, rejected by John the Baptist and Jesus the Christ and the early Church is both a snare and a trap. It includes more than just EBT welfare cards[7] used in the United States and the United Kingdom just like Rome did with their Tesserae which like Food Stamps programs offer the free Bread and circuses that destroyed that society and made the rulers more powerful.
History is rife with societies being destroy by welfare schemes that make the word of God to none effect. From the Free Bread and circuses of Rome to the Corban of the Pharisees.
- "At the bottom of education, at the bottom of politics, even at the bottom of religion, there must be for our race economic independence." Booker T Washington
Why do these statistics exist?
What changed?
So what does matter is not one color or race over the other but Social Virtues by which we measure the character of an individual. At one time in America most all welfare in society was offered and provided by charity and through private institutions based on a moral criteria and personal compassion.
The mechanics of Socialism by its very bureaucratic nature removes the moral value criteria necessary to justly distribute wealth and benefits of society. It not only makes the poor dependent and destroys the family which provides not only the next generation but it robs people of the rewards of virtue which weakens the moral fabric of society.
Many conservative thinkers see that Socialism is a bad thing and it is. Unfortunately they come to that conclusion because Socialism requires that you take away from one class of citizens to provide for another. All forms of government require those that have to share with those that do not have enough in order to sustain the society in which we live.
The difference is in the means. Socialism does it by force through men who call themselves Benefactors but by exercising authority one over the other. They merely take from one group and give to another by taxation.
What people fail to see is that does not form the real bonds of society that will sustain it in drastically hard times nor is it inductive to justice, even social justice. The only way to bind society together and strengthen the poor is to do so through fidelity, hope and charity and what has been called the Perfect law of liberty. That original liberty was the power to choose who to give to, what to give, when to give and even how much to give.
Charity must be metered by those who provide the sacrifice not by those who desire the benefit.
That choice to give must remain with the individual and it must be free or else the people will not be free.
We have need of repentance.
If you are to be free there is no black and white except between right and wrong. We as a people need to tend to the Weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith which include caring for the needs of our neighbors and the widows and orphans of our society through Pure Religion in matters of health, education, and welfare. We are NOT to provide for the needy of society through the Covetous Practices and the men who call themselves benefactors but who exercise authority one over the other like the socialists do.
The Way of Christ was like neither the way of the world of Rome nor the governments of the gentiles who depend on those fathers of the earth through force, fear and fealty who deliver the people back in bondage again like they were in Egypt. Christ's ministers and true Christians do not depend upon systems of social welfare that force the contributions of the people like the corban of the Pharisees which made the word of God to none effect. Many people have been deceived to go the way of Balaam and the Nicolaitan and out of The Way of Christ and have become workers of iniquity.
The Christian conflict with Rome in the first century Church appointed by Christ was because they would not apply to the fathers of the earth for their free bread but instead relied upon a voluntary network providing a daily ministration to the needy of society through Faith, Hope, and Charity by way of freewill offerings of the people, for the people, and by the people through the perfect law of liberty in Free Assemblies according to the ancient pattern of Tuns or Tens as He commanded.
The modern Christians are in need of repentance.
"Follow me!" —Jesus the Christ.
- One of the most important things to do is to become involved in a network of Charitable Practices. Everyone should want to join a Living Network of Love and Charity.
- If you think you have a calling to be a Minister of God or you might want to dedicate your life to Christ as an Ordained Minister of His Holy Church, contact us to start the process of discipleship and become the benefactors who exercise only love, NOT authority.[8]
