And inasmuch as they cannot so live, while they do remain together, there must be the position of superior and inferior, and I, as much as any other man, am in favor of having the superior position assigned to the White race"</i> - Abraham Lincoln, Fourth Lincoln-Douglas Debate, September 18, 1858, Charleston, Illinois, in Abraham Lincoln: <i>Speeches and Writings</i> (New York: Library of America, 1989), p. 636, and in <i>Collected Works of Abraham Lincoln</i>, Volume 5, page 371.<br /><br />Why then the Civil War?<br /><br /><i>"This war would never have been possible without the sinister influence of the Jesuits. We owe it to popery that we now see our land reddened with the blood of her noblest sons. Though there were great differences of opinion between the South and the North on the question of slavery, neither Jeff Davis nor any of the leading men of the Confederacy would have dared to attack the North, had they not relied on the promises of the Jesuits, that, under the mask of democracy, the money and arms of the Roman Catholics, even the arms of France, were at their disposal, if they would attack us...<br /><br />"Professor [Samuel] Morse has said to me of the plots made in the very city of Rome to destroy this republic,...[of] the priests, the nuns, and the monks, which daily land on our shores under the pretext of preaching their religion, instructing the people in their schools, taking care of the sick in their hospitals, [who] are nothing but the emissaries of the pope, of Napoleon, and the other despots of Europe, to undermine our institutions, alienate the hearts of our people from our Constitution, and our laws, destroy our schools, and prepare a reign of anarchy here as they have done in Ireland, in Mexico, in Spain and wherever there are people who want to be free"</i> - President Abraham Lincoln, summer 1864, to his confidante and friend, Fr. Charles Chiniquy, as found in <i>Fifty Years in the "Church" of Rome</i> by Charles Chiniquy, Chick Publications, 1985, reprinted from the original 1886 edition, p 296-297.<br /><br />Observe Lincoln's comments about the subverting of national institutions, undermining of the Constitution and the breakdown of law and order in order to play into the hands of <i>"despots of Europe."</i><br /><br />You don't have to look far to see how that is happening here and now, as Lincoln forewarned.<br /><br />He also in the same passage warned that the Civil War could have become <i>"a religious war, and...take a tenfold more savage and bloody character."</i><br /><br />Mercifully, it didn't but you don't have to look far to see how and why such a conflict is now possible in the UK.<br /><br />It is to be hoped that a BNP Government will ensure it never happens.alanoreihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12013953165470026155noreply@blogger.com
