Truth and Honesty: The Core Values of Western Civilization

Truth and honesty, the core or premier values of Western Civilization have been repeatedly, I might say continuously, challenged for a very long time, always by one or another imaginative view of the nature of our world.

Some famous examples of which are these: At the time of Galileo and Copernicus, truth and honesty were challenged by an entrenched but incorrect view that the earth was the center of the universe; The Magna Carta signified the victory of truth and justice over the concept of the divine right of kings, an achievement henceforth requiring kings and rulers to recognize the right of their subjects to be heard; The victory of moveable type and the printing press over the claim of the Roman Catholic Church to exclusive dominion over reading and writing.

The core values of Western Civilization are once again being challenged, this time by Jewish supremacists (or such other designation as you see fit - perhaps organized Jewry?), with a ferocity which perhaps we have never experienced before. There are many who, in fear and trembling, think that Western Civilization is finished, or may be finished. The onslaught against the defenders of truth and honesty is an attack on any questioning or doubt of the Jewish Holocaust, any suggestion that it may not have occurred or that any of the evidence presented to establish the truth of the Holocaust may be fake. In addition, the attack is meant to protect all false history supporting the Jewish Holocaust. It continues to be claimed that six million Jews were slaughtered by the Germans, even though some Jewish organizations with access to reliable information, for several years now, have disputed the assertion of six million slaughtered Jews.

Seemingly as a response to the tremendous influence of historical revisionism on public opinion, the campaign of the Jewish supremacists to extinguish public doubts about the Holocaust has not only moved into high gear, so to speak, but has taken on a much more, shall I say, "in your face" character, most particularly seen in the escalation of efforts to criminalize Holocaust "denial" by creating new laws, and imposing increasingly severe punishments and penalties for violations of such laws against freedom of expression and thought.

Massive numbers of people are now coming to realize that it is not reasonable to criminalize the natural propensity people have to inquire into things they are not sure of, lack sufficient information on, or issues that continue to be under serious discussion. Once more, people are finding themselves burdened by a "top-down" proscription, an authoritarian proscription, against inquiry into certain matters. Most intelligent people have never liked that and have never sat still with such a burden upon them. In our civilization, respect for oneself has always rested on, and continues to rest on, respect for one's intelligence, or as one may say, on one's God-given intelligence. Most of us see this as a fundamental principle, yes an indispensable principle. I cannot even conceive of the belief in a Creator if, at the same time, I am to believe that our Creator has knowingly limited our intelligence to require that we allow someone else to do our thinking for us. That would be an intolerable contradiction.

The conflict over the Jewish Holocaust is one more attack, I might add a most vicious attack, on truth and honesty, an attack which must be defeated. Why? Because it is what has come to be known as "a zero-sum game," which means that the loser takes nothing. To make it perfectly clear, that is to say if we are the losers in this conflict with Jewish supremacists, the great civilization of the West is finished.

ADDENDUM: When Western Civilization is dead, and it remains only for historians to write about its demise, its termination might well be referred to as the great take-down. And who should be credited with engineering the great take-down? Well, Satan and his host of mortal captives and servants, of course. The underlying guiding rule of life, believe it or not, for those choice mortals who created the glorious preeminence of Western Culture was a stern rule: Straight is the way and narrow the path; a rule which, as we can see, is the precise polar opposite of the rule followed by the destroyers of Western Culture: Manifold and devious are the ways and labyrinthine is the path. The latter rule is Mammon’s rule.

I think that truth and honesty may well be in the very fabric of the western culture but only within the individual national boundaries as stated by their laws, istitutions and in individual behavoiur, but when it comes to dealing with the rest of humanity ,the west has always found ways not to be bound by them.

I do agree that sometimes the jews use the holocaust , for their own racial gains and that there is a need to move on so everyone can accrue what is justly due in gains or loses.
