Let’s be clear here: Not all Muslims are barbaric; only those who are faithful to the orthodox teachings of Islam are.

Not all men are fit to live in (or be citizens of) a free society. Those who voluntarily embrace teachings (whether Mao’s, or Hitler’s, or Muhammad’s) which instruct followers to initiate force against others in order to deprive them of their freedoms are intrinsically not immigrants but invaders; not citizens but saboteurs. As such they should be denied entry to free societies, and, so far as is practical, expelled when found therein.

Not all civilizations and moral codes are sufficiently civilized to merit our praise and comradeship. The American and the Australian, the British and the French, the post-WWII Japanese and the South Korean: These societies differ but uniformly attain that level of civility which merits the respect due to equals.

The dog’s breakfast that is the Arab world, on the other hand, rises scarcely a hair’s-breadth above the tribalism of central Africa or the Amazon basin, and while the people enslaved therein merit our pity and our civility and our kindness when we deal with them as fellow men, they should rightfully encounter scorn and negation when they approach us as representatives or evangelists of evil ideologies and practices.

This is moral clarity. It is what Rowan Williams so entirely lacks. It is what the majority of the political class of the United Kingdom apparently lacks.

There may still be time to find and sack the university professors and schoolmasters and bureaucrats who’ve drummed politically-correct (and civilizationally-suicidal) nonsense into the heads of each of the last few generations of leaders. If this happens, the United Kingdom may yet pull back from the brink.

Alternatively, a surge of American-style evangelical Christianity could help counteract the septic sermons of Rowan Williams-like quislings. For, while I find some of its trappings distasteful, I would far rather live in a society where gays and philanderers were annoyingly and cloyingly exhorted to come to Jesus than in one where they were stoned to death upon discovery. And for whatever reason, those mildly nekulturny Americans have retained the kind of civilizational confidence and moral clarity which has apparently bled out of Britain in the last hundred years.

Failing either the sacking of those who poison the young against their homeland, or a robust Christianity sufficient to counter the apathetic malaise of post-modernity, we the free peoples of Europe face extinction.

So much the worse for us. So much the worse for the future of the world.
