TraditionalGuy, please answer the questions I asked in the first post of mine on this thread. I wrote, "TraditionalGuy, are you running for office ? Could you please define exactly what a "nation" is ? You seem to be using the post-Westphalian concept of the "nation-state"; please correct me if I am wrong."
I would appreciate it if you would actually address each separate sentence, since each of them either poses or implies a distinct question.
Yes, it is morally wrong to enforce an unjust law, which compulsory "education" is.
Hmm that's strange. I guess Franco's Spain did a crime then?
If it is true that Franco's Spain mandated compulsory education and did not allow schooling at home by the parents or somebody the parents trusted, or no formal schooling at all as the case might be, then yes, General Franco and those who supported his policies committed a crime against the natural law under the heading of injustice to the authority of the father and mother over their children. General Franco did many great things, but unfortunately he was not perfect. His centralisation of the government and disrespect for the ancient local charters (fueros) of the various nations that compose Spain would be another example of imperfection on his part. You should read and learn about these things.
Tell me, were the Carlists and General Zumalacárregui liberals, or are
you the liberal for believing in the modern nation-state ?
Please actually look up the Carlists and the fueros before you write back. This is important for you to know about if you presume to speak publicly about the main players in Spanish both historically and today.
Nationalism is the imbuing of patriotic pride into the young child.
No, nationalism is an ideology that derives from the concept of the nation-state. Patriotism is the virtue of loving one's community and seeking the common good for it according to one's scale of duties, i.e., first one's family, then one's extended family, then one's neighbours, then one's local benefactors and friends, then one's greater region, then one's entire nation, all of which is presupposed by the assumption that one is bound to these people by blood and by them being like oneself, which may or may not be true according to one's circuмstances.
The nation and the child's own ethnicity and race should go beyond family ties.
Wrong. You have an immediate responsibility to your family first and foremost, to your parents and then your potential wife and children. Only after that do you have duties that pertain to your nation and then your country.
But I know I'm wasting my time here with an intellectual such as yourself who just babbles with that typical upper-class language and "analsyes" everything.
Apparently you have a chip on your shoulder about something. I didn't realise that you were such an avid proletarian struggling against the oppression of the classes. As I have not read very much of Marx and Engels, you may have to explain to me how a Catholic could sound so much like a Communist.
That is why it is the man of action and fist, not the man of words and thoughts who win the day.
Hopefully the man of action and fist will have thought about what he is fighting for before he does something rash or evil. Likewise, hopefully the man of thoughts and words will be led in the course of his thinking to take action. And I imagine that the man of thought and action will have more chances of becoming a military officer or statesman than the man of action alone.
I should clarify that ultimately you are wrong. Yes, the great turning points of history are great battles directed by great men who perform great things. But these turning points hinge on ideas and beliefs in the first place.
It is better for the man to have a healthy body with strong character, rather than some over-educated intellectual.
I completely agree, though it is certainly worse to have a healthy body with bad character and false beliefs than to have an unhealthy body and good character and true beliefs, don't you think ? Naturally, it would be best to have a healthy body, good character, and true beliefs
Of course the same goes for the woman.
Yes, certainly, though once again you seem to be lionising the lower class, as if all of its members have good character. Good people and bad people can be found in all classes and with varying levels of education and/or intelligence. But most are bad across the board.
But yet again only a nationalist and specifically one of the working-class can understand this notion.
More class warfare, eh ? Heavy stuff for a so-called pale-conservative Anglo-American. I wasn't aware that being part of the lower class gave people special knowledge of the dynamics of virtue. Tell me, were the Scholastic Doctors and Church Fathers just wasting their time reading and writing so much rather than going out to the quarries and dockyards to rally up the laborers for a putsch ? How come you spend so much time reading socialist literature (from which your rhetoric seems to have come) and so little time getting in street fights against drug dealers with your fellow squadristi ?
The intellectual such as yourself cannot understand anything at all about the nation
Apparently you don't even know what a nation is, since you haven't defined it.
...since you do believe in no nations at all, but globalism.
You seem to know hardly anything about me. That's okay. I will tell you that, actually, I do believe in nations and do not believe in globalism. I used to work in manual labour, too, around people who were almost completely uneducated in a region of people who are almost completely uneducated, something I knew
before choosing that way of life. And these people are part of my own nation of Acadians, to whom I am happily bound by blood, history, character, and tradition. Our particular Gallo-Roman race is not known for our intellectual accomplishment so much as our simple and honest way of life, our preservation of Latin manhood and ancient Roman and Celtic customs, and our Catholic Faith. I am curious to know if you think that my zeal to defend and preserve all of these things against the corrupting influences of the US and international Judaeo-Masonic Communism is an example of my lack of belief in nations or my belief in nations. Which is it ?
