    Unfortunately on this issue the usually correct Dr Starkey is talking arrant & risible tosh. Most of the laws in this country - in respect certainly to serious crimes - are founded in common law, i.e they were formulated by unelected judges and handed down from above. Furthermore all laws, including those founded by parliamentary legislation, are interpreted once again by unelected judges. The fact that English judges are not only unelected, but even today come mostly from the upper echelons of society, makes an utter nonsense of Dr Starkey's jingoistic, fallacious and fanciful attempt to differentiate an English citizen's relationship with the law as compared to the European model. We are ruled by an unelected and utterly self-serving judiciary, and Parliament is merely a fig leaf behind which judges hide their rampant, unaccountable and profoundly corrupt modus operandi.

    Essentially, at the end Mr Starkey comes down onto the side of religion. He says that for Britain to be great it must be a values driven society deeply tied and attached to our heritage and history and thus transcendent in our drive. His only complaint is with the Christian religion, if we were pagan in our religion like the ancient Greco-Romans before their conversion then that would be perfect for Mr Starkey. I must confess to having sympathy for this point of view as the values of Christianity largely led to the destruction of the past Western world and darkening of the European mind.

    • @Alfred5555
      @Alfred5555 7 днів тому

      Starkey, like most, doesn't seem to have read much about Germanic paganism, that is to say, the traditional ways of English people. He often seems to only see things for their appearance sake, a certain word, name, outfit, item, and he'll point out that it's often Roman or Greek in origin, essentially he can't see past a classicist education, he knows the classicism that is taught and commonly spoken about, he doesn't really seem to know classicism as a whole as a historical era, just the Greco-Roman stuff. When I first became aware of Starkey's political side, I was very sympathetic to Christianity, I had absorbed the bible, heard the professions, came to a deep feeling about the character of Jesus and the nature of the Yahweh god, etc and I first I didn't know what to make of Starkey's atheism. Years past and I had quite a u-turn on Christianity, I came to view it on my own quite similarly to how Starkey seems too and probably with a more in depth dislike. However I still find atheism quite nonsensical, I realised that I had essentially come around to what I imagine (and from my reading of plenty of ancient writings) is the pagan position. And as time went on I've become fond of what I've seen of the broadly Germanic paganism, based on what Romans claimed of them and what their own sagas and poems contain, not worshipping trees or any such things, but with all that we know in modern day, just seeing the psychology, sociology, and spiritual side of things, and I think I land on the position of definite democracy but with focus on goodness (something Starkey doesn't say, most our moral, emotive and action words are Germanic, such as "good"), essentially the phrase Starkey uses which I think is a good analogy, "English Shinto", not quite, "Worshipping themselves", but consciously attuning themselves in the world to their own soul. I could go on about my own feelings, but I do think a form of modern paganism, that is actual paganism, the pagan mindset of old, not modern wu wu tree worship, but the historical paradigm of the term "paganism", meaning "the common people's ways", would be good for anyone. And we're blessed to have some invaluable ancient texts from our particular stripe of paganism, the Germanic languages, still surviving to show some guidance in archetypes, ideas, and principles so we need not start from complete scratch with the soul searching.

    So glad you mentioned ALICE PERKINS (Chair of Post Office, and wife of Jack Straw, MP) because there is a stench surrounding her: not least in the way she 'suggested' people, known to her, for high office within the Post Office. This was revealed during questioning by Jason Beer, KC, at the Enquiry. 'Revolving doors' spring to mind. BLAIR's Garter Knighthood was a real error on the part of our late Sovereign Lady, Elizabeth II. Charles III would do well to rescind it. BLAIR is a traitor to the people of this Realm; and you do not reward traitors with Honours. He is a Globalist-Communist, who places his wish for World Presidency over the particularity of care for this United Kingdom. He is David Goodhart's archetypical 'ANYWHERE' person. This is a status for those with wealth, and a self-opinion founded on hubris. Such people consider that - were they run over by a bus - the World would stop! They regard themselves as that vital.

    It is so rare these days for somebody to know (or even to be interested in knowing) what they are talking about, and so it is no surprise that Starkey left the university system, if indeed he left it rather than being kicked out for having the arrogance to think for himself. But Starkey is quite wrong here. The whole Common Law system is based on the belief that there is such a thing as justice. It seeks to search for it in an imperfect (fallen) world, but it is a spiritual, yes spiritual, commitment. As Bede was keen to point out England was a Christian foundation. The rejection of Roman Catholicism was based on a rejection of paganism and a re-assertion of Christian values - namely that there is a transcendent ground for good and evil. The claim that politics ought to be value neutral is Liberalism not Conservatism.

    • @Alfred5555
      @Alfred5555 7 днів тому

      But England doesn't have a Christian foundation, that's just propaganda. England, the English, the Angles, likely long predate Christianity as a whole, let alone the Germanic tradition they come. It's no coincidence that Beowulf was the most common story in all of ancient England, and one of the oldest examples of Germanic language text altogether. Protestantism in history, to a naïve eye, might look like an attempt to reassert a more fundamental Christianity as apposed to a paganised Catholicism, but it simply isn't. Firstly, Protestant nations hardly agree on anything theologically. The reality is that it was a democratic feeling. Catholicism was a form of globalism, it's no coincidence either that it was Germanic nations who most firmly turned Protestant, almost as if there's something cultural about it (interesting note, the Duchy of Prussian, the remnant of the Teutonic Order was the first state to profess Protestantism). Nations simply didn't like the political power that a central supreme Catholicism was having in their daily lives. As some have said, Henry VIII and the Reformation was the original Brexit. So, the politics of it all is obvious and well recorded. But spiritually we can see what happen after these countries turned to Protestantism, they became generally much more patriotic, more democratic (in a productive way), more scientifically minded and culturally more creative, whether it be the literature of Shakespeare or the mass of classical German composers, or in the case of the tiny Duchy of Prussian, rose to overtake all it's deeply catholic neighbours and hold a central European empire that absorbed the Holy Roman Empire and reforged it into modern Germany. Now you can move the goal posts and say "Ah well yes, those of the fruits of a more true Christianity", that's obvious nonsense. I'm not saying they're the fruits of rejecting Christianity either because that's not what they did, but they did reject a centralised de facto globalist rule. They moved out from under a hegemony into a democratic space, essentially a more pagan space, if you know that that word simply means "common people's ways". Of course the religiosity didn't necessarily lose any intensity, though it's being noticed today the Protestant nations are essentially atheist nations, but that's because of a double sided effect of people thinking paganism is about worshipping trees, rather than it's true meaning, which is simple a cohort of people thinking and living for themselves with their own best beliefs and traditions.

    The Church has influenced our constitution through the natural law. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_rights_and_legal_rights The concept of natural law has a rich history in the Catholic Church, and its development has been influenced by various thinkers and theologians. In England, the Catholic Church has played a significant role in shaping the understanding of natural law. One notable figure who contributed to the development of natural law in England is Richard Hooker. The Catholic Church holds the view of natural law introduced by Albertus Magnus and elaborated by Thomas Aquinas, particularly in his Summa Theologica. This view is also shared by some Protestants, including Anglican writer C.S. Lewis. The Church understands human beings as consisting of body and mind, the physical and the non-physical (or soul perhaps), and that the two are inextricably linked.

      One of the best litmus tests and reveals of delusion I think is. Does a person think Europe succeeded because of Christianity, or, was Christianity spread by the success of Europe.

      @@Alfred5555 the latter I would say, Christianity didn't value history or science. It was once European nations moved beyond matters of doctrinal faith and sought knowledge of how things worked and recovered and taught old pre-Christian texts. That technological and organisational progress permitted expansion trade and conquest. Christianity got carried along by that success.

    'Woke believe there is a single truth'. When they can't make up their mind how many genders there are? Give me a break. They are reacting against that which is the one single Truth. Starkey as an atheist can't understand this. Great interview btw.

    It's impossible to be right wing and Christian. European civilization has been fundamentally a left wing project since Christianity. Jesus would not be saying "yes we must protect our borders and have more babies so our lineage can survive in the course of evolution." Paul seemed to think it was preferable to not have children. And so did the most pious Christians, monks, priests, etc.... he also didn't seem to care about race or ethnicity, there is no jew or Greek, male nor female. His words. Lastly, Jesus would not be saying "yes you must believe to save your massive empire and civilization. Christianity was fundamentally anti empire and civilization. A right wing Christian is the most hilarious paradox. Even funnier than a trans person waving a Palestinian flag.

      I disagree. The modern interpretation of Christianity is left wing, and most people reject that form. Historically it's been quite possible to be both politically conservative and Christian. To give one example, I have heard a sermon that completely disregards multiculturalism. Whilst it is correct to show kindness to strangers, if a foreigner lives amongst you they have no rights until they have completely adopted your culture for three generations. PS I never did like Paul much, Peter and James are more interesting.

      What you say is fundamentally true. It leads me the conclusion that in truth, no nation as a state has every really been Christian, mainly because it's just absurd beyond the barest simple teachings on kindness (which as Plato pointed out, such things come naturally to good people, "good people don't need laws to tell them how to live responsibly"). I've actually heard Christians say, while arguing with a Ukrainian atheist, that if he, as a modern English Christian, was teleported back in time to 13th century Ukraine, he would find more peace and commonality with those people due to the magical bond of Christianity, than the modern Ukrainian atheist who speaks and knows the people and culture intuitively. And of course, 99% of the time, when asking a Christian what they actually believe in or know about their own faith, you realise they're just basically pagans. They've never read the bible, never looked into Christian history, don't actually know any quoted teachings from Jesus, etc. They just live by their personal moral compass, but have been tricked into thinking that's the same as church dogma or the bible. It's a lot of non-thinking going on really. If the same amount of casual faith was put into something like Beowulf or some sagas, things would be very different, and I'm not necessarily saying better or worse, just the fact that there is in fact a great difference between Christian subconscious 9even if it's quite faux and ignorant) and any variety of pagan subconscious.

      @@Alfred5555 I don't know anyone who thinks it is a perfect text. There are various translations for one thing, Genesis was not even written down until the Babylonian enslavement for another. So ofcourse different interpretations are possible. Most serious people I know use the King James Version, or earlier translations. Many leftist churches are banning it so as not to hurt the feelings of fornicators etc. As for the New Testament, the four gospels were chosen by Constantine from hundreds in existence. So even they are politically rather than divinely selected. As for the sermon I mentioned it was several years ago and from the Old Testament, I don't recall Jesus actually speaking out on the subject in the gospels we use. As for your larger argument crusaders fought for the cross. Throughout most of history Christians have only had to treat fellow Christians well, and even then, sins can be atoned. The church has become soft and politically left and people have left in droves. Another reformation is occurring with people meeting in private homes.
