John Zmirak Discusses His Latest Articles- ‘Anti-Racism:’ The Opiate of the Sheeple The Eric Metaxas Show John Zmirak Jan 11 2025 Other Episodes Big Bad John joins us to discuss the his recent article on the topic of January 6th ‘Anti-Racism:’ The Opiate of the Sheeple By John Zmirak Published on January 6, 2025 John Zmirak I’ve written here before about how antiracism has mutated from a small, healthy organ that served the Body of Christ into a monstrous tumor that threatens to kill it. I’ve analyzed White Guilt as a self-serving status game that white would-be elitists play to outrank other white people — with zero actual regard for the dignity or lives of non-white people, much less for their immortal souls. Now I must reluctantly return to this grim subject as the cascading scandal of Pakistani rape gangs in Britain gets exposed in lurid, soul-crushing detail. Elon Musk and former British Prime Minister Liz Truss have now weighed in on this, so the British establishment knows it can’t imprison everyone who complains about the estimated 250,000 native British girls who’ve been gang-raped and trafficked in just 10 years, disproportionately by Pakistani immigrants. “Your Daughters Are Already Whores” What drove these Muslim imports to think they were entitled to sexually enslave Christians, apart from the long Muslim tradition of sexually enslaving Christians? (By the millions, via the Muslim white slave trade that continued for centuries.) This X post explains the phenomenon in light of Pakistan’s inbred, intensely patriarchal culture: These hundreds of thousands of rapes — many inflicted on minors — were committed with total impunity, with local police and Labour politicians winking at the abuse, rejecting the pleas of victims and even in some cases arresting the hapless parents who tried to rescue their daughters. How and why could this happen? It was supposedly to prevent the rise of racism and avoid helping right-wing politicians who warned — correctly — that mass Third World Muslim immigration was ruining Britain. As a Catholic, hearing that brings back nauseating memories of bishops shuffling pedophile priests from parish to parish instead of calling in the police — supposedly to avoid the danger of “scandal” harming the Church and losing souls. Of course, these leftist politicians in Britain were serving their own religious cause: the post-Civil Rights movement cult of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. That infernal trinity, a three-headed golden calf, is now the idol worshiped by elites throughout the West. Those who refuse to prostrate themselves before this fetish face all the force of a secular inquisition. Britons are now sitting in prison cells for mildly complaining about immigration policy — cells which, not coincidentally, have been emptied of rapists and other assailants to make room for political dissidents. Should We Tell “Noble” Lies? This is happening right now in Britain — the nation that gave us the Magna Carta, parliaments, Common Law, and trial by jury. I was sickened even further when one of my favorite living writers, historian Tom Holland, doubled down on his comment from 10 years ago (before his conversion to Christianity): How noble is a goal that rests on secrecy and lies? Was it noble for Catholic bishops to protect the good name of the priesthood at the price of altar boys who were molested and damaged for life? Why is it any more noble than that to save the good name of deeply dysfunctional foreign communities that are infamous for child marriages and “honor killings”? If Pakistani culture really does accept such practices, it richly deserves contempt — and mass deportations to follow. The bishops who covered up for pedophile priests have been mostly disgraced for it now. They paid out some $3 billion in damages in the U.S. alone (though they made all that money back, dollar for dollar, trafficking immigrants via their taxpayer-funded nonprofits such as Catholic Charities). Will the vast, almost unthinkable scale of child rape in Britain discredit its authoritarian, censorship-happy Labour government and the mute, useless Tory party that only expanded immigration, as if to punish its voters? If We Don’t Fight, the Pagans Will It’s hard to say. You can’t beat something with nothing, and antiracism remains the established church of most of the West. Maybe like the Aztec cult it can go on demanding human sacrifices for centuries because there is no live alternative. Christian churches that have dethroned Jesus Christ and replaced Him with canonized victims such as George Floyd won’t fill the void. They’re not even really Christian, except as cargo cults that use the borrowed imagery and symbols of a religion they’ve become at once too primitive and decadent to understand. If the Church won’t provide an alternative to civilizational suicide, enraged neopagans will. Instead of shaping fetishes out of non-whites, they’ll make whiteness an idol. The result will be ugly and violent, and the pasty-faced churchmen who willingly lived by lies will watch it all helplessly from their fainting couches, without even the decency to despise themselves for causing it. Please Support The Stream: Equipping Christians to Think Clearly About the Political, Economic, and Moral Issues of Our Day. Tom Holland, of all people, should know better. His brilliant book Dominion showed how Western notions of equality, fairness, and tolerance all emerged from the Gospel, not Greece or Rome. He even acknowledged that the woke movement was Christianity’s illegitimate child. But he’s too comfortably ensconced in British intellectual circles to recognize that this post-Christian bastard is trying to murder its father. And, frankly, he lives in a nice, safe neighborhood where no Pakistani gangs are likely to abduct and gang rape his children. Perhaps every British academic and politician should be forcibly relocated to more “diverse” parts of the country. Let’s see how long it takes them to start sending checks to Tommy Robinson. Rene Girard, in his books such as I See Satan Fall Like Lightning, warned that the post-Christian substitute religion of Victimism is actually crueler, more perverse, and more opposed to the Gospel than any ancient pagan religion. It’s also so frankly absurd and suicidal that it will burn out and destroy itself. But how many real victims, including young women with scars and trauma, will it claim before it collapses?

He is co-author with Jason Jones of “God, Guns, & the Government.” John Zmirak’s new book: No Second Amendment, No First by John Zmirak Available March 19, 2024 Today’s Left endlessly preaches the evils of “gun violence." It is a message increasingly echoed from the nation’s pulpits, presented as common-sense decency and virtue. Calls for “radical non-violence” are routinely endowed with the imprimatur of religious doctrine. But what if such teachings were misguided, even damaging? What if the potential of a citizenry to exercise force against violent criminals and tyrannical governments is not just compatible with church teaching, but flows from the very heart of Biblical faith and reason? What if the freedoms we treasure are intimately tied to the power to resist violent coercion? This is the long-overdue case John Zmirak makes with stunning clarity and conviction in No Second Amendment, No First. A Yale-educated journalist and former college professor, Zmirak shows how the right of self-defense against authoritarian government was affirmed in both the Old and New Testaments, is implied in Natural Law, and has been part of Church tradition over the centuries. Zmirak further shows how today’s mounting threats to the gun rights guaranteed by the Second Amendment are inexorably linked to the HELP ACU SPREAD THE WORD!
