Chapter 2, Ethnicity.

Ethnicity is based on two factors, the first and more important factor is common ancestry and the second factor is common geography which at often times this too is important. Ethnicity is the Heredity of bloodlines and a socially defined categorization of identification applying to collectives and individuals of a belonging to a People. The term ethnic is derived from the Greek word ἔθνος ethnos (more precisely, from the adjective ἐθνικός ethnikos, which was loaned into Latin as ethnicus). The inherited English-language term for this concept is folk. Ethnicity is an important means by which people may identify with a larger group. Ethnicity is not Religiosity yet many Ethnic groups may predominantly belong to a Religion, for example the Jewish people are not a Ethnic group yet there exists ethnic groups that are predominantly Jewish. There are many excellent examples of Ethnic groups that have a predominant religion however there are three examples of this that I feel urge to share. The first example I feel necessary to give is the Ashkenazim indeed the Ashkenazim are an Ethnic group that is predominantly Jewish yet not all of the Ashkenazim are Jewish many of the Ashkenazi Men marry Women who are not Jewish yet have offspring through those Women and neglect to raise their Children as Jewish thus not all Ashkenazim are Jewish also take into account that Judaism is a Religion and like any religion anyone can convert although according to everything I know who has credible word to speak about Judaism it is said that Judaism is the hardest religion to convert to however this can be done as a matter of fact most of my Jewish friends are converts to Judaism. The second example I have a urge to mention would undoubtedly be that Mexicans are a ethnic group that is predominately Roman Catholic yet not every Mexican is Roman Catholic as a matter of fact some Mexicans are known to identify as Muslims and it is a well known fact that the Roman Catholic Church has within its membership many ethnic groups. The third example and in my opinion the best example is that Persians (the people of Iran) are an Ethnic group that is predominately Muslim yet not every Persian is a follower of Muslim religion and it is clear that not every Muslim was born from Persian ethnic origin, in fact a large population of the Persians are completely Jewish and a certain percentage of the Persians are Zoroastrians. These three ethnicities however did not arise the same way. The Ashkenazim are a result of Judaism. The Mexicans did not arise as a result of the Roman Catholic religion, the Mexicans are the same people as the Aztec Nation and they used to be predominately a type of polytheist. The Persians did not arise as a result of the Muslim religion, Zoroastrianism used to be the predominate Religion of Iran. The distinction between race and ethnicity is considered highly problematic only because there is a such thing as Ethnicity while there really is no such thing as Race in fact most everyone who referring to race when put into a logical context is usually referring to Ethnicity. Sometimes ethnic groups are subject to prejudicial attitudes and actions by the state or its constituents indeed this is more often than not commonplace in Statism. Ethnic groups in the Continent of Africa number in the hundreds, each generally having their own language or least have their own dialect of a language. African in of it self is a bigger Ethnicity that contains many Sub-ethnic groups likewise Asian in of it self is a bigger Ethnicity that contains many Sub-ethnic groups. Race is a Fantasy based not on Religion but Cultural Misconceptions of the Other and these misconceptions are not always based on Hate or Dislike of the Other as is often assumed although it can be the result thereof. Racialism is the Cultural concept of a Group's desire not to be blended with an outside collective because of misconceptions about bloodline purity due to fear and distrust of outside collectives. Racism is Ultra-Racialism that is to say that Racism is Racialism in its most extreme tendencies. Racism also gives rise to Racial Supremacy and Racial Supremacy has been expressed a lot in the Twentieth Century and sadly is still expressed in this Twenty-first Century.

In the Twentieth Century the Jim Crow Laws of the United States of America represented Racial Supremacy in particular Jim Crow represented White Supremacy in the United States of America.

I am proud to have helped my fellow Byzantine Catholic Nationals establish the revolutionary liberation front known as Byzantine Catholic Nation, I am also very honored and humbled to have assisted my Black National Comrades to establish the revolutionary liberation front known as Black Nation. Byzantine Catholic Nation is in the struggle to help Byzantine Catholics realize that We the Byzantine Catholics constitute a Nation, we need National Cultural Autonomy and it must be understood that not every Nation has an ethnic factor to it. The Byzantine Catholic Nation has no ethnic factor, just as the Jewish Nation has no ethnic factor. Just as the Jewish Nation is based on Culture and Religion the Byzantine Catholic Nation is also based on Culture and Religion. However the Black Nation is based on Culture and Ethnicity. The Black Nation has its ethnicity from mixed African heredity and the shared common ancestry originating from Africa. Ethnicity is the continuation of a people through common ancestry, this applies to the Celts, Mexicans, Spaniards, Blacks, Italians, and Romanis yet this cannot apply to the Jews, Byzantine Catholics, or Hindus it is Nationalism that has managed to confuse what would be self evident. There is no White Nation, yet there is a Black Nation.

Blacks are distinguished from Africans because they are the descendants of the Slaves brought to Europe and the Americas by Colonialists, Black Nationality developed over time going from slavery to the oppression of Jim Crow and Jane Crow laws then to the struggle for liberation that still is ongoing, this has brought about a very interesting Culture. This is how Black is distinguished from African, African Americans can trace their origins to a particular place on the continent of Africa where as Black Americans can not. So this means that Black is a description for those who have the ancestry coming from the African slave trades. White however is just the term that describes eurocentricity, this is why both myself and Herbert identify as European not as White. Those who identify as White identify with eurocentricity whether they realize this or not. Anyone who is Black is born into that Nation, anyone who is White is doing so because of eurocentric Schooling, I denounce Whiteness, I reject White guilt as eurocentric guilt and I denounce White supremacy as eurocentric Racial supremacy and I hope that before I die to do all I can to make reparations to all who have suffered under the Colonialism of The White Lie. White Supremacy is not the only version of Racial Supremacy yet it is the most persistent. In the Twentieth Century the system of Apartheid was enforced in South Africa the political construct of the Apartheid system of South Africa was one of the most horrific displays of White Supremacy. The Apartheid system of South Africa was a White Supremacist policy enforced through legislation by the National Party (NP) governments, who were the ruling party from 1948 to 1994, of South Africa, under which the rights of the majority indigenous inhabitants of South Africa were curtailed and Afrikaner minority rule was maintained. Apartheid was developed after World War II by the Afrikaner-dominated National Party and Broederbond organizations and was practiced also in South West Africa, which was administered by South Africa under a League of Nations mandate (revoked in 1966 via United Nations Resolution 2145), until it gained independence as Namibia in 1990. Apartheid is a word that describes the tyrannical enforcement of Racial Supremacy that is textbook and worthy of Scholarship and the Zionist State of Israel is a perfect example of Apartheid that started in the Twentieth Century and is ongoing here in the Twenty-first Century. The Palestinian/Israeli conflict perfectly fits the profile of the crime of Apartheid. The crime of Apartheid is defined by the 2002 Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court as inhumane acts of a character similar to other crimes against humanity "committed in the context of an institutionalized regime of systematic oppression and domination by one racial group over any other racial group or groups and committed with the intention of maintaining that regime." the definition of Apartheid in it self reinforces this notion for behold . . . Apartheid (Afrikaans pronunciation: [ɐˈpɑːrtɦɛit]; from Afrikaans "the state of being apart") therefore the British inspired domination of Israel's domination over Palestine fits the definition of Apartheid perfectly.

 
Ethnicity is not Race because Race does not exist. Furthermore the Human species that is said to be made in the image of God according to the Christian religion all comes from Noah and I take this to be a moral and just protest against the notion of race. All of the Ethnic groups can be traced to common origin one way or another and so the notion of different races that would suggest that not all humans are really human or that "Their humanity is not authentic." due to deranged beliefs about race is not only pure nonsense it is also immoral and runs contrary to the lessons of Religion as well as the progressive direction that Philosophy is taking in this early part of this Twenty-first Century. The largest ethnic groups in this twenty-first century comprises hundreds of millions of individuals (Han Chinese, Arabs, Bengali people) and the smallest can be limited to a few thousand individuals (numerous indigenous peoples worldwide). Ethnic groupings come under threat most often from Humanism. Indeed the Anti-Humanitarian construct of Humanism is more deadly to Ethnic groups than even the forces of Racial Supremacy. Racial Supremacy holds an obvious danger to any Ethnic group it is geared against however Humanism poses even more danger to Ethnic groups. While many Ethnic groups have suffered and struggled under the oppression of Racial Supremacy this struggle often forms greater unity for Ethnic groups suffering under such oppression and in time such Ethnic groups evolve into a stronger Ethnicity that consequently forms its own Culture and while Ethnicity and Culture are not the same thing a group can be and often is both an Ethnicity and Culture, this is what caused the existence of the Black Nation to emerge on the world scene. If a Group is both Ethnic and Cultural that makes it much stronger. Humanism is a philosophy invented by Europeans. Humanism is also the first construct of Westerndom. Marxism is a Theory of Humanism and so is Corporatism. Humanism is a practice that focuses a sort of anti-humanitarian Victorianism on the World at large. In other words it is a outlook or system of thought attaching prime importance to human centralization rather than the welfare aims of Humanitarianism or matters of mutual cultivation such as Environmentalism. Humanists do not share a creed; rather, they are unified by their shared search for Human elevation and hedonism regardless of negative consequences. Humanism has at its core the assumption that an individual’s theology is a result of that search and not obedience to orientation. Historically, Humanists have roots first in Christendom and second in Atheist Darwinism. Contemporary Humanists are typically atheist,  protestant-christian, deist or agnostic. Humanists maintain views of Populism and relying very little on facts and Humanism typically ignores most notions of Truth. Humanism typically calls for assimilation of all peoples into a Westernized Human Society the most popular form of this is the Marxist Theory yet it is Corporatism that has been attempting this the most by matters of force and subversion, indeed both Marxism and Corporatism seek the downfall of Ethnic groups by these Humanistic strategies and this is not usually done by total elimination although it usually includes some elimination however assimilation through subversion is much more preferred by Humanists. The best way for Ethnic groups to fight against Humanism is to practice Coexistence. By practicing Coexistence we can destroy the Humanist lie of Color-blindness and instead teach the concept of being lovestruck. Ethnic groups must become lovestruck, I Fredrick Danson can not love the Black Man unless he is a proud Black Man nor can a Black Man love me unless he loves the European Man. Loving each other for who we are and how different we are is sacred and this is what it means to be lovestruck. If we can teach this notion of being lovestruck we can therefore bring about the side by side Coexistence of Unity and Diversity and in doing so we just might be able to finally destroy this evil and most dangerous trend of Westerndom that is referred to as none other than Humanism.
