“Each document has been destroyed or falsified, each e-book rewritten, each image repainted, each statue and avenue constructing renamed, each date modified. And the method continues daily and minute by minute. Historical past has stopped. There’s nothing however the infinite current, during which the Occasion is at all times proper.” – George Orwell 1984
Orwell's 1984 is more and more sounding like a playbook for Western 'progressive' society within the UK. As a small instance, think about final week's re-opening of the £27 million renovated museum in Perth, Scotland.
My pal went together with it and was considerably shocked to seek out out the next.
The Return of Paganism
In Scotland, the land of the Enlightenment and the Reformation, the land of studying and science, the federal government is now sponsoring an exhibition that informs us that “the River Tay has at all times been Perth's important artery, shaping the land and offering meals. sources and acts as a portal to the supernatural world' (below the heading 'Sacred Waters').
I lived subsequent door to Tay for a few years and had no thought it may take me via the wardrobe to Narnia or via the trying glass or that it was a portal to a different dimension! And not one of the good individuals of Tayside ever thought so both. However the pagans who’re rewriting Scottish historical past and tradition don't care. No marvel so many Scottish youngsters are scientifically illiterate if that is the nonsense being taught by the federal government and native councils.
The exhibition goes on to speak about daggers and axes that have been “meant” as choices. When my pal requested concerning the Maori costume, they have been advised that among the employees acquired up at 5 within the morning to bless it earlier than the museum opened.
The demonization of Christianity
There’s one reference to John Knox preaching a sermon that was adopted by a riot – however the plaque goes on to say: “Knox grew to become an icon and objects related to him grew to become virtually like relics.” An instance of historic and theological illiteracy that’s exhausting to beat. Knox's preaching was towards idols and icons. The Scottish Reformation was towards idols and icons. There is no such thing as a proof in any respect that Knox was ever thought-about an icon.
The aim of this, after all, is to rewrite historical past and recommend that the Scottish Reformation was actually only a cult takeover – which we now have fortunately now gotten rid of. As soon as the Calvinists are gone, we will eliminate the Catholics too – and return to the purity of our pagan previous – the place we fortunately entered different worlds…
My pal determined to seek out out why there was so little about Christianity within the museum – in any case, Perth, Dundee and St Andrews have been the center of the Scottish Reformation. The reply was apparent: “That was prior to now—that is now. You’ve had 2,000 years to exhibit Christianity.”
Along with the truth that the museum is meant to indicate the previous and the historic ignorance of the worker, there’s an much more stunning triumphalist angle: now we now have taken over! We’re decolonizing the previous.
The Nationwide, the house paper of the Scottish Nationwide Occasion, went as far as to boast of this rewriting of historical past. “The Perth Museum does a variety of new issues; it expands on rewriting so many wrongs that want rewriting, and fairly brilliantly shows our much-prized stone.”
After all, when Christianity goes away, it’s a must to substitute it with one other faith. Along with the return to paganism and inexperienced faith, the third a part of this new godless trinity is LGBTQI+ ideology. A whole ground is devoted to it. Because the museum's web site explains: “In 4 themed galleries, uncover the unicorn's enduring presence all through historical past and its position as a logo of Scotland's altering heritage and identification via iconic loans from world wide, interactive shows and 7 newly commissioned artworks. the unicorn as a contemporary image of the LGBTQI+ neighborhood.” They conveniently neglect that the unicorn was chosen because the nationwide animal of Scotland at the very least partially due to its perceived “masculinity”. However that's poisonous now, so let's rewrite it as a intercourse image.
The colonization of the museum by progressive imperialists bent on remaking all the pieces of their picture and rewriting historical past to go well with their fancies and present political and social ideologies just isn’t restricted to Perth Museum. That is taking place throughout Britain, funded by governments (I’m wondering if the UK authorities is aware of that over £10 million of their cash is getting used to advertise this type of ideology).
One other instance is delivered to us by Pink Information who tells us that Hastings Museum and Artwork Gallery has an exhibit displaying a pair of stuffed pheasants demonstrating 'queer' transgender conduct in animals!
Perth's museum has been transformed to deal with the well-known Stone of Future – the stone on which Scottish kings have been topped and just lately returned from Westminster Abbey in 1996. However the museum is extra about selling the present progressive agenda than serving an correct account of Scottish historical past.
When schoolboy events are paraded and taught the pagan, progressive, sexual ideology of immediately's cultural imperialists, it might appear inevitable that this nightmare can be Scotland's destiny. But maybe there’s a signal within the Scottish Highlands that factors to one thing else?
In 1827, within the small neighborhood of Glenmoriston, preacher Finlay Munro preached the phrase of God. He acquired a variety of abuse (he must be grateful – he'd be reported for hate speech in immediately's Scotland!). Munro responded to this abuse by declaring that the very clay during which he stood would bear witness to the reality of his phrases, and that his marks would final till his hearers met their sentence, or, in response to some witnesses, till Judgment Day. Nearly 200 years later you’ll be able to nonetheless go to Glenmoriston and see these steps.
Whether or not you consider the story or not, what is definite is that the Church in Scotland has seen far worse instances and survived. That’s the reason the image of the church is the burning bush – “burning however not consumed”. The politicians and ideologies of this world will cross away, however Christ is similar yesterday, immediately and endlessly. Lengthy after the plaques on the Perth Museum are gone and forgotten, the Phrase of God will dwell on. As Jesus promised, “Heaven and earth will cross away, however my phrases is not going to cross away” (Matthew 24:35).
