Without Weapons the West Dies

[Fife]

I only heard of the book this afternoon, and it's not out until August, but I'm interested.

Without Weapons the West Dies

What would happen if the world took Pope Francis’ advice (via a tweet)? “Do we really want peace? Then let’s ban all weapons so we don’t have to live in fear of war,” said the pontiff.

While on the surface, the disappearance of all weapons might suggest the inability to do violence, in reality, it would mean the certain annihilation of the West as a civilization.

. . .

What if that scenario were to play over again—but, per the pope’s wish, with no weapons on either side? What if, instead of being terrorized by a minority of migrants, a now totally disarmed Sweden was invaded by massive hordes from every direction?

Francis’ logic, “let’s ban all weapons so we don’t have to live in fear of war” is unsound: we have never needed weapons “to live in fear of war.” As long as the will to do violence exists, violence will be done. A “pope” of all people should know that.

And until such time that masculinity is reclaimed in the West—instead of always and everywhere being denounced as “toxic”—the West is going to need every manmade weapon, deterrent and safeguard available to prevent its own collapse.

The last Pope Urban was Urban VIII. The next man who takes that name will be Urban IX. The day the Enclave elects a man who subsequently selects that name is the day the enemies of our civilization will BTFO for real.

This sounds familiar. Wasn't it a Nostradamus thing?

Oh, there was some weird papacy prophecy. It didn't pan out, though.

The only other place I can think of that you would have heard that name was in the Hyperion novels where the Pope was resurrected and took the name Urban IX before calling a just holy crusade against the transhumanist abominations in the dark of space.

Pope Urban II was the guy who called a crusade to save the Christians in the eastern half of our civilization from Muslim extermination.

Nostradamus predicted a certain number of popes, I think...
