De motu populorum

I remember sitting in class in seminary, my mind wandering, and reflecting of how much human misery is caused by human migration. People showing up right next to you whom you do not like and who do not like you. I wondered why there was not a branch of moral theology on The Movement of Peoples, De Motu Populorum.

Came to mind again this morning, with a piece about NY Liberal Jew Roger Cohen's encounter with London anti-Semitism. The piece reminds us that in 1290 the English expelled all the Jews from Britain.

The knee-jerk position is that this was an evil act. Well, it was certainly bad --in the short term-- for the expelled Jews. But my question is this: if there is a group which is going to be subjected to the dislike of the natives through all sorts of misery, including murder...is it kinder to let them stay or to send them somewhere else?

Good fences make good neighbors.

We seem to think that countries (most especially White Western countries) have no right to refuse entry to any particular ethnic or religious group. Wouldn't that be racist?!

The wrong question. And a stupid one.

People live in groups, tribes, nations, with those like them, not at meetings of the UN General Assembly. It is in fact unkind to put people into danger by letting them live next or or among other peoples who despise them. What ever gave anyone the idea that any human group could live well with any other human group?

Take Israel, for example. Imagine how easy it would be for a non-Jew to emigrate there. And why should it be? It's a Jewish state.

And the moral rule now is that White Westerners have to make believe they are happy about this "diversity" which bumper stickers tell is "is our strength". It would be far more charitable and real to make immigration policy based entirely on the needs and welfare of our own country, without the slightest regard for the so-called moral issues of racism, etc.

Any sane country would.

Unfortunately, America has been losing its mind for the last fifty years, so that now we face the certainty of Whites becoming a minority in the USA by 2040. What dominant group with an ounce of sense ever engineered its own reduction to minority status in its own homeland? And we all know what paradises countries are with non-white majorities. I am glad I will not live to see the worst of it all.
