On Studying the History of Religion in the United States
One of the perspectives I take in the study and advance of Religion and Theology in relation to Civics in the U.S. is expressed by the nineteenth-century American esotericist, Alexander Wilder. WHAT IS COVERED ON AMERICAN REPUBLICAN TRADITION CIVIC REPUBLICAN VIRTUE: Many early American thinkers argued that republican self-government requires a virtuous citizenry, and they believed religion…

Eric Shawn and Peter Michael on George Wasinghton and John Hanson in Segment "Crazy American History"
The Fox Nation segment with Eric Shawn and Peter Michael argued that John Hanson (and a handful of others) held the title “President of the United States in Congress Assembled” under the Articles of Confederation (1781-1789).

The History of Leninist and Bolshevik Tactics to Displace Republican Institutions
THE HISTORY OF LENINIST AND BOLSHEVIK TACTICS TO DISPLACE republican institutions is a deeply under-examined chapter in modern political history, especially in the United States. It is however a well-documented case study in how revolutionary movements can systematically undermine liberal-republican forms. Its relative obscurity in American discourse stems from a combination of ideological…
My Intellectual Journey: Politics, Religion and Education
HISTORICAL CONTEXT There was this recent comment from a person betting that I did not know what Socialism, Communism or Marxism was, as if I did not go through phases myself from highschool to mid-college in book clubs & meetings steeped in the political history of Communism. I would say that I do know the history of Russia actually well but only particularly from Catherine the Great (Catherine…

“Nam et ipsa scientia potestas est.” (“For knowledge itself is power.”) FRANCIS BACON, MEDITATIONES SACRAE (1597) A deep contradiction lies at the heart of much contemporary American political rhetoric: anti-republican and anti-Enlightenment intellectual structures, originally forged by Counter-Revolution thinkers, are routinely deployed to defend the Constitution, the Founders, and republican…

The Founders, Montesquieu, Machiavelli, and Harrington Warning Against the People’s Love of Political Fantasy
We can advise the people not to create myths or engage in myth-perpetuation about those who rule over you or govern them, but according to Machiavelli, the vulgar crowd, which he says the world consists chiefly of, prefer illusions. “Enlighten the people generally, and tyranny and oppressions of body and mind will vanish like evil spirits at the dawn of day.”— Thomas Jefferson, Letter to Pierre…
