A Special Report on the National Emergency in the United States of America Undermining The Constitution A HISTORY OF LAWLESS GOVERNMENT By Thomas James Norton Preface The writing of this book was impelled (or compelled) by the very manifest indifference of the people of the United States to the constitutional doctrines of their country. This had been developing so rapidly that all ideas of constitutionalism seemed to have passed out of the American mind. That is, indefensible proposals and practices against the plainest limitations on power set in the Constitution provoked no objections even from the Bar. For two decades no great debate on a constitutional subject had been heard in either House of Congress. The National Education Association, theoretically representing the teachers of the country, had for years been passing resolutions favoring whatever was before the public of un-American import, especially for getting the imperial Government at Washington, through "Federal aid," to take over the shaping in school of American ideas. Under the cloak of "academic freedom" men in the universities belittled those who wrote the Constitution and pronounced their work faulty and outmoded. The schools, while neglecting to give thorough courses in our history, and especially in constitutional history or the history of Liberty, admitted objectionable textbooks and periodicals.

History Literature Essays Platforms ... Discussion Search American Imperialism: The Menace of the Greatest Capitalist World Power By Jay Lovestone Page Chapter III The American Colonial Empire American Colonialism In more ways than one does the American imperial and colonial empire resemble the Roman empire of old. But the most outstanding resemblance of the policy of the Roman republic of yesterday to the modern American capitalist imperialistic republic of today, lies in the management of the colonies and in the interference with domestic affairs in the various spheres of influence. The American military governor generals of the colonial possessions are the exact prototypes of the procurators and pro-consuls governing the provinces of the old Roman empire. In Rome men were given the office of pro-consul or procurator in order to redeem either their personal fortunes or those of their political friends and masters. On exactly the same principle are our colonial military governor generals chosen today. General Leonard Wood was sent into the Philippines to force upon the Filipinos an economic policy which would enable him to repay in valuable concessions the powerful bankers and manufacturers who financed his primary campaign in 1920 to the cost of $2,000,000.

Julius Caesar and The Roman Empire Derek Vigon See my 3-D project. The Death of Julius Caesar and the Beginning of The Roman Empire Julius Caesar By 50 B.C., the Roman Republic had grown tremendously. Society had changed from a small farming community to one of rich and greedy landowners who ignored the poor. Dishonest leaders kept money from RomeÕs wars, and the poor rebelled. Roman society began to fall apart, and power-hungry generals in the army began to fight each other for power. Julius Caesar was an ambitious general who knew he had to gain military respect to become the leader of Rome. Caesar did gain the respect he wanted, yet other ambitious military leaders competed with him for power. Eventually, they realized that the only way to get rid of him was to kill him. CaesarÕs legacy of power lived on when his adopted son Octavian (also known as Augustus) fought and won political power. The Roman Republic died when Caesar, declared himself dictator, and the Roman Empire began under Augustus. Roman records tell us that Julius Caesar was born between 102 and 100 B.C. He died on March 15, 44 B.C. He had a long political career with many different positions. Julius Caesar returned to Rome in July, 45 B.C. after military victory in Gaul, and declared himself dictator for life. He was given four triumphs for his successes in Gaul, Egypt, Asia Minor and North Africa. No other Roman had ever received so many. (A triumph was a fantastic staged exhibition including some sea fights, land battles with elephants and prisoners paraded through the streets).

Here is a starker landscape, not planted with vineyards or olive groves, but rather divided up for grain fields and sheep pastures. The hill consists of clay and sandstone from the Pliocene period, and is subject to severe erosion. Landslides and mudslides are responsible for the "Baize," deep crevasses which have already swallowed up entire Etruscan necropolises. The ancient settlement of Badia, located outside of town, is also in danger of sliding into the depths. The first settlements on this hill date back to the New Stone Age. After the Villanova period, these setClements united into a town that became one of the 12 members of the Etruscan League. Remnants of the wall enclosure, the Ports all'Arco adorned with mysterious heads (4th century B.C.), as well as the Acropolis, testify to the former importance of the one-time settlement of Velathris.

Nature's Eternal Religion Book II: The Salvation Chapter Twenty-Five: Horatius at the Bridge The Romans were a brave and noble people. In the Golden Age of classical history they were supreme. The White Race can be eternally proud of what the Romans accomplished. Our debt to them is overwhelming. We can learn a great deal from what they built. We can also learn much from their failure to protect their wonderful race from disintegration. For several centuries after the founding of their settlement, the Romans were but an inconsequential people, holding out amid constant struggles, a very small portion of Italian territory. From about 350 B.C. on, however, their territory expanded rapidly. Within a century they had conquered the whole peninsula of Italy. By the beginning of the Christian era, Rome was master of all the lands bordering on the Mediterranean, virtually, that is, of the then known world. The Roman Empire thus established in all its glory and grandeur lasted another five centuries. It was not brought to ruin by the Vandals and the Huns, who, we are told invaded it. No, not at all. It was disintegrated from within as by a cancer — a cancer produced by the Jews. The name of the cancer was Christianity.

HOME TIME AND SPACE PREHISTORY MESOPOTAMIA ... Latin Christianity Constantine and Constantinople Christianity Most of the people who lived near Jerusalem were Jewish. The Romans were pag ans, but they allowed the Jews to practice their faith and did not force them worship Roman gods. About AD30, a holy man named Jesus began to attract a following in the Roman province of Judea. Judea is part of the modern nation of Israel. His followers came to believe that Jesus was the son of the God of the Jews and that he performed miracles. The followers of Jesus angered Roman authorities because they refused to follow either Jewish or Roman laws. The authorities arrested and crucified Jesus. Three days after his execution, Jesus' followers said they saw him risen from the dead. The followers of Jesus called him Christ. Christ is a Greek word that means "chosen one," because they believed he was chosen by God to be his messenger. In time the followers of Jesus became known as Christians. The Christians taught that people's sins would be forgiven if they became Christian. This message was not successful with many Jews, but many pagans responded to the idea of Christian salvation. Many fervent believers carried the message of Jesus throughout the Roman Empire. One of the most successful was a Greek-speaking Jew named Paul of Tarsus, known to Christians as Saint Paul. As a young man, he helped to persecute Christians, but one day he had a vision in which he believed Jesus spoke to him from heaven. Paul spent the rest of his life thinking and writing about Christianity and winning new converts to the faith. Through the persistence of Paul and other Christian missionaries, small Christian communities developed throughout the Roman Empire.

Timeline Special Features About the Film Classroom Resources ... Jews in Roman Times Early Christians Early Christians After the death of Jesus, word of his teachings spread to Jewish communities outside Palestine, but soon Paul and other apostles and missionaries began to preach to non-Jews as well. Keith Bradley : It would've been very difficult for Christianity to spread as dramatically and quickly throughout the ancient world as it did had Paul not been able to draw on the framework of communications that was there as part of the Roman imperial system. It was possible to travel throughout the ancient world fairly quickly... And it was possible for Paul to follow Roman roads and to go to Roman towns and Greek towns and communicate his message in a way that was probably impossible under any other previous imperial system. Karen King : There was a lot of variety in the early Christian movement. There weren't just twelve men, but there were a wide variety of men and women who were responsible for the formation of Christianity. We can chart in some ways some of the issues that were central to the formation of this group. And certainly one of those has to do with circumcision and food laws. These are taken up very directly by the letters of Paul. What's at stake? What's at stake in the question of whether when you become a follower of Jesus the Messiah, the Jewish Christ, you should take up circumcision and food laws or not. As the movement began to accept non-Jewish members, and began to move farther away from the strict religious requirements of Judaism, it grew into a separate and distinct religion.

Solana's 'Theory of Relativity' Jan. 9, 2002 - Hal Lindsey reports that Javier Solana, Europe's foreign policy chief, believes that the shared values of America and Europe are really little more than a political myth. Specifically, he feels, America has "far too much religion." And the American view of religion is just too rigid. He is not opposed to all religion, just the American brand of Christianity and the Zionist Jews. Lindsey concludes that, "Europe is perfectly prepared for the Antichrist to come and take them over."

Republic , in which Rome is ruled by its Senate and its assembly, which were institutions formed at the beginning of the monarchy. The history of the Republic is a history of continuous warfare; all of the historical stories which the Romans will use as stories of Roman virtue and values date from this tumultuous period of defense and invasion. consuls , who were two patricians elected to the office for one year. These patricians exercised imperium in much the same way the kings had in the Roman monarchy. These consuls initiated legislation, served as the head of the judiciary and the military, and served as chief priests to the nation. They even dressed as monarchs, by wearing purple robes and sitting on the seat traditionally reserved for the monarch: the ivory chair. imperium but their power was severely hamstrung by the circumstances of their office. As a result, the consuls did not exercise much initiative or creativity, so Roman government tended to be highly conservative and cautious. This, however, was the intent of the consular system. In 325 BC, however, the consul system was changed to allow for proconsuls , who were consuls whose terms in office were extended because of military campaigns.

Government in Rome Since you've seen what ancient Rome looked like, now you should learn who made the laws you would have followed if you had lived there. What is an Emperor? Emperors were very important figures in ancient Rome. Although they did not exist at the start of the empire, Romans felt that one man was needed to act as the leader of the empire. The emperor did not have unlimited power because there were other important figures in the Roman government. Caesar Augustus was one of the most famous Roman emperors. Julius Caesar was also a ruler of Rome, but he ruled as a dictator, not an emperor. photo courtesy of "An Online Encyclopedia of Roman Emperors" How was the Roman government organized? Since the Romans did not want one man to make all of the laws, they decided to balance the power of the government between three branches: the executive branch, the legislative branch, and the judicial branch. The following table will tell you what each branch of the Roman government did. Executive Branch Legislative Branch Judicial Branch The two leaders of the executive branch, the

By rearranging here the laws of the Theodosian Code Theodosian Code is "more text-conservative" than the Justinianic Code (152), and the dating, probably performed by the commissioners themselves, was 89 percent accurate (150). Yet if there is some editing (even if not very much), and one in ten laws is incorrectly dated (and must be redated on the basis of style [p. x]), the certainties on which the stylistic analysis depends become a little less certain. Ninety percent of eighty-nine percent is eighty-one percent: for some, the chariot may be slowing on the back stretch.

The high, rugged mountains in Greece led to the isolation of its people. What developed as a result, were many small city-states ; meaning a city and all of the land it could control. That means very little cultural diffusion happened. In other words, very few ideas were making their way around the country. In turn, all that isolation led to the adoption of very different social, cultural and political laws and traditions. Athens, for example, tried several forms of government before settling on a limited form of direct democracy . Under this system, only eligible citizens were able to participate in government.
