Africa isn't representative of Europe or American history at all. The
external proletariat to Europe and the U.S.A. is preponderantly
non-white though. Modern liberalism yields turf to foreign tribes and
racial groups in the name of theory and political correctness
expecting quietism of the losers. Cruel excesses of history make
liberalism challenging to resist ideologically though it can lead to
Stalinist-Kymer Rouge sorts of things too. It is often overlooked
that it wasn't only conservative politicians that were cruel,
sadistic etc...humanity was itself commonly loutish and still has
original sin.
Archaeologists and anthropologists examined a village several thousand years old someplace near Jericho I believe and found that though it wasn't a battle site death by head injury was the major cause of male mortality. When the law isn't around and people don't have cell phones they crush one another's skulls for law enforcement to suit themselves it seems. So one thinks about Rwanda and Syria etc. Saudi Arabia executed 27 for New Year on some sort of economy budget clearance apparently. http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2016/01/02/saudi-arabia-executions/78199624/
The founders are something like the Maytag repairman that fixed everything so well they had no business remaining. A futurism where democratic principles required the self-destruction of European or Euro-American culture probable wasn't envisioned. Fortunately one doesn't live for centuries so even if society evolves under the powers of agitating disrupters of the status quo into some sort of authoritarian non-white majoritarianism that will be a problem for future generations-and they might like it. At one point I had thought of becoming an educator in Africa or Eastern Europe and finding a local bride-never got around to it though. I think the modern battle between imperialism and democracy is moving toward imperials and oligarchy now. Straight white males are a minority even in the U.S.A. and their political prospects aren't especially good compared to the past. Some take the values of the founders for granted as if it was a Platonic realist form that can be materialized anyplace.
The balance of the world hasn't shared the historical experience that evolved the reformation and modern democracy. The founders were entirely Euro-Americans heavily influenced by the Reformation of Luther, Zwingli et al. Jabbar (as in Kareem) means Orion the Great Warrior, Muhammad Ali didn't choose Jesus Ali for a name. The world majority would like any minority to hush up and toe the line-simple logic and history. After a more than 500 years of occupation by Muslims the Spanish named their kids Jesus and sent Columbus west. Racial and tribal conflict was the way of human history since the beginning, yet now with the maturity of Democratic liberalism of the founders the leftist hyperbole of the ethic special interests has worked to silence people within a corporatist body. Politically correct globalism is a progressing wall of repression of civil rights in favor of newly empowered class rights. Affirmative action redistributed power and wealth to the rich and down graded white middle class men-these are not new trends. At least the Turks aren't sending plague ships or hurling plague infested rats over the walls presently although Erdogan admires Hitler's economic policies. I wonder if any majority is ever saved, and not just individuals that surf through the waves of history while God provides grace for society to keep slipping the noose of doom from their own nature.
Wisdom comprises learning rather than rashness. In political affairs and issues involving vast sociological and historical forces that are to a large extent secular rather than spiritual issues it is important for those with competence in various fields to apply it to public affairs rather than relying soley on corrupt authorities risen ton their level of incompetence. Alternatively Christian ministries in the media often are rather rash about political participation and advice wherein they may be offering wrong advice. Of course too many Christians seek to emulate the worldly lead that is something of a corporatist-leftist drift toward godless evolutionist romanticism with raving for all and hierarchical rule by a Plutonomy before its purged by the planetary majority of liberated non-western souls. Like chess the simple move may not always be the best. Spiritual concerns are different obviously. God as pure spirit may regard human affairs and wisdom in a different light than ordinary people of course, yet like expert farmers or physicians those knowledgeable in particular or general human affairs might like to limit their theory to that, and let God use people as tools through the power of the Holy Spirit. The default regarding silence today is eggression towards authoritarian and even Orwellian organizational powers. Martin Luther was not the most silent soul.
