An Alternate New World Order?
Posted: November 29th, 2010, 12:00 pm
We know that Zion in a sense is the true version of the counterfeit offered by Satan and his organizations. However, it is very tempting to be swept into the concept of a one world government or order. When I first heard about it, my initial reaction was so what? It doesn't take much deductive logic to understand that a world order would alleviate war and poverty, ensure that people are created equal. Assuming that these administrators and enact-ors have nothing but the benefit of society in their hands, there is nothing wrong with a new world order. The problem is that we have seen over the past 100 years that we are not dealing with honest brokers. They promote world peace at the expense of freedom, creating a billionaire caste system, population reduction by hard or soft means, taking away popular sovereignty, and ensconcing corruption all in the name of world peace.
What we need to do is to sell an alternative solution, one that sells world peace based upon righteous principles. A world government is okay if it is based on a few key principles:
1. The principle of popular sovereignty: Rules and regulations need to be made at the most basic level. Economic, health, law enforcement, and morality decisions ought to be made in counties, cities, and neighborhoods whether in rural Utah or sub-Saharan Africa. Communities of like-minded can then Federalize for some basic services like defense, interstate commerce control, property protections, etc. This body can then represent by vote to a world body that has no legislative power over the sovereign, but can only model best practices and respond to atrocities through a vote.
2. The principle of a model society: Societies and governments that work well, promote personal freedom, are economically successful, and have power should refrain from extending that power out of greed or fear. Modeling themselves as an ideal society, setting themselves up as an example, will do more to change the rest of the world than all the military actions. America was a model society for the world before the Spanish-American war when it became imperialist.
3. Avoiding class conflicts: It's about popular sovereignty with the rule of law, not class equalization. Marxism or Morgan-ism should be shunned at every turn.
4. Legislatures and executives are volunteer and term-limited: Limits corruption, buy-offs, attracts the right type of citizen.
5. No standing armies: Whether American troops or UN blue helmets, a military excursion should only be used to keep the peace and not to establish outright or hidden imperialism. They should be a volunteer militia with perhaps a modest stipend. All citizens will be admonished to carry arms for their own defense and for the event of being called to a militia. They should go home and disband as soon as the injustices cease. Nations that will not comply with peaceful relations with their neighbors will be dealt with swiftly and harshly by a vote from the world community of sovereigns which will include the harshest measures to retaliate as a deterrent to future hostilities. Groups that hide within nations--it will be understood that the nation will be responsible for their actions.
6. World government: Any world-based debating group cannot enact laws that overrule the sovereign nations. The purpose of the group is to implement and model these rules to all nations and to promote them through debate and modeling. They can only vote to enact retribution on rogue nations who carry out OVERT acts of aggression on another.
7 Banking and Business: Banks will be local with no reserve. Reserve banking will be outlawed. There will be no central bank--banks will compete with each other. Countries and banks will therefor not be able to extend credit past what they have collateral to put up towards that loan. Businesses will not be allowed to conglomerate or collude. Free market principles will prohibit corporate welfare and monopolistic laws and legal wrangling. Intellectual and other copyright laws will be limited in order to promote more investment and not have businesses sitting on their past laurels.
8 Religion: An absolute freedom of religion will be present. Technocratic and theodemocratic nations will be allowed to thrive and compete as long as they don't infringe upon other nations rights. Believing and promoting moral laws in context with a higher universal power will be modeled. Believing that man has the total rational capability to enact his own morality separate from the higher universal power will be shown to be dangerous.
9 Welfare: Communities will be responsible for the welfare of their own people. Poor in communities can be aided through volunteer economic consecration, a local sales tax, or other method. Emphasis will be placed on helping the poor escape poverty themselves, and not a constant handout. City codes and other ordinances will be placed not on ostracizing poor communities, but in a distribution of these communities throughout the cities, with stewardship over them. Reductions in poverty will be easier to attain without the false scarcity implemented by banking and business monopolies.
10 Self-sufficiency: Communities and individuals will be responsible for their own energy produced at local levels, or even energy-production that is based in families (solar wind etc.) with augmentations that are managed locally. Individuals and communities should grow and raise their own crops and commodity resources (greenhouse and other technologies). Communities should not grow faster than they can sustain themselves. They maintain their own population issues. Trade is appropriate for commodities (like bananas) not available in some communities. Transportation networks can be maintained by the federalization of communities.
What do you all think? Should I modify some of it? What else would you ad?

Reminds me of the time I was in high school, and the teacher was talking about celestial and terrestrial bodies in a philosophy class... I raised my hand and asked, "What about telestial bodies?" The teacher said, "I have NO IDEA what you are talking about." I said, "TELESTIAL!" He says, "I have never heard that word before." LOL, it had never occurred to me that telestial was a Mormon word. Hence, as I write this, my web browser is putting a red squiggly under every "telestial" in this comment.
