Let the Vikings In?
by Fay Voshell
Nowhere is the lesson that erosion of foundational belief systems invites collapse from within and without made more apparent than in the present immigration crisis in Europe.
Wars begin and invasions commence when formerly insignificant and disempowered entities feel it is safe to attack a dominant power. The weaknesses noted by rival powers may include internal conflicts, enervated or deluded leadership, the reduction of military forces, and the deterioration of formerly strong alliances, all of which are current weaknesses of Europe and Northern America. All invite attack.
But the most significant invitation to enemies to wage war by all means is the weakening or loss of a national unifying raison d’être; a justification for continued existence as well as a reason to fight. A loss of faith and belief are inevitably coupled with feebleness.
The plain fact of the matter is that Europe does not have a coherent belief system — at least not one strong enough to combat enemies or to resist invasion. The lack of her formerly pronounced and strong Christian worldview is due to the fact Europe embraced the tenets of multiculturalism decades ago. She then made the multicultural world view foundational to her public and foreign policies. Renouncing her expansionist and colonizing past, she repented of her sins of believing some nations are inherently more virtuous and/or advanced than others by embracing the ideas that all nations are equally virtuous; all religions are equally valid; and all personal beliefs may be accommodated within a given and forgiving nation bent on repentant ways.
But Europe’s failure to discern or to foster the strengths of a Christianized Europe and the substitution of the belief in cultural equivalency led to a pronounced shift in European policies toward immigrant (and formerly colonized) peoples. The belief that all cultures are equal, with none inherently superior just because of their Christian foundations, meant in practice that peoples whose worldviews are radically opposed to Judaism and Christianity were invited in without aforethought as to what damage to European mores and institutions would ensue. Even those who adamantly and fearlessly declared their purpose at all times and in all places was to annihilate Jews and Christians in Europe and America were allowed in; not only allowed, but invited.
It is hard to think of the historical equivalent. What nation or empire ever allowed into its boundaries those who threatened death and destruction to its citizens? It’s as though the Vikings or Mongol hordes were given entrance visas to Europe and told, “Come in; come in! Help yourselves.”
And so they came. And so they still are coming.
