Man first attempted to rule his neighbor, and in the process to usurp the sovereignty of God, in the Garden of Eden. God admonished Adam and Eve not to eat the fruit of the "tree of the knowledge of good and evil." The satanic serpent challenged Eve to eat the fruit by telling her that "in the day you eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil." Since then, the idea of "being as gods" and ruling over creation has been an aspect of our fallen nature. Civilization based on morality and the rule of law has always strained to stem the tide of corrupted individuals and movements. Although man cannot change this aspect of his nature, good people can and do oppose and thwart the conspiracy when it arises.

Ninteenth-century European colonialism was an example of a world conquering movement. British race patriots, for example, believed in the moral superiority of the Anglo-Saxon race. They believed they had some sort of mystical mandate to rule the world and mould nations in their image. This led to enormous atrocities committed in the belief that the peoples of the world needed to be civilized. The British would be the world's first drug pushers as they forced China to open up to the Opium trade. Their philosophy was best described in the writings of Thomas Carlyle, John Ruskin, and Rudyard Kipling, and expressed in the actions of Cecil Rhodes.

The most destructive world conquering movements in history have been Nazism and Communism. Nazism, a mix of occultic beliefs and "scientific" Socialism, believed in a "New World Order" controlled by a super race of Aryans. They claimed that the Aryans would usher in an age of "peace and progress" and, as such, they felt a moral imperative to liquidate people deemed to be racially impure.

Likewise with Communism, which, according to the Black Book of Communism, was responsible for the murder of over 100 million people in the twentieth century. The Communist "progressive" world, which promised its followers an end to poverty and suffering, would justify the liquidation of those who stood in the way of this "progress" or those deemed to be not politically correct.

Radical Islam constitutes the "New World Order" movement of today. The radical fundamentalist Muslim is convinced that he is fulfilling the command of God by killing as many "infidels" and "people of the book" as is necessary to usher in the "Dar el-Islam." He envisions a world of boundless joy and wonder for those who follow the true faith in a "Dar es Salaam," or world of peace under Islam. He considers his vision to be tolerant and benevolent toward non-Muslims as long as they live in "dhimmis." This means that, in exchange for not converting, they will be allowed to live as second-class citizens and to pay a Zakat tax so that the beneficent Muslims will let them live another year.

Those who recognize the rule of God, not man, and who seek a personal relationship with the Creator, not a relationship controlled by an earthly interpreter, have the means of opposing, and crushing if necessary, those forces which seek to destroy their natural sovereighty and peace. Genuine progress is expressed in nation-states operating under systems of proscribed law which protect the freedom of the individual to live and fulfill his destiny unmolested by his neighbor. Such nation-states have a moral imperative to protect that sovereignty from rhe forces that seek to usurp it.
