  Trump Tribalism and the God Module

  Trump Tribalism and the God Module explores the role God Modules play in driving liberal, rebel forces to ferment chaos in large, established, conservative cultures where community solidarity is lost. 
    
  The God Module is a cluster of nerves in the human brain that addicts humans to tribal ideologies while blinding them to contrary ideologies. 
    
  In the 1970s, the “Father of the New Left,” Marxist professor Herbert Marcuse, influenced students like Soul Alinsky, Mrs. Clinton and Mr. Obama to destroy capitalism by dividing the country via identity politics—Classic Internecine Tribalism. In a few decades that pathologic Marxist philosophy turned into Postmodernism that was driven by the Gang of 5: The media, social sciences, “Income Elite,” Democrat Party, and public education institutions. 
  Listeners should take away an appreciation for how the God Module does not differentiate between how religious and secular tribes function; how successful classic tribalism, (nationalism) has been for the human species; and how destructive internecine tribalism has been to many large, established, historic tribes like Rome, as well as large, established, democratic tribes like America.

  Rights of Man, a book by Thomas Paine, posits that popular political revolution is permissible when a government does not safeguard the natural rights of its people. Using these points as a base it defends the French Revolution against Edmund Burke's attack in Reflections on the Revolution in France. Paine argues that the interests of the monarch and his people are united, and insists that the French Revolution should be understood as one which attacks the despotic principles of the French monarchy, not the king himself, and he takes the Bastille, the main prison in Paris, to symbolize the despotism that had been overthrown.

  The vast right wing conspiracy has found its General Patton, and his name is David Kahane. Kahane's pseudonymous, satiric column for National Review Online, lampooning the Left via his Hollywood-radical persona-Stephen Colbert's liberal doppelganger-is must-listening for political aficionados of all stripes. Now, from the inside, Kahane proudly exposes the secret and not-so-secret winning strategies (and vulnerabilities) of the Left and gives desperate conservatives a roadmap to victory, in a take-no-prisoners manual modeled after Alinsky's Rules for Radicals, C. S. Lewis's The Screwtape Letters, Machiavelli's Prince, and, of course, the Chicago Way.

  We love God. We love our country. What does it look like to love each properly and well?National tensions are at a record high. People on all points in the political spectrum care deeply about their country, although they differ wildly in their opinions about what it looks like to serve that country well. As Christians, we love God and seek to follow him. At the same time, nothing shapes us and tugs at our loyalties quite like the place we live. And of course we are regularly encouraged to pledge our allegiance to our country―or particular understandings of it. Who wins when the priorities of God and our country clash?In Kingdom and Country, a collection of leading Christian thinkers and practitioners take a holistic approach to considering the questions of patriotism, nationalism, and where our ultimate loyalties must like. Contributors include Alejandro Mandes, Juliet Liu, Ryan Tafilowski, Derek Vreeland, Rod Wilson, Michelle Reyes, Amanda Smith, Karen Wilk, Sean Palmer, and Tina BoeschKingdom and Country is the second in a series of Kingdom Conversations, books that bring together trusted Christian voices to address some of the most urgent and perplexing challenges of our time in timeless and redemptive ways.

  Mill's On Liberty

  John Stuart Mill

  Mill's thinking about freedom in civic and social life examines fundamental principles shared among conservative, liberal, and radical politicians. The life of true philosophy stands outside the political battles that are rampant in society and seeks the political wisdom that is necessary for a good life in any age. Mill's philosophical presentation and analysis of those principles stand alongside the reflections of Plato, Aristotle, Marcus Aurelius, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau.When the officials of any government seek to change the laws that regulate individual liberty or when rhetoricians seek to change public opinion about what individuals should or should not be allowed to say or do, Mill's On Liberty serves as an effective antidote to the poisons of excessive intrusion into the lives of individuals. The present edition is specifically designed to employ the dual nature of rhetoric - oral and written language - and to utilize electronic technology to open Mill's text to contemporary listeners.© Agora Publications

  'We need effective citizen-lobbyists – not just likers, followers or even marchers – more than ever. I have no hesitation in lobbying you to read this book.'
  
  Bill Emmott, former editor in chief, the Economist
  
  
  Many democratic societies are experiencing a crisis of faith. Citizens are making clear their frustration with their supposedly representative governments, which instead seem driven by the interests of big business, powerful individuals and wealthy lobby groups.
  What can we do about it? How do we fix democracy and get our voices heard?
  
  
  The answer, argues Alberto Alemanno, is to become change-makers – citizen lobbyists. By using our skills and talents and mobilizing others, we can bring about social and political change. Whoever you are, you've got power, and this book will show you how to unleash it.
  
  From successfully challenging Facebook's use of private data to abolishing EU mobile phone roaming charges, Alberto highlights the stories of those who have lobbied for change, and shows how you can follow in their footsteps, whether you want to influence immigration policy, put pressure on big business or protect your local community.
