"Lawless Judges"

George Neumayr, perhaps the second-most important writer in America, explains how the wheel of judicial tyranny turns eventually to the rejection of law by the people:

Lawless judges operate according to a very cynical assumption: that the people they abuse will never behave as recklessly and ruthlessly as they do. But this is not a durable assumption. Treating the people as docile chumps will work in the short term, but one of the more reliable patterns of history is that anarchy follows tyranny. Tyrants live by lawlessness and die by it. There is no reason to suppose that the convulsions that every other corrupted Republic has choked on through history won't eventually seize the throat of our tyrants.

Americans are supposed to be horrified that mullahs in the Middle East are micromanaging the lives of people and standing in the way of their self-government. Yet that's exactly what's happening to Americans under the modernist mullahs of its judicial class. Both the Supreme Court and state courts routinely lecture the people like overweening mullahs, saying in effect: we will not let you govern yourselves; you must submit your way of life to our approval; we don't trust your "values."

American judges have a contempt for God-given freedoms that would make an Arab autocrat proud. Because these judicial tyrants know that letting the people exercise God-given freedoms will not produce the liberal society they have long wanted to engineer, they will squash that freedom by judicial decree. The Monday ruling of San Francisco County Superior Court Judge Richard Kramer throwing out Californians' opposition to same-sex marriage illustrates this once again.

Having no respect for the laws of God, modern liberalism is by nature lawless, and the judicial tyranny under which we now live is its natural outgrowth. Since liberalism rests on nothing that precedes human will, what else can the rule of law for it be but the rule of corrupt men? The idea that man would form laws on the basis of an order from which he came -- namely, the order that God established and promulgates to man through his reason -- is an outrage to liberalism. This idea of law is "authoritarian." However, experience should have taught us by now that modern liberalism produces not an absence of authority but an explosion of new and abusive authority, a pitiless authority that tends toward totalitarianism.
