Kinism

Kinism, and the principles thereof, are increasingly discussed and espoused among many ministers of the Gospel. Dale Partridge is but one example. We must continue moving the Overton window by openly discussing these matters. @Kinist

The Naturalization Act of 1790 was the first U.S. law to define who could become a citizen. Signed into law by George Washington himself, the act highlights how the Founders perceived a degree of common kinship as integral to the state. @Kinism

Happy 4th of July!

Henry Nowak's final hour was spent listening to alien people conspiring against him in a foreign language while using English to accuse him of racism and deceit. His final minutes were spent with British police dismissing his pleas for help. His final waking moments were spent in handcuffs, on a cold December ground, while all of the above continued around him. @Kinist

Isidore of Seville (560-636) was a Spanish bishop, encyclopaedist, and Doctor of the Church whose Etymologiae became one of the most widely read works in medieval Christendom. He too grounded nationhood in birth and descent itself, defining a “gens” as a people sharing a single ancestral origin. @Kinist

Thomas Aquinas (1225–1274) was a medieval Italian friar, priest, and scholastic thinker. A key principle of his writings is that grace redeems all aspects of nature, from our intellect and desires to our natural kindred relations. @Kinist

Happy St. George’s Day! In the English legend, St. George is an English knight who slays a dragon. That he was not truly English matters no more to the legend’s meaning than the fact that he was not a knight and never slew a dragon. @Kinism

Suella Braverman, former Home Secretary of the United Kingdom, is not herself a kinist, yet she explicitly draws on kinist themes of ancestry and kinship when discussing social categorisation and identity. @Kinism

Happy Easter! Today we celebrate the risen Christ, who conquered sin and death. In His resurrection, creation itself is renewed, and the bonds of kinship are made whole. @Kinism

The English language has many origins — yet no one questions the reality of it. So why question the reality of the English ethnic group / nation for the same reason? @Kinism

Charlie Downes, the Spokesman and Campaigns Director at Restore Britain, a writer for The Daily Mail, and a contributor to GB News, LBC, TalkTV, and Lotus Eaters, stands firm on the point that the kindred peoples of the British isles are unique and have the right to exist. @Kinism

Happy Shrove Tuesday! May the coming Lenten season be a time of renewal, drawing you closer to God and strengthening your faith. @Kinism

Sir Henry Parkes (1815-1896) was an Australian politician and statesman, widely regarded as the “Father of Federation” for his leading role in uniting the Australian colonies. He too stressed the value of kindred feeling within society. @Kinism

In Scripture, nations are understood as kinship relations rather than civic ones. @Kinism

St. Augustine (354-430) was a North African bishop, theologian, and philosopher whose writings profoundly shaped Western Christianity. He likewise recognised a twofold kinship: one of blood and one of religion (i.e. faith). @Kinism

Property theory examines how claims to land are morally and socially justified, recognising that land has no inherent owner at a natural or microscopic level. It asks what gives a people the right to claim, hold, and belong to a land. @Kinism

In a disaster, those nearest spatially are of most help, that’s obvious. To claim this overrides natural affection for kin or applies to all of life, however, is a gross leap in logic and interpretation. @Kinism

John Calvin (1509-1564) was a French theologian, pastor and reformer during the Protestant Reformation. He recognised the twofold nature of kinship and urged continual faithfulness to both man’s natural and spiritual relations. @Kinism

Scripture reveals a twofold kinship: by flesh (natural) and by Spirit (Spiritual). Understanding this distinction is necessary to rightly understand Christian moral and social duty. @Kinism
