Devout Christians, whose highest lord is the king of kings, make for terrible slaves. They are not, as politicians wish, easily maneuverable […] We, being multiple generations into democracy, have been domesticated beasts for so long we have become complacent […] not knowing what liberty is—or worse, afraid of it.

During the Middle Ages, law was derived from God and the people’s traditions and could not be manipulated or abused. So, the medieval peasant did not have to campaign […] because those in power had no right to violate the law; […] it was ingrained in the politics of the day that any man, lord, or king who overstepped his God-given authority was to be resisted by force or at least ignored by the entire society. To cooperate with a tyrant […] would be itself treason against the law, and God.

Justice, law, liberty, etc. were derived from the eternal God and natural law and thus did not change based on who currently holds power. Defending law, liberty, and your rights was not an act of pride but a defense of God […] their obligation was to maintain a Christian realm. To allow tyrants […] to introduce paganism, atheism, or tyranny was sure to bring the wrath of God on His people […]

In modern times, we have entirely changed our definitions of traitor and rebel based on blind obedience. […] In the Middle Ages, any ruler who went outside of law and tradition was a rebel and traitor and was to be resisted by law. Thus, a medieval peasant would say the greatest outlaws in America were not those of the Old West but are its elected officials and judges of today.

[…]

If you’re the government, how do you control them? […] the Middle Ages must now be vilified, demonized, and misrepresented so none would ever think of replicating the period. If we were to imitate them today—all at once—we would overthrow the current power structures. […] It was a devout Christian population during that period that maintained a Christian and libertarian society.
