by David Rosser Owen “The West” that separates Church and State is basically France and French-style secularism. The USA doesn’t really separate church and state as such, but instead, decided against having an established church so as not to weaken the resolve of the 13 Colonies, in their wish to leave being British, and gain independence. Why? So that the Established Anglican states (e.g. New York, Maryland, Virginia) would not end up fighting Puritan fundamentalists (e.g. Massachusetts, Connecticut) when they should be watching their collective backs. in other words, Americans did not establish a religion because (a) it would have divided the states, and (b) they perceived the state religion of britain as ‘diluted’, which we would today translate as “insufficiently cleansed of catholicism and Popery.” The UK’s secularism (separating Church and State) means here that there are no Churchmen holding senior offices of the secular state as churchmen – the last bishop as Lord Chancellor was in the 1600s. But it doesn’t mean that the Common Law doesn’t derive from Natural Law (i.e. Divinely inspired Law, as the books by people like Hooker, Feilding, or Hearnshaw state).

Negative and Positive Manners, Ethics, Morals and Laws.
Negative manners, ethics, morals, and law are universal. Positive manners, ethics and morals are agency and therefore class dependent. We had it right until christianity imposed a universalist slave monopoly. Just as the Ashkenazi have tried through marxism, libertarianism, and neo-conservatism to impose a universalist monopoly of the working, trading, and ruling classes.

No Political Parties, or Politicians
There is no value in a political party under rule of law since there are no political parties. There are no political parties because there are no politicians. There are no politicians because there is nothing for politicians to do. Either return to monarchical decision making. Or direct equi-distributive economic voting. Or direct proportional economic voting. All of which are bound by the limits of the natural law of reciprocity. Ergo, king is bound by contract, and voters cannot but vote for contracts. And only judges discover and make laws. There is no need for politicians when the only purpose of politicians was to solve the problem of distance from one another. This problem no longer exists. Quite contrary to every presumption I had going in, the constitutional monarchies were far better at governing than democracies. I don’t care which model, but representative democracy is the worse possible model.

Marriage Is Just a Limited Liability Organization
End community property, alimony, child support, welfare, and end all taxation until one’s retirement is fully funded. At that point marriage is just a limited liability organization. Education loses value after grade six, so mix apprenticeship(work) with two hours of classes, which include accounting, statistics, basic economics and or the sciences and mathematics on the other. and logic and rhetoric.

Only the british old parliamentary system (houses were large juries accepting or rejecting proposals put forth by the monarchy/administration ) produced a market for commons between the classes. Had additional lower houses been added classical liberalism wouldnt have been needed.
