How to fight the existing Church. Function of contemporary press. Organization
of police. Volunteer police. Espionage on the pattern of the kabal espionage.
Abuses of authority.
The practice of advocacy produces men cold, cruel, persistent,
unprincipled, who in all cases take up an impersonal purely legal standpoint.
They have the inveterate habit to refer everything to its value for the defence,
not to the public welfare of its results. They do not usually decline to
undertake any defence whatever, they strive for an acquittal at all costs,
cavilling over every petty crux of jurisprudence and thereby they demoralize
justice. For this reason we shall set this profession into narrow frames which
will keep it inside this sphere of executive public service. Advocates, equally
with judges, will be deprived of the right of communication with litigants; they
will receive business only from the court and will study it by notes off report
and documents, defending their clients after they have been interrogated in
court on facts that have appeared. They will receive an honorarium without
regard to the quality of the defence. This will render them mere reporters on
law-business in the interests of justice and as counterpoise to the proctor who
will be the reporter in the interests of prosecution; this will shorten business
before the courts. In this way will be established a practice of honest
unprejudiced defence conducted not from personal interest but by conviction.
This will also, by the way, remove the present practice of corrupt bargain
between advocates to agree only to let that side win which pays most. . .
We have long past taken care to discredit the priesthood of the
goyim, and thereby to ruin their mission on earth which in these days might
still be a great hindrance to us. Day by day its influence on the peoples of the
world is falling lower. Freedom of conscience has been declared everywhere, so
that now only years divide us from the moment of the complete wrecking of that
Christian religion, as to other religions we shall have still less difficulty in
dealing with them, but it would be premature to speak of this now. We shall set
clericalism and clericals into such narrow frames as to make their influence
move in retrogressive proportion to its former progress.
When the time comes finally to destroy the papal court the
finger of an invisible hand will point the nations towards this court. When,
however, the nations fling themselves upon it, we shall come forward in the
guise of its defenders as if to save excessive bloodshed. By this diversion we
shall penetrate to its very bowels and be sure we shall never come out again
until we have gnawed through the entire strength of this place.
The King of the Jews will be the real Pope of the Universe, the
patriarch of an international Church.
But, in the meantime, while we are re-educating youth in new
traditional religions and afterwards in ours, we shall not overtly lay a finger
on existing churches but we shall fight against them by criticism calculated to
produce schism.
In general, then, our contemporary press will continue to
convict State affairs, religions, incapacities of the goyim, always using the
most unprincipled expressions in order by every means to lower their prestige in
the manner which can only be practiced by the genius of our gifted tribe.
Our kingdom will be an apologia of the divinity Vishnu, in whom
is found its personification -in our hundred hands will be, one in each, the
springs of the machinery of social life. We shall see everything without the aid
of official police which, in that scope of its rights which we elaborated for
the use of the goyim, hinders governments from seeing. In our programme onethird
of our subjects will keep the rest under observation from a sense of duty, on
the principle of volunteer service to the State. It will then be no disgrace to
be a spy and informer, but a merit: unfounded denunciations, however, will be
cruelly punished that there may be no development of abuses of this right.
Our agents will be taken from the higher as well as the lower
ranks of society, from among the administrative class who spend their time in
amusements, editors, printers and publishers, booksellers, clerks, and salesmen,
workmen, coachmen, lackeys, et cetera. This body, having no rights and not being
empowered to take any action on their own account, and consequently a police
without any power, will only witness and report: verification of their reports
and arrests will depend upon a responsible group of controllers of police
affairs, while the actual act of arrest will be performed by the gendarmerie and
the municipal police. Any person not denouncing anything seen or heard
concerning questions of polity will also be charged with and made responsible
for concealment, if it be proved that he is guilty of this crime.
Just as nowadays our brethren are obliged at their own risk to
denounce to the kabal apostates of their own family or members who have been
noticed doing anything in opposition to the kabal, so in our kingdom over all
the world it will be obligatory for all our subjects to observe the duty of
service to the State in this direction.
Such an organization will extirpate abuses of authority, of
force, of bribery, everything in fact which we by our counsel, by our theories
of the superhuman rights of man, have introduced into the customs of the goyim.
. . But how else were we to procure that increase of causes predisposing to
disorders in the midst of their administration? . . . Among the number of those
methods one of the most important is -agents for the restoration of order, so
placed as to have the opportunity in their disintegrating activity of developing
and displaying their evil inclinations -obstinate self-conceit, irresponsible
exercise of authority, and, first and foremost, venality.
