Michael Voris is also an American Monarchist!

Good stuff- but I reply thusly:

The only monarch that the U.S. every could have known was George Washington, but this is a popular urban legend as far as I can tell. Due to the writings of our indigenous Catholic scholar, Orestes Brownson, Americans must perfect, via the Catholic Faith, etc. the Republican system of government that God gave to America (in an imperfect form via the deists, masons, etcs.) when the American commonwealth was established. God didn't will America to be a Catholic Monarchy but- after long and diverse and bloody struggles- a Catholic Republic. :D

A popular saying amongst Christians of all kinds in America, Catholics, non-Catholics, is something like "Only God is King of America." Our Sovereign King is none other than God Himself. No earthly monarch will suffice. If his Britannic Majesty, George III wasn't good enough, what good will another earthly king do for America? :) We're sick of petty kings in the U.S.A.; we call them Presidents and Congressmen nowadays.

However I don't fault the noble ideas of my Catholic friends who are monarchists! I get you "loud and clear." The restoration of Traditional Culture is imperative and all Catholics must be strongly united around this common cause.

I'm a monarchist but no monarch on earth will satisfy me since Christ Himself is my only Monarch. :)

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.. The greatest king in the Earth is but a pretender or the holy servant to the King of the kings and the Lord of the lords. What is Julius Caesar? Dust. Augustus? Dust. Trajan? Dust. Charles the Great? Dust. Alfred the Great? Dust. George Washington? Dust. Etc. :)

I agree with Mr. Voris. A Catholic Dictatorship would be the best political system, the only one that guarantees and promotes the virtue of the individuals (remember that the classical objective of politics, since Aristotle, has been promote the virtue of the citizens). Definitely, it is better than liberal democracy.
