The credit crunch will NOT crunch my Manhood my Masculinity or my Warriorhood

The credit crunch will NOT crunch my Manhood my Masculinity or my Warriorhood

10-21-08

Hi Bill,

As for the credit crunch, well it will not affect me, because 1) I can not lose my job, as I am already unemployed and on State (Government) benefit. 2) My reason for donating, if you remember, was that the church I was in and at that time leaving was treating me in an un Christian way and not supporting me but I got the support I needed from the Man2Man Alliance and you. The tithe that I paid to them at that time was 10% of my income and I considered it a sacred trust and not for my use. When I left the Church this money was left with "nothing to do" or I could every 4 weeks send it to you as a "tithe" and as much of a sacred trust. I now think of Patrick as my Pastor, you as my Elder and Robert and Naked Wrestler and the many other contributors to the Alliance web site Warrior Brothers in this my new church as we share a new type of love and belief that involves total Manly love, physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual.

The credit crunch can crunch away, but it will NOT crunch my Manhood my Masculinity or my Warriorhood and it will not stop me sending my donations to the Alliance, because I hunger for the establishment of (through setting up of Regional Chapters by Warrior couples) a Warrior Community and that can only happen if we are committed to the cause of Warriorhood in every way we can be, and this includes sending as much in donations as often as we can.

Wow!

Talk about a true WARRIOR!

Thank you Brian!

In a subsequent letter, Brian, who's in the UK, said,

Dear Bill

Here is this month's donation. Many may ask how do I manage it with the credit crunch etc?

Well, no great secret.

I just put aside a small amount every week then on the 4th week turn it into dollars and send it to you.

The weekly amount is not a lot and is as you know the same amount that I gave to the church anyway, but over the 4 weeks it becomes a good enough sum to send, and you don't miss that small weekly amount, but you would miss it if you tried to get it all at once!

Well, here is some "fuel" for the Alliance "Sherman Tank" to keep on rolling.

Patrick is as always in my prayers.

With Best Wishes and Warrior Love,

Brian

So -- what Brian's describing is easy to do, and enables him to work towards his goal -- the establishment of a Warrior community -- without feeling any economic pain.

That said, there's a lot more to talk about in Brian's post, because what he's doing is an expression of his values, and in particular of communal values, values which many people today lack.

And, as it happens, it's the lack of those values which helped create the credit crunch.

And, for that reason, I started working on a reply to Brian's post when it first came in.

But I'm still working on it, and I realized when Warrior Robert Moseley posted about the Economy in crisis and donations, that Brian's post needed to go up now.

So -- I hope to be able to post my reply to Brian soon.

It's taking a long time because in it I'm looking at Warrior values, how they contrast with the values of our own culture, and what that means for Men -- Men like ourselves -- and all Men, and Women too.

In the meantime, I hope that like Brian, you won't let the credit crunch -- crunch your Manhood your Masculinity or your Warriorhood.

Don't let that happen.

Fight Back.

As I'll make clear in my reply, the values of greed and contempt for the collective good, the forces of dollar-worship and narrow self-interest, are what have brought our society to this crisis.

Like Brian, I call upon you to reject those values and those forces.

And to re-affirm in your own life our Warrior values of Manhood, Masculinity, and Warriorhood.

Fight Back.

Don't let those bozos with their ponzi schemes and "derivatives," their trophy wives and empty lives -- defeat you.

Fight Back.

That's what a Warrior does.

"Never retreat, never surrender" was the Spartan creed.

They meant it and they lived it.

You can too.

Fight Back.

Fight for the establishment of our own Warrior Community, and understand that like Brian says,

that can only happen if we are committed to the cause of Warriorhood in every way we can be, and this includes sending as much in donations as often as we can.

Brian's right.

And if, like Brian, you're "committed to the cause of Warriorhood in every way you can be" -- you'll win.

We'll win.

Again, that's how the Spartans were.

Warriorhood was at the center of their lives.

They were committed to the cause of Warriorhood in every way they could be.

That's why they thrived.

That's why they won.

Against Persia.

And against Athens too.

Those were two empires -- yes, Athens had its own empire -- which were far "wealthier" than Sparta.

But Sparta -- which believed not in empire and not in wealth, but in austerity and equality -- beat them.

Sparta won.

You can win.

We can win.

And in winning we can show Men -- and Women -- a new Way of Living.

The Warrior Way.

Natural and organic, as Frances says.

In which not greed, but the Warrior values of Virtue, Valour, and Manhood -- prevail.

And Rule.

Fight Back.

And never forget that in this crisis and all others,

Brian understands that.

Because Brian is a true Warrior.

You can see it in what he says:

The credit crunch can crunch away, but it will NOT crunch my Manhood my Masculinity or my Warriorhood and it will not stop me sending my donations to the Alliance.

And because he's a true Warrior, because he *fights* for what is right, he'll have what he wants in his life.

I know he will.

Join him.

Fight by his side.

Fight Back.

In another letter and speaking of the new year, Brian said,

Let us see if we can make this the year of the MAN (the Chinese have years of different animals) we should make this OUR year.

When I say M.A.N. I mean M for Masculine A for And N for Normal.

That's right.

This coming year can be the Year of the MAN.

If you'll join with your fellow and true Warriors like Robert Moseley and Brian Hulme to fight for that.

It can be, as Brian says, OUR year.

The Year of the MAN.

Brian says, "When I say M.A.N. I mean M for Masculine A for And N for Normal."

And he's right.

It's a simple statement, but you'd be amazed how few guys are truly able to understand it.

They still believe the central lie of their lifetimes: that to be a Man who Loves Men -- is to be neither Masculine nor normal.

That's not true.

Historically, Men Loving Men has been the norm.

And not just Men Loving Men, but Masculine Men Loving Masculine Men.

That's been the norm.

Not effeminacy, not promiscuity, and certainly not anal.

But Masculine Men phallically and faithfully loving each other.

Phallus and Fidelity.

Strength and Honor.

Those have been the watchwords of Manly Love.

And they will be again.

But not without a fight.

Nothing worth having in this world is gained without a Fight.

Brian understands that.

And his statement is rich with Defiance -- Defiance of all those forces which seek to crunch and crush him and all Men -- including you --

out of existence.

Don't let that happen.

Join with Brian in saying:

The credit crunch will NOT crunch my Manhood my Masculinity or my Warriorhood.

Join with Brian in being:

Committed to the cause of Warriorhood in every way you can be.

When you do that, your life will change for the better -- no matter what shape the economy's in.

Guys -- you cannot let your life be ruled by those fools on Wall Street and High Street -- and Main Street too -- who've made money their god.

Brian won't be ruled by them.

Robert won't be ruled by them.

Don't you be ruled by them either.

FIGHT BACK.

Brian, thank you again.

You're a true WARRIOR.
