“Go ahead - call them - destroy us all, and everything we’ve ever cared about! Call them, and endure the fires of hell throughout the eternal ages! Call them, and explain why to Jesus on judgment day, before God the Father, the angels, all the heroes of Hebrews 11, and the assembled universe! Explain why you destroyed us all! Explain why you destroyed our church! Explain why you threw in your lot with God’s enemies! Tell Jesus why you threw in your lot with the men who crucified Him! But go ahead - call them - I’ll let you! Throw in your lot with Judas Iscariot! Go ahead and betray me, and everyone who’s ever cared about you! But you go right ahead and call CPS!” As Bob thrust the phone at him and Shane was screaming “No! No! I’ll burn in hell if I do!” Chapter 32 Sic Semper Tyrannis is a memoir about a time, not so long past, when men were free, religious values were taken seriously. and parents were allowed to pass on the cultural heritage to their children without governmental interference. As David Selznick remarked concerning the Antebellum South, "Look for it only in books, for it is no more than a dream remembered, a Civilization gone with the wind . . . " This fictional account is the story of what might have been, had Christian parents possessed the courage of their convictions. It depicts the use of spanking and other types of physical correction, from the perspective of an adolescent boy. Volume 4 continues the saga of twelve year old Billy Martin, who has been suddenly uprooted from the only home he knows, in liberal Stockholm, and sent to live with his eighteen year old brother, Bob, who has recently joined an ultra-conservative religious group in Idaho .Billy, a high-spirited youth, has been allowed to run at loose ends for his entire life, and has never experienced discipline of any kind. He now finds himself in a vastly different world. Bob immediately sets about bringing his kid brother into line, and giving him the “Biblical discipline” that he, and the other sect members, consider essential to proper child rearing. Billy strives to come to grips with the new reality. In volume 4, Bob has gone out of town for two days, and left Billy in the charge of 17 year old Frankie, who has been looking forward to disciplining Bob’s impetuous sibling. When he attempts to do so, Frankie is thrown completely off guard by Billy’s unexpected reaction. While the characters depicted are wholly imaginary, the issues they confront are real, and threaten to undermine the foundations of Western civilization. This work does not contain any erotic material, but is a sobering assessment of today’s child rearing practices in the United States and Western Europe. It should be required reading for every adolescent boy, and all those who attempt to influence him.
