It is the differences that are most important.

I actually agree with both of you, and that is no contradiction. The West is indeed the product of the white race (biology), with, now, the overlay of the Christian, especially Catholic, faith (being Catholic myself, I admit to being biased here; I really do believe, however, that Protestants are deeply wrong, even - especially? - the ones with whom I am in general political agreement; I include here both the strict Calvinists, whose views I consider monstrous, even as I have friends amongst them, and the evangelicals, who are just silly to me). Of course, we need to be careful about overemphasizing not race (as most Chronicles writers and blog commenters strangely might aver), but faith, as The One True Faith is a potential gift for all men, but the pre-Christian ancients, undeniably part of our civilization (just ask this site's editor), are ours alone. Indeed, I argue there would be every bit as much deep psychological compatibility between an ancient Roman, and at least a paleoconservative white man, as between two contemporary Christians of different races.

Both the West and Christianity are larger than each other.

Muslims are infinitely more dangerous immigrants than Mexicans, as my own mother has been saying for years, and for the very reasons above (true, she also says the same thing about all-non-Christian immigrants, including the Chinese - and Jews). The Muslims represent an alien and mostly antagonistic civilization, with a very strong and confident worldview in opposition to our own, both metaphysically as well as temporally (politically and culturally). They have a deep history (and historical memory) of conflict with us. Allowing them to immigrate en masse into Europe over the past half-century was a series of acts of world-historical treason on the part of European "leaders", and someday, there must be Nuremberg-style trials and punishments for them.

Although there is a radical and racist fringe ("Aztlan") to the Mexican 'reconquista' of the American southwest, I do not think that most Mexicans are either as profoundly oppositional, or as ideologically radicalized, as Muslims (though our own treasonous liberal multiculturalists certainly don't help matters!). I've employed, worked with, etc, many of them, and most are just concerned with bettering themselves (though such betterment can be effectuated by welfare for many of them as much as by work). The point, though, is that, taken as a whole, they are racially inferior to whites - less intelligent, less capable, less entrepreneurial, less rectitudinous, and, of course, still racially mostly incompatible. I'm not sure Mexicans constitute a mortal civilizational threat, but they do lower what used to be called in saner times our "national quality".

Coastal Peru. But I don't need to worry about it now, I made it over the hump and can see something like mercy and "the end" from here.

This is true when civilzations are clashing as is Islam in Europe and England but not so desperate when differnt peoples of the same civilazation are clashing as with Mexican immigrants. It will be a disaster at the rate we are attempting to sustain it, but at least the mexicans have the essential cult which our own survival depends upon -- The Holy Sacrifice of The Mass and devotion to The Mother of God. Cheers

Immigration is not multi-faceted in terms of its effects on both Western survival, and current Western quality of life. Certain selfish and treasonous economic interests may favor mass immigration, but who cares? Our job is to defeat them.

And oh yes, race is central to the survival of the West; it is the "door to eternal (Western) life". More precisly, if we don't slam that door shut, our civilization is over - and with its demise goes everything social and political and eventually even cultural that rightists have sought to conserve.
