Christian Indigenism

Christian Indigenism as a Political Philosophy



What is Christian Indigenism?

Definition of Christian: that which has to do with the legal principles spoken of by Jesus Christ and His agents. These Christian Principles can be found in the Hebrew/Christian Bible.

Definition of Indigenism: that which has to do with Indigenous Rights concerning an indigenous way of life experienced by Indigenous Peoples all around the Planet. A summation of these rights can be found in the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous People.

Firstly it is Christian because the philosophy argues that the New Covenant Principles of Jesus Christ are a perfect foundation for the societies legal system.

Indigenism is basically the belief that Indigenous Peoples have certain inalienable Indigenous Rights and those rights should be used as an economic and political foundation for the society in general.

The Laws of Christ are quite finite. All other laws would then fall back to the Indigenous Governments to decide what is best for their Indigenous Citizens.

In this way democracy would fall within the parameters of Christian and Indigenous Law.

Unlimited Democracy has a tendency to become ultra violent over time. The Christian Indigenism philosophy allows for Democratic Principles to be applied but restrained by Christian and Indigenous Law.

Christian Law becomes the Primary or Universal Law. Indigenous Law becomes the Organic Law to any particular area or people under the guidelines of the UN Articles on Indigenous Rights.

This seems to me to be a very equitable political philosophy and that's why I created it.
