In the religion of liberalism, to reject citizenship is a heresy which results in being boycotted in every aspect of public life.

To actively support military defense for an identity group other than national identity groups, however, is apostasy.

This apostasy results in nothing less than the total destruction of the life of the person who commits it. Depending on the extent of this support, some may be given the chance to repent.

The Western concept of citizenship originates from Greek mythology, and specifically the Greek concept of autochthony, which literally means springing from the earth.

Some Greeks saw themselves as descended from kings who spontaneously appeared from the earth.

This concept was used to reinforce the distinction between themselves and foreigners, and emphasized an eternal, spiritual connection to a particular piece of land.

Citizenship almost always required that both the mother and father be the children of citizens.

This mythology was used as a fundamental justification for democracy. Since all citizens originated from the earth in the region of the city, none could claim superiority over others, although they regarded themselves as superior to all non-citizens.

This belief system survives today in the legal principle of jus sanguinis, the Roman legal principle that citizenship is inherited by a blood relationship to a parent. This system is in place in most of the nations of Eurasia and Africa.

Practically speaking, this is the legal basis for nationalism, and thus the entire world order, today.

A refusal to submit to and live according to this system is also a rejection of the beliefs (aqa’id) upon which it is based, and thus apostasy.

This is in contrast to Islam, which affirms that earth is the origin of all human beings, and that the entire earth belongs to Allah, and that we are all equally slaves of Allah.

The Greeks also usually ascribed divine parenthood to their ancestors.

Theseus, one of the founding kings of Athens, for example, is often referred to as the son of Poseidon, god of the sea.

This further lays the foundation for exalting some lines of descent above others, and granting them superior rights or privileges based on their parentage.

The Eastern Mediterranean, where Christianity first appeared, was deeply influenced by Greek thought, and Christianity never really took hold until it made the shift to portraying Jesus, alaihi asalam, as a god.

This was surely more acceptable to Greek sensibilities.

It’s interesting that they deified a human prophet from Bani Israel, and that the culture that then grew up around this belief system has ended up with Bani Israel in an elite position of dominance over the entire system.

If a people do not submit to the truth, they will inevitably try to force the truth to conform to their falsehood. False beliefs are often derived in order to serve the interests of the ones inventing them, eventually leading to a war against the truth.

In the case of autochthony, the concept was invented to try to cement the claim of the Athenian elite over their land, prevent an autocrat from taking their influence, and prevent foreigners from encroaching on their political power.

In Hinduism, reincarnation was adopted in order to solidify the dominance of brahmins.

In late Western Christianity, the concept of an ethnically European god helped justify colonialism, which is the basis of the modern world system.

So it must be understood that whoever facilitates the legal normalization of citizenship and nationality is serving as a proselytizing agent for polytheistic ideologies, and supporting the maintenance of the position of the ruling elite, whether knowingly or unknowingly.
