Sovereign Nations
Welcome to The Causes of Things, a podcast from Sovereign Nations. The 1st century BC poet Virgil stated, “Blessed is he who understands the hidden causes of things.” This statement is as brilliant today as it was 2,000 years ago.
Primarily narrated by Michael O'Fallon, The Causes of Things is didactic in nature featuring a collection of teaching series & lectures, some of which are recorded specifically for this podcast, and some that are from public lectures. The show will offer discussion and information concerning a variety of complex ideas: The philosophical presuppositions behind the ideas that are aggressively shaping our world, the answers to those challenging ideas, and the necessary historical, hierarchical structure of the world as represented through the lens of Judeo Christian belief.

Decolonization | Public Occurrences, Ep. 87
The critical social justice advocates in the United States have been hard at work over the past 20 years pushing the class struggle and race struggle conflict theory of Postcolonial Theory in nearly every facet of western education.
Postcolonial theory advocates claim that African Americans, Asians and Latinos (of which I am – once again – of Cuban descent) belong categorically to “disparate people groups” and need to be liberated, or, “decolonized.”
And of course they refer back to the examples of imperial European powers colonized Africa, Asia and South America as their examples.
But that isn’t what social justice advocates mean by “decolonization.”
In the Social Justice sense, the term decolonization refers to postmodern Foucauldian and Derridean concepts of power (https://newdiscourses.com/tftw-power-systemic/) and knowledge (https://newdiscourses.com/tftw-knowledges/), So in this twisted definition, decolonization seeks to read everything through a framework of colonialism and uncover how it has shaped all sorts of power dynamics in society: even the Christian Faith.

The Southern Baptist Cultural Revolution | Public Occurrences, Ep. 86
Members of Southern Baptist Churches must cast off their ever-present cognitive dissonance and come to a full understanding of what is happening to the Christian faith. Failing to recognize what this movement is and what the goals of the SBC Cultural Revolution are will result in the ideological and theological loss of the largest Protestant convention of churches in the United States.

An Important Debate | Public Occurrences, Ep. 85
It has been a few years since I have participated in moderated formal debate. The reflexive pandemic postponed many of our needed exchanges and discussions that were quite necessary for us to be able to continue the process of pursuing objective truth.
This evening I will be moderating a debate with the Republican Candidates for the District 13 seat in the House of Representatives. My hope is that we will have an informative debate with intelligent and polite discourse.
What we need in District 13 is not another flip-flopping Republicrat like Charlie Crist. We need a man or a woman who will uphold and defend the constitution of the United States of America.

Deconstructing Disney: Part 1 | Public Occurrences, Ep. 84
The tiara is tainted, the pixie dust has turned to dirt and the polish of the previously esteemed brand of Disney is coming to an inglorious end.
Before we examine the disrupting and dismantling of the Disney Corporation, we examine the courageous and imaginative genesis of all things Disney: Walter Elias Disney.
Disney has been a cultural pillar of our nation for nearly 80 years. To watch this treasured jewel of American cultural influence degrade into a rough, woke beast is tragic for so many of us who have benefited and enjoyed the fruit of the Disney brand.
The question must be asked:
Is Disney worth saving?
Or
Should we cast Disney into the eternal trash heap forever?

A Great Reset of Energy: Part 2 | Public Occurrences, Ep. 83
On today’s episode of Public Occurrences Both Foreign and Domestic, we will pick up where we left off in our discussion regarding the disrupting and dismantling of our current energy based economy in the United States.
To be able to both discern the times and prepare yourself for “what's next” coming down the road from the combined plans and schemes of the Biden Administration and World Economic Forum partners, it is necessary to think consequentially. Thinking consequentially is placing your thinking patterns in terms of falling dominos or consequential actions that will result from the administration (or the market) responding to whatever presents itself as today’s crisis du jour.
By thinking consequentially you will be able to know the end before the beginning and will be able to respond to shocks to our systems such as:
-The astronomical rise in the price of gas
-Dollar destruction
-Disruptions in travel
-The dismantling of the automotive industry
-The strategic ending of volitional travel and transportation
By knowing where our new revolutionary leaders want to take us, we will be able to respond and resist their plans to deconstruct our nation and our way of life.

Ascol and Baucham: Leadership in the SBC | Public Occurrences, Ep. 82
The Southern Baptist Convention is in the process of seeking new leadership this June in Anaheim, CA.
The current President of the SBC, Pastor Ed Litton, has decided to resign after a tumultuous year-long tenure in office. During this time, Pastor Ed Litton was shown to have been preaching messages from sermon scripting organization, Docent, who as well was providing the exact same left-leaning sermons to former SBC President J.D. Greear.
For the past 5 years those of us that have stood against the spread of critical race theory and intersectionality have been maligned by the elite leadership of the SBC. Over those 5 years congregations who did not embrace the call to CRT(Race Marxism) were called racists, misogynists, and idolaters if they did not fully embrace the Neo-Marxist and politically leftward drift of the SBC.
Stepping into the arena is a man who many at Sovereign Nations know well: Pastor Thomas Ascol from Grace Baptist Church in Cape Coral, FL. Pastor Ascol has shown resolve to stand against the infusion of critical social justice and intersectionality as these cancerous ideologies have been woven into the fabric of the church.
Standing with Dr. Ascol is another man well known for his stand against the Social Justice Grievance Gospel: Dr. Voddie Baucham.
Dr. Ascol and Dr. Baucham will not just have the might of the SBC Deep State against their bid to reform the SBC: they will also be up against the synchronized machine of those that are seeking to “reset” our world, our nation, and faith communities around the world.

Beware the Ides of March | Public Occurrences, Ep. 81
The great English poet and writer, William Shakespeare, dramatized the assassination of Julius Caesar in his dramatic tragedy, “Julius Caesar.”
Early in the play, a soothsayer warns Caesar to “Beware the ides of March” as Caesar was leaving to participate in festivities of the day.
As Emperor of Rome and spiritual head of the Empire, Julius Caesar would have naturally been expected to participate in the public festivities during this important day, despite the seer’s prophecy to, “Beware the Ides of March.”
When Caesar arrived at the Theater of Pompey, where the Roman Senate met, he was stabbed to death by a group of more than 60 conspirators led by the senators - his friends - Brutus and Cassius, former friends turned enemies in their own thirst for power.
Shakespeare has the dying dictator say, in Latin, as he recognizes his one-time friend Brutus among the assassins: Et tu, Brute? (“You, too, Brutus?”)
That the conspirators - Caesars closest political allies - chose the Ides of March to enact their plot was no coincidence.
And it shouldn’t be any surprise that many of the psychopathic conspiracies to make major regime changes have happened on or right around the Ides of March.
But the Ides of March has been used frequently as that “world changing Date”
So, what other world changing - history changing moment happened on the Ides of March?
Think…
It was on the Ides of March, March 15, 1917 that Tsar Nicholas II of Russia abdicated the Russian throne and the age of Marxist Leninist Communism began: the first communist nation in the world, the Soviet Union.
So what happened during the Ides of March in 2020?

The Rise of Global Fascism | Public Occurrences, Ep. 80
We begin today’s show with a review of John W. Whitehead & Nisha Whitehead’s article from The Rutherford Institute, “The Rise of Global Fascism” (https://www.rutherford.org/publications_resources/john_whiteheads_commentary/the_rise_of_global_fascism_and_the_end_of_the_world_as_we_know_it) which in part reads:
“This new world order—a global world order—made up of international government agencies and corporations owes its existence in large part to the U.S. government’s deep-seated and, in many cases, top-secret alliances with foreign nations and global corporations.
This powerful international cabal, let’s call it the Global Deep State, is just as real as the corporatized, militarized, industrialized American Deep State, and it poses just as great a threat to our rights as individuals under the U.S. Constitution, if not greater.”
The podcast closes with a plea to those involved in this movement to quickly understand the ramifications of their actions before the damage that is done to our society is irreversible.

A Great Reset of Energy: Part 1 | Public Occurrences, Ep. 79
The crisis that our nation is now facing over the escalation of the price of oil and gas does not come as a surprise to the Biden Administration. That is why you had Kamala Harris, Joe Biden, Pete Buttigieg and others calmly and joyfully discuss the transition out of oil and gas and into electric cars and “renewable energy.” The Biden Administration was not surprised at the spike in oil and gas: they created the spike.
And not only is the Biden Administration responsible for the spike in gas and oil, but also corporations such as Black Rock who have helped to design this painful transition of the west into truly unsustainable energy. Black Rock’s emphasis on ESG investing and the transition to the World Economic Forum’s 2030 Agenda has been well documented.
Accelerating gas and oil to unsustainable prices for the average person is not the end goal of governments and corporations entangled with the World Economic Forum. The primary goals are:
-Ending personal, volitional freedom of movement
-Ending the ownership of personal vehicles
-Eliminating the reliance on the petro dollar
-Creating reliance on stakeholder controlled corporations
-Eliminating energy sources that can be uncontrollable and untraceable
-Disrupting and dismantling western nations
-Elevating impoverished nations through the use of gas and oil resources
This has very little if anything to do with punishing Vladimir Putin for his incursions into Ukraine: it will not be Russia that is punished. The nation that will endure pain and hardship in this financial crisis will be the United States of America.

Prologue: A Great Reset of Energy | Public Occurrences, Ep. 78
The Biden Administration is now plainly admitting that their energy plan is in official transition: transition from our reliable fossil fuels and transportation into an electrified digital world of ride share and self driving automobiles.
Once again, the Marcusian-inspired administration has taken the path of the World Economic Forum and has turned to the now familiar game of “there is a crisis and we must change now” rhetoric that everyone should be well aware of.
But this pseudo crisis was born at a time when the elites were having their own crisis of a massive drop in trust of the citizens that they wish to control. This lack of trust means that there will be no easy convincing of the millions of people that live in the United States. So their answer to this dilemma is the same as their answers in the past 2 years: start another religion. Make the sacrifice and crushing economic hardship a virtuous religious exercise for the common good accompanied with devils and angels and all of the other trappings of religious faith. Make the people feel good about destroying their own economic system - give them a reason to suffer - and give them a reason to punish those that resist.
But the reasons behind this transition are not the plainly on display to those who are under the consequential rule and subjugation of the ruling tyrants; there is another game afoot. That game, just like every other play that the left has unfolded over the past few years, is based on power and control.
