About Me:
For those who are curious, my screen name has a couple of differing meanings to me, chief among them being the duality of mankind, represented by a symbol of both purity and guilt. I have a fascination with horses, I actually own 7 of them currently, and I've liked the idea of combining the two of the most known legendary depictions of the horse, namely the Nightmare and the Unicorn.
I've been a reviewer for The Metal Archives online web community, otherwise known as the Encyclopaedia Metallum since early 2005. If you visit www.metal-archives.com and do a search for hells_unicorn you will find over 1000 reviews for artists in various sub-genres from Black Metal to Gothic Metal. I was recruited to write album reviews and conduct interviews with bands on The Metal Observer webzine in mid 2008.
I'm a guitarist/songwriter in a Power Metal band called Ominous Glory. We are currently working on a 5 song demo that should be completed sometime late this year. I am also a student of philosophy, both Platonic and Aristotelian, and very much interested in literature of both the real and fictitious variety.
Politically I defined myself as a Libertarian of the more extreme minarchist persuasion. I identify pretty heavily with the anti-Federalist founding fathers such as Patrick Henry and Samuel Adams, and see little need for any federal government or a standing army. I support militias, an end to fiat currency and the federal reserve, and the reinstatement of the US Constitution, with some further restrictions on the federal government in line with anti-federalist objections.
To any that are unfamiliar with the views expressed above, I am openly hostile to both Anabaptist/Evangelical Neo-Cons and Secular New Leftism. Both of these ideologies are inherently hypocritical, violent and diametrically opposed to the actualization of the individual will. I reject a necessary conflict between the one and the many as espoused by Communism, Theistic Positivism, Pantheism, Unitarian Universalism, Fascism/Corporatism, Welfare Statism, and most forms of Collectivism and Egoism.
I am also strongly Pro-Life, contrary to the Libertarian Party which is largely wishy-washy on this issue, there is NO liberty without life, and the concept of parenthood being some form of slavery or that human beings are parasites when in their infancy is the most revolting of nonsensical propaganda pushed by collectivist scientists and eugenicists. I am not necessarily openly hostile to those who have some disagreements with me on regards to birth control and the extremely early cases of abortion (first 1/2 of first trimester per say), but I do not agree with these viewpoints either.
Theologically I am a fairly staunch Augustinian, though I take many an occasion to read Aristotelian Catholic writings for educational purposes or out of nostalgia for my days as a Neo-Thomist and student of Dominican teachings. I have aligned myself with the Sedevacantists and completely reject Vatican II and all the antipopes who have held office since John XXIII, but I have also rejected the false decree of Papal Infallibility instilled in Vatican I, which has thus put me in schism with both Rome and the Sedevacantist orders. I currently receive the Eucharist at a Polish Monastery that was once affiliated with the Old Catholic Union Of Utrecht that offers the original Latin Mass, but I support all translations of the bible and church services into the vernacular languages of every nation, provided they do not corrupt the original intent of the Hebrew and Greek original writings. I have no association with the Roman Church as it exists today, nor with the Society Of St. Pious X, who have proven themselves to be a false conservative alternative to the decaying Roman Church. I support the restoration of control to the council of churches, the repeal of all false dogmatic teachings since the 2nd council of Nicaea, and am open to conversation with any confessing Christians of sound theology.
Though I originally approached youtube with a policy of toleration of all viewpoints and didn't make it a habit of blocking people, I have modified my policy to account for the utter trollish garbage that many are capable of and have elected not to waste my time with this sort. Just make sure your arguments are on-topic and your not here to just cause trouble.

I find it to be interesting and a good essay topic for my History 205 class. On how Classical Liberalism, it seems to be hijack by the Leftists we have today. Again I appreciate it and keep on opening people's eyes.
Peace & Respect
