By the way, I am not reproaching Christianity for defending the weak who are unjustly oppressed. I reproach Christianity for exalting weakness and viewing it as a sign of election and title of glory. I reproach Christianity for not helping the weak become strong.
And I’m not arguing against the principle of equality per se, but the obsession of a doctrine that pursues the progressive equalisation of life, which in a world that is complex and diverse, and necessarily generating inequalities, can only end up in the gradual loss of energy: entropy.
In a way, being Westerners we cannot be but Christian (some sort of). I choose the Christian valorisation of truth as something worth dying for – a step beyond the Socratic stance – as the positive aspect of the Christian West, and this is what makes me tell you that traditional Christianity is just an exercise in LARPing.
