CHRISTIANITY Simple and Painful. Proto, early, and ancient european civilization

CHRISTIANITY
Simple and Painful.

Proto, early, and ancient european civilization was aristocratic and Conquest and Slavery of lesser peoples were expensive methods of evolving a polity from primitivism to civilization and the great achievements of the Greeks, Romans, and Germanics.

The middle east had solved much of the problem of the costs of slavery through supernatural religion (compared to european supernormal religion).

Christianity when imported from the middle east, first through Byzantium, where the Byzantines were in constant contact with the non-aristocratic civilizations understood the utility first, and in particular understood that christianity was a rebellion against aristocracy by the slaves, serfs, underclasses, and women – a resistance movement where they could obtain status from one another rather than by achievement or service to the aristocracy.

The success of abarhamic religions like the success of the marxist sequence lies in this anti-darwinian system of resistance, rebellion, and the social equivalent of ‘raiding’ – which is the military and political method of islam. Both are incremental system of political, social, and intellectual destruction that destroy civilizational capital becuse of the inferiority of the lesser classes.

Yet christianity was only successful as “churchianity”, and was germanicized by the europeans, into european trifuctionalism, where the faith, the common and traditional law, and the military aristocracy were all preserved, and the church captured as a holding company for land by the european aristocracy.

So the end result was slavery, serfdom, freemen, citizens and sovereigns – just as in the ancient world. But the common people: slaves, serfs, freemen, and women had a governing institution that included both education, counsel, and some court functions – in personal, familial, and social arenas. And the military aristocracy had a holding company and literate administrators.

But they no longer needed to practice slavery conquest and rule nor bear the high cost of doing so as did the ancient europeans, or the middle east.

So while the church kept the people ignorant and dependent instead of teaching them literacy and independence – meaning they were still slaves by words rather than slaves by force – the cost savings was achieved.

Unfortunately, as later evidence demonstrated with the printing press and literacy, and the decline of the church as a consequence, the vast unparalleled corruption of the church, and the failure of the church to reform from fundamentalism (literal scripture), into Deism and Natural Law (philosophical religion), despite the Catholic Church’s opportuity in every era – they favored the money not the faith.

It turns out then that education is the optimum means of producing a social political and military order. But what one is educated in – morality, ethics, natural law, and nationalism – is more important that even the sciences.

We humans do many things wrong. Becuase we work with ignorance, trial and error as our only guide. But we can, if we seek the truth regardless of cost, and reciprocity regardless of cost, and sovereignty regardless of cost, eventually discover that deism, natural law, stoicism and epicureanism, and the laws of physical universe are the optimum method of existing and evolving in that universe – in the condition of harmony and prosoperity puncuated with the stresses of adapting to our discoveries – and the added stress and effort of dragging along the laggarts who desperately want to feel a sense of understanding and control that suppresses their neuroticism and insecurity by sophistry, magic, and supernatural pretense.
