    THE HISTORICITY OF JESUS

    I am not unique, in the assumption that the following would need to be true in order for the myth to originate:

    – a jewish preacher existed

    – he had followers (disciples)

    – the temple event turned him into a problem.

    – he was crucified for creating that problem.

    – his ‘strategy’ was adopted by his followers (Saul)

    I suspect also that:

    – the betrayal occurred – but i can see that being added.

    – ‘love expansion’ argument was his innovation and an important one.

    And the rest evolved from there.

    That is all that is needed for the formation of the entire mythos.

    THE EVOLUTION AND THE CONSEQUENCES

    – The old testament was added to give the character legitimacy in historical context.

    – The single event was integrated into the then-evolving sun-god cults dominant in the empire but with egyptian, roman, and persian variations. In other words, the new-jews produced a jewish version of the sun god mythos.

    – The sun god mythos was turned against the empires rather than assisting people in integrating into those empires.

    – This strategy of undermining the empires from within through a resistance movement by the women and the underclasses was more successful in the period where empires were powerful.

    – The muslims evolved from a christian cult, and their strategy was more effective in the period when the empires were weak from the plague and the persian – byzantine wars.

    – The Marxist (jewish), postmodernist (christian), and islamist(muslim) techniques evolved as resistance movements – in no small part due to a fear of the darwinian/spencerian/pareto-weber-durkheim/nietzchean/maxwellian revolution. And were conceived as a resistance and rebellion movement (Jewish marxism), a method of undermining the empire in period of weakness (christian postmodernism), and an outright attack on the great civilizations of modernity by invasion, territory claiming (temples/churches), reproduction (depopulation), and terrorism(warfare).

    – The answer to the ancient world and the modern is simply to preserve civilization and prevent jewish and marxist, christian and postmodernism, and muslim and islamicist dark ages, just as we prohibited the communist revolution, and just as the romans tried during the christian prosecutions.

    HISTORICITY

    So far as i can tell, scholarly opinion on the historical figure seems to coalesce on a preacher (storyteller), baptism, followers, temple event, crucifixion.

    This could have been a very, very, minor person, and the events only known to followers, and much like Arthur or Gilgamesh, continually embellished for the purpose of claiming greater wisdom and authority to the speaker, embellished by expansion into a prophet, embellished through the appropriation of the various old world sun god myths, until it was able to spread reliably through anchoring (replacing ) larger earlier figures, rather than originating a new narrative.

    So by appropriating the sun god cult story that had been evolving from its oldest form in egypt to its persian form (mithras) to its third iteration in the roman for (sol invictus) it could turn the sun god cuts from positives that assisted people in integrating into the ancient empires, into a resistance movement that sought to destroy those empires.

    And without the licensing of the rebellion by constantine, and ending the persecution of rebels, and the forcible conversion of rome to it later, and the closure of the schools, and the collapse of rome eighty years later, the project would not have been successful.

    And we might have been weakened by the plagues, but never been defeated by the muslims and never had such a dark age, and the spread of abrahamic ignorance across the entire old world.

  • YOU WANT TO KNOW HOW THE CHURCH LIED? THE CRIMES OF CHRISTIANITY? THE LAST WORD.

    YOU WANT TO KNOW HOW THE CHURCH LIED? THE CRIMES OF CHRISTIANITY? THE LAST WORD.

    (be careful. these words are dangerous.)

    But I’ll make a few technical and unavoidable statements.

    1) Gods exist only as literary characters for the purpose of anthropomorphic communication of phenomenon that cannot be explained due to ignorance, using ideal(symbolic and non causal) or real(existential and causal) terms. In other words, anthropomorphic characters provide decidability through empathy with the unit of measurement requiring the least use of reason available to man.

    2) The organizations and leaders of the churches and temples, or their constituent priests, rabbis, and imams do not, will not, and have not stated this. And instead state exactly the opposite.

    3) The bible is pure myth and wisdom which we can choose to use to but is, was represented, and was intended to be presented as history and law which we must obey or suffer punishment.

    4) Jesus was probably a real figure, but everything attributed to his birth and rising is a restatement of ancient astrology, where the transition between stellar descent (minimum) and ascent requires three days. Everything that jesus said is reducible to “regardless of who rules, do not be divided, and instead, extend kinship love to non kin, and in doing so, exhaust tolerance, because it is by this degree of forgiveness trust is built among our disparate peoples with different customs.” This is a far more scientific explanation of the golden and silver rules.

    5) Christianity was produced from the teachings of Jesus by Paul (Saul) and his adherents, just as the works of Marx in the dogmas of marxism and postmodernism was spread by the Frankfurt School, Alinsky school, and Postmodern school. The ‘oppression’ literature of christianity was evolved and argumentatively transformed and expanded just as the ‘oppression’ literature of marxism, postmodernism, feminism, and identitarianism have been evolved and argumentatively transformed in the present era. Just as precisely the same was done with Islam and Judaism.

    4) From the tolerance of christianity to the forcible conversion to christianity and the persecution of pagans, it took only eighty years to destroy the empire. What had been a minority cult of the slaves and women, largely via women, was used to destroy the heroic and temporal civilization of the ancients. The consequence of christianity and the church was the destruction of the aristocracy both in rome and on the continent, the destruction of knowledge, the intentional hoarding of literacy, and the incremental accumulation and misallocation of and freezing of capital that prevented the recovery from the invasions and the plagues, and kept europe in a dark age until it was cast off again by the enlightenment as the scholars in the muslim world fled the spread the cancer of islam to the common people just as the church and byzantines spread the cancer of christianity to the common people. And the church, having transformed the warrior people of europe who desired to be ‘romans’ in adopting roman law and commerce into people who desired to be christians in christian mysticism and deceit, was too weak to resist both the rise of the North Sea Trade (Far from its reach), and the use of re-popularized greek (european) thought as a means of rebelling against the enslavement by poverty and ignorance of the church.

    The church was not only instrumental in the creation of the dark age by the attacks on the aristocracy and the thought of the aristocracy, but the cause of its prolongation.

    5) There is no difference between Judaism + Christianity + Islam, and marxism + postmodernism + feminism. It is precisely the same tactic repeated in the modern era as was used in the ancient era: immigrate, population, convert, resist, undermine, replace, and the successful return of Neolithic Feminine Equalitarianism that the Aristocratic (Aryan) Revolution evolved to resist and transform all mankind out of ignorance.

    The church is anti-western. To the degree that it is western it is only that the west resisted it. (See “Germanization of Christianity”)

    There is no reason that all of the goods of any religion cannot be provided without such institutionalization of lies and the consequential manufacture of ignorance.

    It is painfully obvious from intelligence data that the primary benefit of modernity has been the exchange of superstition and many small functional rules, to science and a few general descriptive rules, and the consequence has been the release of human intellectual capital imprisoned from the origins of abrahamism to its most recent death throws under abrahamic marxism, boazianism, freudianism, cantoranism, feminism, postmodernism, and identitarianism.

    CLOSING

    Abrahamism, in its three ancient, and three modern forms, was, is, and always will be, the source of ignorance, by which human intellectual, experiential, genetic, and material, and territorial capital is frozen dead.

    if there exist any gods, then the jury is in: The god of abraham is most certainly none other than the demon Lucifer – the Morningstar.

    Cheers.

    (1) Shinto: position: partial (approaching random) information. Action and cognition directed towards the replicable: precise repetition of ritual in addition to ancestor and nature worship, respectively.

    (0) Buddhism: random, in-actionable information. In-actionable information creates a preference for avoidance/disassociation. Action directed towards escaping conceptualization, accounting and calculation: escapism via meditation.

    (-1) Christianity: partial construction of misinformation. Action and cognition directed towards group in attempt to extended kinship altruism, and create feelings of [physical] security + belonging (social security).

    (-2) Islam: near-complete construction of, and dependence upon, misinformation. Action and cognition directed towards demonstrating and enforcing submission through high-cost of ritual.

    the point I want to get across is *what are the social consequences of mass production of mindfulness by each means?* And the answer will be not ‘kind’ to mysticism.

    each form of government produces order with different externalities. each form of ethics produces behavior with different externalities. each form of training for mindfulness produces behavior with different externalities.

    What are the consequences of obtaining mindfulness by the different methods advocated in each civilization?

    What does that tell you?

  • NIETZSCHE AND EVOLA Nietzsche and evola were trying to free us from christianity

    NIETZSCHE AND EVOLA

    Nietzsche and evola were trying to free us from christianity, but failed to escape abrahamism: the occult.

    Nietzche used personal emotional suffering as the person’s trial, rather than demonstrated competition in reality as did homer’s achilles.

    In this sense, Nietzche only managed to transition from abrahamic slave morality to platonist morality : the morality of the dream state – the imagination.

    So Nietzche and Evola are still supernatural (Occult) fantasies that seek only psychological achievement, not demonstrable achievement. Nietzche and evola create a heaven of the mind, not a heaven on this earth – created by and owned by and rule by men.

    If you come to understand this you will understand why I seek demonstration in reality not belief. And why I ridicule the occultists for hallucinations rather than demonstrations.

    There is no higher aristocracy than one that is made by action. And that is homer’s Achilles Ordeal, Odysseus’s Ordeal before the bronze age collapse, Alexander’s Ordeal and Fall after the bronze age restoration, and Aeneas ordeal in rome.

    The future will treat Napoleon, Stalin, and Hitler the same.

    And in the present it is our time. Our era. Our life times during which the next set of myths will be created – or a dark age will follow.

    RELIGION? HOW DO YOU KNOW (AS A HUMAN and MAN) – OR DO YOU JUST FEEL (AS AN ANIMAL or WOMAN)?

    What is the consequence of christianity vs the consequence of roman pagan festival, political law personal stoicism?

    Why do you think christianity contains “truths” rather than a strategy and tactics. And unless you know the different strategies and tactics, and how they map to the competitive evolutionary strategies of the groups that use them, then how do you know what you’re saying is true?

    I mean, what is the difference between the tragedy of achilles and the tragedy of jesus? You know, jesus’ tragedy was invented to undermine that of achilles – which was the ‘bible’ of the ancient world.

    Just as abrahamism was invented to destroy the persian, anatolian, greek aristocracy, jesus’ story was invented to destroy the persian, anatolian-byzantine, roman aristocracy. Just as marxist and postmodern abrahamism was invented to destroy the anglo-german aristocracy. It works the same way every time: rally the women and the underclass such that it affects the income of the middle class so that they threaten the upper class and destroy the civilization.

    How do you know that religion does what you say it does? What is the difference between good and true religion and bad and false religion?

    THE CORRECT PRACTICE OF PRAYER, RITUAL, AND SACRIFICE

    –“Roman religion depended on knowledge and the correct practice of prayer, ritual, and sacrifice (not ‘wisdom’).

    The priesthoods of public religion were held by members of the elite class. During the Roman Republic (509–27 BC), elected public officials might also serve as augurs and pontiffs.

    Priests married, raised families, and led politically active lives. Julius Caesar became pontifex maximus before he was elected consul. The Roman triumph was at its core a religious procession in which the victorious general displayed his piety and his willingness to serve the public good by dedicating a portion of his spoils to the gods, especially Jupiter, who embodied just rule.

    Each home had a household shrine at which prayers and libations to the family’s domestic deities were offered. Neighborhood shrines and sacred places such as springs and groves dotted the city.

    The Roman calendar was structured around religious observances. Women, slaves, and children all participated in a range of religious activities. Some public rituals could be conducted only by women, and women formed what is perhaps Rome’s most famous priesthood, the state-supported Vestals, who tended Rome’s sacred hearth for centuries, until disbanded under Christian domination.”–
