    I think the victorians represent the high point of NAVAL western civilization(Athens) while the Prussians represent the high point of MARTIAL western civilization (Sparta), and americans Represent the PRAGMATIC high point of western civilization (Rome).

    I think the problem with Russia is that it never developed a middle class and it’s the middle class that morally organizes society into voluntary trusting orders.

    Which is pretty common knowledge in economics.

    Liberty starts with aristocracy but it is distributed as a mass consumption good by the middle classes. Why? Martial orders are involuntarily constructed by commands (warriors), commercial orders are voluntarily constructed by contracts(merchants), and social orders are competitively constructed from norms(priests/public intellectuals).

  • We Already Had The Second Coming…

    WE ALREADY HAD THE SECOND COMING, AND IT WAS AS CATASTROPHICALLY TRAGIC FOR MANKIND AS THE FIRST TIME AROUND. **What’s the difference between the Apostles, the Council of Nicaea, The Pulpit, and Boaz/Freud/Marx, The Frankfurt School, the Media? Nothing.*** The difference is one of technological sophistication. The great lies of Jewish and Christian Mysticism, and the great lies of Secular Pseudoscience.

    They feared the truth of Jupiter, Aristotle and Roman Law. They feared the Truth of Darwin, Spencer, and Nietzche. They created great lies to compensate. The great lies in the hands of women and proles are as powerful as the great truths in the hands of the aristocracy.

  • The Failure of Traditionalists

    THE FAILURE OF THE TRADITIONALISTS TO UNDERSTAND OUR OPTIONS. At present we have traditionalists that don’t understand the content of their traditions, only that through mandatory indoctrination and ritual do we behave aristocratically – in the western tradition. The Patriarchy for example, is popular primarily by appeal to traditional (aristocratic) aesthetics. Under the assumption that the church was the originator rather than the recipient and beneficiary of the aristocratic tradition.

    The Traditionalists do the same. But the church is just a temple for the weak side of the aristocracy. It’s not that we don’t need our great temples, and that we don’t need our great artistic achievements, but that My point is not to demean the church or advocate for atheism (individualsm) rather than a civic religion (familialism). Nor is it to deny that commercial empires have been as damaging for western civilization as has been our great wars, and our invasion by christian mysticism. My point is that we can create a civic religion out of truthful content rather than lies. Why? We do not need to appeal to a fantastic utopia that may be the home of false gods. WE MADE THAT UTOPIA EXISTENTIAL BY OUR ANCESTORS ACTIONS. We need no gods. Only heroes. And we have legions of them. COMMENTS
    Monotheistic Religion requires submission and submission is incompatible with sovereignty. And the experience of Liberty requires existential sovereignty.

    I don’t reject natural law. I don’t reject extension of kinship love. I don’t reject prohibition on inbreeding. I don’t reject aristocracy and paternalism. I do reject mysticism. I do reject the great babylonian, egyptian and jewish lies. and most importantly I do reject submission. And furthermore, so does the vast majority of the population. One need not respect or propagate mysticism in order to extend kinship love, reject prohibition on inbreeding, or reject submission. One does need natural law, common law, and civic rituals. No one requires civic rituals that include mysticism. The feeling of spirituality occurs whenever a body of people move, speak, or think in unison. That’s where it comes from: running with the pack. The church as it stands is the enemy of europe and the european peoples. It is not that we do not need a church, nor to to reform the church, it is that the church has failed us since the reformation. And continues to fail us. Why? Because enlightenment and literacy and knowledge make mysticism not only no longer possible, not only unnecessary, but it’s antagonistic to the population. So, how should the church reform?
    John Kersey: Most traditionalists I know also reject the Reformation, being either traditionalist Catholic or Orthodox. The Church did not fail us until it fell victim to secularism. Also, mysticism is not all there is to the church, indeed mysticism has generally been very tightly controlled by the church. Submission is characteristic of some religious beliefs, and is integral to Islam. But it is not the basis of Christianity, which rests not upon compulsion but on a voluntary, free-will relationship between God and man created in His image. That relationship is nothing more than drawing ourselves closer to the essence that made us and that governs and knows our every impulse.
    Putting aside submission to the will of God, and putting aside the failure to adapt to secularism (science)… Then if you cut all the nonsense out of Christianity what would you teach from the pulpit. My view is that the church can teach from its history without the need for superstition. The catholic encyclopaedia is a pretty good canon.

  • Specialization In Everything

    Athens indeed gets the credit for what were often spartan victories. And that is because navies (hamiltonian ethics) are more rewarding than armies (jeffersonian ethics). And that western europe (france, italy, and britan) had prosperous navies only because germany held the territories against invasion. And that rome was prosperous as a naval and trading power that fought with marines, but failed as an army because the cost of holding land was too great.

    So my position (like most of my positions) relies upon the observation that specialization produces better armies, navies, and prosperity. Just as american entrepreneurship, british banking and finance, italian arts, german engineering, and russian military produce specialties that no one could produce on its own.

    Um. If you’re white european. You came from Ukraine. That’s how it is. It’s just a question of which wave you came in, and whether you took the water route to the south, or the european plain route to the north of the black sea.

    The north sea-black sea formed our agrarian genetic cauldron …

    Just as the agean-black sea formed our hellenic cauldron …

    Just as the North-sea-mediterranean formed our germanic cauldron ..

    Just as the eastern and western atlantic formed our colonial expansion cauldron…

    Just as our easter-pacific western-pacific is forming our technology cauldron.

    The north black sea is the home of light haired small nosed white people(Aryans), and the south black sea is the home of black haired large nosed white people (iranians). And the groups that invaded the Dravidians seems to have initially been from the north. With the larger nosed black haired people spreading somehow between north mongolia and turkey, then being forced out by the chinese. Leaving only fading of their shared history in the Japanese language. Whether it was the Black Sea Deluge that dispersed our people is up for debate. But the black sea is pretty clearly our cauldron and for europa, Ukraine is our Urheimat (home).

    That’s name calling and not an argument. The objective was same in both the ancient world, and the modern: kill aristocracy.
