    SMART: WHY THE EASTER VALUE OF ORTHODOXY

    —“Orthodoxy came before any written culture or urbanism had take root in those regions. As such, there was a syncretism with the local customs and religious practices, who’s traces remain visible to this day, in various folk and orthodox objects. The roman “invaders” where offering a higher level of culture, so we took it. There was no inquisition, no which hunts. Mass literacy, and the translation of the bible, occurred far latter here. (Around the 19th century, in 1899 it was at about 22% ), which is when some savvy writers, now part of our national cannon, started collecting our folklore and putting it in written form. So the folk and the church coexisted more or less harmoniously. Not that they could afford great conflicts and fanciful notions with the Turks knocking at our door. Every orthodox region has differences in art and architecture reflecting local folklore. I’d say it might have made us ‘meek’ these days, but I’m seeking to illuminate our attachment towards it. If “historical memory” begins with written records, then there was nothing (for us) before orthodoxy. Not a pagan “past”, so much as a pagan “amniotic fluid” surrounding our “orthodox” history. Note how this differs from the West’s situation.”— Dan Fodor

    We, at least in the upper classes, remember our pagan origins.

    I think those of us whose cultures went through church governance, the reformation, the empirical revolution, enlightenment, and the scientific revolution, and repeated justifiable retaliation against the churches, have a clearer view of the distinction between christianity and the rest of our culture.

    I have been working to understand the Russian fascination with orthodoxy and other than these admittedly influential eras, I can’t understand it. And I still can’t comprehend why people don’t grasp the difference between the ancient greco-roman world, and the semitic, and the total loss of reason for a thousand years.

    The difference is between monopoly justified by submission superstition, ignorance, and fraud, and markets justified by sovereignty, reason, knowledge, and law.

    Contact with the east ruined Alexander, Macedon, and Greece. Contact with the east ruined Rome and Europe. Contact with the east is ruining anglo, germanic, slavic, and Russian civilization. The east is a cancer that rules by the expansion of ignorance superstition and fraud. There is every good reason to understand that trust increases with distance from the Bosporus north and west, and decreases from the Bosporus south and east.

  • Remove the Abrahamic Veneer and Their False History

    My favorite part about “Right Wing” Enthocentrists is how they superimpose Aryan imagery over Jewish ideas. Jehovah isn’t a vengeful volcano demon, he’s a bearded guy in the sky who looks like Zeus! The afterlife isn’t drab nonexistence in Sheol, it’s atop a mountain in the clouds like Mount Olympus! Jesus wasn’t a hand rubbing heretic screeching and kvetching at Pharisees, he was a barrel chested embodiment of a God, like a Hercules! Schaul wasn’t capitalizing on an unorganized cult’s doctrine for spiritual power among Goyim, he was a man who had a vision and became an Oracle! All are Aryan ideas, superimposed on top of Semitic poison by their instinctive horror at the reality of the religion they follow, to better swallow it. All illusion, no substance.—A Friend Christianity has incorporated way more classical greek and paganism that the christians are willing to admit. Just look at famous iconographies of christian saints or Jesus himself. Almost all are depicted with an halo which comes from the worship of Apollo, son of Jupiter and later under Aurelian from the Sol Invictus cult. Almost all important chrisitian festivals have a pagan background. Easter(Ostara) is pagan and the most famous Christmas(Saturnalia as well as Birth of Mithras the bull slayer) even more. The christians even conduct pagan rites up this day like during Christmas being generous, decorationg homes with laurels,trees and handing out presents to each other. Another important point is the christian mass which is nothing but a roman pagan ritual in light form. You invocate the god with prayers, offerings like bread,wine and incense and ask for protection and well being. As a roman pagan I actually smile everytime christians think its inherently theirs, knowing all of this comes from pagan Rome, Greece and Persia :)”—Alexander
