Sometimes the modern West is called Christian, but this is completely false. Modern consciousness is profoundly anti-Christian because it is essentially anti-religious. And it is anti-religious because it is anti-traditional in the broadest sense of the word.
— René Guénon
The political, economic, and social order, created in everything only for temporary life, is peculiar exclusively to the modern world, that is, to the anti-traditional world.
— Julius Evola
The development of modern humanity truly resembles the movement of a body thrown down a slope and advancing the faster the closer it is to the bottom.
— René Guénon
Between the traditional spirit and the modern spirit there is really no consensus, and every concession in favor of the latter is made at the expense of the former, because in essence, the modern spirit is only the negation of all that the traditional spirit represents.
— René Guénon
[O]ne of the essential characteristics of our time is the complete disappearance of the Christian substratum, an important historical phenomenon, which explains the degradation of America's ruling classes.

I see the West as a civilization that has exhausted its moral and social capital. Many people today worry about the depletion of energy resources. My strongest concern is the depletion of the social and moral resources inherited from our religious base.

By bombing Iran's nuclear facilities, Israel has opened the Pandora's box of nuclear terrorism.
Why Did Einstein Refuse the Presidency of Israel? | Princeton Alumni Weekly
"From current events in Israel, many of us believe the nature of the Jewish government in Israel hasn’t changed much from Einstein’s time. That’s simply because, as a political entity, Zionism is a form of fascism, and no political party of Israel can ever be truly democratic if it furthers Zionist ideals."

Karl Jaspers, "The Question of German Guilt"
All Israelis and their backers must read this book and reflect on their personal responsibility for the crimes of Zionism (Jewish fascism).
The primary basis of the power and right of kings and chiefs, that is, what made others obey them, awe them and honor them, in the world of Tradition was their transcendent superhuman quality, which was not a mere figure of speech, but a powerful and awe-inspiring reality. ... In the same way, the idea that power is given to the ruler by those whom he rules, and that his authority is an expression of society and subject to its sanction, is completely foreign to the world of Tradition.
— Julius Evola
It is among the Anglo-Saxon peoples that Protestantism is rampant with the utmost intensity, and there, too, the taste for action is asserted in its most extreme and crude forms; as we have said, these two things are closely connected.
— René Guénon
Faith contains that truth whose form the heart has accepted, and which has been revealed to the heart to be known by it. The eye sees only the truth of its faith. The difference of faiths is no mystery. He who binds [God] to any faith denies Him in any faith other than that with which he has bound Him, and affirms Him in the faith with which he has bound Him in His manifestation. But he who frees Him from His binding, he does not deny Him at all, but affirms Him in every manifestation into which He transforms Himself.
— Ibn Arabi
All liberation depends on the consciousness of servitude, and the emergence of this consciousness is always hampered by the predominance of needs and satisfactions which, to a great extent, have become the individual’s own.
— Herbert Marcuse
"The old Christian societies were characterized by a consciousness of sin and a capacity for repentance. In this they were boundlessly superior to modern socialist societies which have raised selfishness, hatred and revenge to the rank of virtues." — Nikolai Berdyaev
Sounds so fresh.
Now I understand the feelings of those who have watched helplessly as their nations have gradually slipped into the nightmares of WW1 and WW2, further and further down the spiral of evil toward the ultimate triumph of the Shadow.

There are many signs that humanity has entered the final stage of Kali Yuga. One of them is that there are no great philosophers and scientists anymore. Real philosophy and science ended in the XXth century. Contemporary philosophy and science is a joke.
Trump is no friend of Russia. He has heavily sanctioned Russia, started arming Ukraine, continued the expansion of NATO, authorized the killing of Wagner fighters in Syria, etc. He is also no friend of Palestine but a friend of Zionist Israel. He is very dangerous, I expect nothing good from his presidency.
Those who ended the Eleusinian Mysteries and other offshoots of the primordial Tradition ended not only our direct access to Transcendence, but also our access to the clear vision of the truth about the universal brotherhood of all sentient beings.
The Shadow triumphs.
