Must read! "Instead, the triumph of the machine will be its ruin, and the ruin of the modern project. ... All that will remain of our attempt to build God will be the songs of those who still sing to the true God amidst those smoky ruins."

Death to the Machine – Death to the World

We must abolish all thinking machines. Mankind must follow its own path. No machine can do a man's thinking for him. — Frank Herbert, "Dune"

If war is inevitable, then all future world history depends on what kind of people will win: those who recognize only violence, or people of the type who are guided in their lives by the demands of the spirit and the principle of freedom. — Karl Jaspers

The only serious racism that has existed in history is Jewish racism. The association of religion with blood and nationality, the belief in the chosenness of a people, the preservation of the purity of the race — all of this is of Hebrew origin, introduced by the Jews. I do not know whether the German racists notice that they are imitating the Jews. .... There have always been and are two races in the world, and this division is reckoned more important than all other divisions. There are crucifiers and crucified, oppressors and oppressed, haters and hated, afflictors and afflicted, persecutors and persecuted. It requires no explanation as to which side true Christians should be on. Roles here may change in history. — Nikolai Berdyaev, 1938

During the 1947-48 war that led to the creation of the State of Israel, a number of massacres, as well as the rape and murder of Palestinian women, were committed by Jewish troops. In addition, between 450 and 500 Palestinian villages were simply wiped out. We know that because of the work of a group of so-called "new historians" — Israelis who challenge traditional views of history. The best known of these is Benny Morris, whose study of the 1948 war is based on extensive archival research of predominantly Jewish sources. As a result of these massacres and rapes, hundreds of thousands of Palestinians fled their homes, often in fear of what might happen to them. — from the book “The Darker Angels of Our Nature: Refuting the Pinker Theory of History & Violence”, translated from Russian

[T]he emptiness that follows Christianity produces a deification of emptiness, a nihilism that seeks the destruction of things, people and reality. Nihilism is the matrix of the new religions. The real new mass religion today is a cult of war. — Emmanuel Todd

Russia is our Rorschach

Last April, I was interviewed by a Russian television channel about Western Russophobia and I had an epiphany.

Roman Catholicism was not Christianity; ... Rome proclaimed Christ subject to the third temptation of the devil. Announcing to all the world that Christ without an earthly kingdom cannot hold his ground upon earth, Catholicism by so doing proclaimed Antichrist and ruined the whole Western world. — Fyodor Dostoevsky, "Demons"

Trump could easily end the war in Ukraine by cutting off all aid and sanctioning the criminal Kiev regime and its supporters. Instead, he broke his election promises and chose the path of a proxy war with Russia that leads to WW3. Demon. Russian blood is on his hands.

The denunciation of the evil and sin of war should not be permitted to lead to absolute pacifism, to peace at any price. In the evil condition of our world, war may be the lesser of two evils. — Nikolai Berdyaev

I believe that hope and new insight transcending the narrow limits of the positivistic-mechanistic thinking of social science today are needed, if the West is to emerge alive from this century of trial. Indeed while Western thought from the thirteenth to the nineteenth century (or, perhaps, to be exact, up to the outbreak of the First World War in 1914) was one of hope, a hope rooted in Prophetic and Greek-Roman thought, the last forty years have been years of increasing pessimism and hopelessness. The average person runs for shelter; he tries to escape from freedom and he seeks for security in the lap of the big state and the big corporation. If we are not able to emerge from this hopelessness, we may still go on for a time on the basis of our material strength, but in the long historical perspective the West will be condemned to physical or spiritual extinction. — Erich Fromm

The god of Israel is not the God of Christ. There is an unbridgeable gulf between the god who demands bloody sacrifices and the God who demands love. The god of Israel is the Shadow.

Hitler and his accomplices, that small minority of tens of thousands, are beyond moral guilt for as long as they do not feel it. They seem incapable of repentance and change. They are what they are. VIOLENCE ALONE CAN DEAL WITH SUCH MEN WHO LIVE BY VIOLENCE ALONE. — Karl Jaspers

Metaphysical guilt is the lack of absolute solidarity with the human being as such—an indelible claim beyond morally meaningful duty. This solidarity is violated by my presence at a wrong or a crime. It is not enough that I cautiously risk my life to prevent it; if it happens, and if I was there, and if I survive where the other is killed, I know from a voice within myself: I am guilty of being still alive. — Karl Jaspers, 1946

There exists a solidarity among men as human beings that makes each co-responsible for every evil and every injustice in the world, especially for ...

Hardly many of those who made a nationwide deal with "God" at Mount Sinai realized that the entity they were dealing with was not at all what it appeared to be. The same goes for other agents of otherworldly manipulative will who have rushed to the conclusion that it is "divine" or "angelic" in nature. Unfortunately, confusing Light and Shadow is a human tradition.

Your [American] prominent figures, like George Kennan, say: entering the realm of big politics, we can no longer use moral guides. This is how, by mixing good and evil, right and wrong, the ground is best prepared for the absolute triumph of absolute Evil in the world. — Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, 1978

...There are only two types of people in the entire West... To the first type belong hardened idiots who take loud slogans seriously and believe in their "civilizing mission" without even noticing the degree of materialistic barbarism to which they themselves have fallen. To the second type belong insidious scoundrels who take advantage of the general mental degeneration of the majority to indulge their filthy instincts of violence and self-interest. — René Guénon

After Serbia, Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Ukraine, Gaza, Syria, and Iran, what else do you need to see to understand that the West has become pure evil?

Today ... it is the defense of the West that is more often spoken of, and this is strange indeed, since ... it is the West, in the maelstrom of its own chaotic activity, that threatens to drag all of humanity into the abyss. ... Indeed, the West feels the need for protection, but only protection from itself and from its own tendencies, which, if carried to their logical conclusion, will inevitably lead it to destruction and death. — René Guénon

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
