“Now my doom is upon me. Let me not then die ingloriously without a struggle, but in the working of some great deed to be told among men hereafter.”
— Hector, The Iliad

HORRIFYING video from Miami Northwestern Senior High in Liberty City shows two black students punching, body-slamming, and stomping the head of 15-year-old White student Carlos Martinez in a school hallway.
After being beaten on the ground, Martinez gets up, pulls a knife, and chases his attackers, stabbing an 18-year-old in the back. A 15-year-old also suffered a hand cut.
Martinez is now facing aggravated battery and weapons charges, and the prosecutors want him charged as an adult. He was ordered to home detention, and his family states he had been threatened for days and acted in self-defense. Three people were arrested.
Once again, legacy media reports purposely omitted the race of the two assailants, while rushing to treat the victim of the beating as the primary villain.
I wouldn't necessarily say this is for or against Christianity or Nietzsche. The Romans were perfectly capable of inventing technology. But, just to use an example: When they invented a steam engine the only use they saw for it was opening temple doors to make the experience more mystical.
For any technology, there are two births: The first birth is when one discovers the technology. The second birth is when one discovers an application for the technology.
What we should ask is: Why didn't the Romans have the capacity to think industrially. Why is it that any piece of technology that was developed, the first thought was not "how can this make my work more efficient" but rather "how can this make the gods look more impressive". This actually speaks rather fondly of Roman virtue: Always putting the spirit first. It's not that they couldn't imagine things industrially (take, for example, the industrial infrastructure of Roman Barbegal), they simply weren't raised or trained to think in terms of efficiency. But rather, glory.
The mindset to think industrially also cannot be said to be "Christian". It is Germanic. After the Goths took over Italy, Senator Cassiodorus became the main middle man between the Roman Senate (Yes, it was still around!) and the Gothic Court. In these letters, the Goth's primary concern is not about conquest and religion, but about efficiency and technology. They are filled with letters by the Goths asking the Romans questions like "What is the quickest trade road?" and "How quickly can you build a clock?" and "Do we have the funds to repair the aqueducts?". The Gothic mind was clearly wired differently than the Roman mind. Romans ask how can they live most comfortably the life of a noble. Goths ask how can they live life most productively.
In terms of Christianity, the church greatly benefited from Gothic influence and shifted from focusing on abstractions to real concrete advancements in Europe. You can see this in archeology. Before the Goths, most of Europe was thatched roofs and dirt roads aside from the Roman Highways and metropolitan areas. After the Goths, most of Europe became stone and metal within a short three centuries.
We can thank the Church for being the primary middle men and negotiators between these two brain types, as it benefited Europe immeasurably. But the Church merely facilitated a friendly exchange of behaviors. It was fundamentally a Gothic mindset that built Europe up from islands of Roman urban civilization in an otherwise barbarous sea, to a continent-wide civilization.
I like to show the differences in Gothic and Roman thinking by looking at the ploughs each used in the rural landscape. One the left is a Roman Plough. On the right is a Gothic plough. The Goths simply thought technologically, while the Romans thought culturally. And the union of these mindsets defines Europe's ascent.
Every dad, every man should read Patrick Clancy’s 911 call transcript.
Dawson was his first son. The first son to a father is an incredible bond that only God can accurately explain.
My gut is wrenching and I cannot stop thinking about it.

I find Hildegard’s vision of the egg to be very sophisticated especially the division of the solar system into two sides of fire and the stars. Also mercury and Venus relating to the old+new testaments I like a lot.
For when we speak with barbarians, we use their language; and when we speak to a child, we lisp together with him, even if we are exceedingly wise; we descend to his lowliness. Thus also God, wishing to reach the understanding of the coarser ones, makes use of such words. PG55.89
“Everything is lost. I have no chance left.”
Remember this well: these words are not yours.
They are demonic.
They are the seal of despair pressed upon a soul that has taken its hope away from God.
Do not receive them.
Do not speak them.
Do not believe them.
Drive out every thought of this kind.
All things are possible to the one who has faith and prays to God.
For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.
Nick Fuentes walks through the Lindsay Clancy hung jury, where the mother who killed her three children is treated as the victim because of mental illness. He cites Fulton Sheen, who already named the American switch from talking in terms of morality and sin to neuroses, trauma, and diagnosis, so nobody is culpable. You cannot build a society on that, he says, because it becomes therapeutic morality where even killing is explained away.
"We always use the language now of mental illness rather than of morality."

@Nbkbn7j@XxJakez123xX@doaenel@Laurinchhe “Why would you call out baby murder bro, that’s so weird”
No, it’s actually YOU who are weird for supporting the murder of the defenseless.
@doaenel@Laurinchhe Wait, so if this baby was a person, the baby you had your wife kill was also a person, correct? Is it only a person when you actually want the child?
