Christogenea Europe, Sunday August 31st 2014, William Finck's Opening Remarks
Welcome to the first episode of Christogenea Europe with myself and Sven Longshanks. I apologize for not advertising this program aggressively enough in advance, however I am certain that anyone interested will catch up with us. I am hoping that this program, which for the present time is planned for twice a month but may expand that schedule, becomes a place where Europeans especially can come and inquire about Christian Identity, but of course White men and women from other places on the globe are just as welcome.
For this first program, we hope to talk about paganism and Christianity in Europe today. Therefore I am going to start with some comments from the most prominent nationalist in recent history, Adolf Hitler. Doing that, I may succeed in alienating both pagans and perhaps certain Christians.
Adolf Hitler did not think highly of those Germans who attempted to revive artifacts from the ancient stories in order to create a modern religion. In Mein Kampf, Book 1 Chapter 12, Adolf Hitler had lambasted the Germanic Pagans of his day. He said that “...it is entirely out of harmony with the spirit of the nation to keep harping on that far-off and forgotten nomenclature which belongs to the ancient Germanic times and does not awaken any distinct association in our age.” He referred to “wandering scholars who were peddling Germanic folk-lore and who never accomplished anything positive or practical, except to cultivate their own superabundant self-conceit.” He went on to state that “Nobody of common sense would appoint to a leading post in such a movement some Teutonic Methuselah who had been ineffectively preaching some idea for a period of forty years.... It is typical of such persons that they rant about ancient Teutonic heroes of the dim and distant ages, stone axes, battle spears and shields, whereas in reality they themselves are the woefullest poltroons imaginable. For those very same people who brandish Teutonic tin swords that have been fashioned carefully according to ancient models and wear padded bear-skins, with the horns of oxen mounted over their bearded faces, proclaim that all contemporary conflicts must be decided by the weapons of the mind alone. And thus they skedaddle when the first communist cudgel appears. Posterity will have little occasion to write a new epic on these heroic gladiators. I have seen too much of that kind of people not to feel a profound contempt for their miserable play-acting. To the masses of the nation they are just an object of ridicule; but the Jew finds it to his own interest to treat these folk-lore comedians with respect and to prefer them to real men who are fighting to establish a German State.”
On the other hand, however, Hitler also condemned the organized religions of his time for contributing to the race-mixing which was already going on in Europe, rather than working to edify and preserve the stock of the people that had built European civilization. From Mein Kampf, Book 2 Chapter 2, he said:
“Those who do not wish that the earth should fall into such a condition must realize that it is the task of the German State in particular to see to it that the process of bastardization is brought to a stop.
“Our contemporary generation of weaklings will naturally decry such a policy and whine and complain about it as an encroachment on the most sacred of human rights. But there is only one right that is sacrosanct and this right is at the same time a most sacred duty. This right and obligation are: that the purity of the racial blood should be guarded, so that the best types of human beings may be preserved and that thus we should render possible a more noble development of humanity itself....
“How devoid of ideals and how ignoble is the whole contemporary system! The fact that the churches join in committing this sin against the image of God, even though they continue to emphasize the dignity of that image, is quite in keeping with their present activities. They talk about the Spirit, but they allow man, as the embodiment of the Spirit, to degenerate to the proletarian level. Then they look on with amazement when they realize how small is the influence of the Christian Faith in their own country and how depraved and ungodly is this riff-raff which is physically degenerate and therefore morally degenerate also. To balance this state of affairs they try to convert the Hottentots and the Zulus and the Kaffirs and to bestow on them the blessings of the Church. While our European people, God be praised and thanked, are left to become the victims of moral depravity, the pious missionary goes out to Central Africa and establishes missionary stations for negroes. Finally, sound and healthy--though primitive and backward--people will be transformed, under the name of our 'higher civilization', into a motley of lazy and brutalized mongrels.
“It would better accord with noble human aspirations if our two Christian denominations would cease to bother the negroes with their preaching, which the negroes do not want and do not understand. It would be better if they left this work alone, and if, in its stead, they tried to teach people in Europe, kindly and seriously, that it is much more pleasing to God if a couple that is not of healthy stock were to show loving kindness to some poor orphan [meaning a German orphan] and become a father and mother to him, rather than give life to a sickly child that will be a cause of suffering and unhappiness to all.” Hitler's remarks here on race were part of a discussion of eugenics in general.
Hitler understood that “the Jew finds it to his own interest to treat these folk-lore comedians with respect”, referring to the German pagans, and while he probably did not understand the Jewish role in the development of universalist ideas in the Christian churches, he nevertheless understood the Jewish role in the overall endeavor to pollute the blood of Europe. In Chapter 11, Book 1 of Mein Kampf where he spoke about the solely economic nature of the Jewish religion he said “the Founder of Christianity made no secret indeed of His estimation of the Jewish people. When He found it necessary He drove those enemies of the human race out of the Temple of God; because then, as always, they used religion as a means of advancing their commercial interests. But at that time Christ was nailed to the Cross for his attitude towards the Jews; whereas our modern Christians enter into party politics and when elections are being held they debase themselves to beg for Jewish votes. They even enter into political intrigues with the atheistic Jewish parties against the interests of their own Christian nation."
It is evident to many of the critics of European governments today that all of our politicians have done this selling themselves out completely to the economic interests of the Jews in favor of their own political success and against the interests of their own respective nations.
Note that in Mein Kampf, Hitler professed the understanding that atheistic parties were also Jewish parties. Atheism has been a cloak for Judaism throughout our entire modern history.
Here are four short statements from Adolf Hitler on the race issue, and while Hitler was certainly not an Identity Christian, all of these statements certainly do reflect Christian Identity beliefs concerning race and the Bible:
From Book 1 Chapter 2: "And so I believe to-day that my conduct is in accordance with the will of the Almighty Creator. In standing guard against the Jew I am defending the handiwork of the Lord."
From Book 1 Chapter 8: "What we have to fight for is the necessary security for the existence and increase of our race and people, the subsistence of its children and the maintenance of our racial stock unmixed, the freedom and independence of the Fatherland; so that our people may be enabled to fulfil the mission assigned to it by the Creator."
From Book 1 Chapter 10: "The sin against blood and race is the hereditary sin in this world and it brings disaster on every nation that commits it."
From Book 2 Chapter 1: "To undermine the existence of human culture by exterminating its founders and custodians would be an execrable crime in the eyes of those who believe that the folk-idea lies at the basis of human existence. Whoever would dare to raise a profane hand against that highest image of God among His creatures would sin against the bountiful Creator of this marvel and would collaborate in the expulsion from Paradise."
Hitler was a Christian who cared about his race, which is a real Christian ideal. Therefore he despised the organized churches, which to this day rather blindly promote jewish universalism and the destruction of race under the pretense of Christianity.
But neo-Germanic paganism does not supply the solid moral foundation required in order to sustain a society. Neither did ancient Germanic paganism, and many Germanic tribes turned to Christianity even before they fell under the influence of the Romans (i.e. the Goths and the Alans). Even the Eddas are heavy on posturing and light on the transmission of ethical or moral values, or anything else of actual substance. But from an outsider's perspective, I must say that today's neo-pagans for the most part give lip service to Germanic folklore, and then participate fully in jewish pop-culture.
On the other hand, today's so-called Christian churches are morally bankrupt, and most people have fallen away from them. Those who have not resorted to paganism have nevertheless stayed away, and have no moral or folk identity at all. Many of them call themselves “cultural Christians” but they have no idea what Christianity really is. Therefore except for a few Medieval Christian trappings, such as may be found in some of the holiday rituals, having no real religious compass they also participate fully in jewish pop-culture.
Perverting Christianity from within, promoting atheism, paganism, humanism from without, the Jew has everyone believing in nothing of substance, and everyone participating in the jewish religion of materialism and pop culture. The recent child-sex scandals are a result of the decadence which results.
The only effective answer to the Jew, and the only effective defense against threats such as the muslim, is a proactive and positive Christianity. This was the Christianity of Charles Martel, who saved France and in reality saved all of Europe from the muslim scourge at the expense of the self-righteous churches of his own time, and they hated him for it because it cost them their gold. While Martel fought off the aliens, the pagan Saxons who were kindred in race were a hindrance rather than being of any assistance to his cause. Martel's grandson, Charlemagne, eventually defeated them and turned them to Christianity.
The only form of Christianity which stands on a firm moral and historical basis is what we call Christian Identity, which we believe is the true Christianity of Christ and the apostles. It is the only Christianity which stands for God, morals and race. I hope that this will be the foundation for future discussion here on this program, both now and in the months to come.
