"Imagine the level of thriving Man would experience if he collectively submitted himself to Christ"

I am a Christian, and don't thrive. I endure this horrid existence forced onto me, like Job endure his afflictions. The Bible teaches that during the endtimes, only few will still believe in Christ.

Regarding the Crusades, as Vox Day writes in "The Irrational Atheist" (PDF is free on goodreads), "the dread Spanish Inquisiton was less than one-fourteenth as deadly on an annual basis as children's bicycles." (p. 219).

Rodney Stark is an agnostic, as far as I know.

Being a Christian does not solve mean that one lives in bliss, I almost suffer more than when I was atheist (and hanged myself).

Even Paul wished for death (Phil. 1:21-23).

I am also mentally ill and genetic scum, my father would never have been able to force his scummy genetics onto me if we still had marriage and penitentiaries for the sex-obsessed beasts.

I cannot read much theology because of how trite, tacky and trashy it is, with the exception of Kierkegaard and Pascal. As Gómez Dávila writes:

Christianity is an impudence which we must not disguise as kindness.

Eugenics appals those who fear its judgment.

No beneficiary of slaves is supporter of birth control.

The individual who lies to himself, just like the society that does not lie to itself, soon rots and dies.

Depopulate and reforest – first civilizing rule.

Although it grieves the angelism of the democrat: one cannot build a civilisation with miserable biological material.

The two most pressing problems of the contemporary world: demographic expansion and genetic deterioration are unsolvable.

Liberal principles prevent the solution of the first, egalitarian ones that of the second

Christianity does not solve “problems”; it merely obliges us to live them at a higher level.

Those who claim that it does solve them entangle it in the irony of every solution.

The evolution of Christian dogma is less evident than the evolution of Christian theology.

We Catholics with little theology believe, in the end, the same thing as the first slave who converted in Ephesus or Corinth.

The heart does not rebel against the will of God, but against the “reasons” they dare attribute to it.

The temptation for the churchman is to carry the waters of religion in the sieve of theology.

The impertinent attempt to justify “the ways of God to man” transforms God into a frustrated schoolmaster who invents educational games that are both cruel and childish.

“Life” (in emphatic quotation marks) is the consolation of those who do not know how to think.

Men can be divided into those who make their life complicated to gain their soul and those who waste their soul to make their life easier.

Sex does not solve even sexual problems.

In the end, there is no area of the soul sex would not succeed in corrupting.

It is above all against what the crowd proclaims to be “natural” that the noble soul rebels.

What we discover as we age is not the vanity of everything, but of almost everything.

Despite what is taught today, easy sex does not solve every problem.

By merely looking at the face of the modern man one infers the mistake in attributing ethical importance to his sexual behavior.

Modern man’s life oscillates between two poles: business and sex.

Modern society is abolishing prostitution through promiscuity.

Sensuality is a cultural legacy of the ancient world.

Societies where the Greco-Roman legacy is being wiped out, or where it does not exist, only know sentimentalism and sexuality.

To liberate man is to subject him to greed and sex.

This century has succeeded in turning sex into a trivial activity and an odious topic.

When the modern consciousness suspends its economic routines, it only oscillates between political anguish and sexual obsession.

Sexual promiscuity is the tip society pays in order to appease its slaves.

The problem is not sexual repression, nor sexual liberation, but sex.

Sex and violence do not replace transcendence after it has been banished.

Not even the devil remains for the man who loses God.

The 19th century did not live with more anguish because of its sexual repression than the 20th century with its sexual liberation.

Identical obsession, even when the symptoms are the opposite.
