We need to say whom we feel opposed to—theologians and everything with theologian blood in its veins—the whole of our philosophy…

Christianity is called the religion of pity… Pity runs counter to the whole law of evolution, which is the law of selection. It preserves whatever is ripe for destruction; it fights on the side of those disinherited and condemned by life, and it gives a depressive and questionable character to life itself by keeping alive an abundance of failures of every type.
I understand corruption (as I am sure you have guessed by now) in the sense of decadence: my claim is that all the values in which humanity has collected its highest desiderata are values of decadence.
I call an animal, a species, an individual corrupt when it loses its instincts, when it chooses, when it prefers things that will harm it…
Life itself appears to me as an instinct for growth, for survival, for the accumulation of forces, for power: whenever the will to power fails there is decline.
You should not beautify Christianity or try to dress it up: it has waged a war to the death against this higher type of person, it has banned all the basic instincts of this type, it has developed its concept of evil, of the Evil One himself out of these instincts—the strong human being as reprehensible, as ‘depraved’.
Christianity has taken the side of everything weak, base, failed; it has made an ideal out of whatever contradicts the preservation instincts of sound life; it has corrupted even the faculties of those natures that are intellectually most vigorous by teaching people to see the highest spiritual values as sinful, as deceptive, as temptations. The most lamentable example—the corruption of Pascal, who believed that his intellect had been destroyed by original sin, whereas it was actually destroyed by Christianity! —
Humanity does not represent a development for the better, does not represent something stronger or higher the way people these days think it does. ‘Progress’ is just a modern idea, which is to say a false idea. Today’s European falls far below the European of the Renaissance.

God – postscript
It has been two months since I reproduced the entry ‘God’ in which Jung analyses the god of Judeo-Christians. It is so important that I will include it in the 2018 edition of Day of Wrath (the present edition of the book is from December 31, 2017).
I would like to say something about what is being discussed in one of my recent entries about the Shroud of Turin, especially what the Catholic Gaedhal says.
It is good to follow Jack’s advice in that thread of discussion: get acquainted with what I have translated for this site authored by Manu Rodríguez. I’m not sure why: but freethinkers who have roots in Spain are somewhat more aware of the calamity that Christianity represented than the English-speaking freethinkers. I have translated a lot of the other Spaniard, Evropa Soberana; but I should translate a little more of Rodríguez; and it is amazing how three Spanish speakers if I count among them, have maintained very similar views about Christianity.
The crucial thing is that the very idea of ‘God’ is toxic and deadly for the Aryan. Nietzsche saw it very well in the final words of his best book:
Sixth article.—The ‘holy’ history should be called by the name it deserves, the cursed history; the words ‘God’, ‘saviour’, ‘redeemer’, ‘saint’ should be used as terms of abuse, to signify criminals.
Seventh article.—The rest follows from this.
The point is that, as Constantine and the other Christian emperors dedicated themselves to erase all traces of the Aryan gods, and in their place implanted in the white psyche the god of the Jews with incandescent neon letters, every time someone revolts against the implant a ‘bug’ arises, so to speak, in those who unconsciously continue to defend Western Christian Civilisation instead of salivating for its collapse.
It was Nietzsche who saw ‘God as a spider’—his words—which is what Yahweh really is for the Aryan mosquitoes that fall into his net. If we are to win the chess game to the Jews, the first thing we must do is checkmate their god. It’s amazing that white nationalists fail to see something so obvious. The Covingtonistas that on Twitter are puzzled why the Aryan does not defend himself should begin to think that the cause is that he has a major bug in his mind, the god of the Jews.
If one visits the blogs of a typical white nationalist it is apparent that none promotes an internal Jihad. They want to save the race by means of slight changes, such as deleting and adding programs instead of the radical change of the Operating System itself (changing from PC to Linux in their spirit, so to speak). It is precisely for this reason that, although many believe that they have left Christianity and the Jewish god behind, they continue to say neo-Christian things, just as I mention in my last quotation from Linder, instead of hating the enemy more ferociously than loving one’s life.
If only hatred for the enemy can save the Aryans, God is a Spider: but a spider for whites only (ethnocentrism for me—Old Testament—, universalism for thee—New Testament). What Gaedhal proposes is, basically, to continue to honour the Spider and put on it a cosmetic Aryan garment without killing the monster behind it.
That, as have seen the two Spaniards mentioned above, is impossible.
I have complained that what is killing whites is what I call ‘partial apostasy’ when what we need is a ‘total apostasy’. The only way to transvalue all values, as Nietzsche says, is to start weaponizing the sacred words of Judeo-Christianity as insults to the unredeemed Aryan, which includes quite a few white nationalists. Wanting to save the Aryan race from extinction without purging the alien—the very idea of God—is similar to Ridley Scott’s Alien in that they didn’t remove the arachnid-like parasite stuck in Kane’s face.
The problem I am posing is not what shall replace humanity in the order of living creatures (—the human is an endpoint—): but instead what type of human should be bred, should be willed as having greater valuable, as being more deserving of life, as being more certain of a future.
This more valuable type has appeared often enough in the past: but only as a stroke of luck, as an exception, never as willed. In fact he was precisely what people feared most; so far, he has been practically the paradigm of the terrible; —and out of terror, the opposite type was willed, bred, achieved: the domestic animal, the herd animal, the sick animal, —the Christian….
The weak and the failures should perish: first principle of our love of humanity. And they should be helped to do this.
What is more harmful than any vice? – Active pity for all failures and weakness – Christianity…
—Let us look ourselves in the face. We are Hyperboreans, — we know well enough how remote our place is. ‘Neither by land nor by sea will you find the way to the Hyperboreans’: Pindar had already known this about us. Beyond the North, beyond ice, beyond death — our lives, our happiness…
Better to live on the ice than among modern virtues and other south winds!…

This book belongs to the most rare of men. My day won’t come until the day after tomorrow. Some men are born posthumously.
You need to be used to living on mountains—to seeing the miserable, ephemeral little gossip of politics and egoism of the peoples beneath you.
These are my only readers, my true readers, my predestined readers: and who cares about the rest of them? The rest are just humanity. You need to be far above humanity in strength, in loftiness of soul, —in contempt…
—Friedrich W. Nietzsche
