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!…
The title page of the manuscript of Der Antichrist. Fluch auf
das Christenthum (The Antichrist: Curse on Christianity).
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
Instalment 17 of Ferdinand Bardamu’s essay revealed things I did not know about the history Christianity. It also reminds me of one of the passages that most haunted me of Nietzsche’s The Antichrist, which I have already quoted a couple of times but it’s worth re-quoting:
§ 61
Here it becomes necessary to call up a memory that must be a hundred times more painful to Germans. The Germans have destroyed for Europe the last great harvest of civilisation that Europe was ever to reap—the Renaissance. Is it understood at last, will it ever be understood, what the Renaissance was? The transvaluation of Christian values: an attempt with all available means, all instincts and all the resources of genius to bring about a triumph of the opposite values, the more noble values…
To attack at the critical place, at the very seat of Christianity, and there enthrone the more noble values—that is to say, to insinuate them into the instincts, into the most fundamental needs and appetites of those sitting there…
I see before me the possibility of a perfectly heavenly enchantment and spectacle: it seems to me to scintillate with all the vibrations of a fine and delicate beauty, and within it there is an art so divine, so infernally divine, that one might search in vain for thousands of years for another such possibility; I see a spectacle so rich in significance and at the same time so wonderfully full of paradox that it should arouse all the gods on Olympus to immortal laughter: Cæsar Borgia as pope!… Am I understood?… Well then, that would have been the sort of triumph that I alone am longing for today: by it Christianity would have been swept away!
What happened? A German monk, Luther, came to Rome. This monk, with all the vengeful instincts of an unsuccessful priest in him, raised a rebellion against the Renaissance in Rome…
Instead of grasping, with profound thanksgiving, the miracle that had taken place: the conquest of Christianity at its capital—instead of this, his hatred was stimulated by the spectacle. A religious man thinks only of himself. Luther saw only the depravity of the papacy at the very moment when the opposite was becoming apparent: the old corruption, the peccatum originale, Christianity itself, no longer occupied the papal chair! Instead there was life! Instead there was the triumph of life! Instead there was a great yea to all lofty, beautiful and daring things!…
And Luther restored the church.
By the way, it is nice that Jack Halliday, as a kind of spokesman for The West’s Darkest Hour, is trying to communicate, in other forums, our message as in this thread of Occidental Dissent. I wonder if the admin of that site, a Lutheran, has been following what we have been saying about Luther, the Reformation, and Christianity in general.
But I understand the distant neighbours of the North. Here in the south all secular intellectuals, without exception, are idiots, including the criollos (in English see here and in Spanish here). It seems that the apostates of Christianity fall automatically into a much worse ideology: ethnosuicidal liberalism and cultural Marxism. But that is also courtesy of Christianity itself, as we have been seeing in Bardamu’s essay.
Since I mentioned Jack Halliday, I would like to take this opportunity to mention another commenter of this site, Spahn Ranch, who is keen to see aspects of Christianity that I couldn’t say better.
The ultimate conclusion
Compared to the previous editions, in this 2018 edition of The Fair Race’s Darkest Hour, I have eliminated my introductory remarks to each chapter and also a dozen essays. Only the texts that have caused a considerable impact on my worldview have remained. The first two pieces, especially Andrew Hamilton’s, explain the baffling phenomenon of Aryan ethnosuicide. However, I must say that I not only abridged Hamilton’s piece for this collection but other essays as well.
Any regular visitor to my blog The West’s Darkest Hour knows my witches’ brew metaphor to explain White decline: Hardwired characteristics in the White psyche since prehistoric times such as individualism, universalism, weak ethnocentrism, plus the cultural ‘software’ of materialism and Judeo-Christian ethics—ironically, strengthened after the French Revolution—, together with the Nazi myth after the Second World War (cf. the first article of this collection), have created a lethal brew for the White peoples.
In this compilation, there are two texts that may be considered as the antidote for the brew. The first one, a book review by J.A. Sexton of Tom Goodrich’s Hellstorm: The Death of Nazi Germany, 1944-1947, informs us about a Dantesque, heart-breaking Holocaust committed by the Allies on the Germans even after the war was over.
The second is a translation from Spanish of an online book authored by a Catalonian blogger who uses the penname Evropa Soberana. No single text has produced such eureka moment in my intellectual life as Rome contra Judea; Judea contra Rome. Compared to this redpill, the output from the pro-White webzines looks purple: palliative meds between the bluepill and the redpill because the editors are still sleeping in the matrix of Judeo-Christian ethics.
Rome contra Judea is only one of several translated texts of Evropa Soberana that appear here. I did some modifications to Soberana’s texts and even took the liberty to correct some errors and add a few phrases of my own, as explained in the footnotes. For example, in Soberana’s quotation of § 24 from Nietzsche’s The Antichrist I added another phrase from the same § 24 that shows the gulf between White nationalists and us:
Christians can think of themselves as anti-Jewish without understanding that they are the ultimate conclusion of Judaism.
White nationalists, who also coined the phrase Alt-Right, ignore that those Whites who worship the god of the Jews are, ultimately, ethnosuicidal. From our point of view, unless and until they, including the atheists, reject Judeo-Christian ethics, ‘Judea’—the Jews in the Diaspora—will continue to be winning over ‘Rome’—the native Aryans. Any racist under the illusion that he is red-pilled would do well to read Soberana’s translated essays.
Charles Darwin predicted that blacks would be exterminated in the future. Alas, precisely because of subscribing Christian ethics, it is Whites, including the advocates of the Alt-Right, the ones who are heading toward extinction. After World War II the members of the White population have drunk the brew with such fanaticism that their cognitive processes can only be diagnosed as a folie en masse. It is my hope that, when reaching the last page of this book, the Aryan reader will have the motive to revalue his values back to the hard ethos of ancient Rome. That is the price to save the race.
Transvaluation of all values!
