Someone recently asked me;

But what about that “fear of God “ business that is going on in Christianity...

What you say about this?

The Japanese embassy in Paris repatriates up to 20 tourists a year, sending them home with a doctor or nurse to ensure they recover from the shock.


The problem appears to be growing worse instead of improving, as there have been reports of Chinese tourists, part of the country's emerging middle class travelling abroad for the first time, experiencing the syndrome.

"Ideology, for many people, is a de facto faith. Ideology is the religion for people who view themselves as too smart for religion.

And like a lot of other religions, they offer salvation, but the type of salvation they offer is a little bit different.

They offer earthly salvation, and again, that's dangerous...when you're providing earthly deliverance, all is permitted:

the gulags, the concentration camp, beheadings, and after all, ends that glorious will always justify the means that vile."

Daniel Flynn

>On the beach stood the adverse array, a serried mass of arms and men, with women flitting between the ranks. In the style of Furies, in robes of deathly black and with dishevelled hair, they brandished their torches; while a circle of Druids, lifting their hands to heaven and showering imprecations, struck the troops with such an awe at the extraordinary spectacle that, as though their limbs were paralysed, they exposed their bodies to wounds without an attempt at movement. Then, reassured by their general, and inciting each other never to flinch before a band of females and fanatics, they charged behind the standards, cut down all who met them, and enveloped the enemy in his own flames.

The issue is, after the slaughter was over, the Romans themselves realised they took part in a huge sacrifice. Yes, the Druids set up a trap for the Romans and they fell. The Druids were the actual sacrifice and the Romans the hand that offered them to their own Gods. Obviously the soldiers turned white immediately after understanding what truly was going on. Tacitus wrote extensively on the matter.

Tacitus's denoscription of the sacred groves and altars slaked in blood is similar to that given by the Roman writer Lucan writing about Julius Caesar's encounter with a site near Marseilles in Southern Gaul: "Interlacing boughs enclosed a space of darkness and cold shade, and banished the sunlight from above. ... Gods were worshipped there with savage rites, the altars were heaped with hideous offerings, and every tree was sprinkled with human gore. On these boughs ... birds feared to perch; in those coverts wild beasts would not lie down. ... Legend also told that often the subterranean hollows quaked and bellowed, that yew-trees fell down and rose up again, that the glare of conflagration came from trees that were not on fire, and that serpents twined and glided round the stems. The people never resorted thither to worship at close quarters, but left the place to the gods. When the sun is in mid-heaven or dark night fills the sky, the priest himself dreads their approach and fears to surprise the lord of the grove ( dominum luci )." [1]

In a similar fashion the captives of the Cimbri are recorded by Strabo as having their throats cut over a cauldron: "Their wives, who would accompany them on their expeditions, were attended by priestesses who were seers; these were grey-haired, clad in white, with flaxen cloaks fastened on with clasps, girt with girdles of bronze, and bare-footed; now sword in hand these priestesses would meet with the prisoners of war throughout the camp, and having first crowned them with wreaths would lead them to a brazen vessel of about twenty amphorae; and they had a raised platform which the priestess would mount, and then, bending over the kettle, would cut the throat of each prisoner after he had been lifted up; and from the blood that poured forth into the vessel some of the priestesses would draw a prophecy, while still others would split open the body and from an inspection of the entrails would utter a prophecy of victory for their own people; and during the battles they would beat on the hides that were stretched over the wicker-bodies of the wagons and in this way produce an unearthly noise."
