"You have to have men who are moral... and at the same time who are able to utilize their primordial instincts to kill without feeling... without passion... without judgment... without judgment! Because it's judgment that defeats us."

- Colonel Walter E. Kurtz (Marlon Brando), Apocalypse Now

"Have you ever considered any real freedoms? Freedoms from the opinion of others... even the opinions of yourself?"

- Colonel Walter E. Kurtz (Marlon Brando), Apocalypse Now

A reminder

"At first there is the rational encirclement of the opponent, then the societal one; finally, at the appointed hour, he is exterminated. No more desperate fate exists than getting mixed up in a process where the law has been turned into a weapon."

- Ernst Jünger, The Forest Passage

"Jews and half-jews may not enter"

"May everything come true. May they believe. And may they laugh at their passions. For what they call passion is not really the energy of the soul, but merely friction between the soul and the outside world. But, above all, may they believe in themselves and become as helpless as children. For softness is great and strength is worthless. When a man is born, he is soft and pliable. When he dies, he is strong and hard. When a tree grows, it is soft and pliable. But when it's dry and hard, it dies. Hardness and strength are death's companions. Flexibility and softness are the embodiment of life. That which has become hard shall not triumph."

- Stalker, Stalker 1979

"Dr. Snaut: When man is happy, the meaning of life and other eternal themes rarely interest him. These questions should be asked at the end of one's life.

Kris Kelvin: But we don't know when life will end. That's why we're in such a hurry.

Dr. Snaut: Don't rush. The happiest people are those who are not interested in these cursed questions."

- Solaris 1972

Excerpt from Eumeswil by Ernst Junger, p222

A government which gives the illusion of free will and choice, nudging people towards what the government want and making people believe they have made a choice by themselves, is more tyrannical than a government which is openly and clearly telling it's people what to do.

I find dictatorships more trustworthy, if I were to live under one.

A non-diciplined population with individualism as its basis with a small government, and the belief that the population knows what's best for itself, quickly breeds pride and arrogance as well as a general decadence of sociality. Secularization grows and the only thing defending your existence is a piece of legal document, while one can only hope it's defended and upholded.

Perhaps they even come to idolize this legal document, for it's the only thing justifying their existence, while in the meantime parts of it are slowly plucked away.

Legal document zealotry.

I find it noteworthy that, in the current world situation, the masses in more centralized governments put the responsibility on the state rather than on themselves as individuals, while protecting yourself, or at least improving your situation, is easy. They lack creativity and motivation.

People grow old and miserable health wise and then point their fingers at the state.

"Look what you did, State. I'm miserable, and I rely on you to make me feel better."

My experience with godless individuals have been less than optimal, which is to be expected. Most particularly those actively against God. Arrogance and pride is a factor, and is more prevalent among certain groups. We can see how miserable these people are even though they say they are fine, arguing and telling people how stupid religion is.

I, myself, have been in that atheist phase which became a thing many years ago on YouTube, but now I'm here.

I'm not bothered by people who lie to me saying that they are doing fine without God, because lying to oneself in these matters is more damaging.
