The Christian Question

My answer to the Christian problem.

I’ve largely been avoiding this topic because of the nature and behavior of some of the more passionate proponents of this topic and its sensitivity in White identity politics. I generally take the stance that we should be minimizing infighting, but this argument keeps popping up, and I’ve observed it to be particularly destructive on multiple occasions. I write this mostly to have my position documented and referenceable, and to make an appeal to those who are entertaining the ideas presented by the Christian Question (CQ) people.

On one hand, I don’t think the faction has much traction, but the few adherents it has seem to be incredibly energetic and motivated, to say the least – or perhaps “annoying” would be a more appropriate word (and yes, I recognize that Christians can sometimes be worse in this regard). Their presence, I believe, is largely overstated, but also not totally insignificant, as even a few religious zealots on either side have the power to disrupt and bring an otherwise cohesive group to a grinding halt. Either way, I’ll take the opportunity to express my opinion on the matter and why I believe tolerance for Christianity is an integral position for pro-White advocates if there is to be any hope of success for us in the near future.

There are many angles from which to approach the topic that immediately come to mind. I plan to address several of those angles, but I feel as though each one on its own should be reason enough to conclude that attacking Christianity is the last thing any purportedly pro-White person should be doing. If you want my honest opinion, the only people who could possibly be doing this are either subversive autists who don’t truly care about obtaining a sovereign, prosperous future for White people and are really just in it for the “love of the game” of politics and controversy, paid/compromised actors, or people who generally lack depth of thought and consideration. In that generalization, I am not including people who simply disagree with Christianity and believe religion should be left out of National Socialist politics, but people with real animus towards Christians, believing them to be “just as bad as the Jews,” and posting “Jew on a stick” memes on X.

Nearly all the arguments that I’ve heard – which I’ve waited for some time to hear out at this point – can be easily addressed and dismissed with a proper understanding of scripture and history. The points that I’ve heard which do have some validity, to me, seem to point to the more logical solution of correcting the understanding of today’s Christians regarding the topics of race, Judaism, and politics generally – which is not at all the historical Christian understanding. Much of what I’ve heard, however, amounts to disingenuous semantics and cheap rhetorical tricks and questions. They’re playing their own version of an optics game. But rather than playing defense against the attacks of the CQ people, I’m here to make assertions.

We Are All You Have

One of the most crucial aspects to consider right off the bat is the sheer number and proportion of the pro-White political sphere that is Christian. I’m personally involved in six different groups that are in this sphere. Of those groups, three of the more radical ones are nearly all Christians (80-90%), one of them which is explicitly National Socialist is maybe half Christian (this group is more politics-focused, so it’s hard to say for sure), one is run almost entirely by Christians (many in the group are project volunteers and faith is not discussed), and finally one that is actively involved in attempting to work on state legislation in my area is entirely Christian, I believe (and no, it is not Christian-exclusive).

I say all of this to make the point that you absolutely cannot win while making enemies of the people who constitute almost the entire movement and a good majority of the people you claim to advocate for and wish to win over. Someone who believes that “the real problem is Christianity” and that “Christianity must be uprooted from White people in order for us to succeed” has no concept of the reality around them and is almost definitely not involved in the real work and activism taking place across the country. Plus, given that much of this information can probably be readily understood and assumed by anyone with any level of awareness, it’s hard to conclude that the CQ people are anything other than a destructive, subversive group which should be treated with anything other than absolute, unwavering intolerance and contempt.

Again, this attitude is not at all directed towards non-Christians generally, but only those who make it one of their primary missions to de-Christianize White people because they believe it to be the thing holding us back. I have several friends that consider themselves Pagans, and I have no issue with them. We have an understanding that what unites us is our blood and that we really have no business arguing about religion while we’re currently being wiped out. I’ll take the opportunity to say I have a similar attitude towards any Christians that would needlessly causing infighting and strife within a group.

Besides all of the people already involved in pro-White politics, we must remember all of those whom we wish to bring alongside. It is one thing for your average person to hear about racial identity politics – it is another thing entirely to pair that message with anti-Christianity. Even people who do not consider themselves Christian often have a favorable view of it, seeing it in a “utilitarian” light and likely considering themselves agnostic or nominal/cultural Christians. Of those who would be receptive to anti-Christian messaging, you’ll typically either find liberals who reject the other “blood and soil” part of your message or antisocial misanthropes who are motivated primarily by hatred of society and not by a love for their people – not the sort of people you want representing our message.

Christianity Is Our Heritage

This love for our people is where I make my final appeal. I can’t help but see the anti-Christian focus as what I would describe as something like a suicidal impulse. Today, Christianity makes up such an integral part of our history and a good majority of our recorded history. For about 1,500 years, Christianity has been the majority religion of nearly all European peoples, a source of inspiration for much of our greatest art and architecture. It would be difficult for a person who possesses real life and spirit within them to walk in the great churches built by Europeans and not feel an overwhelming sense of awe at the wonder our people were inspired to create for our Creator.

Yes, I understand the argument that this is a natural outworking of what is natural within the European person, but you cannot separate the wonderful things these men did from their belief in Christ – perhaps in fact but not in essence. It’s hard to put into words the amount of disrespect that is shown towards these great men when framing their closely held beliefs as the primary source of our current troubles. These men would almost certainly agree with us on all of the core issues facing European peoples today but would be horrified and disgusted with those who’d rather uproot Christianity altogether rather than working to uproot the many problems and clear, obvious errors that have sprung up in modern presentation of what is called Christianity today. The fact is made even more absurd by the fact that these errors largely sprang up in last 100 years or so.

The desire to shed Christianity, and often possess such hatred for it, is hard to read as anything other than disdain for our heritage – as a form of embarrassment and disgust with our history. While some may attempt to charismatically formulate their arguments about how they really do respect their ancestors’ beliefs and the architecture of the churches and the traditions, the product that comes out of most of them is a vile, mocking, hostile, condescending animus towards those who are supposedly their brothers. It is quite frustrating to see this taking place when there has never been such a threat as great as what we face today.

The answer, then, is not to attack Christianity itself. It’s to attack the ideas within the modern conception of it that have resulted in the world that we see today – ideas which are obviously false and destructive to anyone who has taken the time to understand them. This is actually a primary focus of my work, to highlight the congruency of Christianity and a racialist understanding of the world. I understand the contentions made by the CQ group and the essence of their concern is valid, but the approach they’ve taken is wicked and misguided. Truly, I understand the challenge that is presented by the modern manifestation of Christianity today and I aim to frame the views of what may perhaps be best described as National Socialism in a way that Christians understand it to be the only righteous path forward. The answer is to fight against the lies told by the modern Christian church and to correct its error, not to create an enemy out of those who ought to be your brothers.
