Christ the feminine



Christianity is feminine. Jesus called his followers to turn the other cheek. A masculine religion like Odinism called for his followers to rise up and destroy the ice giants. One is for a tolerance of evil. The other is for its destruction. The feminine is explicitly left and Christ was feminine. While history may not appear as a solid leftward march it was not for a lack of ideology. The same could said for the feminists or the abolitionists. If you recall that Socrates called for freeing the slaves and equal rights for women. His arguments are just as good today as they were then but it wasn't until the prosperity of technological advance that the slaves could be free and women were liberated. It was not so much the lack of moral underpinnings to the problem but the necessity for slaves and housewives. Once slaves became economically inefficient they were freed. Once women were redundant thanks to washing machines, public schools, and household appliances they were put to work outside the home. The leftist ideology has always been in Christianity. The equality of all men’s souls. The tolerance of evil. None of that changed or had any effect for millennia because it couldn’t. It needed prosperity, technology, and opportunity to become active but there lay a kernel of leftism dormant within Christianity since its inception.


There are few men in Christianity compared to women for a reason. It prattles endlessly about love because it is a feminine religion and the feminine is the source of leftism. The likely stop to global leftist thought will not be imposed by men but by nature as we either reach the redundancy of human labor or the leftist singularity destroys the whole.

  3. Good post. If you look at the history of Christianity over the last 1000 years it's utterly useless at defending it's own believers. Take the medieval Ottoman-Turkic invasion of the Balkans, the Kings and Princes beseeched the Church to help them, but the Church did nothing. When it came down to it, the only way that the Kings fended off the Ottomans for so long was by sticking together with their family and kinsmen. Stephen of Moldavia and Vladimir of Wallachia were cousins.

    It's like Christianity converts people at the point of the sword (like it did to people in Scandinvia in 1000 AD and South America in 1500 AD) and then, now this is the really insidious part, it denies them the ability to defend themsleves if they are attacked by another group. Can you believe it?! It converts people by means of violence, and then denies them the use of violence to defend themselves. And all the while Christians proclaim themselves decent, peace-loving people of God! What type of God would deny a man the ability to defend himself? Certainly not the God of the universe, or any other God that deserves to be worshipped. Odin may or may not be the supreme God of the universe, but at least he affirms the right to defend self should the situation demand it.

    That ain't Christianity: it's Catholicism. And I don't think it's even Catholicism, since the Crusades were all about 'defending' pilgrims on their way to the Holy Land. You've mixed up different things, there.

    In response to the claim made in the article, the Christian position (though you won't often hear it stated explicitly in a church, even though it's there in the Bible) is that this world is toast -- most people in it are selfish and will walk all over others; they hate God and are therefore headed for eternal destruction. Jesus calls people out of this way of life (Christians were never meant to "convert people at the point of a sword", simply to warn people that they were headed for Hell, just as Jesus did). The price for leaving the dog-eat-dog world and to follow Christ is to end up scorned and even hated by the world and even (as is commonly the case around the world today and throughout history) persecuted and killed for one's faith. The picture in the Bible is that the Christian has vengeance on his enemy, but not at his own hand: God will repay those who hurt his own -- and will do so with interest.

    Christian love isn't a sentimental, feminised love which is all about feelings: it's simply acting to help; seeing what someone needs, and doing it (as with the good Samaritan), just as you yourself would want, were the roles reversed. You don't even have to like the other person: you do it because in so doing, you're giving the wicked world and its wicked ways the finger and are siding with God instead. And when a Christian turns the other cheek and loves his enemies in this way, it isn't touchy-feely feminine passivity: in fact, it isn't even primarily for the benefit of the other person, but rather to separate the Christian from the world and make him more like God is.

    I guess you haven't read verses like this one...
