i am not a cultural christian, i do not celebrate christmas and i do not see christianity as a way to somehow block other religions from infiltrating western culture. if i am anything, i am a cultural pagan, or a cultural europeanist, and i see little difference between christianity, islam and judaism in terms of their content, or their ability to destroy cultures and wipe out societies.

it is difficult to ignore the reality that christianity is a less extreme force for evil in this worth than islam, although i would hesitate to call christianity moderate. there's plenty of victims of christianity out there. to the extent that christianity is less extreme than islam, it has little to do with the contents of the religions, which are basically the same thing, and more to do with the underlying societies. white europeans experienced an enlightenment period that arabs have not yet experienced and for that reason were able to extricate themselves from the retarding influence of the religion and extirpate it from their societies in ways that arabs have to this point failed to succeed in accomplishing.

that is not a beneficial characteristic of christianity, it is a statement of the superiority of the underlying western culture, that was able to throw off the yoke of jewish mythology.

as a cultural pagan or europeanist, i see christianity and islam as being identical to each other and equally dangerous, in theory, if not currently in practice. it would not take much for the tables to reverse.

i am not celebrating saturnalia this month, but if i were to celebrate anything, it would be the solstice, and the ways of the ancestors, and not christian mythology, which should be left behind.
