"We have knocked the old bourgeois views on the relationship between the two sexes off their pedestal. We despise the marriage certificate mentality, which demands a virgin bride and permits the husband, after ecclesiastical or official permission, to abuse his wife for anything. We despise the hypocrisy with which the newlywed husband attempts to mask "a past," or with which neighbors, friends, and relatives begin counting after the birth of the firstborn to see whether the young sprout arrived "properly" on time. We can only offer a mocking laugh for that mentality which recognizes illegitimate mothers and illegitimate children, but no illegitimate fathers. We do not expel the unmarried woman with her child from our community, although for us the family is the foundation of the national community. Mannish women and suffragettes have no place in our world. But neither do we discard the Muslim and Catholic views regarding the inferiority of women, which have manifested themselves both in witch persecutions and in the belief that women belong only in the kitchen. In all these matters, we do away with the prevailing bourgeois morality, even where it rests on ecclesiastical or so-called "divine" authority and "revelations." Our standard, the guiding principle of our actions and our worldview, is explored within our own being and can point the way there. But then it is also necessary that we reflect upon this very being in order to use it as a compass for our actions. In practice, it appears all too often that old bourgeois concepts are thrown overboard with great enthusiasm because it is simpler, but that the person concerned subsequently ends up in a kind of void in which the force field of one's own Nordic race is completely absent. In the relationship between man and woman, this leads—on both sides—to licentiousness. We must, however, realize that self-control has always occupied an important place in the highest expressions of our worldview and attitude to life. The discipline instilled in us, not least in the SS, is merely a first step on the road to self-discipline. The man or woman who does not carry these standards within themselves, or who lacks the strength or awareness to adhere to them, cannot be an example to us. Unbridled dynamism ultimately leads to self-destruction; the depopulation of the Germanic lands would be one of the consequences of this. Therefore, the instinctive and intuitive certainty of the path to be followed must not be lacking in the revolutionary act of our new generation."

"Traditionally, Christianity views women as human beings of second rank and marriage as a necessary evil. When we say "traditionally," we mean how it developed in the first centuries. Paul already says (1 Cor. 7:1): "It is better for a man not to touch a woman." Here, man stands for man! — and at the Second Synod of Mâcon (585), a bishop defended the position that woman is not a human being. Origen, one of the greatest Christian scholars of the second century, castrated himself. And his teacher, Clement of Alexandria, placed chastity above the marital state, although he was the first to sanctify marriage. Broadly speaking, this is still the view of the Church. Originally, the Church concerned itself little with marriage. It only blessed ("bridulms") after the marriage had been consummated. The announcement of marriage in the church ("the three calls") was already required by Charles the Frankish King and elevated to ecclesiastical law by the Second Lateran Synod. In the 14th century, a kind of ecclesiastical marriage emerged, as the priest took, or could take, the place of the secular marriage guardian. [...] This attitude of Christianity towards marriage can be traced back to the notion that sexual intercourse belongs to carnal lusts and stands in the way of, or detracts from, spiritual life, and is fundamentally sinful. The source of all this evil is the woman, who has therefore been called the "gate of hell." For the Germanic man, on the other hand, marriage is sacred in itself, and the Maternal is an aspect of the deepest essence of things. The Reformation, which represented a Germanic protest, therefore revised the notion that it would be better to remain unmarried. But it remained stuck halfway in this as well: it retained the patriarchal form of marriage, in which the man is the authority, the woman the subordinate, docile, obedient lesser half. We discussed this in SS-Vormingsbladen 1944, No. 12, pp. 383–385 and do not wish to repeat it here, but merely point out that it is un-Germanic. From this arose the Gretchen ideal. [...] In Eastern Semitic terms, the woman is the possession of the man. In the first book of the Old Testament, it is stated: “In sorrow you shall bear children, you shall serve your husband, and he shall rule over you.” Something of this is also present in the Gretchen ideal, and to that extent, it is un-Germanic. However, let us not think above all that it once possessed general validity, however characteristic it may have been of certain circles and times. Alongside this, another ideal always existed, and we find significant female figures throughout our Germanic history."

"In the Vormingsbladen, we have written more than once about women, about the contradiction that exists between their place in a Germanic community and Germanic marriage, and the place they occupy, for example, in the Semitic world. The latter concerns us directly, because through Christianity, Semitic influences became active in the Germanic lands and continue to do so. We have, however, partially undone these influences. Views once held by the Church—such as those found, for example, in the handbook for the Keunissenprocessen—have become impossible for us. And yet, something remains; there is still doubt as to whether women do not actually stand in second place. Much worse in recent times is the undermining of our own community and healthy sexual life, which originated from Judaism within our own midst. As a result, relations have become highly clouded. While at one time women were "liberated," on the other hand, they were blindly deprived of the truth. Developments that could essentially have been healthy and fruitful were ruined, and it seemed as if the instinctive knowledge of the right path—something which woman always possessed more strongly than man—was so overgrown that it could not break through. "National Socialism is a worldview," says the Führer, and he has also said: "At all times—worldviews have determined not only the essence of politics, but also the form of cultural life." Thus, politics and culture are closely intertwined, and if we wish to be "political soldiers," it is primarily for the sake of culture, and not for the sake of politics in the narrower sense. The place of women in society and in marriage is one of the most important factors in cultural life and will remain so, as there is a far-reaching influence on the place women occupy in society and cultural life. Politics can exert both a restraining and a fertilizing influence on this. It is in this sense that we must understand the words of the Führer, which we advocate placing in this issue. What has gone wrong over decades cannot be straightened out in a few years. We will not be able to simply restore the degeneration of recent times. Even what has stood under Semitic influence for 1,000 years (through Christianity) cannot simply find its way back to its own nature and adapt to new times, creating new forms. Therefore, a new, living morality will only be able to emerge slowly; but when, like the Germanic morality, the place of women has perhaps become "a completely different one" after half a century, then a new, living morality will simultaneously come into fruition."

Perhaps one of the most important contrasts that separates National Socialism from Christianity is its proclivity toward a subjective, ancestral morality; the return to the prismatic view of ethics and moral truth, as opposed to the universal pacifistic morality of Christian theology, which posits that the revelation of the god of Israel is the final, ultimate law.
That being said, National Socialism isn't exactly "relativistic" in the modern sense, since moral relativism is built on the engine of individualism and democracy. National Socialism is built on the premise that your morality accords with your greater racial interests; whatever is good for your tribe, your people, is good for you. Whatever mythos and ethos is secondarily attached to your race is far higher in noble essence than any chase for so-called objective truth.
Even in secular settings, one can very clearly see the residue of Christian universalism when observing someone in the pursuit for universal truth or morality—they become estranged from the Volk, transforming into wandering jews, chasing after Yahweh in another idealistic dress. But as soon as one comes into contact with the idea that all that is true is what is local—race, family, and the perspective, they always either fall into the ether of chaos or they just accept it. That's what makes a diehard National Socialist: the guts to admit the hard racially prismatic reality.
In conclusion, the essence of our morality is tribal survival and thrival; good is not what makes one happy in the moment but something that fulfills a greater racial purpose that transcends your lifetime and individual interests; a life-affirming, this-worldly ascetism that sees in the Volk the highest, most relevant force of your time alive. Whatever is bad for your race is bad for you. Let us return to this racially prismatic reality! | 633 | 17 | 0 | 20 | Loading... | |

"The SS is meant to be the shock troops of National Socialism. It can only be that if it forms a close-knit community.
1) All SS men must be intellectually and spiritually permeated by the one worldview of National Socialism. As a racial worldview, it is the guardian of the heritage of our ancestors. Therefore, the SS must consciously continue old customs, such as the solstice, or revive them in a new form.
2) Community requires shared, powerful experiences. The solstice celebrations are intended to be such an experience for the SS men. The blazing bonfire under the night sky creates the conditions for a quiet hour of reflection and remembrance of the dead and Germans abroad."
"The divine power of the sun had awakened new life, which was moving towards its ripening fulfillment. The Germanic farmers' joyful greeting at the solstice was directed to the sun, the giver of all life force. This fire was not a "sacrifice," not lit to appease the forces of Nature, not to protect people, animals, and fields from harm through "fire magic." No, this solar fire was an expression of the experience of the divine in the universe, in and around us. The custom of burning the solar fire was once a deeply religious act of our ancestors. The fire was considered by them to be the "image of the sun" (Edda) and thus became a symbol of the divine power active in the sun. And the fire greeting of the Germanic farmers was a sincere, not humble, greeting to their "faithful friend," the deity. These aspects of the Germanic solstice have been preserved in the customs of the German farmer to this day. Generally, we find the solstice fire more frequently than the winter solstice fire. But in many regions it is called "St. John's Fire," because the Church transferred the birthday of the biblical John to this ancient heathen holiday, which could not be eradicated, thus maintaining its solstice traditions in the same way it transferred Christmas, the birth of Jesus, to the day of Yule."

"When we celebrate the Summer Solstice together here, we also wish to consider what this means to us. For we do not engage in sport for sport's sake alone, and we do not gather for this brief ceremony merely to hear a few fine words; rather, all of this has a deeper meaning for us, and the one is closely connected to the other. [...] It belongs to this worldview that we do not despise the body and do not unilaterally glorify the spirit. For us, body and spirit are not two things that stand separate and side by side, but we know that a healthy spirit requires a healthy body to function fully, and we also know that Bolshevism cannot be overcome by prayer, but only by men who are not only strong of will, but also strong of body. That is why the SS stands alongside sport. Why these martial arts games specifically today? It is an ancient custom among the Nordic race, throughout the centuries, to hold competitions and martial arts games at all ceremonies. Why? Because the people of this race take pleasure in the healthy and powerful body. For they have not despised the body, as the Semitic peoples and those who were set by the Semites did, but they saw in the healthy, well-formed, and noble man a kinship with the divine. [...] We know that all these conceptions among our ancestors are closely connected with the course of the sun and the eternal alternation of dying and being born. Therefore, they solemnly celebrated the high holidays of the year: the rebirth of the sun at midwinter and the day of the sun's highest position at midsummer. The same worldview lives within us, too; we too place action above all else; we too hold the hero in the highest esteem; and we too stand within this order of creation with the eternal alternation of birth and death. We too gather again on the high holidays of the year, light candles at Midwinter, and hold games at the Summer Solstice. And we know ourselves thereby connected to our distant ancestors. When we close the circle here, we know that the blood of a Nordic race flows through us; the blood of our furthest ancestors and the blood of our furthest descendants, provided we keep this blood pure and propagate it and defend it against the foreign powers surrounding it. We feel strong because the spirit of our forefathers lives within us and has been awakened. Awakened in the greatest need, now that our race stands before the great decision of standing firm or perishing. "

"The solstice is a reflection on the great rhythm of Nature, which, in the cycle of the year as in human life, repeatedly fulfills the eternal law of death and rebirth, creating day from night and night from day, linking life and death and death and life in an endless chain, and thus serving the mysterious purpose of creation. The solstice—this is the quiet hour of introspection, in which one feels one's connection to the great cycle of eternal Nature."
"This is the secret of blood and race: millennia-old experiences flow within them, awakening new experiences and sharpening the inner sense for all the thousand sources from which the life and senses of our ancestors still speak to us today. That is why we once stood as young wanderers around the sun's fire, and why today Adolf Hitler's Hitler Youth light the bonfires on the mountaintops, which are symbols for us of the elevation of life, which blood and destiny have set before us as a task. This primal memory is the secret of the magic of those bright nights when the fading sunset and the glow of dawn merged: when the place of rising draws so close to that of setting that the summer sun's path appears like a high, festive gate, arched over the summer earth by the raised arms of the sun-hero. Among the images that originate from this primal experience, we still understand today the original and eternal meaning: the marriage of the creative power of the sun with the maternal forces of the earth, and, fatefully placed between the two, the consecration of the human community, which is inextricably linked by blood, spirit, and destiny."
"Furthermore, the SS performed the so-called SS Sun Play at the summer solstice celebration. In it, an attempt was made to give visible expression to our newfound faith and our confession of faith in the sun through dance. At all times when a faith is truly "believed" again, this manifests itself in the endeavor to unfold the spiritual content of the faith into life, that is, to "live" the faith, and beyond that, to find forms of community that ultimately culminate in the union of all the arts, in dances, in consecration and celebratory plays, and in which the entire believing community participates in some way. "
"This is the highest religion: to conquer or die for justice and truth. This is the highest religion: to love one's fatherland more than fathers and mothers, wives and children. This is the highest religion: to leave one's grandchildren an honest name, a free land, a proud spirit. This is the highest religion: to preserve with one's dearest blood what was won with one's dearest blood."

In an Official SS memorandum from the SS-Junkerschule Braunschweig, the training commander emphasized that ideological training within the SS was of dire importance, especially spiritually breaking free from the church:
"Besides this educational influence on the people, it is necessary to eliminate negative influences as far as possible. This primarily concerns the influence of foreign religions on the German people, who are thereby inwardly drawn away from the goals of the Reich. The German worldview must be given a decisive breakthrough. In addition to liberation from the spiritual shackles of the Church, opportunities must be created that are capable of replacing the necessary external activities that were previously carried out by the Church. These activities mostly still take place in the Church only because nothing has been put in their place. Even if the SS and other Party organizations celebrate in a manner deemed appropriate for the German people, these opportunities are not available to the average German citizen. The fact that they are demanded by wider circles is proven by the lively demand for such celebrations within the SS. Since a large portion of churchgoers only remain members because such celebrations are held within the church, it would likely be possible to significantly weaken the church if these celebrations were permitted by the Reich or party authorities in the National Socialist sense."

"If possible, at the end of training, the SS should give a statement on the church issue to recruits from the Reich. The recruit must understand the origins of the SS's hostility towards the church. Tasteless and tactless denigration of the church (pulpit comedians, etc.) must be avoided. However, the uncompromising and divisive contrast between the concept of the self as the pursuit of individual salvation within the church and the totalitarian claim of the National Socialist people's community must be emphasized with utmost clarity. Furthermore, the destruction of human harmony through a one-sided focus on the spiritual realm, in contrast to the National Socialist understanding of the holistic nature of humanity (body, soul, and spirit), as taught and proven by National Socialism, must be pointed out. The goal of ideological education is, in any case, to familiarize the recruit with the foundations that will encompass and determine his life, to inspire him according to his intellectual dispositions, and to impart a National Socialist-oriented worldview."

The Anti-Völkisch Character of Christianity
Despite all attempts of reconciling the religion of Jesus with National Socialism, Christianity continues to remain an international religion tied to Judean soil. From the pursuit of a universal "objective" truth down to the very nature of baptism itself, this faith has absolutely nothing in common with socialism for the Volk.
The social question is already solved without Jesus; through Hitler, who embodied the glue of the German people - holding together the most vital components, classes, and properties of the nation. Love for National Socialists is anchored to race, in Christianity it's the opposite. When love, as a moral category, fails to attach itself to one's soil and blood, a universalist dilemma emerges, causing a divided impulse that puts the man on the spot - whether to love humanity or love his people - an impulse so conflicting that entire wars have been fought over it.
When all are branded as one, when all distinction and rank are liquidated, the natural differentiation of the world is ridden, in favor of a god who looks only at the inner attempts to overcome racial instincts and drives. That isn't splendid, that's a crime against Holy Nature, who punishes all those who violate her commands, as Hitler said in his Mein Kampf. It's an error to assume that races can be coequal spiritually and unequal physically, as anyone who isn't naive knows that the spiritual realm is regarded as superior in both denominations - meaning that a Christian lies right to your face when he suggests that the temporal material world has significance in his faith.
Additionally, National Socialism sees no difference in the body or soul, nor in the material or spirit. All exist in one uniform continuity. The material world of now is the spiritual world of forever, and while according to many myths it may have alternate dimensions, it certainly cannot be devalued by quasi-Platonic faiths that believe our world is merely a product of Satan or the demiurge. We live in the spirit world, and Nature does her holy work right in front of our faces everyday. To deny that would be blasphemy against the Universe. | 459 | 10 | 0 | 19 | Loading... | |

"When we ask ourselves what binds us together as a community, it is our worldview. A worldview is not easily put into words, at least not the worldview of our race, which cannot be confined within doctrines and dogmas. And yet we know what we mean; there is an unspoken experience of this time by which we are drawn to one another. Outwardly, however, we wish to form a very close-knit community, with a very specific goal and organization. For we are by virtue of our worldview also “political soldiers.” Therefore, without exception, we are subject to SS discipline. [...] Foreign cultural influences from the South have alienated us from ourselves. What, for example, is the relationship between man and woman? Must the woman be submissive to the man? To answer this, men and women of good race must consult within themselves, listen to “the voice of the blood,” study how our distant ancestors, who had been less subject to foreign influences, stood in relation to this, in order to arrive at a clear and distinct insight. And in doing so, they do not listen to any authority in the world whatsoever that is not of our race, nor do they allow themselves to be influenced by Genesis 3:16 of the Old Testament. That is what we understand by listening to the voice of the blood, i.e., the inherited disposition innate within us, which is bound to race. The core of our worldview is racial consciousness. Racial consciousness entails a rejection of all those Semitic influences in all branches of our cultural life, of our thinking and feeling, of science, art, and religion. It also entails a sharply defensive attitude against all universalism. For universalism, in whatever form, assumes that there are values that could have the same validity for all humanity, whereas we know that everything is bound to race, colored by race."

"Trust, in what, in whom?
[...] When we view it in this way, religion no longer occupies a separate category, but we realize that all truly creative Nordic natures (in whatever field) must possess religion. For they create out of strength and trust; not out of a sense of dependence, but out of the awareness of their freedom within bondage. [...] That is the defining characteristic of Nordic religion, that this trust is more: “a state of mind” than a dogmatic faith. It is a trust in the sacred Order in which we stand and of which we can be co-builders. It is, when we seek a personal God behind that Order, our trust in God; and this is what makes this Nordic trust so remarkable to others, that at times it is a vague, impersonal trust, so unequivocal, and at other times it is condensed into trust in God. That is why their motto will not be: man yields, God disposes, but rather: help yourself, and God will help you. Fundamentally, there is an opposing state of mind in those two sayings. The first reflects the attitude of man who feels small, insignificant, and dependent. The second is the attitude of man who knows himself to be a co-builder of the sacred Order, not in unworthy overestimation of himself, but permeated by his bondage and his freedom. It is this attitude that Hitler evokes in Germanism and has reawakened: the age-old trust in God."

"Holy is our Motherhood, holy is our Race; holy, bringing salvation and harboring salvation. Everything that is holy comes to us from our race and not from a foreign land. What is profane to us? Nothing. Everything can be holy and everything can be profane. Everything can be placed at the service of the salvation of our race and everything can be desecrated by banality. The people are holy to us and what serves the people, but no external ceremonies can give us a profane person anything holy, and a priest is no holier to us than a Germanic hero who knew of the salvation in People and Race. Our ancestors, not yet Christianized, knew no priestly caste and saw something holy in every great personality, but especially when it was a woman. This was already known to Tacitus. Such is our nature. And now two stories that were sent to us, which had nothing to do with each other and yet fit together so wonderfully well — in their contrast. The one plays in a world where the sacred and the profane are pitted against each other. The other in a world where this dividing line is not recognized."

An article from the SS Vormingsbladen on "The race issue and the churches", The SS emphasized they will never compromise the doctrine of race for church dogma which contradicts it:
"A question frequently asked of us is this: can the SS’s views on race be reconciled with Christian doctrine? Our answer may be this: We experience race as a given reality, which we do not doubt and which we do not reason away. We need not question what science knows regarding human descent, heredity, and racial formation, and which it partly proves empirically. To what extent this experience and knowledge conflict with the dogmas and doctrines of the churches is not of primary importance to us. When our Germanic science discovered (what the Greeks knew before us!) that the earth was round and revolved around the sun, this scientific insight was also incompatible with what the church taught. The church took a long time to adapt, did so reluctantly, but nowadays it no longer causes "conflicts of conscience," and no people are burned for it, nor are books placed on the Index. It will be the same with the race question. We have no need to compromise, and we have absolutely no intention of doing so!"
