Racism is completely incompatible with Catholicism. Yet, it’s existence can be found all throughout the history of the Catholic Church. Within the last couple of years, white supremacists within the Church have been causing some problems. I was telling my friend over at the website https://introiboadaltaredei2.blogspot.com/2020/ about how I was going to write an article on the subject. He informed me that he was already working on one and he graciously granted me permission to publish it.
Below is Introibo’s excellent article…
It was the First Saturday Mass in January at the Ave Maria Chapel, twenty-four years ago. Father DePauw, my spiritual father who led me to the One True Church, would always have the first pews reserved for the children so he could quiz them on their monthly catechism lessons. It was also the Feast of the Epiphany. There was a beautiful and large manger outside the Chapel. Inside all could see an equally beautiful (yet decidedly smaller) one, on the Epistle side of the altar, just outside the Sanctuary. After his quiz, Father would deliver an approximately 10 minute sermon aimed at teaching the kids.
From the pulpit Father pointed to the indoor manger. “Do you see the Three Wise Men? They were blessed to be among the very first to see the Infant Savior. I want you to notice that one of the three has decidedly black skin, and the others have white skin. In life, you will meet some people with white skin who will tell you to hate people with black skin. You will also meet people with black skin who will tell you to hate people with white skin. These people who hate other people with different skin color would like everyone to live apart according to their color, and they also want you to believe that one skin color is better than others. This is stupid and not Catholic. Jesus Christ did not die on Good Friday for the black race, the white race, or the yellow race. He only died for one race–the human race to which all skin colors belong.” (Written from my memory as best I remember. Father used that same sermon for the children virtually every First Saturday in January).
There is a disturbing trend among Millennials to take extreme positions. As a Generation Xer, I believe it is the effect of growing up in a world where all remaining vestiges of Catholicism were eliminated in the Great Apostasy by the Vatican II sect. If you look at the supporters of Communist Senator Bernie Sanders, there are overwhelming numbers of 23-38 year olds. There is a tendency among this generation to take extreme right-wing positions as well, such as Fascism/Neo-Nazism. Add to the mix the fact that four in ten millennials now say they are religiously unaffiliated, according to the Pew Research Center; therefore large numbers of young people are left without any thought of God and remain feeling empty. The extreme positions give the definitive answers regarding right and wrong/good and bad that the Church used to give before Vatican II created a new sect falsely claiming the title “Roman Catholic Church.” (See https://www.pewforum.org/2019/10/17/in-u-s-decline-of-christianity-continues-at-rapid-pace/).
As a result of these sad circumstances, a new racism is being touted among some young people calling themselves “Traditionalist.” Many of them are attracted to the fact that sedevacantism “sounds extreme” and are not really searching for the Truth. Their knowledge of the Faith is very superficial. Adding fuel to the fire, the media and political climate cause distrust among races. The liberals are making non-whites “victims” and want job quotas (think Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez ), while conservatives are claiming racial superiority in the form of “White Nationalism.” Both are causing a new and real hatred based on skin color. Some of these racists also think they can be Traditionalists simultaneously without contradiction in their beliefs. This post will explore Church teaching on racism, and the correct type of nationalism we need today.
Essential Unity of Humanity
In his first encyclical, Ad Beatissimi Apostolorum (1914), Pope Benedict XV declares that the relations between people should be one of brothers and sisters, i.e., of those who are one in nature because they are of the same family created by God. Discussing the ravages of the First World War (1914-1918), His Holiness writes, “Who would imagine as we see them thus filled with hatred of one another, that they are all of one common stock, all of the same nature, all members of the same human family?” (para. #3; Emphasis mine).
In Mortalium Animos (1928), Pope Pius XI teaches, “… it is easily understood, and the more so because none now dispute the unity of the human race, why many desire that the various nations, inspired by this universal kinship, should daily be more closely united one to another.” (para. #1; Emphasis mine). The same holy pontiff ordered the Sacred Congregation for Seminaries and Universities to compose a letter refuting and condemning racism and Nazi “Aryan race” ideology in order to prevent it from infecting Catholic educational institutions. The result was a privately circulated document entitled Instruction Concerning Racism, Its Doctrinal Errors and the Measures to be Employed Against Their Spread (hereinafter “Instruction”). The Instruction was dated April 13, 1938 and a complete English translation was made by canonist Bouscaren in the Canon Law Digest-Supplement 1941 (pgs. 165-167). The Congregation’s Instruction condemns no less than eight (8) propositions as being both “pernicious” and “absurd:”
I. The human races, by their natural and immutable characters, are so different from each other that, the humblest of them is further from the highest race than of the highest animal species.
II. We must by all means, preserve and cultivate strong race and purity of blood, so that all which leads to this result is therefore honest and permitted.
III. It is blood, seat of the characteristics of the race, that all the intellectual and moral qualities of man derive as their main source.
IV. The basic purpose of education is to develop the characters of the race and inflame the minds of a burning love of their own race as the supreme good.
V. Religion is subject to the law of race and must be adapted to it.
VI. The first source and the supreme rule of law and order is racial instinct.
VII. There exists only the Cosmos or living universe; all things, including humans, are only various forms growing over the ages of universal life.
VIII. Each man exists only by the State and for the State. All that he rightly possesses derives exclusively from a concession to the State.
It shouldn’t be too hard to understand that racism is inexorably linked to the damnable doctrine of Social Darwinism. It is taken from the false teaching of Charles Darwin (d. 1882) regarding evolution. The term “evolution” is used to refer to the general theory that all life on earth has evolved from non-living matter and progressed to more complex forms with time; humans are not special in any way–both body and soul (or “consciousness”)– comes from brute matter. This stands condemned by the Church.
As the late leading evolutionist George Gaylord Simpson observed:
“In the world of Darwin, man has no special status other than his definition as a distinct species of animal. He is in the fullest sense a part of nature and not apart from it. He is akin, not figuratively, but literally, to every living thing, be it an amoeba, a tapeworm, a seaweed, an oak tree, or a monkey—even though the degrees of relationship are different and we may feel less empathy for forty-second cousins like the tapeworm than for, comparatively speaking, brothers like the monkeys….” (See George Gaylord Simpson, “The World into Which Darwin Led Us,” Science, Vol. 131 (1960), p. 970).
As a consequence of this error, when Darwinism is applied to society (“Social” aspect), you will get one of two malevolent results:
(a) All higher forms of life are to be considered equal. Hence, there was a case here in New York, where a lawyer argued to give legal rights (and constitutional protections) to chimpanzees.
(See https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/do-apes-deserve-personhood-rights-lawyer-heads-n-y-supreme-n731431).
While we must be good stewards of all God has given us, and not abuse the animals God gave to Earth, it is insanity to assert (as some “animal rights activists” have done) that eating meat is “murder.” According to the “People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals” (PETA), “We are taught the Golden Rule as young children, and all major religions teach principles of nonviolence and kindness. The Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. said, “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.” Ethical treatment—the Golden Rule—must be extended to all living beings: reptiles, mammals, fish, insects, birds, amphibians, and crustaceans.” To include animals in the Golden Rule, which was given to humans by Christ, is blasphemous.(See https://www.peta.org/features/what-peta-really-stands-for/).
(b) As a consequence of the Darwinian principle of the “survival of the fittest,” the superior have the right to dominate the inferior. Humans are animals and each race is different, insofar as it is alleged that certain races are inherently superior to others (Hitler’s “Master Race”). According to the National Socialist Movement’s (Neo-Nazi) website:
National Socialism is a worldview that is based upon the application of Natural Law to the individual, the family, the economy, and the nation. Natural Law is the organic expression of Truth found within all of nature. The nation within National Socialism is made up of a people who share the same language, heritage, culture, customs, and blood. (This is a perverted definition of “Natural Law” and there is no mention of God or religion; Emphasis mine) We seek to preserve and advance our culture, traditions, and our genetic inheritance based upon the principles of love and duty for our Faith, Family, and Folk. This can be summed up in the famous Fourteen Words “We must secure the existence of our people and a future for White children.”( See https://www.nsm88.org/; Emphasis mine)
You also can’t get more blunt than “King Shamir Shabazz” the leader of the New Black Panther Party’s Philadelphia chapter, who said in a National Geographic documentary (January 2009), “I hate white people. All of them.” The Panthers believe that the “superior race” is “Afro-centric.”
As Pope Pius XI taught in his 1937 encyclical Mit Brennender Sorge, “Whoever exalts race, or the people, or the State, or a particular form of State, or the depositories of power, or any other fundamental value of the human community – however necessary and honorable be their function in worldly things – whoever raises these notions above their standard value and divinizes them to an idolatrous level, distorts and perverts an order of the world planned and created by God; he is far from the true faith in God and from the concept of life which that faith upholds.” (para. #8).
The Teachings of the Popes
1. In the absence of a restraining principle by which individual passions are controlled, moral unity of a nation becomes impossible.
Pope Pius XI, Divini Redemptoris, para. # 21: Nor can it be said that these atrocities are a transitory phenomenon, the usual accompaniment of all great revolutions, the isolated excesses common to every war. No, they are the natural fruit of a system which lacks all inner restraint. Some restraint is necessary for man considered either as an individual or in society. Even the barbaric peoples had this inner check in the natural law written by God in the heart of every man. And where this natural law was held in higher esteem, ancient nations rose to a grandeur that still fascinates – more than it should – certain superficial students of human history. But tear the very idea of God from the hearts of men, and they are necessarily urged by their passions to the most atrocious barbarity. (Emphasis mine)
2. People can choose the form of government they want, as long as it is not opposed to the Church and Her teachings.
Pope St. Pius X: Notre Charge Apostolique, In the Encyclical on political government which We have already quoted, they could have read this: ‘Justice being preserved, it is not forbidden to the people to choose for themselves the form of government which best corresponds with their character or with the institutions and customs handed down by their forefathers.’ (Emphasis mine)
3. The State has an obligation to be a Catholic State, and the Church will bring blessings upon the people.
Pope Leo XIII: Immortale Dei: As a consequence, the State, constituted as it is, is clearly bound to act up to the manifold and weighty duties linking it to God, by the public profession of religion…Now, it cannot be difficult to find out which is the true religion, if only it be sought with an earnest and unbiased mind; for proofs are abundant and striking. We have, for example, the fulfillment of prophecies, miracles in great numbers, the rapid spread of the faith in the midst of enemies and in face of overwhelming obstacles, the witness of the martyrs, and the like. From all these it is evident that the only true religion is the one established by Jesus Christ Himself, and which He committed to His Church to protect and to propagate…the abundant benefits with which the Christian religion, of its very nature, endows even the mortal life of man are acquired for the community and civil society. And this to such an extent that it may be said in sober truth: “The condition of the commonwealth depends on the religion with which God is worshiped; and between one and the other there exists an intimate and abiding connection.” (para. #6, 7, 19; Emphasis mine).
4. Errors Concerning The One True Church and the State
Pope Pius IX, Syllabus of Errors, CONDEMNED PROPOSITIONS:
Father DePauw’s Chapel is approximately 30% non-white, and always was that way. It showed me the true “universal” (i.e., “Catholic”) Nature of the Church. I remember one Sunday sitting between an Hispanic man and a Haitian woman. Neither spoke English other than a few simple phrases. Yet here we were at the same Mass. I looked over and saw one hand Missal was in French and English and the other in Spanish and English. Christ came to all three of us in Holy Communion that day regardless of race, language, or other worldly consideration.
God created one race, the human race. While we are composed of different skin colors, it should neither unite us like the Nazis or divide us like so-called “separatists.” Let the One True Church unite us all in He Who is Truth Itself. “There is neither Jew nor Greek: there is neither bond nor free: there is neither male nor female. For you are all one in Christ Jesus.” (Galatians 3:28).
Well obviously the Church is for people of all races, but I think this article would need expansion to address different problems of racial conflict today.
What exactly is “racism” defined as? Does it exclude for instance ethnic and racial groups separating at times because members of their particular shared make-up are better able to help each other?
I don’t know much of the history of Catholic parishes, but I recall in the past there were a lot of different separate ethnic churches, and this was even just among “white” people: one church had a majority of Polish people, another Germans, another Irish, another Italian, etc. Is there something wrong with this, or having an exclusive ethnic identity?
A clear harm of racism is hatred of people for being of a race, or of wanting to do bad things to them like commit acts of violence.
I believe SSPX +Williamson expressed an opinion that inter-racial marriage was against common sense: is this a wrong or permissible opinion or desire? I think studies show that most people prefer marrying someone of their own race – I would not think this to be unacceptable “racism”, but certainly I would not consider an inter-racial marriage of a man and woman to be invalid or something like that (I did have a close white male friend who I believe married a black female, who were both trying to be good Vatican 2 Catholics). The Church ordinarily prohibits the “mixed marriage” of Catholic and non-Catholic rather than race.
Here’s +Williamson:
Williamson then discourages interracial and inter-class marriage:
“Interrracial marriage is not common sense. It’s not a sin, it’s not an offense against god, necessarily, but it may often be an offense against common sense. Because there is too much difference between people of different races for their marriage to be able to last. You’re going to say that many interracial marriages do last. Fine. Undoubtedly. But it it is still not a good idea. It’s less bad than a Catholic marrying a non-Catholic, but it’s pretty deep, the differences between the races are pretty serious. Blacks should normally marry blacks, whites should normally marry whites. Chinese should marry Chinese…. If you’re upper class in society you should marry upper class, if you’re lower class you should marry lower class. It’s common sense.”
I think there is some sense in what he says; people of different races may have different strengths or characteristics or be part of a culture and statistically subject to certain things of their culture (this would also be true of nationalities and communities, which can correlate with race sometimes, and sometimes not). And there is a “common sense” tendency to marry within one’s race or culture or socioeconomic status as it may allow you to have a distinct identity and make use of all the strengths that are unique to you, but of course he admits there may be exceptions to this “common sense” rule (or do you think this is not common sense?).
Lastly, I think some of the problems of racism can go away through allowing peaceful cooperation over time. I have benefited from works by different races, and so I am grateful to them and want to work with them and see their betterment. But also at times it seems that naturally certain groups form that are exclusive of one race, and they may want to maintain it that way (sometimes there are black, Asian, etc. student unions for example – are these “racist”?).
People generally flock with those they feel most comfortable or prefer. However, racism is the hatred, prejudice, discrimination, and/or antagonism directed towards those of a different race because of their race. It is not love of neighbor.
Bishop Williamson telling people what is common sense is laughable. This coming from a man that thinks formal schism is the answer against sedevacantism. He doesn’t know what common sense is.
I’ve been married to a black woman for over 25 years. I’ve even been threatened by the KKK. Racism is contrary to God’s Divine Law.
While the content on this website is good, your understanding of National Socialism and it’s theory on Race is horrible. I don’t mean to say this in a hostile manner, I myself once found myself in your position. I boiled down NS as: “We’re better than you so therefore we have the right to conquer your lands, steal your property and wipe your race out”. In a way, from what I have read on your response to the other comment, it seems you have a personal grudge against NS due to you being married to a black woman. I’m not going to tell you to divorce her or anything of the sort, but at the same time I think it’s unfair to condemn those who do not share your views on this issue as incompatible with the Catholic Faith, especially since many members of the NSDAP were Catholics and never excommunicated by the Church. So let me begin to answer you article from a National Socialistic prespective which I hold:
1) Difference between “Racism” and NS Racial Theory.
Racism is defined, by yourself I might add, in the following manner:
“Racism is the hatred, prejudice, discrimination, and/or antagonism directed towards those of a different race because of their race.”
NS is in disagreement with this sort of behaviour as I will prove. The modern definition of Racism applied to the NS Movement is something that has been going on for years. Many lies have been uttered about this and so it is time to bury them once and for all. Firstly let’s look at Leon Degrelle, SS Standartenführer, had to say about NS Racial Theory:
“”German racialism meant re-discovering the creative values of their own race, re-discovering their culture. It was a search for excellence, a noble ideal. National Socialist racialism was not against the other races, it was for its own race. It aimed at defending and improving its race, and wished that all other races did the same for themselves… National Socialist racialism was loyal to the German race and totally respected all other races.”
– The Story of the Waffen SS (Lecture given in 1982). Reprinted in The Journal of Historical Review, vol. 3, no. 4, pp. 441-468.
This also addresses your points on the Human Race. No one is denying that the Human Race is one but there are subcategories to it. The same way no one denies that a German Sheppard and a Bulldog are different in their behaviour, despite both being dogs. It is always a wonder to me how Science stops when you come to Humans.
2) Race is not merely a melatonin level
This is a trend I notice in your article. You boil down race to simply that, skin colour. When it isn’t. Race is connected to Social Cohesion as proved by Robert Putnam that Multiracial societies have less social cohesion than monoethnic ones. Race is also connected to IQ, of which 0.8/1 is genetic inheritence as science has proved. Blacks have an average IQ of 80, Latinos 90, Whites 100 and Asians 105. See how I don’t mind admitting that another race is more intelligent than me? National Socialists have a preference for their own race and the desire to preserve it´s purity but not once does it claim to have blind hatred of another. To read more on this issue I direct you to the following link tha discusses all the elements connected to Race:
https://www.amren.com/news/2020/01/the-intelligent-persons-guide-to-race-racial-differences/
3) The difference between Neo-Nazi and National Socialist
Nearly every NS I know disassociates themselves from such movements like Vanguard America and the KKK, overflown with the worse types of idiots. In fact, I’ve often seen NS and Neo-Nazis argue.The National Socialists had no problem allowing people of other races to fight in the SS and Wehrmacht. Neo-Nazis will beat up a 14 year old black kid, a National Socialist will defend him. National Socialism is built on the idea that every race has it’s own domain and borders set up by God. We believe in being friends with other races, but also believe free movement between the two will lead to chaos due to our differences given to us by God. Which brings me to my next point.
4) Neo-Nazis are often Pagans, while NS are Christians.
It is true that certain Reich hierarchy was pagan, however many such as Hitler himself werent. I provide you with the following quotes:
In boundless love, as a Christian and a human being, I read through the passage that tells us how the Lord arose at last in His might and seized the scourge to drive out of the Temple the brood of vipers and adders. How terrific was His fight against the Jewish poison. Today, after two thousand years, with deepest emotion I realize more profoundly than ever before the fact that it was for this that He had to shed His blood upon the Cross.
—Adolf Hitler
And now Staatspräsident Bolz says that Christianity and the Catholic faith are threatened by us. And to that charge I can answer: In the first place it is Christians and not international atheists who now stand at the head of Germany. I do not merely talk of Christianity, no, I also profess that I will never ally myself with the parties which destroy Christianity. If many wish today to take threatened Christianity under their protection, where, I would ask, was Christianity for them in these fourteen years when they went arm in arm with atheism? No, never and at no time was greater internal damage done to Christianity than in these fourteen years when a party, theoretically Christian, sat with those who denied God in one and the same Government.
— Speech delivered at Stuttgart 15 February 1933; from Norman H. Baynes, ed. (1969). The Speeches of Adolf Hitler: April 1922-August 1939. 1. New York: Howard Fertig. p. 240.
I could provide a plethora of different quotes but I view that as sufficient. The point I’m trying to make is that Hitler viewed the differences of Race not solely in the materialistic constrictions of blood, but as something that God gave to us. God was an important aspect of the original NS movement, sadly the same cannot be sad with modern movements.
Lastly, the Church once viewed Geocentrism as absurd. Yet it did not any longer at the time of Pope Pius XII. The church once viewed Evolution as absurd, but by the time of Pope Pius XII it didn’t. The above mentioned so called 8 errors are not dogmatically binding and some are an outright misunderstanding of NS doctrine. 5 to 8 are forgetting that the NS believed that the supreme source of all this was God himself and the rest are also wrong since Hitler also said that schools must also have a religious instruction.
Your understanding of NS is condemned. The understanding of NS by (true) NS’s is not. I also think you are clever enough to look up St. Augustines commentary on that passage wherein he states that Race is still a factor in our interactions.
God Bless and may the Holy See be restored.
I think you meant to say the Church once viewed heliocentrism as absurd rather than geocentrism. It seems that Pope Benedict XV thought heliocentrism was a possibility. As for evolution (macro), it seems that Pius XII is allowing the position to be held under certain circumstances. I still think macro-evolution is absurd.
As for the article, I didn’t write it. However, race is just race. There are differences between the races. Perhaps intelligence is associated, but I tend to think it’s not the race as much as the cultures, nutrition, etc. Who tests for IQ? I don’t necessarily trust the figures by Robert Putnam, although his results may be valid. Does his study imply that if you mix a black and white, you’ll get an average lower IQ than white alone and if you mix a white with an Asian, you get a higher than a white alone? Sounds pretty silly to me. Were the differences in the IQ’s come from people from different areas of the world, in the same city, etc.? What were the factors? Are we treat each other differently because of an average IQ? You can get all kinds of so-called scientific studies that completely contradict each other. There are other factors to consider, but it’s all irrelevant insofar as we are to treat one another, which is the point I’m concerned with.
Race is a factor in our interactions, but so are cultures. The mere fact that I’m from the South factors in my interactions with Northerners. I bet if Putnam did an IQ average with Northerners and Southerners, he’ll tell us we Southerners have a lower average IQ.
I appreciate your comment and thoughts.
In response to John…you reference Hitler…monsters get started being nice and saying nice things. That’s how they achieve position. Once Hitler said all his nice things and got power and control, his true identity came out…evil and hatred of God in the life he led and dictated on others. Even racist to the core!
National Socialism seems to say nice things that other want to hear. However, they demand attention and position themselves with control over others like dictating how racism is to work, according to them. You forget,,,all men are created equal in the eyes of God. Therefore, your understanding and educated control of how racism is to exist is wrong….RACISM SHOULD NOT EXIST IN THE EYES OF GOD IN THE FIRST PLACE.., and no socialist oversight of racism with a measure of control or expectation is in conformity with Divine Law.
By the way…you example Christians. They were not and are not Christians to begin with . I believe your NS movement shadows Hitler and with time will show its true colors.
On guard, you have provided nothing of substance. Your arguments don’t go beyond “muh nazis evil”. No one is disagreeing that on the religious plane Humanity was given a single religion, Catholicism. However, to deny the biological reality of race and the differences that stem from it is stupid and product of Cultural Marxist indoctrination.
The NS movement was Christian, it was outlined in the official NSDAP 25 points and anyone who has read Mein Kampf knows that Hitler was deeply religious in his intentions. I will provide a few more quotes, I’m sure you will ignore them but for the honest minded they will be beneficial.
“The Catholic Church should not deceive herself: if National Socialism does not succeed in defeating Bolshevism, then the church and Christianity in Europe too are finished. Bolshevism is the mortal enemy of the church as much as of fascism. …Man cannot exist without belief in God. The soldier who for three and four days lies under intense bombardment needs a religious prop.”
– Adolf Hitler in conversation with Cardinal Michael von Faulhaber of Bavaria, November 4, 1936
“Today Christians … stand at the head of [this country]… I pledge that I never will tie myself to parties who want to destroy Christianity .. We want to fill our culture again with the Christian spirit … We want to burn out all the recent immoral developments in literature, in the theater, and in the press – in short, we want to burn out the poison of immorality which has entered into our whole life and culture as a result of liberal excess during the past … (few) years.”
– Adolf Hitler, quoted in: The Speeches of Adolf Hitler, 1922-1939, Vol. 1 (London, Oxford University Press, 1942), pg. 871-872
“National Socialism is not a cult-movement– a movement for worship; it is exclusively a ‘volkic’ political doctrine based upon racial principles. In its purpose there is no mystic cult, only the care and leadership of a people defined by a common blood-relationship… We will not allow mystically- minded occult folk with a passion for exploring the secrets of the world beyond to steal into our Movement. Such folk are not National Socialists, but something else– in any case something which has nothing to do with us. At the head of our programme there stand no secret surmisings but clear-cut perception and straightforward profession of belief. But since we set as the central point of this perception and of this profession of belief the maintenance and hence the security for the future of a being formed by God, we thus serve the maintenance of a divine work and fulfill a divine will– not in the secret twilight of a new house of worship, but openly before the face of the Lord… Our worship is exclusively the cultivation of the natural, and for that reason, because natural, therefore God-willed. Our humility is the unconditional submission before the divine laws of existence so far as they are known to us men.”
-Adolf Hitler, in Nuremberg on 6 Sept.1938.
What is most damning for people like you is the fact that the Church NEVER excomunicated Hitler or any of his Catholic staff. You cannot excommunicate someone for freeing his country of the Jewish vermin it was overtaken by. He banned the worst sort of degeneracy, porn, immorality, transexualism and in turn you attack him on false ground.
Hitler was viciously anti-Catholic. He was automatically excommunicated by law. It’s well known that sexual deviancy weakens a nation. If he banned it, it was because he was aware of that fact. His Nazi Party killed many innocent people. Ever heard of Martyrs Village? How about the Martyrs of Nowogródek? Edith Stein or Maximilian Kolbe ring a bell? Approx. 1/3 of German priests were severely persecuted by Hitler. 400 German priests were sent to Dachau Concentration Camp. That’s just in Germany alone. Hitler’s goal was to rid Catholicism from Germany. He murdered or deported thousands of priests.
Yes, that is what I meant. It was late in Europe when I wrote the initial reply. The point of me pointing to those two examples is that just as the Church was initially wrong on Heliocentrism, they can also be wrong about Racial Science.
Robert Putnam never carried any study linked to IQ. His study was limited to the connection between Race and Social Cohesion. In fact, he himself didn’t like the results so he tried to explain them away. So obviously, he had no self interests in sharing those results.
Secondly, following the simple principle that IQ is of genetic inheritence we can rationally conclude that a mixed race child will have his average IQ affected. 80% of IQ is genetic inheritence, a meta analysis proved this. Obviously, I am not saying that EVERY black person has a lower IQ than a white person but when taking the average it is undeniable. Exceptions are exceptions, not rules. If you want information on intelligence difference outside the IQ test here you have 20 graphes proving that despite all the affermative action and government spending on the black population, their results have reamined the same:
https://www.amren.com/blog/2019/11/race-differences-in-intelligence-in-20-charts/
The question of wether enviroment affects IQ is dealt with in the first link I shared. But in case you didn’t read it: Yes, it does affect it but only to a certain limited extent which is much lesser than the effect of genetic inheritence. This is why Africans in Africa score a much lower average IQ than those in America, 65. If they had been brought up in America this probably would have varied around 15 additonal points. The following is written by Jarod Taylor:
“One of the most obvious physiological correlates of the black/white intelligence difference is the disparity in brain size. Blacks have, on average, about 100 cc less brain tissue, and brain size has a well-established correlation with intelligence. Within families, the larger-brained children tend to be the smartest, and rats that learn mazes quickly have larger brains than those that learn slowly.
The well-documented cultural poverty of Africa before contact with whites or Arabs is almost certainly due to low average intelligence. No sub-Saharan people had the wheel, a written language, mechanical devices, multi-story buildings, or a calendar. Their words for counting consisted of one, two, few, and many, though some tribes could count to seven by combining twos and ones.
At the same time, Australian aborigines score 119 — well above the white average of 100 — on a spatial memory test that requires them to study 20 objects for 30 seconds and memorize their locations. This ability is thought to have evolved in the Australian desert, where hunters must remember even the slightest geographic features, and aborigines have excellent reputations as guides and trackers. This ability is still found in aborigines who have lived in cities for several generations, which suggests it is a genetic trait. Aborigines have quite small brains, but with disproportionately large right hemispheres, which is the area that handles spatial memory.
Despite this unusual visual ability, the low intelligence of aborigines prevented significant cultural advance. Until contact with Europeans, they did not have agriculture, pottery or metal, did not store food, and kept no animals. The now-extinct Tasmanians are the only people known to have been unable to make fire. They could use it if they found it, but could not relight fires that burned out. Tasmanians had no tools with handles; their axes were unhafted rocks.”
Blacks may excell over White Europeans in other areas such as athletic performence and physical strength. No one denies this, but the moment you say that Whites are more intelligent that blacks expect a tsunami wave of maniacs that somehow conclude you want kill black people.
Yes, culture is also a factor in our interactions. I, and Englishman, do not interact with the same confidence with a Russian as I do with a German, due to our cultured both being Germanic in origin. However, a Russian and an Englishman have more in common with eachother than a white man to an aboriginal in africa. We must be friends with all, but each live in our own lands where we may flourish. Lastly I leave you with a quote from Oswald Mosley on Race:
“We will certainly attempt the education of the Indian masses, but not on Western lines. The mistake has been the imposition of western culture on oriental life. Indians should be taught a higher ambition than to be a pale imitation of the West. The best minds of India will be only too willing to co-operate in that conception. It is a tragedy that Indians with an older cultural
tradition than our own should merely seek to imitate our failures, such as Parliamentary institutions. Discontent arises from this inefficient imitation fostered by Western Parliamentarians and academic ideologues. Fascist teaches pride of race and racial culture. Under Fascism, Indian leaders will arise to carry forward their own traditions and culture within the framework of Empire and the modern world of science.”
God bless.
The Church never declared that it was wrong about geocentrism or evolution. It’s only permitting individuals to hold to contrary opinions under certain circumstances. That’s all.
As for the IQ question, did you notice that you’re arguing for the micro-evolutionary process that over time the lower IQ class can be raised? Hmmmm.
We are bound by the teachings of the Church. Pius XII taught in Summi Pontificatus, 1939:
35. The first of these pernicious errors, widespread today, is the forgetfulness of that law of human solidarity and charity which is dictated and imposed by our common origin and by the equality of rational nature in all men, to whatever people they belong, and by the redeeming Sacrifice offered by Jesus Christ on the Altar of the Cross to His Heavenly Father on behalf of sinful mankind.
36. In fact, the first page of the Scripture, with magnificent simplicity, tells us how God, as a culmination to His creative work, made man to His Own image and likeness (cf. Genesis i. 26, 27); and the same Scripture tells us that He enriched man with supernatural gifts and privileges, and destined him to an eternal and ineffable happiness. It shows us besides how other men took their origin from the first couple, and then goes on, in unsurpassed vividness of language, to recount their division into different groups and their dispersion to various parts of the world. Even when they abandoned their Creator, God did not cease to regard them as His children, who, according to His merciful plan, should one day be reunited once more in His friendship (cf. Genesis xii. 3).
Christ commands that we love our neighbor as ourselves. Is that what you’re advocating?
Introibo (author of the above article) sent me the following reply to your comments.
To the detestable “John”
Hitler was an apostate Catholic and a Neo-pagan. What he said to Card Faulhaber didn’t resonate with him, and with good reason:
According to Ronald Rychlak the Nazis called for Faulhaber to be killed in 1935 and in 1936 Nazi police seized and destroyed one of his sermons, and did the same two times in 1937. (See “World Fascism â€)
Faulhaber was a major contributor to the only Papal encyclical ever written in German (in the hopes of having a greater impact on the offenders), Mit brennender Sorge.
Hitler also wrote of “gods” and “goddesses” proving, if all of his religious utterances are to be believed literally, that he was a polytheist. The gods are referred to in Mein Kampf-“the manifestations of decay showed only that the gods had willed Austria’s destruction” [vol. I chapt. 3]-and there are references to goddesses as well: to the “Goddess of Suffering” [vol. I chapt. 2] and the “Goddess of Destiny” [vol. I chapt.5]. There is even a “goddess of eternal justice and inexorable retribution” which Hitler believed “caused Archduke Francis Ferdinand, the most mortal enemy of Austrian- Germanism, to fall by the bullets which he himself had helped to mold” [vol I chapt.1].
There is also a “Goddess of Peace and a God of War.” More significantly, there are numerous references to “Fate.” For those unfamiliar with world religion and philosophy, Fate is a non-Christian term referring not to the personal God of the Bible, but to an impersonal force of unknown character. (See Keysor, Hitler, the Holocaust and the Bible, pgs. 87 et. seq.). In keeping with paganism, there is also evidence that the high ranking Nazis were sodomites.
Here are some inconvenient facts about your hero Adolph Hitler as reported in “The Pink Swastika†by Scott Lively and Kevin Abrams (1995):
Although Hitler was probably not a homosexual or bisexual, he kept company with many sodomites who were his top Lieutenants. He was a coprophile, (a deviant aroused by human feces) and had relationships with at least four women, one of whom was his niece. Due to his perverted and twisted ways all four women involved with Hitler attempted suicide.
Why would Hitler found a Party made up of deviants? There are several reasons. First, he wanted people–pimps, murders, and homosexuals–who would be willing to go against traditional morality. Second, homosexuals fit in with Hitler’s occult beliefs. Pagan “priests” and “priestesses” were often homosexual. The modern pagan religion of Wicca embraces homosexuality and worships nature. The swastika itself comes from non-Christian, pagan religions. It was used at least 5,000 years before Adolf Hitler designed the Nazi flag. According to the Holocaust Encyclopedia, “The word swastika comes from the Sanskrit svastika, which means “good fortune†or “well-being.” The motif (a hooked cross) appears to have first been used in Neolithic Eurasia, perhaps representing the movement of the sun through the sky. To this day it is a sacred symbol in Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, and Odinism. It is a common sight on temples or houses in India or Indonesia. Swastikas also have an ancient history in Europe, appearing on artifacts from pre-Christian European cultures.” Remember the Bible says homosexuality is the result of “worshiping the creation rather than the Creator” (See Romans 1: 18-27). Third, many homosexuals had violent, even murderous inclinations (more on this later in this post).
Homosexuals may be divided into those who act effeminately (‘fems”) and those who disguise their unnatural vice under a veneer of being virile and manly (“butches”). The latter were the ones who wanted to revive the pederastic military cults of the pagan pre-Christian era. Their leaders included top Nazis Adolf Brand and Ernst Roehm. They despised the pacifist and effeminate homosexuals; and these were the ones whom were persecuted! Heterosexuals served the purpose of procreation, but the effeminate didn’t procreate or share their militaristic vision. Hence, they were seen as subhuman.
Yes, the Church has never officially condemned those who believe in Geocentrism. I wasn’t denying that, the point I was trying to make that is that theologians can err on matter pertaining to the scientific world that’s all.
Yes, I am fully aware. No National Socialist denies that over time IQ can positively or negativley change by the effects of evolution, however, the process is immensly long for western governments to devote themselves to such a task that would take hundreds of thousands of years. But let’s not lose sight of the authors original claim of boiling race down to a simple melatonin level. This is not true. It is also worth noting that National Socialism has many more arguments both scientific and philosophical in nature to oppose the mixing of race. Intelligence is among those examples. If you wish we can have a discussion on that but right now I need to answer the remainer of the response.
No one is denying what Pope Pius XII is saying. However our interpretations may differ. Is Pope Pius XII saying that everyone has the same capacity when it comes to Maths? Is he denying the existence of gifted people? Is he asserting that mentally challenged people have the same ability to understand concepts? Is he denying that psycopaths exist? I doubt it. As stated before National Socialism calls for ALL races to do the best for their own. You don’t seem to understand this, did you even read the quote I shared of Oswald Molsey. This should’ve been clear.
As for the response from the original author, it is no surprise that he isn’t able to contain an Ad Hominem attack, alas I am already used to it. Michael von Faulhaber was a fallible human being, which although how pure his intentions were, they are overclouded by the fact that his understanding of NS Racial Theory and Science is poor. The science on this is established as stated above. You’re also forgetting to mention that Hitler officially condemned new age Paganism and Alfred Rosenbergs Christianity back in 1935. It seems he was unaware of this.
Now you’re just playing a game of semantics. Just because you don’t understand the poetic language Hitler oftened used doesn’t mean he was Pagan. Your argument is so absurd that not even the worst of the Hitler haters use such an argument against him. We do know that this wasn’t literal since he specifically mentions his lord driving out the money changers from the temple. So please use the brain God gave to you before uttering such a ridicolous argument.
Slanders against Hitler aren’t arguments. I can claim in a book that you had sex with your gran, doesn’t mean it’s true. Please let’s stick to verifible facts and not reduce ourselves to such arguments.
The usage of the Swastika was never condemned. I live in an area where their own version of the Swastika, which resembles their people, has been used for thousands of years without any condemnation from the Church (unless they considered them to contain powers of their own). It was also used by the PNV in Spain. In the words of Hitler it resembled the Aryan man, the red their social programs and in the white the nationalistic idea. It didn’t have any sort of supernatural intention despite what you want it to mean.
Please, you’re making yourself look stupid, Ernst Rohm was killed due to a plan coup d’etat in the night of the long knives.
Lastly, On guard, unless you provide anything of substance I’ll have to assume you are mentally incapable of such a feat and reduce your arguments to attacking me as an individual.
Hundreds of thousands of years and yet it can be seen in rats now? Come on, now?
As for NS, we’ve seen what it does in practice. It’s not Christian.
I gave you verifiable examples of Hitler’s regime. You don’t see how anti-Catholic he was?
As for mixing of races, any argument against it is against me and my family. I won’t tolerate it. There’s lots of arguments that God doesn’t exist, so? People will argue about whatever they want to believe and they will accept whatever so-called proof that’s presented. I see it daily just in religion and race is no exception. When I see people like you arguing for NS and the separation of race, it’s like hearing atheists argue against God and condemnation of all religion.
John, your righteous discrimination is a nefarious opinion without substance. You articulate an admiration of Hitler which drastically diminishes your judgement of character. That in itself kills your credibility for discernment on racism and the human experience. I hope you don’t claim you are Catholic. You fall more in line with freemasonry thought and come across as a real BSer.
Please consider focusing your energies on helping others find their salvation and not using this platform for your contempt of human weaknesses.
Steven, I remind you of the link I sent of 20 charts proving that despite Affirmative Action and better access to education, the average IQ of blacks has not gone up, so obviously it’s not the same for Rats and Humans.
SPERAY REPLIES: What you’re providing is one side of the story. There is great debate about the subject with critics on both sides. There is no proof one way or the other. It doesn’t matter anyway. We don’t separate each other based on IQ tests.
I sense you’re being defensive at this point, since you married a black woman.
SPERAY REPLIES: Yes, I’ll will defend my position especially when you’re attacking my family life.
In the same way I can be defensive due to the obvious fact that Race Mixing is pushed by Jews to do away with the European Race.
SPERAY REPLIES: Total nonsense.
National Socialism was Christian,
SPERAY REPLIES: Never!
the Catholic Church never excommunicated Hitler because there is no evidence he ever became an apostate.
SPERAY REPLIES: Hitler was not a Catholic. He was automatically excommunicated when he left the Church. There’s no need to excommunicate someone who publicly renounces the Catholic religion and we have many instances of the Church not excommunicating (vitandi) apostates. You’re argument is completely flawed.
Nothing he ever said went against infallible dogma and he wished to revive the Christian spirit in the German Folk.
SPERAY REPLIES: He was anti-Christian. He had priests murdered and/or deported by the thousands.
Leon Degrelle’s book “For a Thousand Years Hitler” is a good read that does away with the post war propaganda.
SPERAY REPLIES: The Shadow of His Wings is a good read from a priest that was in the SS. https://www.amazon.com/Shadow-His-Wings-Gereon-Goldmann/dp/0898707749
So while Racial Abuse is condemned by the church, the reality of Race is not.
SPERAY REPLIES: Racism is condemned by Christ. It is not love of neighbor as yourself.
The Scientific evidence is also undeniable, why do you think that people lose their jobs for stating the biological reality of Race?
SPERAY REPLIES: Evidence according to whom?
As for your reference to Maximilian Kolbe, I urge to do more research on what really happened. The mainstream account is extremely flawed. There is evidence of him undergoing very expensive lung scans at the camp.
SPERAY REPLIES: I have. The Nazi’s were mass murderers.
The National Socialists didn’t care if you were a priest, an aristocrat or a worker. If you disobey the law you get sent to prison. If they made exceptions the Jews would’ve surely used it as a tool for Germanys destruction.
SPERAY REPLIES: Yes, their laws were evil. I bet you’re against our 2nd Amendment as Hitler was.
Martyrs Village is dealt in several articles in the following link: https://codoh.com/library/categories/914/
SPERAY REPLIES: Not interested in reading lies from any devil promoting Hitler’s regime. We have survivors tell us what happened.
You see Steven, History is written by the victors.
SPERAY REPLIES: https://shubhamjain.co/2018/12/01/history-written-by-victors-foolish-phrase/
I’ll have to do more research about “Martyrs of Nowogródek” but from the little I’ve read it seems like the Germans were trying to deal with apologists for the soviet partisans. Note that many “massacres” were done against soviet partisans who were later changed to “Jews”. (They were nearly all Jewish)
SPERAY REPLIES: THEY WERE NUNS! I bet you hate Pope Pius XII for saving 800,000 Jews?
At this point I see no point on further arguing to prove my point. I have provided the evidence, wether you accept it or not is out of my power. Even so, National Socialism is once again rising.
SPERAY REPLIES: You have just proved my point. The devil has been let loose and runs the show. NS is from hell.
You keep on claiming a, b and c while never providing any evidence. You say Hitler wasn’t a Catholic yet you provide no evidence, on the contrary I can and did provide evidence that he was, you simply ignored this.
SPERAY REPLIES: He hated the Catholic Church. In 1937, Pius XI ISSUED: http://www.vatican.va/content/pius-xi/en/encyclicals/documents/hf_p-xi_enc_14031937_mit-brennender-sorge.html READ IT CLOSELY. By 1939, Hitler had all Catholic Schools shut down. Hitler raged a war against the Catholic Church. You have no evidence to the contrary. Again, he had killed or deported thousands of priests. YOU HAVE NOT DEALT WITH THIS POINT. You dismiss the evidence that Hitler was evil from the eyewitnesses themselves. I even provided a link to a book by an SS officer.
You refuse to acknowledge all the links I sent proving the reality of Race, you dismissed the evidence that the “Village Martyrs” is not what it seemed without even looking at it, your answer to me pointing out the lies about MK is you simply saying that “muh nazis ebil” etc.
SPERAY REPLIES: You refuse to acknowledge well-known facts about Hitler’s persecution of Catholics and the Catholic Church.
I have tried to be reasonable with you but it seems that you’re too ignorant to ever acknowledge the truth.
SPERAY REPLIES: Now you have to resort to ad hominem because I provide a counter-argument with real evidence. It seems that you have bought into the neo-nazi lies about Hitler and his regime and you refuse to ever acknowledge the truth.
You have just proven that you are historically and scientifically illiterate on this subject and could only resort to cheap answers or constant parroting about how evil the Nazis supposedly were.
SPERAY REPLIES: You have just proven that you are historically and scientifically illiterate on this subject and could only resort to cheap answers or constant parroting about how evil the Nazis supposedly were NOT.
Keep living in lala land but the simple fact is that Fascism is winning; we must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children.
SPERAY REPLIES: Nice racist statement. You clearly hate everyone not white even though you deny it. Fascism is winning because the devil is winning, but you will all lose in the end.
It is natural that people gravitate to others of the same ethnic, cultural and racial qualities. This is not racism, racism is the belief that one race is superior to another. As for marriage, it is highly recommended that you marry as close to your own ethnicity, racial and culture as possible. In the long run, it will be easier to cement ties with family and we each other especially when the ‘bloom is off the rose’. Interracial marriages are very hard to navigate because of the wide avenue of differences and are especially hard on the children who mostly grow up with a feeling of displacement. I won’t go into personal reasons I believe this but I have reason to believe this advice is sound. Saying this, God loves all people but the world does not, something to think about when making a decision to marry and the effect it has on the children produced by the marriage.
