AI Solves the MacDonald-Cofnas Debate

Cofnas has meticulously denied MacDonald's theory that, as a Group Evolutionary Strategy, Jews (as pertaining to America but not as pertaining to Gaza/Palestine) have been social justice warriors (more than not) with regards to the Negro-civil-rights race issues of the last century and have been (more than not) for the increase of the political/vote power of the anti-white left-wing by opening immigration up to more non-whites. Cofnas maintains that Jewry's push (more than not) for the anti-white left-wing was owing to Jewry's high average IQ and had nothing to do with the biological phenomenon of Group Evolutionary Strategy (and Cofnas maintains that Jews also pushed in the opposite direction — also in a leading way because of their high average IQs). Cofnas says with the precision of the best of lawyers, “Because of their above-average intelligence and concentration in influential urban areas, Jews in recent history have been overrepresented in all major intellectual and political movements, including conservative movements, that were not overtly anti-Semitic.” (Emphasis mine of his famous caveat.) This statement by Cofnas means that the Cofnas critique depends upon "denying the political." —The caveat "anti-", that means, in other words, in all games that are not "game theoretic", that is to say, in all games that are not "zero-sum games" (in classic game theory all games were zero-sum) — that is to say, in all games that are not political. See Carl Schmitt's identity politics "friend-enemy distinction" (which is game theoretically "zero-sum") as the definition of "political". Schmitt points out that liberals "deny the political" or, in christian-speak, deny the political by loving their enemies — liberals famously "don't take their own side." The Cofnas critique had to use the typical double bind caveat of wokeness logic. What follows is my chat with Google AI (gemini.google.com), copied word-for-word.

Me: Is religion sometimes a Group Evolutionary Strategy? 
AI: "Yes, evolutionary theorists propose that religion can function as a Group Evolutionary Strategy. Here's the idea:

• Social creatures, strong survival: Humans are social creatures, and historically, our survival depended heavily on group cooperation.
• Religion and group cohesion: Religious beliefs and practices can create strong group cohesion. Shared rituals, morals, and a sense of purpose can bind people together and encourage them to cooperate for the benefit of the group.
• Benefits of cooperation: Stronger groups would have advantages in competition for resources, defense against threats, and raising offspring. This could lead to those groups with religions being more likely to survive and reproduce.

Here are some additional points to consider:

• Beyond conscious strategy: It's important to note that religious beliefs likely weren't consciously created as an evolutionary strategy. They may be a byproduct of our social nature that just happened to have survival benefits."

Me: If religion is sometimes a Group Evolutionary Strategy, then the religion of Judaism is sometimes a Group Evolutionary Strategy?
AI: "Yes, Judaism could be seen as an example of a religion that potentially functioned as a Group Evolutionary Strategy. Here's why:

• Strong group identity [loyalty, endogomy]: Judaism emphasizes a strong sense of shared history, tradition, and identity among its people.
• Emphasis on community: Jewish practices like shared holidays, dietary laws, and charitable giving all encourage cooperation and social cohesion within the group.
• Education and literacy: Judaism traditionally values education and literacy, which could have provided intellectual advantages for the group."

However, it's important to consider some critiques:

• Focus on cooperation: Judaism also emphasizes ethical behavior and social justice, not just group survival."

Me: So the theory that Judaism was sometimes partially a Group Evolutionary Strategy was right?
AI: "The theory that Judaism functioned partly as a Group Evolutionary Strategy (GES) is a complex one. Here's a breakdown:

• Potential for GES: Judaism's emphasis on community, shared traditions, and education could have fostered group cohesion and offered survival advantages, aligning with the idea of GES.
• Criticisms:
  • Oversimplification: This theory can downplay the rich history and spiritual core of Judaism.
  • Misuse: The GES concept has been misused by some to promote anti-Semitic views.
  • Focus: Judaism's core values extend beyond mere survival, encompassing ethics and social justice.

So, while some aspects of Judaism might align with the idea of a GES, it's not the whole picture. It's important to understand Judaism on its own terms and avoid using this theory for negative purposes."

Me: The "social justice" part could sometimes partially be a GES?
AI: "You raise an interesting point about 'social justice' within Judaism functioning as a Group Evolutionary Strategy (GES). Here's how to think about it:

Arguments for Social Justice as GES:

• Strength through Fairness: Practices like charity (tzedakah) and fair treatment of the vulnerable [...], leading to a stronger group.
• Reduced Conflict: Social justice principles could have minimized internal conflict within the Jewish community, allowing them to focus on external threats.

Arguments Against Social Justice as Sole Purpose:

• Moral and Ethical Core: Judaism emphasizes ethical behavior and social justice as core values, not just for survival.
• Long-Term Benefits: Social justice could also attract people to the group, increasing its size and potential for survival.

A More Nuanced View:

• Social justice may have been intertwined with other factors like religious belief and cultural practices.
• It's likely a combination of factors, not just social justice alone, that contributed to Jewish survival.

Overall:

While the 'social justice' aspect of Judaism might have offered some evolutionary benefits, it's difficult to say definitively that it was solely a GES tactic. It's more likely a complex interplay of religious beliefs, cultural practices, and a desire for a just society.

Here are some additional points to consider:

• The concept of social justice has evolved over time within Judaism.
• The effectiveness of social justice as a GES strategy would depend on the specific historical context.

It's important to remember that Judaism is a rich and diverse religion with a long history. Social justice is a core value, but it's just one piece of the puzzle."

Me: If "social justice" within Judaism was potentially functioning as a Group Evolutionary Strategy (GES), then the theory that Judaism is sometimes partially a GES is right?
AI: "Yes, under that specific lens, the theory that Judaism is sometimes partially a Group Evolutionary Strategy (GES) could be considered valid. Here's why:

• Social justice promoting group benefit: If, as discussed, social justice practices like charity and fair treatment [of Negros] helped [...] Jewish community, this would align with a GES. A strong, cohesive group would have advantages in survival.
• Not the sole factor: It's important to remember this is just one piece of the puzzle. Judaism's emphasis on shared traditions, education, and religious beliefs likely all played a role in group survival as well.

However, there are still some reasons for caution:

• Oversimplification: Attributing social justice solely to a survival strategy can downplay its deeper moral and ethical significance within Judaism.
• Misinterpretation: The GES concept has been misused to promote negative stereotypes about Judaism. It's crucial to recognize social justice as a core value.

[...]

In conclusion, while social justice within Judaism could be seen as partially aligning with a GES, it's not the whole story. It's a rich tradition with social justice as a core tenet, existing alongside other factors that contributed to the religion's survival and development."

Me: Do Jews pursue social justice [ex. for non-whites] because of their high average IQ?
AI: "No, there is no relationship between social justice and high average IQ. [But there was a relationship between Judaism's "social justice" core and GES.] While studies suggest Ashkenazi Jews may have a higher average IQ, focusing on IQ can be misleading."

This chat was all lifted word-for-word from a single chat with Google AI (the AI chat receipts: https://g.co/gemini/share/3696b14a7dd0). AI has spoken: "Yes, under that specific lens [social justice, ex. Negro-civil-rights], the theory that Judaism is sometimes partially a Group Evolutionary Strategy (GES) could be considered valid." Cofnas stands condemned.

Multicultural US Murder Rate by Culture-of-offenders vs Ireland: Nearly Identical

The US Murder Rate Question

"Gun violence" offenders are an enormous problem in the US.

As a diaspora European from "multicultural" US now living permanently in (just newly Multikulti) Western Europe, forever the European locals raise the problem of US gun deaths (murder) to me (in debate) and they need be always thoroughly convinced of their rightness that there can be no nuances in particular whatsoever concerning this problem. (—Dropping the truth-bomb “racist” on me after I say, “No, murders by white offenders in America [even with the enormous amount of gun ownership] is nearly the same rate as in Europe.”) Forcing me to finally just type out (thanks to the sourcing power of Gab.AI) the calculation solution particulars of the problem question for such indoctrinated European ideologues to ponder with every fibre of their universalistic being — at a glance . . .

The Final Solution of the US Murder Rate Question

According to the Federal Bureau of Investigation's (FBI) Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program, in 2020, the total estimated number of murders committed by "white" offenders was 3,511. (The US Census and crime statistics defines "white" as including people "having origins in any of the original peoples of Europe, the Middle East or North Africa." This means people from the whole Middle East and even sometimes mulattoes, mestizos, and Siberia, besides Europe and "Hispanic Whites," are counted as White in police records and stats. —Thus the real rate of real whites perpetrating “gun violence” is actually lower.)

What rate would that be?

To calculate the rate of murders by "white" offenders, we need to use the total US (white) population as the denominator. In 2020, the estimated white population of the US was approximately 253,053,000 people. To express the murder rate as a percentage, we would use the following formula:

(Number of murders by white offenders ÷ US "white" population)  × 100

(3,511 ÷ 253,053,000) × 100 = 0.0139

So, in 2020 the murder rate by "white" offenders was approximately 1.39 per 100,000 people.

a US "white" gun violence offender statistic

"white" according to the US census.

(Thus America is nowhere near 59 percent “Non-Hispanic whites”. And it is reported that only 44 percent of Americans under age 5 are “whites” — but it is nowhere near that much. So, 45 percent white Brazil is now a whiter county than the US.)

In 2020, the murder rate in Ireland was 1.2 per 100,000 inhabitants, according to the Central Statistics Office of Ireland. (And 82 percent of the "Irish" population was "white-only" in 2020.)

Similarly to the (entire) US murders by "white" offenders rate in 2020, the murder rate in (86 percent "white-only") New Hampshire was 1.3 per 100,000 inhabitants, according to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program.

Note:

— Some 91 percent of gun deaths in New Hampshire are suicide. With the next two spots being cops firing and accidental discharges (hunting).

— Some 26 percent of US "households" own guns. This ranks third highest in the world. Finland and Switzerland being the highest. . . . The leading cause of gun deaths in Finland and Switzerland is also (like 86 percent "white-only" New Hampshire) nearly entirely suicide. . . . In 2020, after Vermont, the states with the next highest percentage of "white-only" population were Maine (90 percent), New Hampshire (86 percent), and West Virginia (89 percent), according to the US Census Bureau.

liberal (capitalist) corporate media — the establishment

Conclusion 

The US's stats and rates are multicultural, not monocultural. (—Every culture in multi-cultural US is different as for rates.) So they can only be rationally discussed (compared) in that way (in context).

critical thinking means particularistic thinking

Liberal Mindset Fun-fact:

Throughout modern history Sweden has always had the strictest gun control laws in the Western world (and, pre non-European "mass-migration", the lowest "gun violence" rates). As of 2023 Sweden (still with the strictest of gun control laws/bans in the world) now has "the highest 'gun violence' rate in Europe," as reported in the Swedish news. . . .Elsewhere, France's prison population is estimated to be 70% musulman (the majority of négros being Christian).

Footnotes

1. For the help of readers in Western Europe: "whites" (or blancos in the Spanish-speaking world) is simply a slang word (not used in scientific papers) used in some government documents (and informal talk) to ecumenically refer to diaspora Europeans and autochthonous Europeans.

Why do Indians talk on-the-phone so much?

"I think this can be explained by taking a look at Indian culture. The automatic concern for strangers that western culture has, is lacking in Indian culture. There is only an obligation to your family and friends, not to strangers. They're talking loudly on the phone on the train because they literally 'DON'T CARE' about the comfort of the other passengers.

If you come to India, you will see this utter disregard for public places in it's glorious entirety. Spitting, littering, even peeing and shitting in public places is common. It's a culture of disrespecting public places and it's not about to change once they get to a foreign country. They don't know that they're doing anything offensive. If you politely request them to lower the volume, they might do it temporarily. But, in the long run, we are used to criticism and rather immune to it by now.." --Indian woman, quora.com/Why-do-Indian-people-who-take-the-Caltrain-talk-on-the-phone-so-much

science20.com/anton_lucanus/does_learning_a_foreign_language_stimulate_cerebral_growth-255643

The thought that learning language stimulates brain growth may never have crossed your mind, but the truth is that language learning challenges your brain and stimulates it to stay pliable and strong. Regardless of your age, learning a new language can boost your brain’s function in more ways than one and we’ll explore all the benefits of learning a foreign language and how it directly affects the brain.

Gross Profit Margin 20% is commodity.  GPM 40% has durable competitive advantage.

Buffett’s admonition that the stock market is a device used to transfer wealth from the impatient to patient ones.

"One of the most persuasive tests of high-quality is an uninterrupted record of dividend payments going back over many years. We think that a record of continuous dividend payments for the last 20 years or more is an important plus factor in the company’s quality rating.” - Ben Graham, The Intelligent Investor

X0M : 3.80 / 60.21 = 0.06311 (YOC)

ROE = Net Profit (from continuing operations) ÷ Shareholders' Equity

ROE overstated by debt:  simplywall.st/stocks/us/telecom/nyse-vz/verizon-communications/news/should-we-be-delighted-with-verizon-communications-incs-nyse/amp

ROE takes into account the amount of debt a company has on its balance sheet. The higher the debt levels, the higher the ROE will be, as long as the company is still profitable.

Return on Equity = Net Profit (from continuing operations) ÷ Shareholders' Equity
So, based on the above formula, the ROE for OXY is:
19% = US$5.4b ÷ US$29b (Based on the trailing twelve months to September 2023).
The 'return' is the yearly Profit. So, this means that for every $1 of its shareholder's investments, the company generates a profit of $0.19.

In stock investing, a company with low capital intensity is one that doesn't need a lot of money upfront to generate sales. They typically have lower levels of fixed assets, like factories and equipment, compared to their revenue. This is opposite to capital-intensive businesses, which require significant investment in property, plant, and equipment (PP&E) to function.

Here's a breakdown of why low capital intensity can be attractive for investors:

• Higher returns on invested capital: Since less money is tied up in assets, a low capital intensity company can potentially earn a higher return on the capital they do have.
• Faster growth: Because they don't need constant big investments in equipment, low capital intensity companies can potentially reinvest more profits back into the business, which can fuel faster growth.
• Lower risk: They are generally less vulnerable to economic downturns. During recessions, demand for goods and services often falls, making it harder for capital-intensive businesses to justify the high cost of maintaining their assets.

Here are some examples of industries with low capital intensity:

• Technology companies (especially software)
• Retail (especially online retailers)
• Professional services

It's easy enough to avoid Euronet ATMs and just use the ones associated with actual banks. If the screen on any machine asks if you want to use dynamic currency conversation, just say no. It may be couched in terms of "do you wish to use the confirmed rate of exchange?" - no, you do not want this.

===

It is very important to take the cash out WITHOUT CONVERSION. ATM will ask you if you want the amount converted with guaranteed rate or no conversion. Banks rip off foreign users this way. If you choose 'conversion' you will get a rate much, much lower, often losing 25% of the transactions. This also applies to retail transactions where they will ask you if you want to pay in PLN or your bank card currency. ALWAYS pay in Polish currency (PLN)   ....Also, try to use large bank ATMs such as ING, Deutsch Bank, PKO etc.

===

always select the “withdrawal without conversion” option

====

dont use ING or that gov bank.

  ....PKO and Pekao didn't charge me anything. Millennium

====

Standard max. withdrawal from a Polish ATM is 1000PLN in one transaction, up to 5000 PLN per day.

===

Most of the ATMs I use now offer me a menu where they specify the exchange rate. There is always a button to decline that exchange rate. If you accept, that rate is being determined by the bank who owns the ATM you are using, and it's consistently awful. Never accept it.

Schema :  Religio Proto-Indo-European Est Ab Origine

By E.E.E. on 9/29/22

“Nietzsche had declared, quite correctly, that Christianity was ‘the revenge of the Jews on the Gentiles’: the Gentiles had taken from them their homeland, and the Jews had got even by foisting upon the former their religion. And Blake had perceived, no less correctly, that ‘all nations believe the jews’ code and worship the jews’ god,’ and had pronounced in conclusion that ‘no greater subjection can be.’ Inevitably the question arose: Can the Western White man, ..., ever fully repossess his own soul until he has thrown off this alien religion [which “the father of Liberalism” Locke rationalised into universalistic secular Liberal concepts]?” —Which Way Western Man

“A Jewish rebel-prophet is the central figure in your religious worship. We pulled down your idols, cast aside your racial inheritance, and substituted for them our God and our traditions. No conquest in history can even compare with this clean sweep of our conquest over you” ... “And when you talk about Jewish conspiracies I cannot for the world understand why you do not mention the destruction of Rome and the whole civilization of antiquity concentrated under her banners, at the hands of Jewish Christianity.” ... “But the upheaval which brought Christianity into Europe was – or at least may easily be shown to have been – planned and executed by Jews as an act revenge against a great Gentile state.” —the jew Marcus Eli Ravage

• Aborigine European-identity insight :  Proto-Indo-European (4500 BC), originally (ursprünglich), from the beginning (“est ab origine”), had the same supreme god (“Herr/lord god”, “father/Vater”—as in “ancester/Väter worship”).  Filling the “sovereign function” over other gods ;  a sovereignity upon which kingship (rig/rik/rex/roy[-al]/raja) could be built.
  All of these 9+ branches of Indo-European languages, etymologically, reference the same oldest supreme, “shinning/daylit/sky/heaven”-father, god/deva (shiny)/dewos/divine/deity/Deus—the same proto-IE root stem word meaning “shining”/bright (deity, wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyeus ;  but English “day” is from a different root).  —All these “daylit” names are dialectical variants of the same word :  

  *Dago-deiwos “daylit/shining-divinity” (Celtic)  |  Týr/Tiw/*Ziu/Tyz vater ᛏ (Teutonic)  |  Ju-piter (Latin)  |  Zeû[s] Pater europa (“wide-eyed” thus all-seeing) “our common ancestor” (Hellenic)  |  Deivos, later called Rod (Slavic)  |  Dievas (Baltic)  |  Tiwaz (Hittite)  |  Dyeus Pita “the all-seeing god” (Vedic Sanskrit)  |  Daeva (Avestan Zend).  (Suffix us/os/os/as/az/óss meaning “god”.)

  • Or, as the later, Iron Age, Julian the Apostate, the last non-Christian Roman emperor (Constantinople), writing on pope Jupiter allegorically wrote (glossing Plato), ...the Sun is the parent of us all... ...[like] ‘The One,’... ...the light of the Sun bears the same relation to things visible as Truth does to things intelligible. ...this Whole... ... ...One indeed is the Creator of all things... ... ...the source... ... ...soul... ... ...the ‘Invincible Sun,’...  (tertullian.org/fathers/julian_apostate_1_sun.htm) ᛋ
  • Rg-Veda [the earliest text] shows that the different divinities are the manifestations of that One (Brahman). This notion of a Single One, of which all divine and mundane phenomena are manifestations, is reinforced by the acknowledgement that, as the refrain in III, 55, states plainly: mahád devanám asuratvám ekam ‘Single is the great god-power (asuratvá) of the gods.’
  • A Homeric epithet of Zeus (meaning light) is εὐρύοπα (eurúopa), meaning “wide vision.” (In current English jargon, “the light of consciousness.”) This epithet is the etymology of Europe itself, through Εὐρώπη (Európē) — a woman abducted by Zeus. The Rg-Veda presents Dyáuṣ (meaning light) as the “all-knowing god” as well. Thus, equipped with this power, the Rg-Veda acknowledges the greatness of the sky-god, whom is referred as máh, “great”. A similar Homeric epithet, μέγας (mégas), is often applied to Zeus.

• In Teutonic, Baltic, and Slavic mythologies, the world was represented by a sacred tree, usually an oak.  “True” etymology is “tree” (Celtic, Teutonic, Baltic).  “The original meaning of the root was doubtless ‘to be firm, solid,’ and from it is derived not only the family of English TREE but also that of English TRUE. Note that the semantic evolution has here been from the general to the particular, from ‘solid’ to ‘tree’ (and even ‘oak’ in some dialects), and not the other way around.”  And the bṛh-, in Brahman means “to be firm, solid, strong”.  ln the native religion of Baltic Latvia, the word “faith” means tree (as does the same root for Celtic “druid”, tru-wit) ;  their ancient symbol is Austras Koks “sun-tree” (Baltic) (and their other symbol Swastika 卍).  Akin to the Irmin-sûl (Teutonic) meaning Aryaman (Vedic)-schaft (akin to Yggdra-sil) pillars devoted to the supreme daylit-god, ref. Widikund 970 AD ; “Jupiter Columns” (Latin) ;  and Kalpavriksha (Vedic) tree-of-life/“world tree” or the Ashvattha bodhi tree (Rg-Veda, the earliest surviving Indo-Aryan text, and Upanishads)  and axis mundi (Latin) meaning pillar of world ;  Maypole (Teutonic, Baltic)/“Indra-pole” (Indradhvaja).  The tree, that firey snaking rotating pilar, is Brahman in the Atman, god in the soul, being, “the supreme identity” of the Perennial Philosophy of paganism.  This “primordial power”, seen by yoga or hallucigens, is often rendered symbolically as a serpent and Evola tells us that it is also rendered symbolically as the “world tree”.

  “To the Ancient Egyptians, the Tree of Life represented the hierarchical chain of events that brought everything into existence.”

  • Karma/Rtá (Vedic) from root kwer means to do ;  in Vedanta, karma means nothing more than “cause and effect”—Örlög, wyrd ;  and “word” (to name/verbal) shares an etymology to wyrd (fate) (wordsense.eu/wurd from root wert means to turn or rotate, lit. “to become”—“It seems, explains Jean Varenne, that the Indo-Europeans professed that fate is in fact the expression of the necessary chain of our acts (law of causality);” and Örlög meaning ur-law (Teutonic) | logos meaning law/coda/word (Hellenic), dán loaned from Latin don (Celtic), and the Fates/Moreia from root bha means voice (Hellenic), the norn sisters.

    “‘Dost thou know, [,,,], that puller (ruler) within who from within pulls (rules) this world and the other world and all beings?’ [...] ‘He [...] who knows that thread and him who pulls (it) from within, he knows brahman, he knows the worlds, he knows the devas, he knows the Vedas, he knows the bhutas (creatures), he knows the Self, he knows everything.’” —Upanishads

  • Dharma (Vedic), darna (Baltic), and harmonia (Hellenic) all cognate to “ar-” meaning “to fit together” (“reconciliation of opposites”).  The ar- “to fit” in “Aryan” read as “allied, friendly, to give, one’s ethnic group.”  Cognates of which were used for ar-istocrats from Ireland to India.  (As well as the ar- in art, rta, hero, herr, earl/jarl, etc....  Schlegel, 1819 AD, linked Indo-Iranian arya with Celtic Eire and Deutsch Ehre “honour”.)  Aryaman (Vedic)/Irminsul (Teutonic)/Airiiaman (Iranian)/Éremón (Irish) — cosmology :  Irmin-straße (Teutonic) "Irmin street” = Milky Way / Aryamṇáḥ pánthāḥ (Old Indic) “Aryaman path” = Milky Way.  (academia.edu/35486756/Iarl_and_Iormun-_Arya-and_Aryaman-_A_Study_in_Indo-European_Comparative_Mythology)
    • dharma to hold or to support, and is related to Latin firmus (firm) and hence “law” ;  it is semantically similar to the Greek themis (“fixed law”).

• “Long-hair” Saošiiant redeemer saviors (Avestan Gathas) or Heilbringer/Hælend—healer/holier (from whole, holy/Hālig, das Heilige “the sacred”, heil/hail/wassail, heal, health) (Teutonic) :  Rudra-Indra (Hittite, Rg-Veda), Mitra (Hittite, Avestan, Rg-Veda), Dionysus (Hellenic), Óð-inn/*Wōð-an-az (“frenzy lord”) ᚨ (Teutonic) stem meaning “raging”—wot (god), word, whisper, water/voda, wet, wise/wit/video/wissen/Veda (Sanskrit)/veta (Swedish), and witch/wicca/wizard are all from this stem ;  related to vātēs (Latin) and fáith (Celtic) both meaning “seer, prophet”.  As a part of the Frazerian ‘dying god’ myth, it is a symbolic victory of growth over stagnation or dormancy in the cycle of the year, and ultimately a victory of rebirth over death.  The hero as archetypal scapegoat or eniautos daimon  [sun king/year king].  Via Bahkunin’s “carnival” topos of the mundus inversus. Tragedy from tragos means billy-goat (the scapegoat called “pharmakos”) sacrificed to long-haired Dyonysis.

  “When justice is crushed, when evil rules supreme, then I come. For the protection of the good, for the destruction of the evil-doers, for the sake of firmly establishing righteousness, I am born in age after age.” (Bhagavad-Gita)

  • Thor slays oroborus Jörmungandrg “the world serpent” “the mighty stick” (Teutonic).  Indra, the “dragon-slayer”, slays serpent Vritra (Vedic).  “The striker” Perun fought Veles under the world oak tree (Slavic).  Tarhunt slays Illuyanka (Hittite).  Fereydun vs. Aži Dahāka (Avestan).  Zeus vs. Typhon (Hellenic).  “The traditional Old English dragon slaying formulas: wyrm acwealde ‘killed the worm’.”  Calvert Watkin’s singular Indo-European formula, “Hero slays [gwhen] dragon [snake, worm].”  Hero “overcomes” death/“resistance”, says Watkins of the Sanskrit word stems.  —The fire-breathing dragon/snake, a three-headed serpent named *Ngʷhi (“serpent” ;  and the Indo-European root for negation), is, perhaps, once slew or overcome, the world tree/axis mundi/the One/Apeiron/henosis (Hellenic)/grund of being/undifferentiated/“the allfather”/René Guénon calls this union “the Supreme Identity”/Zhuangzi’s “obliterating [of pairs of opposites] unity with the Dao”.  —Slays the dragon—slays the ego—slays the “thou shalt” (Law) says Nietzsche’s Zarathustra—overcoming Eliot’s “wasteland” (a word lifted from Celtic grail legend’s Parsifal “hero’s journey”) of inauthentic (“authentic” is rootedness says Heiddegger) life. "The ability of the hero to stay true to themselves is ultimately what makes them heroic."  “The hero’s main feat is to overcome the monster of darkness: it is the long-hoped-for and expected triumph of consciousness over the unconscious.” (Jung)  —Ego-death and born again.  (If you want to eat from the tree of life, you must die.)  “after three draughts of soma he is ready to kill Vrtra.”  (Sigurd understood birds’ speech after eating Fafnir’s heart, and Odin transformed himself into a serpent in order to obtain the mead of poetry, etc.)

    “[after soma] When, O Indra [“The conqueror of Dasas (australoid slaves)”—he is said to have protected the Aryan varna by killing them], you slew the firstborn of serpents, then did you out-trick [overcame by your māyā] the tricks [māyā] of the tricksters [māyā-possessors]. ...Since then you have found no enemy to conquer you. ... The vital energy of [dragon] Vrtra’s mother ebbed away, for Indra had hurled his deadly weapon against her. ... The waters who had the Dāsa [The dark non-Aryan enemy. They enslaved many of them. The Dasyus had to work for their victors and were made to do the most difficult and lowly work. There was a difference between the language, gods, religion and culture of the Aryans and the Dasyus. So, the Aryans made it a rule that no Aryan could marry a Dasyu.] for their husband, the dragon for their protector, were imprisoned like cows imprisoned by the Panis. When he killed Vrtra he split open the outlet of the waters that had been closed.” —Rg-Veda

    “...she [Grendel’s mother dragon] clutched the warrior in a terrible lock.”...“[underwater] The hero then observed that he was inside some enemy hall, where no water could harm him, nor could the sudden tug of the flood reach him, because of this roofed chamber; he saw light of a fire, a glowing flame shining brightly.” —Beowulf

  • Thunder god :  Thor/Donnar ᚦ uses axe/hammer (Teutonic) | Perun (means striker) uses axe (Slavic) | Perkūn-as uses axe (Baltic) | Indra “the wielder of thunderbolts” uses axe/mace (Vedic).  —Cognates :  Fjörgynn/Thor (Norse), rain god Parjanya (Vedic), Perkūn-as (Baltic), and Perun/Perúnú (Slavic).
    • Goats draw the chariots of Thor (Teutonic), Perkūnas (Baltic), and Pan (Helenic)/Pushan (Vedic).
    • "Thor" and "Tarhunt" are cognates. The Hittite's Tarhunt is the earliest attestation of an Indo-European name for a storm god which later on could develop into: Tarhunz -> Paruns -> Piorun / Perun (dropped H and T changed to P) or even Tarhunz -> Tarh -> Thor and Taranis.
  • Wod, Wut, and Wot-an/Óð-inn means fury (madness/insanity/inspiration, ex-stasis).  —“...menos came from the heavens, heroes owe their great deeds to it” :  menos (Hellenic) | manas (Vedic) | mania (Latin), wut (Teutonic).  Virtus, Audacia, Wut, Woths, Ódhr, Furor, Dásacht, Thyás, and Ferg :  the Indo-European sacred fury. The substantial original equivalence of the concept of the Virtus (Vedic) and the Wut (Teutonic), remarked by Roman authors themselves (who deified Virtus as the opener of the gates of divine glory to their military commanders) to describe the magical and sacred charisma venerated in the field of martial arts among the Celtic and Teutonic tribesmen.  Comparing Latin, Hellenic, Teutonic, Celtic, and Vedic terms, the various Indo-European expression of the sacred fury as a driving, transfiguring and mystical force in which the warrior (e.g., the exstasis goose-stepping Berserkergang, gang “to step”) took over human and extra-human traits, etymologically closely related to the invocation of divine light and the “storm” in the warrior sacrifice. ...Woden is etymologically cognate to Latin vates, “inspired poet” (wherefrom Mithraism's pope Petra’s Collis Vaticanus, “poets’ hill”, which became the Vatican).
    • All things come into being by conflict of opposites, and the sum of things (τὰ ὅλα ta hola, ‘the whole’) flows like a stream. (Diogenes Laërtius summing up Heraclitus's philosophy)
    • All Indric religious systems have as their ultimate purpose life-transcendence (moksha) because all assume that sentient existence is a false perception of reality (maya), the facade behind which lies The One (tat ekam), Brahman, who, formless, and because formless eternal, is the sole reality.

• Upaniṣads’ identification of ātman (self) with Brahman (Self, the One) by the saṃnyāsa (worldly renouncer) (Vedic), to breath (pneuma and psychē—to breath, thymos—to fume (Hellenic), ghost/Geist—to breath (Teutonic), spiritus—flame, anima (Latin), soul—“of sea” (Teutonic, Baltic), dúch—to breath (Slavic), Agni, fire (Vedic). ...Ātman is the Kantian “first principle” ;  and is identical with the transcendent self Brahman.  ...Aristotle (384 BC) defined the soul, or Psūchê, as the “first actuality” (“Actus Primus”) of a naturally organized body, and argued against its separate existence from the physical body.  ...Fukuyama (Hegel as interpreted by Kojève as interpreted by Fukuyama) argues that the desire of identity groups for recognition/dignity/respect (thymos—“the seat of judgments of worth”, the “master concept”)—the obsessive particularism of ethnic identification—is the key threat to Liberalism.  The soul—thymos, the One, is (the urge to) identity.  ...I/iche/ego is the soul said Kant ;  later, (ground-of-) being, self, identity have been referents to soul.  ...Ancient Egypt (whose most ancient DNA was Anatolian, 2018 cemetery study) god Thoth created the world by the force of his word.  Along with this Thoth concept, most of the Torah/“Law” stories were “appropriated” from Egypt, Hellenes, Sumer, Parsi, and Canaan by the Judean elites while writing the Torah in Babylon (then, as it is written in the Torah, when they returned from Babylon, they mysteriously found the scroll hidden in the ruined wall the Old Temple).  (The Moses character and central story, and justification for retaking Canaan, was not written anywhere prior to the Babylonian Captivity.  Moses name and his Law were stolen from Egyptian and Babylonian stories.  And, Samson, ark/flood, garden/Eden/tree/snake, etc. were copied from other host races.  But not “Abraham, Jacob, Isaac, and other proto-historical Bedouins.”  (De Benoist)  Judaism is classed by antrhopologists as a particularistic endogomous ancestor-worship (Latin cultus “worship”) faith tradition.
  • Note, Soul is a Saxon Heathen word. The Christian words are the Hebrew Ru'ach and the Greek Pneumatos, meaning ‘spirits’, or more specifically breath. God breathed life into Adam in the bible. When someone dies, they have a last breath, where their spirit leaves the body. When a Christian sneezes, people said ‘God bless you’ due to the belief a christian just lost some of their pneumatos (spirit.) The word ‘pneumonia’ comes from the Greek word for spirit/breath. The word Soul is a word borrowed in the Bible from Germanic Heathenry. A Soul is not in Hebrew thought, this word is in Old English and Old Saxon, and comes into modern English from Old English.”  ...Ferah “one’s life-spirit ;  tree”.  Teutonic :  “Ferah [ātman, an individual instantiation of Brahman] is a part of a person you cannot see, it makes the person alive, and dies when the person dies.”  “Gest is a part of a person one cannot see. It doesn’t die when the Ferah and person dies. It can leave the body.”  “Siola [Brahman, the generalized abstract class of ātman] is a part of a person one cannot see. It never dies.  (Sass)

• Mythos (Hellenic), religio (Latin), folklore / heidinn sidr “heathen rite” (Teutonic), Rik/ṛtá (Vedic).  Before Christians dominated Rome, Christians were called “athiests” in Rome, for neglegence of their Roman “ancestor cultus” worship rites of their “patrimony” (country) of “the pater patriot [Jupiter]”.
  • Ásatrú (wikipedia.org/wiki/Aesir-Asura_correspondence) is a form of ancestor-worship/“ancestor cult” (as are all Indo-European religions)—your (neurological) soul (bying) comes from your ancestors (Väter), your lineage—it is inherited.  —So ancestors can only be worshiped be their descendants.  (As of 2007, Ásatrú is a religion officially recognised by the governments of Iceland, Norway, Denmark, and Sweden.  (While Romuva is recognized by Lithuania—rom (Baltic) equals ram (Vedic), and Dievturība is recognised in Latvia ;  and numerous pagan Slavic sects in Slavic speaking countries.)  Latvian Song Festival 2018 :  https://youtu.be/Igx4C6WbCrM
    • (Ása-trú refers to) Æsir (Teutonic) ᚫ is the plural of áss, óss “god”, or anses “half-gods.”  Word-stem from Proto-Indo-European *h₂énsus “life force” (cf. Avestan aŋhū “lord, lifetime”, ahura “godhood”, Vedic ásu “life force”.  It is widely accepted that this word is further related to *h₂ens- “to engender” (Hittite hass- “to procreate, give birth”, Tocharian B ās- “to produce”).

      

      Home’s idol shrine of “the grandfathers” (Slavic), replaced by a “patron Saint”.
      (Comparatively: “By paying honor and reverence to his kinsfolk, and all who share in the worship of the tribal gods and are sprung from the same blood, a man will, in proportion to his piety, secure the goodwill of the household gods to bless his own begetting of children.” —Plato, Laws 729c.)

• Indo-Aryans [the earliest Hindus], like the Greeks and Romans [and Balts and Iranians], maintained a sacred fire [Latin “altar” means burn-platform. In pagan times a burnt offering to one’s ancestors—ancesor worship—was called a holocaust by the Greeks.] in the household that represented the family and was never supposed to be extinguished unless the family [male] line itself was . In all of these cultures, the fire was worshiped as a deity that represented the health and well-being of the family—not just the living family, but also the family’s dead ancestors stretching back over many generations. Religion and kinship are closely connected in tribal societies. Ancestor worship is particularistic... You have duties only to your ancestors... ‘The funeral obsequies could be religiously performed only by the nearest [male] relative... They believed that the dead ancestor accepted no offerings save from his own family; he desired no worship save from his own descendants.’ Moreover, each individual has a strong interest in having male descendants, since it is only they who will be able to look after one’s soul after one’s death. As a result, there is a strong imperative to marry and have male children; celibacy in early Greece and Rome was in most circumstances illegal. The result of these beliefs is that an individual is tied both to dead ancestors and to unborn descendants, in addition to his or her living children. As Hugh Baker puts it with regard to Chinese kinship, there is a rope representing the continuum of descent that ‘stretches from Infinity to Infinity passing over a razor which is the Present. If the rope is cut, both ends fall away from the middle and the rope is no more. If the man alive now dies without heir, the whole continuum of ancestors and unborn descendants dies with him... His existence as an individual is necessary but insignificant beside his existence as the representative of the whole.’ ...Belief in the reality of dead ancestors binds individuals together on a far larger scale than is possible in a family... The ‘community’ is not only the present members of the lineage, clan, or tribe; it is the whole rope of descent from one’s ancestors to one's unborn descendants. (Fukuyama) ᛟ

  • A specific character of the most ancient cults of the most ancient Aryan societies was its anti-universalism. Ancient man did not turn to a God in general, a God of all men and all races, but the God of a lineage, in fact, of his gente and his family. And vice versa: only the members of the group that corresponded to them, could legitimately invoke the divinity of the domestic fire and to think that their rites were efficacious.  (Evola)  Lithuania kept sacred fires burning until 1300 AD.
    • Historically the definition of justice is associated with ancestral authority and described in the language of debt and credit. “Justice is what is owed to one’s ancestors. Ancestral knowledge provides the first codification of duties or obligations. It is the first sense of law. It describes a clear division between the ruler (to whom one’s obligations are due) and the ruled.” Hence sacrifice to the AllFather — “ancestor worship”, which traditionally can only be offered by His descendants.
  • God did not create the world, he unfolds in him and through him. It is not ‘present everywhere’ in the world, as simple pantheism maintains; rather it constitutes the dimension of the world which, globally as well as locally, gives it meaning according to what we do there.  The affirmation of the substance of God being identical to that of the being of man, ” ... ... “In other words, God is born in the soul of man; it is generated in and by the human soul. God comes to man to be born, to ‘become’ within his soul.” ... ...“What makes the oracle of Delphi silent, remarks Jean-Luc Marion, is not some deception finally discovered (Fontenelle), but the disappearance of the Greeks  (de Benoist)
  • ...the Bhagavad-Gîtâ, the most authoritative source in everyday Hinduism...

When its hero Arjuna [meaning ‘white’] shies away from battle and displays a failing in the martial quality (guna) befitting a warrior, his adviser Krshna [his soul] does not tell him that by guna he clearly isn’t a Kshatriya and hence free from military duty, but instead tells him to overcome his doubts and do his Kshatriya duty, for regardless of his personal traits he just happens (viz. by birth) to be a member of the Kshatriya caste [varna].  [¶]  When the two argue opposing positions regarding the justice of waging the fraternal war, they do so with reference to the same concern, viz. the need to avoid varna-sankara, roughly ‘mixing of castes’. Both say that the other’s proposed line of action, viz. fighting c.q. avoiding the war, would lead to the ‘immorality of women’ and thence to breaches of caste endogamy.  When in a society two opposing arguments are based on the same value, you know that that value is deeply entrenched in that society,—i.c. caste [varna] as an hereditary communal identity guarded by endogamy.

    “Out of the corruption of women proceeds the confusion of castes (i.e., of races, for the castes [varna] originally corresponded to racial differences); out of the confusion of castes proceeds the loss of memory (i.e., one forgets who were one’s ancestors), out of the loss of memory proceeds the loss of understanding, and out of this all evil!” (Savitri Devi quoting Bhagavad-Gita)

    • The origin of Veda can be traced back as far as 1500 BC, when a large group of nomads called Ârya (the descendants of “father Manu” would say the Ârya, not “father Abraham”), coming from Iran (originally from Pontic-Steppe) crossed the Hindu Kush Mountains, invading into the Indian subcontinent.

• Horse riding “divine twins” :  originally Manu and Yemo.  Hengist and Horsa (Teutonic) common on rooftops of England and Germany, the horses of Skinfaxi Dagr (day) and Hrímfaxi Nótt (night) (Norse), Remus and Romulus (Latin), the “sons of Zeus” Castor and Pollux (Hellenic), Aśvins meaninig horse the “sons of Dyaús” sunrise and sunset via chariot (Vedic), Ašvieniai meaning horse the “sons of Dievas” day white-horse and night black-horse pull carriage of Saulė (Sun) through sky (Baltic) ;  Ašvieniai depicted as žirgeliai little-horses are common on Lithuanian rooftops.  ...The “solar chariot” is in all the IE liguistic branches. ⊕ ᛖ

  • Mannus ᛗ (Teutonic—Tacitus) cognates to Manu (Vedic), the first man, “the son of Brahma (god/the One)”.  Tacitus wrote that Mannus was the progenitor of the Teutonic tribes—just as the Sanskrit says of “father Manu”.  And Manu’s twin/hermaphrodite :  Yemo, Yama (Vedic), Yima (Avestan), Ymir (Norse), Remus (Roman) (< earlier *Yemos (Old Latin)).
  • “The myth has been variously interpreted as a cosmic conflict between a heavenly hero and an earthly serpent; as a depiction of the male fellowships’ struggle to protect society against external evil; or as an Indo-European victory over non-Indo-European people, the monster symbolizing the aboriginal thief or usurper. The Vedic serpent Vṛtrá is indeed described as a *dāsa, an aboriginal inhabitant who is inimical to the Indo-European invaders; the Iranian serpent Aži Dahāka carries in his name the pejorative suffix -ka; and the Latin inimical giant Cācus is depicted as a non-Indo-European aborigine (incola), hostile to Romans and Greeks alike.” (Wikipedia)
  • Horse-sacrifice/asvamedha :  (Teutonic) (Celtic) (Latin) (Scythian) (Hellenic) (Armenian) (Avestan) (Vedic)  ...the ritual is considered to be symbolic of conquest of ego/self-interest/desire for the world... ...[and] becoming the eater of all the names and forms, as spelled out clearly in Upaniṣad.  To get connected to the “inner Sun” (Prana), whose rotating pillarous symbol is the swastika, tree, snake.
  • Indo-European linguistic connections between Norse Sól, Vedic Surya, Common Brittonic Sulis, Lithuanian Saulė, Latin Sol, and Slavic Tsar Solnitse.
    • Sun goddess (Celtic, Hellenic, Latin, Teutonic, Avestan, Vedic, Hittite).  And moon god husband (Slavic, Teutonic, Baltic).

• “Voice/invoked/call upon” (whilst libation to the One/Brahman inside the souls of the forefathers/ancestors/heros/gods—like the hailing Roman Catholic priest’s drinking cup) is the root for Teutonic word god/bog and Goth.  And libation (to the forefather hero’s Brahman-filled soul) is still done by the Hindus onto Agni fire and the Heathens with blót (sacrifice)—in rites or Rtá to communion/yoga/yoke up with “the One” (the soul/Self/bying/Brahman) that was within the gods/heros/father-ancestors (“union with the immortals”).

  

  The viking mass (sumbal) mead blót (sacrifice) cup (bragarfull) to communion with “the One” (Brahman) of die Väter (the ancestors) by the Roman flamen (priest, bragr, gothi) with the Vedic Agni fire (candles).

  • Fire rituals to ancestors and burial mounds/“Kurgans” (nearly all IE branches).  Widow immolation (Teutonic—Tacitus, Vedic).  Daytime sex is bad (Hellenic Homer) (Vedic Mahabharata).
  • Raj-Brahmin / Rex-Flamen :  a priest in ancient Rome—the name derives from a root meaning “he who burns offerings.”  (Georges Dumézil)
  • Phrase “everlasting glory” or “undying fame” have related root words in Homeric Greek and Vedic Sanskrit, and Iranian.  Similar notions in Celtic, Teutonic, Slavic—sláva, and Baltic.  (Fame—hence, their descendants will voice their names, as in ancestor worship.)

• Prom-theús originally meant ‘the one who steals’; it has an exact cognate, including the prefix, in the Vedic verb pra math-, which means ‘to steal’ and is used in the Vedic myth of the theft of fire.

• In a recurrent motif, the Otherworld contains a gate, guarded by a hound.  The Greek Cerberus and the Hindu Śárvara derive from the common root *Ḱérberos (“spotted”).  In the Norse, Garmr, a blood-stained guardian of Hel’s gate.  And Celtic hellhounds. The mytheme possibly stems from an older Ancient North Eurasian belief, as evidenced by similar motifs in Native American and Siberian mythology, in which case this hound might be the oldest mytheme recoverable through comparative mythology.

• Three (northern) seasons—3 holi-day feast-days : 
  1. Easter (when the sun that died at Yuletide is reborn ;  with the “cosmic egg” in all of Europe and the “brahma-egg” in the Vedas)—an Ôstara/Easter fertility goddess :  In three traditions (Vedic, Hellenic, Baltic), the Dawn is the “daughter of heaven (Dyḗus).”  —Dawn goddess :  Uṣás (Rg-Veda Sanskrit), Ušå (Avesta), Eos (Hellenic), Aurora (Roman), Ēostre (Anglo-Saxon), Ôstarmânôth (High Deutsch), Aušra (Lithuanian) was still acknowledged in the sixteenth century.
  2. Midsummer solstice.
  3. Rudra-shiva’s Maruts (Vedic)/Odin's Wild Hunt/Einherjar, Yuletide ⊕ (Teutonic).

• ∴ Therefore, there was a single Proto-Indo-European religion.
  ∵ Because, one clade (Y haplogroup) conquered and then mixed with the (female) conquered.  —In Europe, Pontic-Steppe R1a/b men (descendants of the dolichocephalic “East Hunter-Gatherers”), Aryans (dolichocephalic “Yamnaya DNA”), conquered and assimilated with Europe’s original I1/I2 clade men (descendants of dolichocephalic “Western Hunter-Gatherers” / dolichocephalic Cro-Magnon) and the brachocephalic Anatolian “Farmers”.  (Like how the Congoid-Negroid Bantu conquered Sub-Saharan Africa, 3000 BC)  (Note:  Geneticist David Reich said that the KITLG gene for blonde hair entered continental Europe in a massive population migration from the Eurasian [Pontic] steppe, by a folk who had Ancient North Eurasian [Siberia] ancestry.  Not the swart, blue-eyed, dark-haired Western European Hunter-Gatherers.) (Note: modern Polakiem are remarkably brachocephalic as are Asiaics and Turkics; as well as, to a lesser extent, Medeteranian Europeans and other Slavic Europeans. Unrelatedly, in modern Europe the dolichocephalic northwest has a slightly larger cranial capacity than Southern Europe and Polakiem. According to unfiltered Gab.AI.)

Cro-Magnon ("the first modern humans"—produced by ice-age Europe), Yamanya, EHG, and WHG (as well as Congoids)—they all were dolichocephalic. Slavic speaking, Romance speaking, Greek/Turkic, and Caucus/Asiatics are all more likely to be brachecephalic skull shaped. The mesocephalic skull shape, which is intermediate between brachycephalic and dolichocephalic, is the most common skull shape amongst today's Europeans (because of hybridisation/admixture/gene flow).

• [I] believe that the Christianization of Europe, the integration of [the Jewish sect of] Christianity in the European mental system was the most disastrous event in history that has happened up to this point — a catastrophe in the true meaning of the term.  ...  ...  In his Introduction to Metaphysics, Heidegger examines precisely the question of the ‘past’. A people, he says, can only triumph over the ‘darkening of the world’ and decadence on condition of permanently wanting a destiny. However, it 'will only make a destiny if first it creates in itself a resonance, a possibility of resonance for this destiny, and if it understands its tradition in a creative way. All this implies that this people, as a proventual people, ex-poses itself in the original domain where being reigns, and thereby ex-posits there the provenance of the West, from the center of its pro-coming future’. It is necessary, in other words, ‘to re-seek the beginning of our spiritual being as proventual, to transform it into another beginning’. And Heidegger adds: ‘For a beginning to repeat itself, it is not a question of looking back to it as to something past, which now is known and which only has to be imitate, but it is necessary that the beginning be started again more originally, and that with all that a real beginning comprises of disconcerting, obscure and uncertain’. Indeed, 'the beginning is here. He is not behind us like he was a long time ago, but he is standing in front of us. The beginning broke into our future. He drives away his greatness that we must reach’.  ....  ...Paganism today is not about erecting altars to Apollo or resuscitating the cult of Odhinn. On the other hand, it implies looking for, behind religion, the ‘mental tools’ of which it is the product, to which interior universe it returns, what form of apprehension of the world it translates. In short, it implies considering the gods as ‘centers of values’ (H.R.Niebuhr), and the beliefs of which they are the object as systems: gods and beliefs pass, but values remain.   ...  ...the gods of paganism, is tolerant, because he is made up of all kinds of diversity. It even represents, one might say, the unique diversity of a being who does not have to exclude any otherness, any difference, because it encompasses and reconciles them all [“‘the All Other’ is One” is paganism is “the Perennial Philosophy”—transcendant overcoming of the Other by oneness of bying]. Fundamentally, the God of paganism is non-Other. On the contrary, the God of Judeo-Christian monotheism is alterity par excellence, he is the Any Other - and it is in this status of radical otherness that he claims to give himself that his danger lies.  (Alain de Benoist, “The Religion of Europe”)
