Norse Virtues
Doug Casey gives “two thumbs up” to The Passion of The Christ.
“When it comes down to moral values, it seems to me that Norse theology is far superior to Christian theology. The Norse virtues speak to nobility and heroism. Values like strength, honor, courage, pride, forthrightness, hospitality, steadfastness and the like, are admired. A proper Viking would see Christian virtues as contemptible vices. Meekness, mildness, benignity, faith, hope, charity, chastity, humility, etc. are habits to be inculcated in slaves. And, indeed, Christianity was viewed as a religion fit only for slaves, as it transformed itself from a localized Jewish cult.”
