Byzantium’s Most Brutal and Inhumane Arena Spectacles

I don’t have much to say about the murder of Rob Reiner, the mass shooting at Brown University or the mass shooting of Jews by a Muslim at Bondi Beach in Australia.

We’re currently debating Nietzsche’s argument that the aristocratic and martial spirit of Rome was snuffed out by the poisonous slave morality of Christianity which made us weak and decadent. I blame modern liberalism for the things that White Nationalist pagans blame on Christianity.

Note: The first video below is a good illustration of what the Roman Empire was like after it converted to Christianity and the center of power shifted east to Constantinople. The second video is a good illustration of what Rome was like at its worst in the glory days of paganism.

  1. Few, if any, in the modern world know what Christianity is. The only church, I’m aware of, that has maintained its true identity, are the Primitive Baptists, and they are disregarded and looked down upon by other Baptists and mainline denominations. If what the modern world portrays as Christianity were accurate, the naysayers would be correct and we could all agree to fight against it.
    The modern, feminine, gay “Christian” church is fit only for hell. But Christ foretold it would end up this way. “The kingdom of heaven is like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal,till the whole was leavened,” (Matthew 13:33). Ignorant theologians tell us that means the kingdom starts small and overkill the world. That isn’t what it means at all.
    In the bible, leaven always represents false doctrine (see Mt 16:6, Gal 5:9, and 1 Cor 5:6). So be careful of the theologians and biblical scholars.
    Christ was warning us the church would go bad. And was He spot on. The church is nearly fully leavened and prepared for the oven.
    But the leavening of the church began early and by the fifth century the AntiChrist was fully established in the Roman Church. But a remnant remained true, and they were known as Paulikians, Albigensians, Cathari, Waldensians, among other names. These were they who were persecuted by the Roman Whore, and they were neither weak, nor gay, nor confused about their sex, but men and women who would not reject Christ or His Gospel, who were horribly persecuted, and joyfully died for His Namesake. God grant that we may meet persecution and death with the strength that they possessed.

    • Well said ACN. This is indeed part of a truth and the reason why the Papacy remains a threat to the Religion of Truth and Liberty (Christianity) and the Truth and Liberty of Europeans. But, even if a fallen ecclesiastical system has occurred within in it are the remnants of the faithful.

      Christ and the Apostles have taught us and were explicit about this, that the true Church, the Holy Invisible Universal Church, would never leave this earthly Kingdom. “For wherever two are more of the faithful are gathered there I Am.” It doesnt matter if it’s a cathedral, a small cabin, in the forest, a prison cell, a battlefield of gore, or the corrupted denominations of Christianjty, it remains and endures, even inside the Papacy. Even now, we have our friends there within. So keep the Faith.

    • Did Christianity cause the fall of Rome by turning the population into weak pacifists who yearned to be replaced? The answer is no.

      The Eastern Roman Empire survived for another thousand years. Nothing resembling liberalism ever took root there. The Byzantines tortured countless people to death. The worst incident described in the video was when Justinian had tens of thousands of people slaughtered in the Hippodrome

  2. Hmmm, I think Hunter is restrategizing and regrouping. Good.

    As a historian, I had briefly heard of this event, but thought it occurred in a theater and not a public spectacle and was a very random event. I was unaware of the sheer brutality of it which is horrendous. Yes, there were some deeply dark and twisted things in the Byzantine Empire. It ultimately proved fatal to it as thesenthings ate at the heart of his civilizational soul and made it difficult to fight against Islam and it’s many enemies. It should be a salutory lesson for us to not make the same mistakes.

  3. Full Verity means absolute truth. The truth, or this person version of the truth is we are all animals and there is no God. Salvation, The light of God comes through faith and faith alone, you must believe with all your heart in Christ to find God and the meaning of life.
