I don't know about you guys, but I don't feel like we in the western world ever recovered from the fall of the western Roman empire despite the Renaissance or advances in technology. We don't have any long lasting continuing culture, everything in the west is cultureless and ugly, western Christianity is basically shit, our architecture is nothing but squares and rectangles, marijuana is illegal, music is shit, there's nothing to unify the west with a dignified commonality despite America and all western nation's being just clones of one another with only a language difference.
Look the orthodox Christian nation's, they have rich culture and a long continuation of traditions and are proud of themselves. If the western nation's and the ran Catholic church reconverted back to orthodoxy as was the religion of the west prior to the schism of 1054 AD we could have a culture again with beautiful art and architecture.

De Viris Illustribus Urbis Romae is a nice short-ish introduction to early Roman history(from Romulus to Augustus). Written around the 1700s so largely non-pozzed and drawing in large from what Romans themselves wrote(i.e Pliny), if you don't feel like delving straight into the latter or reading modern introductions filled with speculations. I've been reading it to practice my Latin but you can probably find some translations.

True. Christianity and Islam replaced the old Bronze Age religions of Europe and Mesopotamia. This was inevitable because these ancient religions no longer had as much meaning to the people who lived at the time. Just as the Bronze Age religions replaced the much earlier, more effeminate religions of the stone age.
And we are in an age of transition right now as well. Christianity and Islam no longer have much meaning for people as they did in the Iron Age. Thus they are in the process of being replaced by modern religions. These religions are disguised as ideologies. Communism, Democracy, Fascism, Liberalism, etc.
This is a process that has been going on for the last 100 years.

Not true, the things you trash are mostly jewish things, not European. You talk about boxy houses? The Bauhaus came from jewish marxist Russia where Walter Gropius learned what to do to bring the AWESOME European architecture down.
The music industry is jewish controlled, the European music ended with "classical" which means "the best" for a good reason.
There is more cultural divide in the west than just language, LOTS more, just shows how little experience you have with different nations.
Eastern Europe currently partially repels the invaders, but thats about it. Russia is a jewish imperial project not really in favor of whites per se. Many of the other states there suck from the European tit and the German market. Their "rich culture" is merely "remaining culture" as western Europe had more and better but got it bombed out of them.
Architecture prior 1054 AD was not really pretty, compare it to some medieval German towns like Rothenburg ob der Tauber starting around 1150 or Miltenberg around 1200.
(and don't forget: a LOT of the cool architecture in Eastern Europe was built by and for Germans, just later annexed when the Germans were violently removed.)

what we do know, though, we know with absolute certainty. Christ was an Israelite Hebrew. He preached against you and the pharasees. He told the truth about you, and you had him tortured and murdered. we know that He above all others have permanently affected you, and that you hate Him.
The facts are undeniable. You took over Judea and call yourselves "jews", but you never believed the religion of the Hebrews. your current cult consists of nothing more than a 2000yo set of arguments between yourselves, and color commentary on the people that believe in the real God.

We've been telling you guys that since 1055. All you have to do to re-join the Holy Synod (the council of bishops that meets twice a year to decide the direction for their respective jurisdictions) is get the Bishop of Rome (the pope) to relinquish his claim that he be the head of the Church worldwide.
Jesus is the head of our Church and the Bishops just represent him, each to a small portion of his followers.

Aryans had started worshipping Jewish Gods long before that. The Romans and the Greeks were completely ignorant about the concept of race. Yeah, they thought they knew something, but was so clueless they would not accept Germanic blood to rejuvenate their civilization. That came some centuries later when it forced itself and the Renaissance happened.
No problem with importing millions of sandniggers as slaves though and letting them mix with the population. Because there was nothing in their religions that commanded them to protect their blood.

You don't get it. Christianity is the root problem. Orthodoxy may be better than Catholicism, but it's just the lesser of two evils. Native Indo-European culture has been contaminated by Semitic Oriental cults, and THAT led to the collapse.
Rest assured, the fall would have come regardless, sooner or later: nothing lasts forever in this world. But Oriental cults (especially Christianity) have become endemic in the West, and thus any hope of genuine revival is hopeless until this cancer is extirpated.
You mention the Renaissance, and the core feature of that period was a revival of classical studies, the study of PAGAN, pre-Christian authors. Only by rediscovering classical pagan Antiquity we were able to shake off centuries of Christian obscurantism that led to the atrophication of culture and technology.

No, the world will never recover until there is once again a cohesive and comprehensive consensus of the truth. As it now stands, One version of reality used for this another to push for that, there are millions of versions of reality that are used more for deception than persuasion or science.
The unifying commonalities the OP speaks of dont come from music, marijuana, or geometry it comes from knowing the truth together and rejecting deception together as a society.
You cant use relativity to explain all of the unknown and then fall back to Newton when a tangible experiment that can be witnessed arises forever.

I am against xenophilia when it results in a degradation of your own culture and people; as it did with British nobles associating and glamourising the French, or with Americans historically doing much the same with the British. The Romans did the same thing with the Greeks (their supposed intellectual superiors) and the Germanics (their supposed physical superiors). Such self deprecation is unnatural, damaging and inspires literal traitors among your own. Today it manifests with Americans thinking niggers are superior athletes, or with liberal Swedes thinking that the religion and culture of Saudi Arabia is superior to that of Sweden, leading to an attack on their own kind and their own laws.
I used the example of Nip cartoons to portray 'us' in a good light, because in something like Helsing they contrast the English Protestant and Roman Catholic Vatican worlds in a way that is quite jarring when compared to the 'status quo' Japanese landscape. When we see our own lands and cultures presented through jewish media; it is always done in a way that makes it appear to be bland and boring, or out right bad. The Japanese endeavoured to highlight what they liked about it. That is fine, I like stuff about other cultures too; but do not degrade your own and do not wish for theirs to replace yours.
The OP is clearly implying that the modern West is bad, and that Rome was some golden age with none of the struggles we have today. I wanted to emphasise the beauty inherent in both Protestant and Catholic countries, whilst trying not to take away from anyone else. Anglos are often told they have no culture; but the truth is that a lot of their culture was so successful that it is now the norm in many areas of the world; I don't think that is a good thing by the way as I genuinely do like 'diversity'; but the point is that the suit and tie, the queue, saying please and thank you, shaking hands and a host of other things are cultural quirks that were either entirely absent or else manifested differently in different areas of the world until recently. There IS a culture there, you just struggle to see it because it has become so universal. It IS a beautiful culture (in some ways at least); you are just de-sensitised to it. Obviously there is a lot more to culture than that, but I was really just trying to destroy the OP's idiotic assertions that the West is some land of failure because of his jewish hatred for Christianity.

Classical Greece is the crowning achievement of mankind and nothing ever comes close. The Romans were smart enough to realize it. The Greeks single-handedly founded most fields of human endeavor and inquiry. Above all else, they invented deductive science, and Euclid's Elements is the second most printed book in history, the first one being the Bible (unfortunately). It is noteworthy that, while certain discoveries have been made more or less independently in various cultures around the world, there is no evidence of deductive science ever emerging in any culture that did not learn about it from the Greeks, either directly or indirectly. The mathematics of every civilaztion untouched by Greek culture was heuristic and without any standard of rigor. And one might argue that science is not everything, but at the root there is a more fundamental issue springing from the fact that the Greeks also invented philosophy as we conceive it: Euclid's systematic treatment of geometry is ultimately founded on a much more general mode of thinking which goes all the way back to Aristotle's Posterior Analytics. The Greeks, more than anyone else, cultivated logic and critical thinking. Their intellectuals often questioned traditional religion and other established customs, and even when not atheist they at least had a more rational and deistic view of God. Oriental cults, on the other hand, glorify unquestioning belief, blind faith: they breed a people of superstitious men easily controlled by the authority of the priestly castes. "Just have faith, and you will be saved!" Just trust me, goyim.
>in something like Helsing
The whole plot of Hellsing revolves around killing evil Nazi vampires. Not sure how such a mainstream scenario can help your point. The Protestants and the Catholics may have their differences but in the end they're united in the struggle against Nazi vampirism. It's all quite shallow and I wouldn't be surprised if someone from Hollywood wrote somehting like that.
The Japs tend to fetishize and idolize the West just as much as weeaboos fetishize Japanese culture. They know very little about it and the grass is always greener on the other side.
>The OP is clearly implying that the modern West is bad, and that Rome was some golden age with none of the struggles we have today. I wanted to emphasise the beauty inherent in both Protestant and Catholic countries
Rome might now have been heaven on earth, but it was surely better than what we have today, at least in its apogee. And there is no beauty in Christianity. Christianity stiffles critical thought (which is what allowed the Greco-Romans to achieve so much). "There is only one god and you can't question it!" Polytheism has always had a better potential for critical thinking since it is open to new deities and new approaches to religion without excluding possibilities of self-correction. Christianity is built on dogmas, and dogmas are the death of reason.
