Literature is better off thanks to Christianity because if it wasn't for the anti-Christian Renaissance, art would have always remained a sacred and divine activity instead of an increasingly profane and atomised hobby.

Uh oh, it turns out that what I personally consider valuable is not compatible with the iron laws of cause and effect. As a result, I will have to forfeit my life, which I apparently did not consider valuable enough.

I said the series was good, just that the fanbase is cringe at times

Alright grandpa. Go take your meds now.

Your Raskolnikov example debunks your very point though - from what you have said, we can conclude that might is indeed NOT right, certainly not for everyone. Following that principle seems to have resulted in disaster for Raskolnikov, so it certainly cannot be deemed universal.

Your endless confusion of form with its content is as empty as it is boring. Strictly speaking, no religion is """true""", whatever that means in your delusional head. What is true is the principle which creates the form and serves as its content. The principle is the only thing that matters and the only spiritual factor. The form is just a vessel. When the form is given absolute priority, like you Christian polemicists do, there reigns absolute untruth, materialism and vicious, egoic will to power.

I've been there too, anon. I, too, was a white zoomer who wrote rap lyrics once upon a time. The thing is though, not only is larping as a thug rather worthless, but you won't even look like a thug - you will look like a clown instead. You'll see one day.

Is this true according to Germanic paganism? I was under the impression that once the final battle is lost, it is lost forever.
>Stop wanting. Nothing more.
What do you mean by this? Stop wanting to live righteously?

So how would you answer my question then? Their job is to keep trying until they fail and are destroyed?

This is maybe the worst thread on /lit/ right now. Thanks for making such a low effort, stupid question OP.

Why are so many things fun to read but extremely boring to write? I spent a lot of time planning this first chapter and I think the structure is very well polished insofar as reader experience is concerned, but I can't be bothered to write it. The idea of writing it bores me. It is off-putting. Not fun. Is it just a me problem? Are writers supposed to write things that are not fun to write, that are boring to write, that are dreadful to write? Or am I just missing something?

Fuck off libertardians. You will never establish any "order" because all you people agree on is that the ravenous private interests of corporations precede the common good in importance.

Ngl, seeing this shilled constantly went a great way to weaning me off of Christianity, especially given that I was introduced to the Traditionalists at around the same time I started seeing this passage and that euros already have eminent spiritual traditions of their own...

I know nothing about that man, but suddenly I am overcome by the urge to find and hug him.
