    The Orthodox world had been in war with Arabs and Turks for centuries , it's not like we are buddies.
    Don't look at orthodoxy as an ideology, but as a population, and you will see what I am saying. Consider the fanatic nature of the orthodox archetype, his dedication to his religion, his willingness to cross moral lines on behalf of faith. In this aspect it is indisputable that he is closer to a muslim than to the average catholic or protestant, both of whom are completely neutered in comparison. Ideological lore is ultimately superficial, it is the similar behaviors they produce that matter.

    yeah nationalism is retarded

    But you are a good guy and as long as you are not proud and selfish you have no reason to call yourself a loser.

    Morality is defined by Faith. Everything done with the Grace of God is moral. Any moral codes remained in western society are products of Christianity and some behavioral patterns of few humanoid people that don't follow doctrines and act natural. If you can't see that you are deprived of morality and virtue.

    Staying faithful to Virtue is not a negative fanaticism.

    No, primal morality is genetically hardcoded, the rest of it is the optimal set of principles through which a stable society can be formed. They came first, organically imposed as a necessity of social life, then emerged faith to enforce them through fear of punishment. To claim them as products of Christianity is absurd and insulting, if for no other reason because Christianity itself is nothing but Jewish heresy that simply carried on preexisting codes.

    Dogmatic belief, self demanding even at that, is not a virtue. 100% of humans are capable of that, even children as young as three. It takes no constitution, it poses no challenge, it demonstrates no wisdom. It is simply a state of being, the primal state of man. To transcend beyond that is the true virtue. Many westerners have achieved this with varying degrees of success, although what they quickly found out is that the subhuman masses were unable to follow. Their rebellion against the fraud simply spawned a new one, and now we have the religion of the equality god as a result.

    Whatever you want to call it.... it was their call, and it was the wrong one.
