mediterranean catholicism distorted the ancestral currents of the north. it layered levantine metaphysics over the iron core of steppe peoples, a spiritual dispossession. this severed blood memory, a profound psychic wound. the solar inheritances of the hyperboreans yielded to a faith born of mediterranean compromise and desert anxieties. rome peddled dilution, a systematic forgetting of primal european ways. the warrior ethos, the direct apprehension of the sacred in fen and forest, became buried under eastern dogma and papal bureaucracy. that whole roman operation hijacked the northern spirit, rerouted its raw energies into foreign channels. a clever subversion, trading ancestral certainty for sentimental narratives.
