How does Christianity, an abstract concept, commit atrocities?

Niebelunglied and the Icelandic sagas (Eddas, Volsung).

Protip: it was Christians who preserved ancient culture in the monasteries while pagan Germanic people were sacking them. And atrocities committed by Christians are in no way exceptional compared to any other group of people throughout history.

Start with Varg Vikernes. He's an influential Nordic philosopher and might be over your head.

I don't think you are. By saying things like:

>Destruction of culture by Christianity
>Atrocities commited by Chrisianity tbroughout history

You know damn well what you're looking for. Sounds like your mind is already made up.

Although definitely not a book, it is a start after many arduous hours on Google:

The Karamazov Brothers I believe does include a discussion of the blood court at Verden as the Christian fall from Grace.

Yes. It's the knut hamsun of our days.

No forgetting that Dostoyevsky himself, of course, was a deeply religious and committed Christian.

Many thanks, any books I should read about the Christian subject you just said?

>>6273280
You got me.
Anything I should read that Varg read/probably read/would read?

I want to know more about about my Germanic culture and what Varg read that made him so pissed or atleast books that disprove his claims.

>>6273293
Very true but it's an opinion that I can't back up hence why I'm asking.

And, mind you, you'll still even claim a cultural superiority throughout history compared to the barbarians. Cake and eat and everything.
