for <em>The American Mercury</em></p>
<p>WHAT WAS William Luther Pierce (pictured) really trying to accomplish? How did he want to change the world? What was his plan for organizing White people, which Jewish groups have called so &#8220;hateful&#8221; and which a growing number of White Americans and Europeans call inspiring and necessary? On today&#8217;s installment of our audio book series based on <em>The Fame of a Dead Man&#8217;s Deeds</em> by Robert S. Griffin, read by Vanessa Neubauer, we&#8217;re going to find out.</p>
<p><a href="https://theamericanmercury.org/tag/the-fame-of-a-dead-mans-deeds/">Click here for all the chapters of this book that we&#8217;ve published so far</a>.</p>
<p>Today&#8217;s chapter, entitled &#8220;Pierce&#8217;s Vision&#8221; is a succinct and powerful summary of how William Pierce saw the world, saw the decline and degeneracy of his own people, and determined what was needed to restore that people to health and sanity.</p>

<p>Today we rejoin Vanessa Neubauer in her reading of this week&#8217;s installment, chapter 27, of Professor Robert S. Griffin&#8217;s masterful biography of Dr. William Luther Pierce, <em>The Fame of a Dead Man&#8217;s Deeds</em>.</p>
<p>How did Dr. Pierce, an American scientist and academic, come to found the most influential racial-nationalist organization in America? What were his goals? To what extent did he succeed? Listen in to this fascinating intellectual journey by pressing the play button above (or at the end of this article).</p>
<p>This audio book will be published in regular chapter installments on <em>The American Mercury</em> and will be available from the <em>Mercury</em> as a full-length audio book when the series is completed.</p>
<p>One of the most original &#8212; and controversial &#8212; thinkers of the 20th century was White nationalist, novelist, and founder of a new European religion, Cosmotheism, Dr. William L. Pierce.</p>
<p>The only real biography of Dr. Pierce is Professor Robert S. Griffin&#8217;s<i> <a href="https://cosmotheistchurch.org/product/the-fame-of-a-dead-mans-deeds-an-up-close-portrait-of-white-nationalist-william-pierce-by-robert-s-griffin/">The Fame of a Dead Man&#8217;s Deeds</a></i>, which was published in 2001. This week we continue with the 27th chapter &#8212; &#8220;Pierce&#8217;s Vision&#8221; &#8212; of the book. Experience William Pierce, the writer, the philosopher, the radical &#8212; and the builder of an intentional White community in the mountains of West Virginia &#8212; just as Robert Griffin experienced him, by pressing the play button now.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="post-bodycopy clearfix">
<p>A MORE THAN casual look at The Environmental Movement shows it to be mostly a facade of noisy rhetoric. If the speechifying is largely surrealistic, the problems are real. Basic resources for industry, as well as exotic ones, are getting scarcer. Cheap oil is a thing of the past. Even if there are no real shortages at the moment, unlimited growth is a mathematical absurdity. Nothing is growing so fast as the population of the Third World nations. Neither governments nor professional ecologists offer more than symbolic solutions.</p>
<p>As the Sierra Club Bulletin (October 1975) summed it up: &#8220;In the ten-year span from 1960 to 1970, Americans alone consumed more raw materials and energy than were used by <em>all of mankind</em> before 1960,&#8221;</p>
<p>Rather than review all the frightening statistics, which has been done over and over again, it might be worthwhile to consider first what kind of mentality caused them. If we listen to the shamans of minority racism, we will hear the blame pinned on &#8220;the culture of white, Western masculinity&#8221; (Theodore Roszak, <em>Where the Wasteland Ends</em>). There is an iota of truth here. Many of the leading polluters are indeed white males of Teutonic or Celtic descent. But the principal culprit is Commercial Man, a cultureless, raceless, unisex creature, who has purged himself of all ethnic feelings and devoted his whole being to the exchange of goods and services.</p>
<p>Commercial Man is not going to solve the environmental problems because he is the cause of them. He did not invent the modern technology which amplifies them, but he is the one who utilizes technology to turn everything in sight into goods and money. Science started out as the hobby of eccentrics. It was only in the nineteenth century that Commercial Man really took notice of the science kooks and decided there was unlimited wealth in store for those who could exploit science. A few geniuses like Edison and Henry Ford straddled both worlds and became legends in their own times.</p>
<p>The great fallacy of the ecology-minded is that modern technology is the key factor in environmental degradation. Technology is a factor, but irrigation and the stone axe could also do the job, as any serious study of the ancient world quickly reveals. Of course today&#8217;s advanced technology provides fantastic leverage for human stupidity. The scientists and engineers who created it are unfortunately lacking in the mental scope or emotional maturity needed to utilize such power properly. All they know is to speed up the growth demanded by Commercial Man. Konrad Lorenz has compared the situation to cancer (<em>Civilized Man&#8217;s Eight Deadly Sins</em>). This is a perfectly valid simile, since the cancer cell has lost the ability to function cooperatively in the organism. It multiplies and multiplies and the malignancy grows and grows. The tumor fattens until the organism dies. Faith healers report that they have persuaded some cancers to reform in their own best interest. What are the chances of our social cancer coming to its senses? Very little. Antibodies are needed, not gentle persuasion.</p>
<p>Commercial Man cannot do anything meaningful to prevent this planet from being plundered and destroyed because very candidly that is his entire reason for being. In his socialistic, humanitarian garb his goal is to maximize the tonnage of human protoplasm on the earth and to provide these quivering masses of hominid tissue with goods and services. Optimizing the process is outside his scope; in fact it is antagonistic to his values and his way of thinking. His outlook on life is so one-dimensional that he offers only stopgap solutions for problems caused by his mindless quest for more of everything. Replication is his forte, not creativity. A billion mediocre things are better than one good one.</p>
<p>The mania for quantity and production has made efficiency a virtue. High efficiency means rigid stability. Natural processes operate at about ten percent efficiency. As efficiency rises above this level, the ability of a mechanism to adjust to changes declines dramatically. Lessons like this are totally lost on Commercial Man.</p>
<p>Commercial Man, in fact, is a creature of all humanity. He can be an Anglo-Saxon liberal member of the Junior Chamber of Commerce, a de-ethnicized American Jew, an overseas Chinese, a Hindu in Africa, a multiracial <em>comprador</em> in Latin America. His camp followers are the bureaucrats and intellectuals who sometimes claim to be his enemies, but are more appropriately his heirs.</p>
<p>The essence of Commercial Man has loomed over very diverse societies – the Third Reich, liberal America, the People&#8217;s Republic of China, the Soviet Union, Israel and the United Arab Republic. Having existed for a long time, longer than historical records, he serves a useful purpose, but becomes a serious problem when his is the dominant class.</p>
<p>Reading between the lines of liberal-minority environmentalists reveals their solution consists of eliminating technology, in part by downgrading white nations and eliminating white scientists and engineers. Since the Chinese, Japanese and other Asiatics have plenty of good engineers and plenty of good Commercial Men, the disappearance of whites will by no means signify the end of industrialism. If anything, what will vanish will be any and all restraints on industrial expansion. The world will not return to being a beautiful wilderness inhabited by noble savages. Instead it will be covered by an endless <em>favela</em> teeming with rats, lice, roaches and nonwhites. There is no way of telling how long this global squalor will endure before the last so-called human creature perishes. Probably not too long.</p>
<p>With little doubt Commercial Man&#8217;s days are numbered, just as they were in classical times. The only serious question is whether there are any alternatives to the world <em>favela</em>.</p>
<p>A return to the true values of the West would entail a rejection of the false and hypocritical humanitarianism of Commercial Man. The population explosion in the Third World would be halted. Each nation would eventually have the population it could support at whatever level it deemed suitable for itself. National liberation in the Third World would also mean national responsibility instead of anti-white racism. The liberal is indeed a perverse being who wants to destroy his own race and society, but only after he has made the rest of mankind just like him. He will be gone, thankfully, and this alone will make the earth a better, cleaner, healthier place to live.</p>
<p>With other nations and peoples pursuing their own destinies, the Majority could turn its attention to much needed self-improvement. Marginal souls could be discouraged from having children and the childbearing of those with genetic potential would be encouraged. Without racial antagonisms and recriminations, government could be used for solving social problems, instead of treating the symptoms and breeding the causes. Welfare budgets would decline. Freedom would be available to those who wanted it and security would be there for those who valued it more highly than freedom. An increasing ratio of brighter people would supply the drive to keep such a system going.</p>
<p>An unculled herd deteriorates. This is why we have suffered genetic decay. Society in contrast to nature selects not the best for massive reproduction, but the very worst. The poorest and least successful among us have the largest families, so the liberal democrats have the strongest voting blocs.</p>
<p>The gene pool of a race is not stationary. It changes with every generation. Without information inputs from the environment, such as differential reproduction rates and infant mortality, the race will deteriorate. Since we have reproduction rates favoring the worst of our own race, not to mention the worst of the blacks, things are getting bad very fast. This is what Elmer Pendell said in <em>Sex and Civilization</em>, and what has been known for thousands of years to animal breeders. It is formally demonstrable in the quasi-mathematical communications theory. Those who don&#8217;t understand the dynamics of genetic decay have been born into the wrong universe and had better find another one for their next reincarnation.</p>
<p>The nobility of the Middle Ages maintained large forest areas, despite a growing need for more agricultural land. Part of the motivation was the sport of hunting and varieties of game for the table; part was the need for a supply of lumber and other forest products. If the barons and earls allowed all the trees to be cut, there would be more, not fewer, hungry peasants and no game or wood for anybody.</p>
<p>The contrasting survival styles of different people is reflected in domestic animals. The dog is like the average Third Worlder. He breeds promiscuously and copiously until there are no more scraps and garbage to feed him. His cousin the wolf acts more like the nobleman. Commercial Man acts like vermin.</p>
<p>If we are not to sink into the mainstream of humanity and then out of sight, a small but influential portion of us must somehow move the rest off their collision course with the second law of thermodynamics (genetic entropy). Technology must be utilized to improve man, not tailor the world for increasing numbers of hard-to-feed bipeds.</p>
<p>The world&#8217;s mineral resources are fast disappearing. So are the genetic advantages of the American Majority. If we continue to tolerate the liberal, the bureaucrat, the financial manipulator and our own aimless whimsy, if we who know better continue to be the servants of Commercial Man, we will not only be his gravedigger but our own.</p>

</em></p>
<p>translated by H.L. Mencken</p>
<p><a href="https://theamericanmercury.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/antichrist-friedrich-nietzsche-translated-h-l-mencken.pdf">THIS BOOK</a> BELONGS to the most rare of men. Perhaps not one of them is yet alive. It is possible that they may be among those who understand my &#8220;Zarathustra&#8221;: how could I confound myself with those who are now sprouting ears? – First the day after tomorrow must come for me. Some men are born posthumously.</p>
<p>The conditions under which anyone understands me, and necessarily understands me – I know them only too well. Even to endure my seriousness, my passion, he must carry intellectual integrity to the verge of hardness. He must be accustomed to living on mountain tops – and to looking upon the wretched gabble of politics and nationalism as beneath him. He must have become indifferent; he must never ask of the truth whether it brings profit to him or a fatality to him&#8230; He must have an inclination, born of strength, for questions that no one has the courage for; the courage for the forbidden; predestination for the labyrinth. The experience of seven solitudes. New ears for new music. New eyes for what is most distant. A new conscience for truths that have hitherto remained unheard. And the will to economize in the grand manner – to hold together his strength, his enthusiasm&#8230; Reverence for self; love of self; absolute freedom of self&#8230;.</p>
<p>Very well, then! Of that sort only are my readers, my true readers, my readers foreordained: of what account are the rest? – The rest are merely humanity. – One must make one&#8217;s self superior to humanity, in power, in loftiness of soul, – in contempt.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>by H. Millard</p>
<p>THE EAGLE swooped down and said to the Cockroach, &#8220;You are a despicable creature and you are hated by humans. You live everywhere, you eat anything, and you breed like crazy.</p>
<p>&#8220;I, on the other hand, am loved by humans. I am so noble and beautiful that many humans use me as a symbol for themselves and their nations.&#8221;</p>
<p>The Cockroach replied, &#8220;I don&#8217;t care what humans think of me. They are not my kind. I don&#8217;t exist for their pleasure. You think you&#8217;re noble and above me in the big scheme of things? You&#8217;re a fool. You and your kind are dying out. You only eat certain things. You only live in certain places. You don&#8217;t breed enough. You are not a symbol worth copying. You are death walking.</p>
<p>&#8220;All individuals die. I will die. You will die. The difference is, Mr. Big Shot Eagle, that I will live on in the many offspring that I have brought into the world who have my DNA Code within them. When you die, you will cease to exist and your DNA Code will die with you. You might as well not have lived at all.</p>
<p>&#8220;However, it is not you or I as the individuals that we see every day in our normal lives that are most important, Mr. Eagle. It is, in the first instance, the Core DNA Code within that is truly important. It is the Core DNA Code that has transformed so-called non-living minerals into what we know as life. All life is the manifestation of the Core DNA Code and its particular variants that make each of us different in our everyday reality. So, in the second instance, what is truly important to each form of life is its particular variant of the Cord DNA Code. Your DNA Code variant makes you a particular type of Eagle, mine makes me a Cockroach.</p>
<p>&#8220;Some particular DNA Code variants produce dead-end creatures like you, Mr. Eagle, who have specific adaptations, and such creatures are always on the verge of dying out as we live in a dynamic universe where everything changes because everything is moving. Such creatures cannot compete when changes happen.</p>
<p>&#8220;And, some particular DNA Code variants produce dead-end creatures like my kind who have general adaptations. Now, bear with me, Mr. Eagle, and I will explain why we are both dead-enders in our own ways. It is a sad knowledge that I possess for both of us.</p>
<p>&#8220;We Cockroaches do eat just about anything (and relish it all) and we do live just about anywhere (and are very comfortable) and we do produce many more just like us (gotta love those children) as we expand our particular DNA code. We are the survivors, but we are also trapped, Mr. Eagle. You and your kind are losers because you cannot genetically adapt to ever-changing conditions so you can survive and prosper. We Cockroaches, on the other hand, are losers precisely because we can survive without having to genetically adapt. You see the problem, do you not? No? Well, I will explain in due course</p>
<p>&#8220;Now, Mr. Eagle, you spoke of humans, so here&#8217;s something about them and especially about White humans. Many of them are ignorant of the ways of existence, and they, like you, fail to see that they must adapt and they must breed like us Cockroaches if they are to survive as a distinct life form and if they are to ever fulfill their highest possible destiny which, ironically, is to go extinct as they are now and to become a new species of human that is incapable of breeding with the other kinds of humans that still walk the Earth long after they would have died off had White humans not intervened to feed them and to medicate them and take care of them, just as they are taking care of you and your kind, Mr. Eagle.</p>
<p>&#8220;We Cockroaches know, with a cosmic sadness, that while we have survived for millions of years pretty much unchanged, that we are not the end all and be all of evolution, and it is precisely because we haven&#8217;t had to change that is our problem. We are both trapped, Mr. Eagle. Your kind will die out. My kind will continue to live, but we won&#8217;t evolve. We&#8217;re perfect as we are. We long for challenges that will force our particular DNA Code to change in order for us to survive so that we can become more, so that we will become more intelligent and more conscious, but we continue to meet all challenges without evolving. It is sad, in the long run.</p>
<p>&#8220;You see, Mr. Eagle, evolution requires change, not stability. Mr. Eagle, you will go extinct &#8212; truly extinct &#8212; because you are not able to evolve to meet changing conditions because of your special adaptations. And, we Cockroaches will not go extinct, for the same reason &#8212; we cannot change to a higher form, because we are perfectly capable of meeting most changes in the environment just as we are.</p>
<p>&#8220;But, back to White humans, Mr. Eagle. The hope of expanding and improving their particular DNA Code lies with those few White humans, who have the so-called &#8216;racist gene&#8217; and the brains to understand these things and who can consciously adapt and evolve <em>if</em> they do the right things. It is this sub-set of White humans &#8212; the ones with the so-called racist gene &#8212; who will break out of the trap and who will <em>will their own evolution</em>, and who will go extinct as they are so that they can transform themselves into a new species that is just a little bit stronger, a little bit healthier, and a little bit smarter than other humans.</p>
<p>&#8220;You see, the White humans with the so-called racist gene have already started changing from other White people. They have a mutated gene that will lead to other mutations, and if they breed like us Cockroaches, they will spread their mutations to other White family lines. Oh, they look just like other White humans, but that&#8217;s the way it is with most mutations &#8212; they are subtle and often internal, but they are also <em>very real</em>. Their major survival advantage is that their racist gene helps them avoid miscegenation and even close contact with darker humans. These mutations are changing the particular DNA Code that they have just a few letters at a time, but the ramifications are going to be Earth-shattering if all goes as we Cockroaches believe they will in the fullness of time.</p>
<p>&#8220;And, these few ones, the White ones with the so-called racist gene &#8212; have the power to bring about their own further mutations. They have a plasticity of their DNA Code that is part of their mutation, and they just need the information on how to use that plasticity to make the right changes. They need to know how to use their minds to will their own evolution in the right direction.</p>
<p>&#8220;It is these White humans, the ones with the so-called racist gene, that are on the threshold to a new type of human that will be born from them. These new humans, this new species, will eat just about anything, live just about anywhere, and they will breed their kind like we Cockroaches breed our kind &#8212; but the difference is that they will be able to use their brains to keep evolving ever higher.</p>
<p>&#8220;You look at me, Mr. Eagle, and wonder how I know these things about Destiny, and I say to you, there is more to existence than you or I will ever understand, but I tell you that what I know, I know, and it is true and this knowledge comes from that which brought somethingness to the nothingness and which programmed that first molecule of DNA &#8212; that cornucopia of life itself &#8212; to endlessly and tirelessly bring forth and tinker with life in order to eventually fill all of existence with a life form that understands the meaning of existence and which is the master of all of existence and which is as a god to creatures that have not evolved to such a level.&#8221;</p>

<p>ARMAN SPOKE, SAYING: We are different, some of us, I am convinced; at least those of us who instinctively understand, or who are easily awakened to the White truth with very little prodding.</p>
<p>We who know, know in our bones that we Whites must remain separate and even isolated in order to evolve along the best trajectory for us. This knowledge is as much a part of our genetic code as is the color of our skin.</p>
<p>We know that we must not mix with other types of humans and that doing so will cause our genocide and extinction.</p>
<p>We may not all understand the <em>science</em> of why we must remain separate, but we <em>know</em> this is the case and we know that we <em>must not miscegenate</em>. Some of us might simply say that we want our children to look like us and leave it at that. But, what this really means is that we know that we must breed only with our own kind, because that is <em>how</em> we have children who look like us. And, this is as it should be and is the right strategy for the survival of us as individuals, for the survival of our family lines, and for the survival of our people as a whole.</p>
<p>But some folks new to our thinking may want to know more about <em>why</em> we should not mix and blend in with the others and why we must avoid gene transfer. The quick answer is that we have a DNA code within us. It is the blueprint or recipe to build a White person. Some of us believe that this DNA code is sacred in all its parts and must be preserved and expanded. We like to think of this DNA code as being somewhat similar to the concept of <em>soul</em> in that it is the <em>real us</em>, and we, as the manifested human beings we see in the mirror are what it has spun out and maintains.</p>
<p>We must digress a little at this point for a fuller explanation. We believe that there is a core DNA code that is the same in all organisms. We say it started as a single DNA molecule that formed and was able to make the leap from so-called non-living minerals to what we call life. The core DNA code doesn&#8217;t care which type of organism or organisms win the struggle for survival. It just wants to fill all of existence with itself. Its program says <em>find a way to survive, expand, make life</em>. We sometimes visualize this core DNA code as being like an unchanging nucleus or hub at the center of all life. Although the core code always remains the same and always has those same basic commands &#8212; survive, expand, make life &#8212; it fulfills its commands by creating a great variety of organisms which all carry the same basic core DNA code but which are adapted to different environmental niches. We see humans as one of the organisms that was eventually produced by this process, but we do <em>not</em> see humans as the final product, because <em>there is no final product</em>. The process will continue forever.</p>
<p>Because living organisms require energy to survive, and because they must transform so-called non-living minerals into the substance of their bodies, and because existence requires movement, a struggle and conflict in existence is established as a natural law. This is part of our reality and we must understand that this struggle and conflict permeates existence and is necessary. We need to learn to love the struggle and conflict and we must learn to compete better.</p>
<p><strong>The human genetic code</strong></p>
<p>The genetic code for humans has 46 chromosomes, and (at last count) 20,000 genes. That code is one with us and we are one with it. When we mate, we pass on 23 of our chromosomes that contain about half of our genes. Our mate also passes on 23 of his or her chromosomes with half of his or her genes. Bake for nine months in the womb and then the resultant child will be born with the 46 chromosomes and 20,000 genes that are normal for our species. If the two parents are White, the child will be a 100% by-the-recipe White person. So, right away you can see that if you mate with those who look like you, the child will also look like you, but if you mate with people of another race, the child will only have 23 chromosomes and 10,000 genes from you and your White race, but will also have 23 chromosomes and 10,000 genes from another race. Such a mixed child <em>cannot</em> be authentically White, no matter what he or she looks like, simply because it does not have 46 White chromosomes and 20,000 White genes. It is more complicated, but this is the basic idea.</p>
<p><strong>Born &#8220;racist&#8221;</strong></p>
<p>You&#8217;ve probably heard some people say that we Whites are born &#8220;racist.&#8221; Others have said that we have a &#8220;racist gene.&#8221; We think they&#8217;re right, at least for some of us who are the lucky ones of the White race to have born with this so-called racist gene, because we see it as a mutation, and one that is positive and builds into us a desire to remain White. It helps us survive as Whites. In other words, it&#8217;s not really a racist gene, it is a <em>survival</em> gene that gives us a heightened awareness of <em>who is us</em> and <em>who is not us</em>.</p>
<p>This special part of our genetic program that we were born with, whether it&#8217;s an actual gene or genes or some other part of our DNA code &#8212; again, call it a mutation &#8212; truly is a survival mechanism for our particular genetic code. It helps keep it on the right evolutionary path. It helps us survive as we are and as we should be. Even with all the present Dark Age societal conditioning pressures to have Whites blend themselves away in the non-White masses, those of us with the so-called racist gene mutation resist, and know instinctively that to blend ourselves away is evil and that it will lead to the genocide and extinction of many Whites who were not lucky enough to have been born with this survival mutation.</p>
<p>We must, however, distinguish between those of us with the mutation who are exactly as Nature intends us to be and some Whites who come to their so-called racist views via hatred or misinformation or conditioning to become &#8220;racist.&#8221;</p>
<p>As you know, many Whites were once conditioned to be so-called racists. Not all of them had the mutation that we have. So, when the times changed, and when racial separation, which was once widely accepted, suddenly became thought of as no longer acceptable, some of these once staunch so-called racists were conditioned anew &#8212; they were reprogrammed with anti-racist, and even self-hatred thoughts, and many just lapped it up. And, like smokers who give up smoking and become the most vehement opponents of smoking, these former so-called racists, in some cases, became the most vehement opponents of so-called racism. Why did they break that way? Because they lacked the so-called racist gene. Their original racism was part of their cultural conditioning, not part of their essence, and, when the culture changed, the conditioning changed &#8212; and so did they. These are the Whites among us who are like Pavlov&#8217;s dogs on two feet.</p>
<p>My guess is that those of us with the racist gene don&#8217;t usually have a lot of hate for other peoples (unless we or someone we know has been victimized in some way by some of these others) and that we are mostly just indifferent toward them. They are not our people and they are not our concern. They have their destiny and we have ours. They are not part of our lives and we like that just fine. Some of us also believe that we are not to interfere with the trajectory they are on, unless it negatively impacts our own trajectory. If they die off, that is Nature&#8217;s way.</p>
<p>How far widespread is our racist gene in the White community? We don&#8217;t know. But in time we may find out, because Whites who lack it miscegenate and destroy their family lines, while the ones who have it don&#8217;t miscegenate. In the future, all Whites then alive may be related to those of us with the so-called racist gene, because they may be the only Whites still alive &#8212; all others may have blended themselves back into the dark masses and ceased to be White.</p>
<p><strong>Our revealed destiny</strong></p>
<p>Our revealed destiny is to evolve into the next type of human being. We Whites are on the threshold, and so long as we do not have gene transfer with other types of humans and if we follow the Teachings, we will move ever closer to making the leap. And once the leap is made we will have many benefits. We will no longer be able to breed with other humans. We will live longer, healthier, happier lives. We will just <em>know</em> things as our intelligence rises. We will have new general adaptations that make us the fittest type for all environmental niches that are right for our species. Eventually, and if we are righteous, we will, through natural selection and the other fundamental forces of evolution and Nature, replace all other humans simply because that is the way existence works. It is a truism that the end result of the evolution of any organism is the extinction of the old and the birth of the new from out of the old.</p>
<p>It is not predestined that we Whites will be the ones to replace the old humans. We have reached a point in evolution where we must use our brains to <em>direct</em> our evolution. It is by doing this that we are most likely to be the ones who win the evolution competition.</p>
<p>Evil are those who try to carry other humans and who help them survive and escape their trajectories. Just as individual organisms die, so too do entire species of organisms die, and this is the goal of evolution &#8212; to replace earlier forms that are less fit with new models that are more fit. These workings of Nature will continue whether we believe as we believe or not, and <em>some</em> organism &#8212; some human type &#8212; <em>will</em> move to the winner&#8217;s circle of evolution. We say that we want that to be our kind of organism, and we say that we can make it so by living consciously and by guiding our evolution along the revealed path. This is our faith. This is our way. We are different, and we want the differences to increase in positive ways.</p>
<p><strong>Why won&#8217;t Whites awaken?</strong></p>
<p>We often hear some Whites complaining that other Whites are not waking up and aren&#8217;t seeing the truth. Well, could it be, as we&#8217;ve said above, that many of these other Whites simply lack our mutation? Can it be that many are like people who are color blind and can&#8217;t see certain colors? And, here, we don&#8217;t mean color blind in the colloquial sense of not seeing different races, but in the literal medical sense of not being able to see reds or some other colors. Why are they this way? It is because of their DNA code. They can&#8217;t see certain colors because their DNA won&#8217;t allow them to see them. They lack the genetic ability to do so. So it is with those Whites who cannot see our truths. They lack our ability to see what we so plainly see.</p>
<p>But you shouldn&#8217;t complain about Whites who can&#8217;t awaken. What do you want them to do if they awaken? Do you want them to carry you, because you are too timid to take action yourself? Are you incapable of taking individual responsibility such that you won&#8217;t follow the Teachings unless you&#8217;re in a crowd? Do you lack self-reliance? Do you have low self-esteem? Get over these negatives. How many people who are awake does it take to make changes? It only takes one. You as an individual have an individual responsibility to do what is right and to fight evil. You do not need to wait for others to awaken to somehow validate you and your beliefs. Stand alone, but always be willing to join with others who can also stand alone for what is right.</p>
<p>You have a personal and an individual responsibility to spread your DNA code that contains our differences so that eventually it will replace the DNA code of those who are weak seeds. And, when you reproduce correctly, you increase the chance that the Ones To Come will be born. Yes, we are looking for ever more mutations among our kind that will further us along the path. The more White children you produce, the greater is the chance that the foretold mutations will occur and spread.</p>
<p>You also have a responsibility to find and awaken those of our people who <em>do</em> have the differences we have, but who simply haven&#8217;t been exposed to the truth. However, it is not your responsibility to try <em>too</em> hard to awaken others. Those who have our differences, once exposed to the truth, will quickly awaken &#8212; while those who lack our differences will not. Present our truth in kind and compassionate ways, and those who have our differences will understand.</p>
<p>Thousands of years ago there weren&#8217;t <em>any</em> White people. Then, we automatically mutated and we evolved and we did so in order to have a survival advantage in the dimly lit lands of Europe.</p>
<p>Now, we need to evolve again. Now we need to evolve into a new species <em>that can no longer bear children with other forms of humans</em>. That is our highest destiny and that is the path that only we can take. And some of us believe that is the path that takes us closer to the First Cause of existence itself.</p>

<p>&#8220;MANY WHITE FOLKS, even those with some White consciousness, still don&#8217;t get it about Arman&#8217;s teachings and their own existence,&#8221; said Homeless Jack.</p>
<p>&#8220;If they did understand more, they&#8217;d be stronger in their beliefs about their Whiteness and would live happier more fulfilled lives.</p>
<p>&#8220;Some Whites talk about race and racial differences but they start too far downstream to really understand our place in existence and why we must follow Arman&#8217;s teachings to survive, expand and evolve as White people. Arman says that his teachings are really Nature&#8217;s teachings and are written throughout all of existence for those who can read them, and that they were set in motion when existence began.</p>
<p>&#8220;I want to be clear about this, man. Arman is very humble about the teachings because he says they&#8217;re not really his teachings, and that he&#8217;s just the one who is trying to put them in words that can be easily understood. He says he isn&#8217;t even comfortable with them being given the collective name Armanism, as some have done, and he only reluctantly accepts that name until a more fitting one evolves.</p>
<p>&#8220;Arman teaches the proper bedrock foundations of existence that come right from the way existence works, man. And, when one truly understands, one can never have one&#8217;s faith shaken about why we must remain White people, and why we must do what we must do, and why we must separate from all other peoples, and why we must never miscegenate, and why we must raise our individual birth rate as high as our bodies will permit.</p>
<p>&#8220;And, as I already said, man, Arman teaches the way for us to live happy and fulfilled lives while being fully aware of who and what we are, while at the same time abandoning misguided personal efforts to deny our existence as White people. Arman says too many of us try to be less White lest we offend non-Whites, and that this is a serious error in our thinking. Arman says we should just be indifferent to other peoples who are not our people. We should not interfere in their destinies no matter what, so long as we are not affected. And we should concentrate on our own highest destiny &#8212; which is what Arman teaches. We must be for ourselves alone and for no others.</p>
<p>&#8220;Arman&#8217;s teachings give us the freedom to be truly, authentically, and unapologetically White, and to love ourselves as we were born, every minute of our lives &#8212; without unnecessarily bragging about it.</p>
<p>&#8220;Arman also says that <em>our genetic code and our religion are one</em>.</p>
<p>&#8220;Some White folks with a preliminary level of White consciousness will talk about hating other racial groups. Some also have overly idealized images in their minds about so-called &#8216;wonderful White culture and White civilized ways.&#8217; These are often partly based on the belief that we Whites had various golden ages in the past.</p>
<p>&#8220;In addition, some of these beliefs are founded in the religious beliefs and mores from the desert religions as they have been modified over the centuries. Many of these things are just layered on like a thin veneer and are not only <em>not</em> essential to who and what we are, but some are holding us back from our own survival, expansion, and evolution. They limit us, man. Some make us dour sourpusses, afraid of life and afraid to have children and to be who and what we are. We should be full of joy and be ever-expansive, man, <em>not</em> full of hate and negativity.</p>
<p>&#8220;Arman says false beliefs must be stripped away so we can get to the essentials of what being authentically White really means if we are to consciously evolve in the best way for ourselves. We are alone, man. No other peoples are like us. We must not allow ourselves to be blended in with other types of humans. That is devolution. We are a later evolutionary branching of the human type, but false beliefs are putting us in danger of extinction as the genocide against us is now widespread and there is an ever-increasing danger of gene transfer from other types of humans to us.</p>
<p>&#8220;When asked to tell what he teaches in just a few words, Arman sometimes replies: &#8216;I teach the way existence works.&#8217;</p>
<p>&#8220;And, Arman has indicated that the essential parts of existence are the spinning, turning, spiraling forces of Nature. Without these forces there would be no existence. It is these forces that create, maintain and destroy everything. But, let&#8217;s not dwell on them, here, man, other than to acknowledge that Arman says they are behind everything and are within everything, and to realize that within organisms, the turning, spiraling forces are manifested most importantly as DNA.</p>
<p>&#8220;Arman says that those who truly follow his teachings are scientists, whether they know it or not and whether or not they have any science education. &#8216;Each person who follows this path, and truly understands it,&#8217; says Arman, &#8216;is a physicist, naturalist, evolutionist, biologist, botanist, psychologist and a true scientist of every type and variety all wrapped up in the single person.&#8217;</p>
<p>&#8220;Arman says that true science is never in conflict with his teachings and his teachings are never in conflict with true science because they are one and the same, but that his teachings, which are based, in the first instance, on revelations and guidance he received, include a sense of awe and wonder as well as things not yet understood by science that can generally be called beliefs and faith.</p>
<p>&#8220;Is there a god in Arman&#8217;s teachings? Yes, but&#8230; Arman usually calls this the First Cause and says that it is unknowable because it is that which did the impossible by creating something out of absolute nothing. Any god that started with something already in existence &#8212; even if it is subatomic particles &#8212; cannot be, by definition, the First Cause, and only the First Cause can truly be called God. You will see from this that God as set forth by Arman is different from many other conceptions you may have heard about. And, this conception is such that one can believe in the teachings even if one does not believe in a god.</p>
<p>&#8220;Once waves and forces and subatomic particles were in existence, the trajectory was set for the automatic cosmic evolution that we see all around us in the universe. And, everything in existence is spinning, turning, and spiraling. Arman also says that if you don&#8217;t have a god in your religious scheme, then you are ignoring human psychology and the importance of having an ender of all arguments, among other things. So, you White folks who think you&#8217;re too rational to have a god may want to invent one, or better still, follow Arman&#8217;s lead on this.</p>
<p>&#8220;On Earth, the spinning, turning, spiraling forces have created the DNA molecule, and the DNA molecule, in turn, creates all life on Earth.</p>
<p>&#8220;We White humans are just one of millions of organisms that have all evolved from that first molecule of DNA that made the leap from so-called non-living minerals to living minerals. Ultimately, we are all minerals, man, but we so-called living organisms are minerals that can make more like ourselves and do various other things that we define as life.</p>
<p>&#8220;So, what is the difference between us and, say, a rock or a pile of dirt? It is the DNA molecule. It is the animating thing within us. The DNA molecule is sort of like a potter&#8217;s wheel and a potter all in one. It takes minerals and spins and shapes them into living organisms and it remains within them as the life force itself. It&#8217;s like a coiled spring, man. When we are born, the spring is tight, and as the years go by, it begins unwinding until it is without any more tensile strength, and then we return to the inert mineral state.</p>
<p>&#8220;But DNA is much more than just a potter&#8217;s wheel and a potter. Analogies and metaphors quickly break down when we try to describe what is almost impossible for us to describe. Ever since it came into existence, the DNA molecule has been trying to fill all of existence with itself. It does this by constantly making new forms of life, by modifying previous forms. How does it do this? it constantly tinkers with its own code and moves parts of the code around. It never stops tinkering. If there is water, it invents gills. If there is sky, it invents wings. If it is cold, it invents fur. If it is a dim area, it invents white skin. If it comes to an obstacle, it quickly adapts to try to overcome the obstacle. And all of these automatic changes in the DNA code found in every living organism are happening all the time so that every organism is given a chance to survive, to breed, to expand the genetic code it carries.</p>
<p>&#8220;If the changes in the organism make it a little quicker or a little stronger or a little smarter than similar organisms in its niche and if it follows Nature&#8217;s plan to reproduce to its maximum with more like itself, it may eventually replace the earlier models from which it sprang. This is evolution, man. It&#8217;s a constant and never ending competition to bring forth the best for every niche.</p>
<p>&#8220;Arman says we must live <em>consciously</em> and we must now <em>will</em> our own evolution.</p>
<p>&#8220;Now, here&#8217;s something else. Some organisms are trapped by having adaptations that are too specific. Think of koalas from Australia as just one example. They&#8217;ll die if they can&#8217;t eat one particular kind of leaf. That&#8217;s a specific adaptation. Contrast that with cockroaches which have many general adaptations so they can live almost anywhere on land and eat almost anything. And, they just keep producing more of their kind no matter what obstacles are thrown in their way. Cockroaches were around when there were dinosaurs. Who was the best at survival? The cockroach. Whose genetic code is still here and still expanding? The cockroach. Learn from this.</p>
