THE WEST WIND

A periodic journal dedicated to Schlegel's view of a united Western Culture (Europa) and a united Christian, Orthodox, Apostolic Church. The author will quote sources when not detractory, but many of his historical observations are not original and derive from Baron Ledhin, Rosenstock-Huessy, Oswald Spengler, and other German thinkers. Among planned titles include: Axum (First Christian kingdom), Jane Austen and Anglican Orthodoxy in Blessed Britain, and The Russian Genius for Suffering.

The Crusades

I like this new pope.
The faux Liberaux reopened the debate by hating everything that reeks of cultural Christianity (Leithart's Christendom). Ridley Scott's movie was a slap in the face of all who kept their mouth shut so as not to offend needlessly. There were many noble people involved in the Crusades, and they were a response to centuries of Islamic expansion by the sword. That said, we should still apologize for our sins.
