Contemporary anthropologists who believe in the existence of an ancient Aryan race generally have the opinion that its closest descendants today are the Persians or Iranians and Afghans, not the Europeans or the Germans; so possibly the Ossetes and Slavs, but certainly not the Nordic race with which they were equated in Nazi ideology. http://www.answers.com/topic/aryan-race   (771 words)      Aryan race - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The idea of the "Aryan race", however, as a strictly ethnic intepretation of the word that extended to Europeans, arose when linguists identified the Avestan and Sanskrit language as the oldest known relatives of all the major European languages, including Latin, Greek, the Germanic, Celtic and Slavic languages.

Under Nazi doctrine, one major obsession of the party was to assure that the blood of the German "master race" remained "pure" of any contamination by people with undesirable features. ‘As part of its attempt to "purify" German society and propagate an "Aryan master race," the Nazi regime condemned homosexuals as "socially aberrant." Persecution was especially focused on homosexual men who were considered a particular threat to the Nazi goal of an increased "Aryan" birthrate, justifying the classification of homosexuality as a racial crime. http://www.u.arizona.edu/~shaked/Holocaust/lectures/lec11c.html   (771 words)      A Tribute to Hinduism Thus was born one more myth, this time of the Aryan European, Christian of course, and preferably Germanic.

That is, Steiner refers on a very few occasions to certain cultural aspects of the Nordic-Germanic peoples, but never identifies them as a race or sub-race, and never speaks of any racial element at all.

The Germanic inhabitant of the American continent, who has remained racially pure and unmixed, rose to be master of the continent; he will remain the master as long as he does not fall a victim to defilement of the blood. http://www.geocities.com/CapeCanaveral/Hangar/2437/nazis.htm   (771 words)      The Nordish Race The first two are large-headed Upper Palaeolithic survivors, while the Nordic race, that stereotypically tall, blond, blue-eyed race which most people associate with names such as "Germanic", "Teutonic" and the like, appeared in northwestern Europe during the Iron Age in association with the Keltic and Germanic cultures. I believe this relationship has been invalidated by DNA research, which shows a much closer connection between the Nordic race and the Upper Palaeoithic races of the Nordish group than with any Mediterranean. According to Coon, the modern Nordic race evolved from a cross between the ancient Danubian culture bearers and the warlike Corded or Battle-axe people, though it is likely that the Danubians have had immensely more to say in this development than the latter. http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Thebes/8250/TheNordishRa.html   (771 words)      Doctrinal Statement - Christian Identity, White Race, Christian Right, Christian Patriot, Nationalism, Conservative, Seedline Doctrinal Statement - Christian Identity, White Race, Christian Right, Christian Patriot, Nationalism, Conservative, Seedline Only this race fulfills every detail of Biblical Prophecy and World History concerning Israel and continues in these latter days to be heirs and possessors of the Covenants, Prophecies, Promises and Blessings YHVH God made to Israel.

Although they understand that pride in heritage and reverence of ancestors is a vital part of Germanic Paganism, they welcome anyone inspired by the Germanic gods to attend their rituals, regardless of their "race".

The fifth root-race is sometimes spoken of as the Aryan race, merely because the Aryans of India are an existing example of the earliest branches of the fifth, though the term Aryan is not in accordance with the various ethnological and linguistic distinction to which that name is commonly applied. http://www.defendingsteiner.com/misconceptions/r-race.php   (2680 words)      Folkish or universalistic To allege, all Folkish followers of Asatru are racists would not be correct, however, there are many followers who see concepts as 'Germanic descent' and 'European descent' as synonyms for concepts like 'white race', and then one is already in a racist area. The concept folkish itself originally means 'popular or commonly', later it was used in the sense of 'nationality' and by the National-Socialists (Nazis), the emphasis lay and lies in its use on 'people and 'race'. Proving this folkish viewpoint is not really possible, at most, it's more or less 'probable' that one has Germanic ancestors. http://www.boudicca.de/folkuni.html   (2680 words)      Chapter XII The Nordic race ideal naturally meets with most attention among those peoples which to-day still have a strong strain of Nordic blood, of whom some are even still very predominantly Nordic -- that is, among the peoples of Germanic speech in Europe and North America. Count Gobineau, too, was the first to see that, through the mixture of the Nordic with other races, the way was being prepared for what to-day (with Spengler) is called the 'Fall of the West'. Through researches such as these Gobineau's teachings received a deeper meaning, and found fresh support from all these sources, from the sciences of heredity, eugenics, and race: the Nordic movement was born. http://www.white-history.com/earlson/hfk/reoehchap12.htm   (2680 words)      Master Race Theme @ HillCountryArts.com (Hill Country Arts) To maintain the purity of the Germanic master race, eugenics was practised. It derives from nineteenth century racial theory, which posited a hierarchy of "races" placing African Bushmen and Indigenous Australians at the bottom of the hierarchy while white, West Europeans were at the top. While the phrase itself is seldom used in these cases, the inhumane and barbaric treatment of those not belonging to the "master race" in the fictional fascisms seems to imply that such an ideology is present. http://www.hillcountryarts.com/encyclopedia/Master_race   (605 words)      Vanguard News Network Forum - Christian influence on Celtic and Germanic heathenism In fact it is Christians who have transferred all the myths of the Germanic race largely because Germanic heathens both relied on oral traditions and were largely illiterate before conversion. Germanic experts Richard Fetcher, Peter Sawyer and Hida Roderick Davidson all agree that all we know of Germanic heathenism is derived from Christians like Snorri Sturluson, Saxo Grammaticus, and itranslaters Magnus Magnusson, Hermann Palsson. Richard Fletcher in his The Barbarian Conversion: From Paganism to Christianity, notes that we know very little about Germanic paganism(or paganism in general outside the Greeco-Roman religion) and thus its hard to tell what exactly the pagans converted from. http://www.vnnforum.com/printthread.php?t=12919   (605 words)      Dan Wyman Books Antisemitica If once [sic] this 'race' were decisively defeated, the Germanic 'race' would be free to realize its own divinely appointed destiny--which was to create a new, radiant world, transfused with a noble spirituality and mysteriously combining modern technology and science with the rural, hierarchical culture of earlier times. ' In Chamberlain's view the Jewish 'race' had been relentlessly striving, down the ages, to secure absolute dominion over all other nations. He wrote the 2 volume "Foundation of the 19th Century," a work Norman Cohn called "[The] Bible of the whole voelkisch-racist movement." Chamberlain characterized the Teutons as the race of creative culture, a race that would be responsible for the defending of Christian culture from the influences of Judaism. http://www.danwymanbooks.com/fearthejew.htm   (10374 words)      [WWI-L:50312] Book review: "German Myths in the German Kaiserreich" More convincing is the transition Kipper traces from a national-liberal view of the Germanic past to a more directly _voelkisch_ perspective in the early years of the Kaiserreich. These figures solidified a view of Germanic prehistory that emphasized race, ethnic conflict, and cultural survival. All those tendencies that erupted after 1933, Kipper concludes, could be found in the _Kaiserreich_, even if the struggle to define the Germanic past had not yet been lost. http://www.ku.edu/carrie/archives/wwi-l/2004/06/msg00043.html   (10374 words)
