“The risk of racist religiosity are great. By projecting grievances, fears and anxieties onto the 'shadow' figures of other races, religious transcendence is stunted and perverted into the dynamics of delusion and hatred. Instead of genuine spirituality, there is partiality, separation, restriction. A rigid self-righteousness leads down into the spiritual basement of a primitive dualism, where pseudo-salvation depends on elimination of the Other. The political projection of religious Manichaeism onto human differences inevitably leads to strife and violence. Whenever human groups are interpreted as absolute categories of good and evil, light and darkness, both the human community and humanity itself are diminished. Such degraded religion never leads to light but only to darkness.”

“Sitting in the garden of Hitler’s former classmates in Leonding, she visualized the beloved features of her Fuhrer suddenly merging into the impersonal Essence of
the many-featured One, who spoke Krishna’s words to Arjuna. She was certain that she had sought him for centuries, in life after life, until
she realized that the founder of the Third Reich was indeed he— the one who comes back, whenever he should ‘‘to establish the reign of Righteousness.”

“Willibald Mattern, a German emigre in Santiago de Chile, had spun a powerful tale of Nazi resurgence. His book, UFOs: Unbekanntes Flugobjekt? Letzte Geheimwaffe des Dritten Reiches (UFOs: Unidentified flying object? Last secret weapon of the Third Reich) (1974), described how thousands of Nazi UFOs will one day fly forth from the South Pole to restore German world power against a scenario of increasing racial chaos and economic catastrophe in a final act of deliverance.”

“« Dans l’esprit de Serrano, la défaite du IIIe Reich en 1945 n’est qu’une défaite temporaire dans le monde extérieur. Les nazis avaient préparé un refuge secret sous la calotte glacière de l’Antarctique, sans doute avec l’aide des Hyperboréens qui avaient depuis longtemps colonisé l’intérieur de la Terre creuse. Leur technologie avancée, basée sur l’implosion et l’antigravité, explique les innombrables apparitions d’OVNIs après-guerre, lesquels sont les signes précurseurs d’une nouvelle civilisation qui va anoblir la Terre au lieu de la dépouiller. Hitler est resté quelque temps dans les oasis chaudes de l’Antarctique, mais il a sans doute voyagé depuis longtemps à bord d’un OVNI à travers la "fenêtre" de Venus, pour retourner au foyer archétypal du Soleil Noir et du Rayon Vert, au-delà de la galaxie. »”

“He condemned Christian humanism together with liberal democracy, egalitarianism and “the nonsensical belief in anthropomorphic deities” as products of the Jewish mind “foisted upon Aryan humanity at the point of Roman swords under the accursed Christian Emperor Constantine.” Madole fulminated against “the ignorant fanatics of the Christian clergy” who had destroyed the ancient Aryan esoteric and scientific knowledge and thus ushered in the medieval Dark Ages. The text was illustrated with Christians being thrown to the lions in the Roman circus, over the caption: “The grim justice of Imperial Rome—death to the Judaeo-Christian subverters of Aryan values, the foul criminals whose later victory plunged Aryan Europe into the Dark Ages.”
