Restored Puritanism — Fides et Gens, Inseperable.

Shroud of Turin:
The Shroud is a piece of linen that bears the faint image of a man, which has been venerated as the image of Christ for centuries.
It however likely isn't authentic, but it doesn't matter if it is. Belief in Christ doesn't depend on the authenticity of a piece of linen.

A brief known history:

—1354: Exhibited in new collegiate church of Lirey, France.
—1389: Denounced as a forgery by Pierre d'Arcis, the bishop of Troyes (claiming he knew the author).
—1453: Acquired by the House of Savoy and deposited in a chapel in Chambéry.
—1532: Damaged by fire.
—1578: Moved to the House of Savoy's new capital Turin.
—1683: Moved to the Chapel of the Holy Shroud (chapel built for the shroud).
—1978: Microscopist Walter McCrone from STURP took samples and demonstrated the image was painted onto the Shroud with pigments produced from red ochre and collagen tempera, and the blood was not blood, but a pigment produced from vermilion.
—1983: Ownership transferred to Catholic Church after former House of Savoy king Umberto II passed away.
—1988: Three radiocarbon laboratories (U-Oxford, U-Arizona, ETH-Zurich) demonstrated the linen was produced between the years 1260 and 1390, coinciding with it's first known historical appearance.
—2022: X-ray dating of the Shroud demonstrated the linen was produced between AD55-74.

Study Abstract:

On a sample of the Turin Shroud (TS), we applied a new method for dating ancient linen threads by inspecting their structural degradation by means of Wide-Angle X-ray Scattering (WAXS). The X-ray dating method was applied to a sample of the TS consisting of a thread taken in proximity of the 1988/radiocarbon area (corner of the TS corresponding to the feet area of the frontal image, near the so-called Raes sample). The size of the linen sample was about 0.5 mm × 1 mm. We obtained one-dimensional integrated WAXS data profiles for the TS sample, which were fully compatible with the analogous measurements obtained on a linen sample whose dating, according to historical records, is 55–74 AD, Siege of Masada (Israel). The degree of natural aging of the cellulose that constitutes the linen of the investigated sample, obtained by X-ray analysis, showed that the TS fabric is much older than the seven centuries proposed by the 1988 radiocarbon dating. The experimental results are compatible with the hypothesis that the TS is a 2000-year-old relic, as supposed by Christian tradition, under the condition that it was kept at suitable levels of average secular temperature—20.0–22.5 °C—and correlated relative humidity—75–55%—for 13 centuries of unknown history, in addition to the seven centuries of known history in Europe. To make the present result compatible with that of the 1988 radiocarbon test, the TS should have been conserved...

Summary:
The study published in 2022 (the study is 2 years old, why is everyone acting like it's a breakthrough from last week?) may prove the linen was produced much earlier than the previous 1988 study, proving the linen was produced around AD50-70 (still not early enough for crucifixion: ~AD33); however this doesn't prove it's authentic, just that the canvas used was already old.
Previous studies already demonstrated the image was created with pigments, and even the blood is a pigment not actual blood; as well as a bishop contemporary to it's first known historical appearance claiming it to be a forgery and claiming to know the artist responsible.
During mediaeval times, many fraudulent relics were produced and sold, so this is not uncommon.

Regardless, this doesn't mean that portrayal of Jesus as a Neanderthal by Israeli "scientists" is authentic; not even modern SSA admixed Levantines look like that, and we have actual evidence of what He looked like.
Lastly it's still a nice relic that should be preserved and held as a traditional icon, like any historical artistic painting of Christ.
But it is art and not an authentic image of Christ.

Japanese Open Borders:
Many have been quick to rush, to get up in arms about what is rapidly taking place in Japan, however ultimately though, it is not in the interests of Whites to help the Japanese nor that the Japanese are successful.

It is however in our interests to exploit their continued plight into worsening conditions to gather sympathy for the West against immigration. Treating Japan as an example on why third world (non-white) immigration is bad for us, as it ruins their country.

It is also in our interests that a large country like Japan imports foreigners. Japan, which has a similar sized population (~125m) to the native White population of the USA (~180m) could host another 100m foreigners (like the US currently does), which benefits the West as if they don't go to Japan, they come here instead.

Asia is currently going through a demographic nightmare, in which India and China will lose 500m and 700m in population, respectively. Which doesn't include the massive loses of other Asia nations, which will exceed 2b in population loss, collectively. Given how industrious and competitive Asia is, they will need to replace their workforce to maintain their economies. They will compete relentlessly to absorb as many migrating foreigners as possible as global surplus births will soon dry up.

The Artillery of History takes aim at the Orient (read the article).

Asia absorbing excess third world population is only needed for the next few decades, as the TFR (fertility) of the third world will be below replacement by 2045 even in Sub Sahara Africa. Where they will no longer have surplus births to export, and lose their ability to mass export to the West.

But Asia will continue to need more, so given continued Western negative sentiment against foreigners, Asia making themselves more desirable to immigrants, and even Sub Sahara running out of surplus births, we will see foreigners emigrant from the West to the East for their next cash cow.

What is curious about Non fertility, is that not just Asians but even Africans quickly accelerate to far below sub 1 TFR in just decades despite huge pro-natal government policies. While Whites settle around 1.3-1.5 TFR at the lowest, despite 100 years of decline and billions of dollars in anti-natal propaganda. Whites are just more resilient and stablise, while Nons collapse.

If Whites can survive until 2100, we'll be at a point where the global Non population is sub 1 TFR and the threat of mass immigration has passed. But to get there we need to: close our borders, deport Nons and have more White children.

It truly is turning around globally for Whites. Just keep having lots of White children and advocating for White countries.

I am optimistic for our future.
