Runes are a form of ancient alphabet, representing letters. Many runes
have been found in Germany. Researchers believe that the symbols were
related to religious beliefs in ancient Germany.
One of the most notorious runes is the rune that resembles and
corresponds to the letter "S" in ancient Germany.
A lot of research on runes occurred before the amazing recent discovery
by the famed runologist Dr. Rex Curry (author of "Swastika Secrets"),
showing that when German socialists performed the straight-arm salute
to their swastika flag, they were saluting alphabetic "S" symbolism for
"socialism." The swastika, although an ancient symbol, was used
sometimes by German National Socialists to represent "S" letters for
their "socialism."
Many people do not know that German socialists did not call their
rune-style symbol a swastika. It was called a Hakenkreuz.
Most people do not know that a cross was worshiped as the notorious
symbol of the National Socialist German Workers' Party. Hakenkreuz
means "hooked cross." It is one of the biggest cover-ups in history.
The hooked cross became a symbol of Christian Socialism.
With a 45 degree turn of his symbol, and by pointing new uses
clockwise, the leader of German National Socialists highlighted the "S"
shapes to combine the cross with collectivism, merge church and state,
mesh religion and socialism, and mandate the worship of government. He
altered his own signature to use the same symbolism and similar
alphabetic symbolism still shows on Volkswagens.
http://rexcurry.net/book1a1contents-swastika.html
The noted symbologist Dr. Curry had previously shown that the
straight-arm salute originated in the USA where it had been the early
salute to the USA's flag in the Pledge of Allegiance, that had
originally been created by the self-proclaimed national socialist
Francis Bellamy, cousin and cohort to the also-famous Edward Bellamy,
another national socialist in the USA and known worldwide.
http://rexcurry.net/book1a1contents-pledge.html
People were persecuted for refusing to give the straight-arm salute to
the national flag. That persecution occurred in the USA (to the stars
and stripes) and in Germany (to the swastika flag) at the same time,
although it started in the USA first. Today, most people in the USA
were educated in government schools (socialist schools), so they are
ignorant of the fact that it was happening in both Germany and the USA.
Children of various races and backgrounds attended government schools
that were segregated by law and they were forced to perform the
straight-arm salute in robotic chanting every morning at the ring of a
government bell (just as it is done today but with a different
gesture).
Many people considered the raised-arm salute to the national flag to be
sacrilegious worship of government and socialism. Religious people had
good reasons to consider the pledge / salute to be sacrilegious, in
that Germans used the ritual toward their Hakenkreuz flag, the
hooked-cross flag.
Guido Karl Anton List, better known as Guido von List (1848 - 1919) is
well-known in runology due to his authorship of "Secret of the Runes."
Some people consider him a völkisch author and an important figure in
runic revivalism in the late 19th, early 20th Century.
List was strongly influenced by the Theosophical thought of Madame
Blavatsky, as were the Bellamys.
http://rexcurry.net/theosophy-madame-blavatsky-theosophical-society.html
List claimed that the dominance of the Roman Catholic Church in
Austria-Hungary constituted a continuing occupation of the Germany by
the Roman empire, albeit now in a religious form, and a continuing
persecution of the occupied territory. List also touted renunciation of
Roman Catholicism and perhaps Christianity in general, explaining that
it was a religion with roots in Judaism. Among his ideological
followers was Lanz von Liebenfels. List's beliefs also influenced
Heinrich Himmler, the head of the SS in under the National Socialist
German Workers' Party.
In the German language, the title of List's book is "Das Geheimnis der
Runen" and an illustration from his work shows a swastika symbol that
is very different from the symbol used as the symbol of German
socialism. It is more evidence in support of Dr. Curry's work and it
illustrates how the leader of the National Socialist German Workers'
Party deliberately altered the rune to highlight the "S" letters for
"socialism."
http://rexcurry.net/swastika/hakenkreuz_files/LIST.jpg
The swastika-rune style symbol of the Thule Society also supports Dr.
Curry's work. The Thule Society (German: Thule-Gesellschaft) was
originally the Studiengruppe für germanisches Altertum 'Study Group
for Germanic Antiquity.' The Thule Society was founded August 17, 1918
by Rudolf von Sebottendorff, as the Munich branch of the Germanenorden,
a secret society a.k.a. the "Order of Teutons" (1912). Von
Sebottendorff later claimed that the Germanenorden pressed him to
emphasize political and nationalist socialist angles. The leader of
German National Socialism was never a member of the Thule Society. An
illustration of the swastika symbol used by the group shows a symbol
that is different from the symbol used as the symbol of German
socialism. It is more evidence in support of Dr. Curry's work and it
illustrates how the leader of the National Socialist German Workers'
Party altered the rune symbol to highlight "S" letters for "socialism."
http://rexcurry.net/swastika/hakenkreuz_files/Thule-gesellschaft_embl...
Under German Socialism, the evolution of the swastika rune occurred
thusly: First, the overlapping sig runes of the Hakenkruez (swastika)
served as the initial symbol used by the National Socialists; Second,
the stylized SA symbol was formed for the Sturmabteilung (SA)
Stormtroopers to resemble the Hakenkreuz; Third, the organization for
youth socialists took from the hakenkreuz its solitary sig runes;
Forth, the SS (Schutzstaffel) symbol that separated the intertwined sig
runes of the hakenkreuz and rearranged it as side-by-side sig runes.
http://rexcurry.net/bookchapter4a1a2.html
On January 6, 1929 the leader of the National Socialist German Workers'
Party appointed Heinrich Himmler as the leader of the SS. Himmler is
quoted as having said that the two "SS-Siegrunen" stood aptly for the
name of the Schutzstaffel because they represented success and victory
in Nordic mythology. The Swastika represented their "unshakeable" faith
in the ultimate victory of their socialist philosophy.
In 1932 SS man Walter Heck an employee of the badge manufacturer firm
of Ferdinand Hoffstatter drew two sig-runes side by side and the rest,
so to speak, is history. The SS symbol developed after the swastika,
as an evolution of the swastika. Heck saw the swastika a two "S"
shapes which he rearranged for the special use of a division of the
party.
The word "rune" is probably related to the word "round" etymologically.
P.S. Nik Warrensson is an uneducated ignorant troll and full of
doo-doo.
The straight-arm salute was not an ancient salute and he knows it and
that is why he can't cite any evidence otherwise.
A couple of copies of this minus the PS arrived in the moderation
queue for soc.religion.asatru. Not a game I'm interested in playing.
Rejected.
A judgement call that, I'm sure, reasonable people would agree with.

The Nazi era is off topic on any Asatru group. It's not enforcible on
ARA but it is on SRA. In that era the Nazis corrupted many ancient
Asatru symbols that had no such associations before then.
Anyone who thinks that a sigel rune as crarved into a stone a
thousand years ago is evil because a bunch of evil men 70 agos ago
used it is a liar and an idiot.
The process of cleaning the runes and non-futhark symbols from
the damage done to them by the Nazis is a slow one. The activities
of liars like Tiny Ray are blatant enough to not imede that progress.
It's the evil of the Nazis themselves that impedes the progress and
the existance of modern followers of that movement.

points...<blah blah blah>

Consider that when SRA was chartered around 6 months ago, several
trolls said they would never go away. Yet go away they have. Why?
Because they outlived their usefullness and they no longer have a
point. Before it was possible for them to drive newbie heathens off
of Usenet onto mailing lists. Now all they can do is push newbie
heahtens from the unmoderated ARA to moderated SRA.
Have pity on the mentally ill, Nik. Maybe even consider including
thoughts of them during an annual Blot to Eir.
Say, does anyone have a date to do an annual blot to Eir? No
holiday rings a bell for me.
Hail Asgard!

Also, you deserve credit for your support of Dr. Rex Curry's work,

to evade comment on the questions raised about "Socialism."
Runes have been the subject of a lot of research, some focusing on
their influence upon in the history of religion and society. Some of
the work also examines their influence upon socialism and even upon
modern government. Those worries have relevance to the enormous size

The stupidity of this comment is obvious to everyone that knows both

This posting firms my conviction that the person "Tinny Ray" is none
other than our old protagonist Bertie the Bunyip/Roger Williams...
He'd gone away for a while but now he's back with this elaborately
constructed runic bleating and accusations of closet nazism.
His game is to continue making posts like this and, rightly or
wrongly, associate, in the common mind Asatru belief with nazism.
When one considers, however, that a recurring theme of the sagas is
the conflict between individual freedom and the needs of a community
to limit those freedoms in order to survive it makes the accusations
of nazism all the more ludicrous.
My suggestion is that we all refrain from engaging with "Tinny Ray".

There's no arguing it.

What makes you think I won't?
Nik
Is there evidence that the German tribes used the Roman salute?
Doesn't seem like something they'd have adopted in ancient times.
Certainly doesn't seem to be a topic worth ridding of the Nazi
stigma by heathens.
We are related to the Nova Roma movement, though. Both Asatru
and Nova Roma are reconstructionist efforts towards building on
an ancient religious heritage that is core to western culture, along
with the Hellenic reconstructionist and Druids and so on. Lately
there's been discussion on Asatru groups and lists about the
fellowship between modern Germanics and modern Slavics in the
form of Poles attending Asatru events. Anyways, if the Nova
Roma folks wish to work on removing the 20th century stigma
from the ancient Roman salute, more power to'em IMO.
We've got the stigma of the swastika that will be an albatross
around our necks for a very long time. Our cousins and allies in
Nova Roma have the Roman salute doing the same thing. I doubt
that any of us alive today will see the stimga go away.
But runes and legions are a different story. I've seen runic
jewelry for years and included are ones that had been corrupted
by the Nazis. One by one the symbols return to their real
meanings. The 20th century corruption gone but not forgotten.

So a couple of hints if you want to be an effective "nym shifting troll".
First, don't post with the same return email address on all your posts while
changing only the display name. Throwaway email accounts are cheap.
Second, all reputable providers (this would include Google and your ISP) log
your IP address. You'll need to learn how to proxy or maybe find a provider
that will hide your IP address. These two posts both came from the same
residential IP address which means they came from the same computer.
As Bugs Bunny would say. "What a maroon".
This is the time when you find a single image of someone with his hand
raised on something from ancient Rome and you spontaneously declare it to be
the mythical "Roman" salute, even though you know nothing about the scene
depicted, and the people who do have knowledge of the image have never said
that it was a "Roman salute" depicted.
Go ahead, everyone is waiting for you to show even moreso your stupidity.
Dirk, you are such a loon spamming your made up looniness all over the
place. you should try looking at the pictures, with the salute.
Here is what you concede about Dr. Curry's work regarding the single tiny
issue that you attempt to raise:
The event that served as inspiration for the painting did not actually occur
as depicted.
The artist did not actually see the event that inspired him.
The artist was not even attempting to discover the actual scene nor to paint
it as a factual record.
The artist has never referred to the scene he fabricated as showing an
"ancient Roman salute."
The artist has never referred to the scene he fabricated as showing
"salutes" at all.
The Tennis Court Oath does not show other people taking an oath.
The artist never represented the painting as showing other people joining in
an oath.
The word oath is singular in the painting's title, not plural.
The painting shows a single person in the center taking an oath.
Again, the actual event that inspired the artist did not occur as he painted
it.
The artist never claimed that the event that inspired him occurred as he
painted it.
You are creating new angles on the modern roman salute myth in an effort to
cover-up Dr. Curry's discoveries simply because you don't like reality and
you wish to pretend that something else happened.
Even the arguments you make have not been repeated in history. Your posts
have shown that you make stuff up as you go along, as you expand a mythical
phrase (the Roman salute) which you have already given up as an error, and
you continue in your effort to cover-up the discoveries of Dr. Rex Curry.
You are pathetic.
The person who wrote the wiki paragraph is similar to you in that he was
attempting to find/create the explanation he desired to assert in his effort
to cover-up the discoveries of the historian Dr. Rex Curry.
And despite all of the above, you concede Dr. Curry's work is correct in
that you never even attempt to assert that you made up new explanations ever
influenced Francis Bellamy.
You know that Bellamy explained how he created his salute and that it had
nothing to do with anything you have suggested.
You know that Bellamy never said the word "Roman salute," and there is no
evidence that such a thought ever existed in his head.
You know that you have not even had the guts to attempt to tie your flights
of imagination to the origin of the salute of the National Socialist German
Workers' Party, so you show how little belief you have in your own honesty.
You are pathetic.
And you are a lunatic.
<laughter>
Have a nice day
Amusing lunatic though Dirk, fairs fair.

That information about runes being used as modern alphabetic symbolism
for
"S" letters for "socialism" in the swastika under the National
Socialist
German Workers' Party is actually quite fascinating. Thanks.
Bowman Post.Post.Colonial. Boy PCCB, Thanks again for conceding that
The stiff armed salute did not originate in ancient Rome.
Martin is so stupid that he is not aware that American citizens saluted
the American flag in the same manner.
As pointed out before, and here again; The National Socialist German
Workers' Party was a German ideology, heavily influenced by American
National Socialism that predated it for 3 decades, and it was not
Roman.
Back in the 1920's the NSGWP's leader embraced the National Socialist
political ideology and he changed the name of his National Socialist
group to National Socialism and
adopted some very Germanic S-shaped symbols (Swastika, S-rune, etc) to
represent his "socialism" to the image of his political party.
Additional to this he had no interest whatsoever in Germanic Heathenism
other than as a way to push national socialism. He took those Germanic
symbols for the mere reason of promoting his German/Germanic national
socialism.

that you posted under an alternate ID to agree with yourself.
