If Adolf Hitler was a Christian prince, why did every single one of his successors reject Christianity?

Chapter 13 of Black Sun answers that question. Nordic Racial Paganism documents the movements that tried to replace Christ with Wotan — the Norse father god — as the deity of the white race. Three figures anchor the story: Wyatt Kaldenberg, who celebrated the Holocaust and called Christianity the theology of self-hatred. Jost Turner, a Vietnam vet who built a National Socialist commune in Northern California and practiced swastika-posture yoga directed by a supposedly immortal Himalayan guru. And David Lane — convicted murderer, author of the 14 words, who rewrote the Beatitudes with the hammer of Thor and ran a publishing house from federal prison that distributed esoteric Hitlerist theology worldwide.

This episode traces the direct connection from David Lane’s 14 Word Press to Miguel Serrano’s esoteric Hitlerism, and from there into the Hyperborean memes and Black Sun imagery now flooding online spaces. It also documents how the number 1183 — modeled on Lane’s 1488 — appeared on Christmas ornaments alongside Stephen Wolfe’s book cover, and asks why pastors and influencers in the Reformed world aren’t asking harder questions about the men in their orbit.
