Nice attempt, but you'll have a rough time pigeon-holing me into the very vocal minority of race-aware Americans who resort to binary racism and anti-Semitism. I think Abrahamic religion is fine, for Semitic cultures. Where I object is when this model has been placed onto other cultures and created a subversive movement of globalism and a rising of the mercantile caste over warrior aristocracies and priesthoods.
I understand that when Christianity is interpreted intelligently it can be quite a fine and noble religion, but we rarely see this in practice; especially in the modern age.
Back what Marulus said about martyrs and knights. Knights were born out of what has come to be called Männerbünde and a vital component of Feudal societies which exemplify the sense of Hierarchy pre-Christian European cultures had. These sorts of organizations were found all throughout Indo-European cultures, and persisted through Christian times. Just because Christianity happened to be the major religion of the medieval period doesn't make it responsible for these organizations coming about. Martyrs cannot always be taken as heroic figures. It really depends on what they are being martyr'd for. It is heroic to stick to your word and your beliefs, but generally in societies that encourage heroism.. to fight for your beliefs, rather than just submissively and fatalistically accept death, is of greater virtue.
