My introduction

[William Leaver]

Good morning like-minded folk of European parentage! I've just joined WB shortly after applying for membership of NA with my wife. This was after occasionally perusing the content of NV for about a year. My first awakening to our people's plight began when I finally started to question the propaganda of 20th century history, especially WW2. Luckily my first online search about it landed me at https://nationalvanguard.org/2020/08/je ... societies/ and I was hooked!

I don't really enjoy attention, so it's not really easy to write this, but it seems to be a requirement of sorts, so I'll give it a try.

My journey from pitch-black darkness to light was a long and arduous struggle. I was the first of five siblings born to a Baptist family which began in Columbus Ohio. My Father was an IBMer so we moved residences basically every 3 years. Our family's migration path was Ohio > Guam > Ohio > Minnesota > Ohio > Kentucky when I graduated high school. The family then stayed in Kentucky while I embraced the nomadic trend by joining the USAF as an Airborne Russian Linguist where I served 5 years (2 state-side for school and 3 on Okinawa.)

My father was agnostic and my mother christian. I swallowed christian propaganda hook, line and sinker. My father didn't attend church, but the children dutifully attended twice on Sunday, once on Wednesday, youth group, AWANA, VBS and summer camp etc. While serving at Kadena AB though, I met a friend who gave me the book "Babylon Mystery Religion" by Ralph Woodrow (who sometime later in his life recanted the entire book. He will still firmly entrenched in judeo-christian propaganda and had to be put in his proper place I guess.)

This book did however raise questions about christian holidays and other fables. I was already well into a correspondence course from Liberty University where I planned to complete my degree and become a Baptist pastor. At this point I figured I'd have a conversation with the Pastor of Maranatha Baptist Okinawa about this book. I imagined he would explain how it was simply untrue. However, his response was something like this: "It's true, but you cannot change 2000 years of christian tradition!" After that I immediately abandoned my pastoral ambition.

After serving I separated from the military (honorably) and began a career as a contract software developer and then a family run website hosting business in 1999 just as the internet was becoming popular. Skills that will not be necessary though if SHTF. We're both so busy but trying to get back to basics: gardening, raising chickens, prepping and looking for an alternative to the family business if it comes to that.

My wife was a public school teacher for 2 years. She graduated from Berea College and began teaching 7-8th grade in Somerset where we met. She quit to become a mom, and she has homeschooled our five children with aplomb.

Early in our marriage, my wife was still very christian. I had told her about the book that raised questions for me, and she seemed interested, but still wanted a Baptist experience for our children. I went with the flow, but felt very discontent and restless. Year by year it grew, but it took 26 years from 1988 to 2014 to finally throw up my hands and exclaim "I can't take it any longer!"

I stopped going to church and joined a hebrew roots group on my own. Took me about three months to recognize it was just as bad as christianity, so I began attending an orthodox synagogue. Three months later I saw it was as corrupt as christianity. At this point I realized I couldn't ever find truth without studying the various writings myself and without blinders.

From there I looked into reform, karaite (we used to provide web hosting for a very popular karaite jew whose name will not be uttered) and finally samaritanism. Through this process I wrote articles about how various practices were NOT representing anything close to actual religious truth (including the samaritans.) I found the samaritan community, surviving with less than 900 people were the original remnants of the northern kingdom of Israel, lived in the land since the time of Joshua and had nothing but the torah (still sectarian fairy tales though) which was different from the jewish one. They were still corrupt, but less than other sects. I figured they were at least closer to truth.

Throughout this period our marital relations went sideways. We argued about religion all the time. Amy wasn't ready to face facts, and the three older children were confused between the two of us. (She eventually woke up though.)

I was uncircumcised and was about to meet a representative of the samaritan community as he was reviewing samaritan manuscripts at Hebrew Union College in Cincinnati in December 2017. I decided I was ready to accept samaritanism as the closest to religious truth, and I scheduled an appointment for adult circumcision two weeks prior to meeting him. I was literally dressed in a hospital gown lying on the surgical table, but the surgeon took a sample of blood and said my RBC count was too high (I had been diagnosed with secondary polycythemia in 2010.) Talk about being "saved by the bell!"

I did meet him and again in August 2018 at the same place. I continued to believe samaritanism was a better option versus christianity, but I was beginning to be over with any religion and becoming more of a realist deist.

Then 2019 arrived. Both of us began to wake up to what was actually going on! Both of us were vaxxed to the hilt, me doubly so by the military, but I was beginning to question vaccinations by 2018. By the plandemic I was 100% anti-vax. Our three older children by then were married and took it. The oldest took 2 and all the boosters he could. As parents we're now both worried about the older children outliving us! The oldest at 29 had a skin problem on one leg that was diagnosed as pre-cancerous, but none of the older kids have any notion that the vaccine could be responsible.

Thankfully the remaining two are properly educated about all the evils in the world with a proper identification and name for them! Now I'm an anti-semitic deist, hoping to be accepted as a member NA and about to read William Pierce's book "Cosmotheism: Religion of the Future" as it arrives by post today.

It was a slow and ponderous wake up for me. I feel rather stupid that it took me so much time. How many years I was enslaved by propaganda when I could have been working to wake our people up. I could have discussed these things with my parents before they passed. That's the most significant regret of mine amongst many! I hope I can make it up partially for the remaining life the creator/universe gives me.

I'm still a neophyte of sorts, but what I find encouraging is the knowledge this group has, the resistance to christianity and all forms of semitic religion, and the immediate quashing of unruly individuals promoting either christianity or hate. Unfiltered truth and logic FTW IMO.

I just lost my lengthy response to you, William, and am not inclined to retype it. We received your online book order and your email telling me that not only have you sent in your application for NA membership, but so has your wife Amy. That is great! I lost my response when I went back to find my favorite line in your introduction:

...t took 26 years from 1988 to 2014 to finally throw up my hands and exclaim "I can't take it any longer!"

It simply takes some of us longer than others to say ENOUGH! after our Christian upbringings to ditch a lifetime of Semitic spiritual baggage.

Thank you Will! I received the book today so I have some reading to do.

(BTW our applications were delivered last week so they should be in your box if not already in hand.)

Welcome to WB ! It's great to know you have finally broken free of their chains. It's so heartwarming to know that both you and your wife decided to join the NA. I look forward to more of your posts.

[William Leaver]

Thank you Dillon!

I look forward to more of your posts.

Not sure I'll have much to contribute yet, but perhaps when I am confirmed as a member of NA, I might (with permission) post about how I discovered the root problem with christianity which rarely is found online. I've been listening to the "Revilo Oliver’s Reflections on the Christ Myth" audios, which are fascinating and full of historical facts, but I doubt they will move the needle for most normie christians. I have a short 5 minute read about my observations of the virgin birth narrative, which so far no christian has been able to debunk. They generally deflect with ad hominem and continue to remain firmly within their cognitive dissonance/propaganda.

Thanks again Will! The URL wasn't accessible as I'm not a paid subscriber, but I found details at the WJHL website. At least it's just temporary for roof repairs.
