Why the men of the house need to be trained as warriors first - before they become anything else. That is the reaction of a man who has never been in a fight in his life. Keep in mind, Sweden is one of the most non-secular countries on the planet. Up to 70-80% of Swedes are non-religious. So the idea that Christianization somehow made them weak-willed is easily argued against here. What you see here is excessive generational comfort at play. There is more complexity to this illusory state and total brainwash than simple cowardice. The hard truth is that these people got too comfortable too quickly, too lucky to have lived fended off from the real world for so long. They've uprooted masculinity and celebration of physical prowess from their society because they no longer saw any value in it. They've become soft, not gentle. Gentleness requires strength and inner power. Softness, on the other hand - is a symptom of a lack of temperament and character - and bad parenting. And the world is a brutal teacher, isn't it? A village of warriors rarely ever goes to war - because no one dares attack. But a village of weak men dies out easily, and the first thing that's taken from them is their women. A man must first become a protector, he must be raised on the heroic and mythical deeds of other great men who came before. And only then may he actually humble and gentle himself. One simply does not work without the other. <iframe src="https://archive.org/embed/sweden-an-illegal-immigrant-forces-his-way-into-the-home-of-a-swedish-couple-the" width="560" height="384" frameborder="0" webkitallowfullscreen="true" mozallowfullscreen="true" allowfullscreen></iframe>
