Some people rarely reflect. They declare. They accuse. They wage war — often against shadows. But perhaps the most revealing trait of The Kurgan’s persona isn’t in his theology or rhetoric. It’s in the way he processes failure . Not just endures it — converts it. Justifies it. Sanctifies it. To The Kurgan, the world’s rejection of his ideas isn’t cause for concern. It’s proof that he’s right . He takes silence as confirmation. Isolation as spiritual purity. Failure as evidence of elite status. This isn’t philosophy. This is a psychological fortress — built not to engage reality, but to block it out. 🔁 The Self-Sealing Mindset Psychologists call this a self-sealing belief system . It’s a framework of thinking in which no possible evidence can falsify a person’s worldview — because every challenge becomes proof that the worldview is correct. We see it play out in Kurgan’s behavior: Low book sales? The world can’t handle the truth. No Kurganate community members? Real men...

Every once in a while, The Kurgan attempts to solve all of human nature in one post. In his latest, titled “Implications of the theory of dual brain processing on relations between the sexes” , he claims to have discovered the root cause of most modern conflict between men and women: women are biologically incapable of logic, men are too logical to be understood, and all of this proves… something. It's hard to tell. The irony? For a man claiming left-brain supremacy, the post is a disorganized torrent of emotional reflections, failed marriages, and forgotten toothpaste caps. What follows isn’t science, and it certainly isn’t theology. It’s autobiography disguised as theory. 🧠 A “Theory” With No Author, No Structure, No Proof The essay is built on something he calls the “Dual Brain Processing Theory,” which he attributes to someone named “Gaius Baltar” — yes, like the villain from Battlestar Galactica . He gives no citations, no publication, and no scientific sourcing. He si...

When two strong personalities discuss theology, it's easy for the real issues to get buried under passion or pride. Recently, Vox Day and The Kurgan exchanged views on some important theological questions — namely the nature of the Church, the love of God, and the perpetual virginity of Mary. Both men are intelligent. Both have thought deeply about these matters in their own way. But when you dig into their answers, you find that both approaches rest on fragile foundations — though for different reasons. Here’s a calm, step-by-step look at where each man’s position leads — and where they both fall short of the Catholic faith as it was taught by the Apostles and preserved across the centuries. 📖 The Three Core Questions The Kurgan posed three key questions to Vox: If God established a Church, must it necessarily be infallible and last until the end times? If not, how is that compatible with God being a loving God? Did Mary remain a virgin before and after the birt...

Grifter Logic: When You Sell Olive Oil for the Apocalypse The Kurgan's Mirror Moment “They tie up heavy burdens, hard to bear, and lay them on men’s shoulders; but they themselves are not willing to lift a finger to move them.” — Matthew 23:4 There’s a word The Kurgan loves to use like a hammer: Grifter. Everyone’s a grifter these days — Taylor Marshall, Milo, Voris, James White, Texas Arcane, the cashier at Aldi, probably. It doesn’t matter who you are or what you say — if you don’t parrot his exact flavor of sedevacantist rigidity, you’re a fraud. A wolf. A fake Catholic. A merchant of lies. There’s just one problem: He’s describing himself. 🎭 The Word He Doesn’t Understand Let’s define it: A grifter is someone who deceives others for money — using charm, manipulation, or falsehood, rather than force. The key is fraud . So when Kurgan calls someone a “grifter,” he’s accusing them of knowingly running a spiritual scam for profit. Not just being wrong. Not j...

Theological Analysis: What the Church Actually Teaches ❌ 1. Refusing to Pray for the Dead = Grave Error Catholic doctrine strongly encourages prayer for the dead — especially for enemies and sinners. Even if someone might be in hell, we are not permitted to presume it , since only God judges hearts at the moment of death. “We should not despair of the eternal salvation of persons who have taken their own lives. By ways known to Him alone, God can provide the opportunity for salutary repentance.” — Catechism of the Catholic Church , §2283 This applies even to suicide — let alone theological confusion. In other words: if we are called to pray even for those who appear to have died in sin, how much more should we pray for those whose fate is uncertain? The Kurgan says it’s prideful to pray for the Pope’s soul. The Church says it’s charitable humility . ❌ 2. “If He’s in Hell, What’s the Point?” This shows a complete misunderstanding of the Catholic theology of petition and intercessio...

A Certain Book has Just Expired Reclaiming the Catholic Church… from the Past When The self-published book  Reclaiming the Catholic Church  was released in 2020, the kurgan framed it as a theological nuke: an unanswerable, bulletproof exposé proving once and for all that Pope Francis was a fraud, the hierarchy was corrupt, and only sedevacantists could be real Catholics. But as of this week, there’s one tiny problem: Pope Francis is dead. And with him, so is the central premise of Kurgan’s entire book. We’re now left with a text that’s not just polemical — it’s obsolete . The book hinges on a very specific historical snapshot: “Francis is the problem, and we must resist him now.” Well, time marched on. The problem is gone. And resistance to a corpse is hardly heroic. It’s like writing a fire evacuation manual… for a building that already burned down. What Happens When Your Theology Ages Like Milk? Books survive if they’re grounded in truth, or timeless principle. Kurgan’s boo...

You Can’t Bury a Pope You Denied Existed The Kurgan and the Dead Pope Dilemma If The Kurgan really believed Pope Francis was never valid, the news of his death should mean exactly nothing. And yet… brace yourself. He’s almost certainly going to write about it. A lot. Why? Because despite all his talk — the raging, the rants, the theological cosplay — he needs Francis to be real. He needs a villain to fight. He needs a fake pope to curse. He needs an “us vs. them” storyline where he is the last pure man standing. But now the “them” is gone. The Grand Irony: Commenting Means Legitimizing If you believe Francis was a nobody, a fake, an impostor — you ignore his death like you would the death of a bad actor in a community play. But if you blog about it, analyze it, weep or cheer over it, you’re acknowledging it mattered. Kurgan can't help himself. He’ll mourn, or mock, or “warn the sheep,” but whatever route he takes, he will write. And that writing will expose the very thing he d...

If you've followed The Kurgan long enough, you start to notice a pattern. No, not the paranoid anti-Masonic rants. Not the shirtless pictures of him holding swords, either. I’m talking about something even more revealing: His moral theology has two sets of rules. One for himself . And a very different, merciless one for everyone else. Kurgan’s Rule for Himself: Grace Abounds The Kurgan, by his own admission, was once a materialist, atheist, fornicator, hypnotist, and a believer in past-life regression. And yet — somehow — he found the truth . He changed. He grew. And now he writes Substack sermons denouncing the very type of man he used to be. But we’re not supposed to mention that. That was before his Damascus moment. He is now forgiven. Enlightened. An authority on the one true Church (which exists only in his own mind, of course). He didn’t just get a second chance — he gave it to himself. “I studied obsessively for four years.” “I tested Catholicism and found it ...

The Sound of One Ego Clapping The Kurgan has released yet another post — this time a laundry list of supposed frauds, liars, and "keyboard warriors" he's nobly "Kurganed" for the good of humanity. A valiant public servant, you see. Like the garbage man of the internet. Except instead of picking up trash, he just insults people with bad nicknames and a thesaurus full of slurs. Taylor Marshall becomes Tay-Tay . Milo becomes Yankmypolous . Michael Voris becomes Michelle . James White is put in quotation marks, as if his doctorate is a conspiracy. Texas Arcane? Already run through the meat grinder last week. Even Scott Adams, Andrew Torba, and Bill Gates — yes, Bill freaking Gates — all make the cut. But guess who doesn’t? Me. PadreGeo. His longest, most consistent opponent. The man who publicly dismantled his canonical arguments. The one still attacking his theological house of cards to this day. Not a word. Not a reference. Not even a passive-aggress...

“Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the marriage bed be undefiled.” — Hebrews 13:4 The Kurgan never misses a chance to attack others for their failings, especially in matters of faith. He’s the first to declare someone “not a real Catholic,” denounce “fake clergy,” or assign people to the flames for liturgical imperfection. But when it comes to his own life , a strange silence takes hold. Or worse—an open contradiction. In his latest blog post, “The Cowards,” he casually admits: “I made plenty of errors too. Twice divorced and many women in between. BUT… I am now happily married with a sixth kid on the way.” The problem? He has never mentioned a single annulment . And as far as anyone can tell, he doesn’t recognize any ecclesiastical authority capable of granting one. After all, in his view, the Church has been “fake” since 1958. Which means this supposed champion of tradition and canon law is—by his own admission— on his third marriage, with no canonical process, n...
