Julius Evola (staunch pagan) recognized that entirety of Waffen-SS was Christian.
"of ascetic-military organization that is held together by the principles of 'loyalty' and
'honor,' must form the basis of the new state." As mentioned, Evola held the SS, which Himmler strove to design according to the model of the Teutonic Order, to be this elite.
The castles of the SS Order, with their "initiations," the emphasis on transcending the purely human element, the prerequisite of physical valor, as well as the ethical
requirements (loyalty, discipline, defiance of death, willingness to sacrifice,
unselfishness), strengthened Evola in his conviction. He also was of the opinion that the ethics of the SS were borrowed from the Jesuits".
