"Nationalism, in essence, is a dynamic process, and only in this case is the dynamic spirit of religion always in harmony with the dynamic, ideal national movement. Fascism, understood as that dynamic, ideal national movement, is characterized by the fact that it has no static forms. In other words, fascism is dynamic even in its forms. From this dynamic aspect of it arises ideal tolerance, which, as we have mentioned, is dynamic in nature; moreover, one might say that this ideal tolerance is the dynamic spirit of all forms of religion and idealism. And fascism, while dynamic in nature even in its forms, has as its specific distinguishing feature an ideal tolerance of a dynamic nature. Through this ideal tolerance, it coincides both with the general idealism of humanity and with the religious spirit inherent in the Christian religion and ethics. <...>

<...> It is now sufficiently clear that, in order to achieve a perfect relationship between religion and nationalism, it is important that every religious form correspond to the character of the individual or the nation. In other words, the statism of religion or idealism, corresponding to the static side of the human being - to human statism - creates one another.
Christianity is a form of religion that corresponds to the Lithuanian character. Therefore, the ideology of the Nationalists is grounded in Christian ethics."


"Tautiškumas, iš esmės, dinamiška tėkmė, ir tik šiuo atvėju dinamiškoji religijos dvasia visada suderinama su dinamiškuoju tautiškai idealiniu judėjimu. Fašizmas, suprantamas tuo dinamiškuoju tautiškai idealiniu judėjimu, turi tą esmingą pobūdį, kad jis neturi ir statiškų formų. Vadinas, fašizmas ir savo formose yra dinamiškas. Iš tos dinamiškosios jo pusės išplaukia idealinė tolerancija, kuri, kaip minėjom, yra dinamiško pobūdžio; dar daugiau, galima sakyti, toji idealinė tolerancija yra visų religijos ir idealizmo formų dinamiškoji dvasia. O fašizmas, net savo formose būdamas dinamiško pobūdžio, savo differentia specifica turi dinamiško pobūdžio idealinę toleranciją. Tąja savo idealine tolerancija jis sutampa ir su bendruoju žmonijos idealizmu ir su religine dvasia, glūdinčia krikščioniškojoj religijoj ir etikoj. <...>

<...> Dabar jau yra pakankamai aišku, kad, siekiant tobulo religijos ir tautiškumo santykiavimo, yra svarbu tai, kad kiekviena religinė forma turi atitikti žmogaus arba tautos charakterį. Vadinas, religijos arba idealizmo statizmas, atitikdamas žmogaus statiškąjai pusei, žmogaus statizmui, vienas antrą kuria.
Krikščionybė yra tokia religijos forma, kuri atitinka lietuvių charakteriui. Todėl krikščioniškąja etika yra pagrįsta tautininkų ideologija."
