I'm not reporting and some of those do seem needlessly antagonistic but the post doesn't really seem like it fits.

I mean it's anti-post-modernism but there aren't really any products involved at all, in the strict sense there's not any consumerism being described.

So many people donโ€™t know shit about Christianity, and I really blame parents and shitty pastors who just try to make people feel good rather than tell them whatโ€™s right.

Christianity is explicitly ANTI consumerism, and is a reason for Gods wrath.

โ€œAnd the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk:

I have come to understand the feelings I hold towards people who antagonize my beliefs as intense compassion contorted into what, at first, feels like disgust. I understand the sentiment of despising people, and it can be difficult to do, but we must remind ourselves of our own mistakes, levied against theirs, and realize that we arenโ€™t too different. At the end of the day, hatred is a waste of time. The sooner we realize that the feeling of hatred is simply the desire that the person gets better, the more in touch with ourselves we can be, and the closer we can get to helping them and ourselves.

Redpill: Society has lied to you. The world is fucked, but now that you know, you can do something.

Bluepill: Everything's fine. No-one has been lying to you, and there's no need to ask questions.

..

It's also worth noting that the blackpill is a cynical, fatalistic reaction to the redpill, while the whitepill is a more optimistic reaction to the blackpill's excessively negative outlook.

Iโ€™m not religious but I recognize the fact that Christianity is a deeply embedded part of my familyโ€™s history and the culture of the people I come from, tracing my history as far back to Europe as I can.

Whenever I visit European countries I always make a point to visit churches and cathedrals, thereโ€™s something powerful about them that leaves me in awe no matter how often I visit them, the fact Iโ€™m standing where thousands of people for centuries before me stood and where theyโ€™ll stand centuries after me. Honestly the most beautiful examples of European culture and tradition in general.

Iโ€™d consider myself more โ€œspiritualโ€ than religious. I appreciate the traditional Catholic faith of my ancestors, as well as the wealth of culture and history that stems from it.

However, I still have voluntarily gone to church, the last time being after I completed the Camino de Santiago and attended the pilgrimโ€™s mass as well as a mass at the starting location of my pilgrimage. A bit of a side note, but that pilgrimage is easily the most influential event in my life.

Consider for a moment how your life and attitude would change if you had reason to believe the claims of the catholic church to be true. Jesus Christ did not say he came to earth to leave a nice cultural legacy that people could appreciate from a distance. He came and waged war and offered himself up so that you may be free from sin and death and now may live everlasting life with him. Catholicism is so much more than just a cultural relic... it is alive and well! Do you think our ancestors who fought with unbridled fury and dedication for the sake of christendom merely saw the faith as a nice little curiosity? Go look up the story of St. Louis the IX and tell me he didn't actually believe. The church is bold in her proclamations just as our lord was in the new testament. You are either with christ or you aren't. He wants you to be his disciple and he wants to love you and pour out his graces for you but you must trust and have faith that what he tells you is in fact true. The only question i have for you is do you and your family attend the modern 1960s mass? I did not understand catholicism until i attended the true latin mass. Most catholics lose their faith because of the vatican 2 novus ordo mass in my opinion.

I should add that the core concepts themselves are not tied to an ethnicity and a culture because they are fundamental truths that god has chosen to reveal to us. The best way i can describe it is to imagine the truth of marriage. Marriage between a man and a woman is a truth outside of culture and ethnicity but different cultures celebrate weddings differently. Imagine a big time Italian american wedding with all the festivities and traditions and dancing etc. versus a more stoic and restrained northern european wedding with only close family and a few friends. The implementation of the practice of the wedding and ceremonies will vary from culture to culture and this is perfectly fine. but the universal truth behind those ceremonies and customs is that a man and a woman are being joined before god and the community in an exclusive relationship to bring about children and raise them to be good members of society and contribute to their nation and family. You are free to keep your European traditions/art styles/music styles so long as there is nothing objectionable to the Universal catholic truth. Take a look at the Christmas tree tradition, many catholics put up a tree to celebrate the birth of jesus. This is not an explicitly biblical tradition but it comes from our european ethnicity and we kept it around because it does not have anything sinful or objectionable to living a christian life free from sin. However the sinful elements of the pagan europeans have been removed from our roman church like the worshiping of false idols and human sacrifice and orgies and drunken feasts filled with immorality and violations of chastity.

I am not a priest or bishop so the things i say do not carry the full authority of the church but i can explain to you in the best way i can the things i have learned. Your main problem in understanding the christian religion is that you are forgetting the claim of the church to the divine origin of our truths which are revealed by god to man. What this means is the origin of the faith belongs to no one ethnicity exclusively and it did not "develop" over time like pagan religions which are changed by mankind through time. The jews of the old testament are not the jews of today (even jewish rabbis will say this). The jews did not invent or create their religion because it was revealed to them by god and he instructed them through the ages. Many of the things we find strange in the old testament are in fact punishments by god to the people of israel for their unfaithful behavior over time by worshipping pagan gods and indulging in pleasures of the flesh that were sinful. One quick example would be the kosher diet. Why do catholics not keep kosher? because christ established a new covenant that was not restricted to the tribe we refer to as Israel. This new covenant (Catholicism) does not for example have the conditions of the kosher diet placed upon it. In fact to keep a kosher diet as a catholic is a mortal sin which will likely send you to hell. I understand how you link the Christian religion to the middle east but Christ himself is universal and died for all the nations so worshiping christ is not exclusive to one nation. The catholic church respects the differences in ethnicity and culture which is why we have different churches and practices for different regions of the world. They are called "rites" and not many people outside of those specific catholic churches know about them. For example there are Ukranian catholic churches that have a liturgy that incorporates the traditions and culture of the ukranians while maintaining full communion with the teachings of the roman church which is most common in western europe and the USA.

Morality without God is awalys subjective. If your own morals are subjective and unique to you, you have no basis to reject someone for living a life of hedonistic nihilism. The only option you have is to overpower your opposition in order to "win" at your belief system. However when you place the ultimate good in "might makes right" morality becomes strictly tied to physical and temporal power which results in a situation where someone who believed in the "might makes right" doctrine could have their entire family raped and slaughtered in front of them but they would have to say it was justified because they lacked the power to stop it. Sometimes evil can get the upper hand in this world but that doesn't make it right just because they have more power.

I disliked religion until I started learning the history of Christianity by myself, which I found awe-inspiring, and finally started loving Christianity when I went to Granada and Cordoba in a school trip a few years ago, visiting the cathedrals where the Catholics Kings were buried, in all its glory, was one of the best experiences of my life. To think people that were so important in my country's history were buried right where I was, with so much symbolism (full of history and deeper meaning), and that so many people had been there, and will be there, almost brings me to tears. Our culture is so beautiful yet it is being attack day after day, and for a long time I believed those lies, but truth will always prevail. I am not a believer, but I will fight to death with Christians to defend it.

I fully agree. While not being religious myself due to personal reasons I support the institutions and know the fulfillment it gives all those who follow it. Christianity is beautiful

Much the same with me, Iโ€™m not religious but Iโ€™ll always make sure to visit a church, chapel or cathedral if I get the chance to. Iโ€™m never disappointed, truly awe-inspiring monuments from our past.

That does not mean the belief is.ply ceased to exist. It did not vanish. It became ingrained in folklore, legends, and even Christianity itself in the ways of holidays and traditions.

There is also enough material to revive the old Pagan religions today, which is what many are doing.

Also, I said that because you said that Pagans called themselves Wiccan, which shows a massive lack of knowledge on your part.

He would not.

Homosexuality carries a โ€œdue penaltyโ€ (Romans 1:27), โ€œis contrary to the sound doctrineโ€ (1 Timothy 1:10), and is listed among the sins that bar people from the kingdom of God (1 Corinthians 6:9). Despite the attempts of some to downplay these verses, the Bible could not be clearer that homosexuality is a sin against God.

Or have ye not read in the law, how that on the sabbath days the priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are blameless? But I say unto you, That in this place is one greater than the temple. But if ye had known what this meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the guiltless. For the Son of man is Lord even of the sabbath day.โ€ โ€ญโ€ญMatthewโ€ฌ โ€ญ12:3-8โ€ฌ โ€ญKJV

โ€œAnd he said unto them, What man shall there be among you, that shall have one sheep, and if it fall into a pit on the sabbath day, will he not lay hold on it, and lift it out? How much then is a man better than a sheep? Wherefore it is lawful to do well on the sabbath days.โ€ โ€ญโ€ญMatthewโ€ฌ โ€ญ12:11-12โ€ฌ โ€ญKJVโ€ฌโ€ฌ

Itโ€™s not hard to comprehend, You are just a God-Hater who hates Christians. You ignore the word of God because it calls out sin. Homosexuality is unnatural and an abomination.

โ€œBecause that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.โ€ โ€ญโ€ญRomansโ€ฌ โ€ญ1:19-27โ€ฌ โ€ญKJVโ€ฌโ€ฌ

I love Jesus. How could anyone not? He taught love, patience, charity, and selflessess. But he didn't write the Bible, the Bible has been cobbled together by all sorts of people who were not Jesus. And people are prone to flaws. Thus the Bible is prone to flaws.

I showed you a quote from the Lord that says people who work on the Sabbath should die. You showed me a quote that shows otherwise. Ok, fine, but by doing that you show that not everything in the Bible is true, because you yourself don't think people who work Sundays should die even though the LORD said they should.

Not without the Christpill. Even if youโ€™re not religious, thereโ€™s no denying the positive impact that Christianity and its teachings play both personally and societally.

The problem is that people have now substituted the authority of God with the authority of a morally-relativistic state, which has thrown everything into chaos. So the solution to restoring order within society is to acknowledge God as the eternal and final authority figure.

I came to most of the same realization even though as a person I have just about every influence possible to think of god as false and something we can move past, something outdated and irrelevant.

This is the sort of cancer created by individualism, the end result is everyone sees themselves of their own god, and I think that's why christianity stresses the idea of man as fallen so hard.

Nobody is saying religion isn't corruptable by man, of course it is, but so is atheism as with no moral foundation you can replace it with anything you like, that's why your face is rubbed into politics and faulty ideals none stop because that becomes their badge instead, diversity, multiculturalism, critical theory, a desire for a monoculture of fucking weak fat little worker drones all the same shade of brown.

I'm gonna assume you're referring to pride parade gays, or people who rub it in everyone's face. Not just normal gay people.

However, I genuinely am curious as to what you mean by "making their sexuality public". Do you mean being in a gay relationship, holding hands or kissing like normal couples do in public? Or do you mean flaunting it as something unique and special?

Maolchalann ยท 7 points ยท Posted at 06:09:00 on May 15, 2020 ยท (Permalink)

My wife grew up an atheist. In the first two photos she was sort of a typical, zeitgeist liberal/left-libertarian. She actually shaved her hair off for charity, not any political reason (it was all donated for cancer-patient wigs if I recall correctly).

We met online several years ago in a political discussion group. By that time she'd already drifted away from liberalism towards more of a libertarian position. People would argue there all day about all sorts, from all ideological perspectives. I would just go in to talk about Christ and Scripture. I wouldn't start massive arguments or fights, but rather I tried my best to just be a good example of a Christian (something that today, years later, I still fall short of).

She took an interest in what I was saying, so she messaged me privately about it because she said she was starting to believe in God again and that she found what I talk about inspiring. We ended up talking a lot about it, pretty much every day. That's how we initially got to know each other. She started attending an Orthodox parish not long after, and was later received into the Church. We got engaged about half a year after that when I moved to America, and we had our wedding exactly a year later from then.

I think if you were to ask her why she had such a change, it would be that throughout, she had a strong desire to know the truth about life, our world - and earnestly following through with that desire lead her not only to God, but to a better way of life.

Thatโ€™s what I think separates someone who will be a lifelong atheist, from someone who will find Christ: a desire to seek the truth. Itโ€™s certainly what brought me to God. For is God not Truth itself? When Christ says to seek and keep on seeking and to knock and keep on knocking, I canโ€™t help but think this is what He was referring to.

I don't think you understand. You're going to go up there, and you're going to have to explain why you are not in communion with rome. And you're going to say: "Uhhhh... I didnt like the pope?" I really hope you have a better justification than that. You can't just switch churches because you dislike the pope. What are you going to do if we get a better pope who dislikes immigration and rails against muslims? Are you going to switch again?

You can be a catholic and be anti immigration, you can even be a catholic and dislike the pope! If you are a christian you know that your eternal soul is more important than your finite excistance on this earth, so I don't understand why you would decide to rebel against Rome.

I'm Christian thanks you very much. But if I wasn't, that'd be even more sad for your church of cucks.

My "if" referred to you saying "if we have a better Pope at some point" but you won't have a better one. Half your Popes were terribles Christians, even worse catholics, who were greedy, corrupted and had sex with whores. And yet here you are, following them.

_user109_ ยท 0 points ยท Posted at 09:44:00 on May 15, 2020 ยท (Permalink)*

Then you would understand that your eternal soul is more important than whatever happens in this world.

The only argument you make is still the "pope bad, so church also bad" fallacy. It's not about following the pope, it's about being a part of the church that the Lord built.

Have fun in your sect, we'll always be waiting for you to return to the one true church. God bless your soul.

Blustof ยท 0 points ยท Posted at 09:46:56 on May 15, 2020 ยท (Permalink)

Funny since catholicism was once considered a sect. Then it became too big and started crumbling. The one true church follows blindly men indulging in sins, but since it was a good one 2000 years ago, there's no way it could have become evil... Right?

You'd rather let a human control your faith than the Bible by the way. At least protestants trust words of God more than a leader who repeatedly open his heart to evil.

Good luck for your soul.

And she is neither. Eastern Orthodox can trace their church back to Apostolic Succession just as much as the Catholics can. They even call themselves the Orthodox Catholic Church.

There was a schism early on in the church over the disagreement of Filioque (whether the Holy Spirit proceeded just from the Father or of both the Father and the Son - silly to me, personally, but I'm sure the church figures have their reasons).

The actual real disagreement in my opinion was the granting of the Pope an authority over the rest of the Church - what the Eastern Orthodox see as a Monarchy of the Pope rather than the Ecumenical Council of Bishops which all seek to reach consensus to make church decisions.

Consoom religion.

Consume being degenerates unless the fear of the magic sky wizard forces you to act civil.

Donโ€™t teach your kids morality, just teach them to do what the bible says and fear a fake god, and you can rape kids and abuse your fellow man and so long as you get on your knees and deepthroat godโ€™s wooden cross, all is forgiven and you can go to heaven, where you get to sit around and suck godโ€™s real dick for all eternity.

Advocate rationality, advocate free thinking. You get no context from these pictures. She couldโ€™ve been a good person before or she could be a horrible person in both.

Jesus didnโ€™t give you the computers you downvote this comment on or the internet you communicate on. Science did.

Faith is good in moderation, but you all expect to praise and coom every time religion is mentioned and fail to see the hypocrisy and consoomerism of your religious fanaticism.

Remember, Christ would disagree with nearly every facet of modern christianity.

Wrong. Let's go down the list, shall we?

French Revolution: lol let's abolish everything that has to do with the Church (including the fucking calendar) and make up a new secular religion where "Reason" is God. And let's commit atrocities in the Vendee and decapitate our king and literally anyone against the Revolution and set up the first surveillance state to root out traitors (sound familiar?). You can make an argument that terrorism as we know it today stems from the tactics of the Republicans and Jacobins.

Bolshevik Revolution + USSR: let's brutally murder the Tsar and his entire family and dynamite churches and execute Orthodox priests and cause famine killing millions in Ukraine and Kazakhstan and legalize abortion (first in the world), abolish marriage and the family and then try to export this revolution to the rest of the world causing untold suffering in places like Cuba and East Germany and Angola and Czechoslovakia and Afghanistan and Mozambique and Hungary and North Korea and Zimbabwe and Ethiopia and Yemen and Vietnam

Mexico (1929): haha fuck religious people let's murder them and force state atheism - see Cristero War

Spanish Republic: same as Mexico only also selling themselves out to the Soviets by sending their gold to Moscow

Chinese Communists: Let's kill 50 million people then tear down 5000 years of Han Chinese history and roll over protesters in tanks in Tiananmen Square then harvest the organs of dissenters while still alive and set up and Orwellian-doesn't-even-cut-it surveillance state. (Yes I know many of these last few are post-1960 but fuck it the same Party from 1949 still rules China today)

What about every single war fought in the name of religion or that used religion as an excuse? It dwarfs your list to the point it is so small i cannot see it anymore.

Plus most cases you listed have everthing to do with the Fall of Monarchies and little to do with secularism. Monarchy held Russia together, Monarchy held France together, Monarchy held China together, Monarch held Spain together. Humans can live without a god, but they cannot live in democracy. Democracy is letting the monkeys run the show. What is the first thing a monkey will do? Vote for more bananas! Hence why the 20th century was the bloodiest in history. Nearly all monarchies ceased to exist and unprepared idiots rose to power and fucked it up.

Religion differs across the world, the concept of civilization does not. Stable governments and healthy socities breed stable people and healthy people. No matter the religion.

So in my view the problem is not a lack of religion, but the fact that the sychos are running the show. As they tend to be fierce atheists and devout marxists people assume thats why its all going down. The problem does not lie in the lack of god, it lies in the lack of common sense.

Communism is living and breathing lunacy. You can be secular and not be a communist.

What about every single war fought in the name of religion

Oh great, a whataboutism. Fine, it seems you already have an anti-religion bias and I don't think you'll be swayed by anything I say. You'll just go "muh Inquisition, muh Wars of Religion, muh Reformation"

little to do with secularism

Wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong. Literally everything I listed was born out of a visceral hatred of religion and anything having to do with it. Marxism hates religion.

And you know that the whole monarchy system is not independent of religion, like the whole "the king derives power from God and is a divine agent" thing, right? If you hate religion you're gonna go kill/depose the king.

You can be secular and not be a communist.

Not all secularists are marxists but all marxists are secularists.

Hah, neither secularists nor bolsheviks believe in an objective moral standard -- Morality comes from God, if there is no God, there is no moral standards... except for what the oh-so-benign state (be it Communist China or the UN or Secular Sweden) imposes

Also pretty much no human society ever has been irreligious (for long, at least...) if not at gunpoint.

Depends: If we're talking islam then i'll probably get banned as i believe it is the most vicious concept every conceived.

So lets assume you're saying i have an anti christian bias. I was baptized catholic six months after birth and my practicing catholic family members (paternal grandparents) were very nice people. My name and my brother's names the names of christian saints. Altho i've made a concious decision to be agnostic in my beliefs i dont think i've left the church. Unless i'm excommunicated by order of the Pope in Rome ill be registered as a catholic as long as i live. So letd get that out of the way.

You'll just go "muh Inquisition, muh Wars of Religion, muh Reformation"

I don't think think the christian faith itself is responsible for those conflicts. The faith is one thing and people who follow it are another. Wars are fought by people. What i was saying is that religion has been used as an excuse by people (who dont represent god and chirst in any way shape or form because they were mortals) to wage wars that were percentually bloodier than modern wars.

Wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong. Literally everything I listed was born out of a visceral hatred of religion and anything having to do with it.

People hated the ones that used religion to fuck with other people. Not the concept of religion, but how badly it has been abused. There are churches today that are comparable to big corporations. Preaching shit that its not even in the bible and charging money from the "flock". The rise of secularism came from the natural desire of men to express himself freely and not be controlled by anyone else. It is benign.

Marxism hates religion.

True. But marxism is a dogmatic retarded ideology created to control people. Its a cult. You cant blame secularism for marxism. Secular thought brought way more good ideas than bad ideias.

And you know that the whole monarchy system is not independent of religion, like the whole "the king derives power from God and is a divine agent" thing, right? If you hate religion you're gonna go kill/depose the king.

The monarchy derives its power from the fact they command an army, a government and enourmous wealth and normal people don't have that. The whole "divine right to rule" is what european's nobles used to legitimize themselves from the 500s to the 1700s. But by no means that was the thing keeping them in power. They were in power as long as they made the system work. When a monarch was hated he was overthorwn by another who took his place, or by peasants that had zero idea on how to run a country and were massacred by the other monarch's armies.

Not all secularists are marxists but all marxists are secularists.

Yep, not all christians fought in the crusades but all crusaders were christians. Meaning absolutely nothing.

, neither secularists nor bolsheviks believe in an objective moral standard -- Morality comes from God, if there is no God, there is no moral standards... except for what the oh-so-benign state (be it Communist China or the UN or Secular Sweden) imposes

Morality develops in any community in order for said community to work. Lets take african villages for example. If one dude goes raping all the women than that dude is causing problems. So the villagers gather and kill said dude or bannish him. Morality comes naturally because human society does not work without it.

Also pretty much no human society ever has been irreligious (for long, at least...) if not at gunpoint.

Alright here is the thing: Humans need to believe in stuff that they cannot verify. Yes we live "without religion" im the west, but people make up their own "truths". A housewife reads on tv that giving supermakertmilk to an infant is bad. So she creates the belief that she should breastfeed. Donald Trump says hes going to fix the US. No one knows but people belief it to be true and vote for him. We need to believe in things we cannot prove. This is religion. There is no proof of god, but people believe. There is no proof that marxism works, but idiots believe. We never lived without religion because everything is religion. 90% of what you believe you have been convinced to believe.

I wrote this more for myself than to answer you, because the way you spoke made me it clear you are a chirstian and the entire basis of my argument is comming from an agnostic standpoint. From thinking freely. But be assured i'm neither a hater of religion nor a marxist, if that makes you feel any better.

Notice how the left almost never, en mass, attack Christ directly? They know how dangerous that would be.

I'm just putting this out there, and I'm speaking as a Bible believing Christian myself, but you have to be real careful of "Christian" and "Orthodox" religions. They can get real cult-like real quick. I don't know what all the little details on that cross are and what they mean, nor do I know for sure why she has her head covered, but be real careful. There are plenty of "Christian-like" religions out there that claim Christianity as their basis but get off on really weird tangents. If you're being told something other than what the Bible itself says, don't just blindly believe anything.

Probably not, honestly. I'm sure some would say it's still better, but it wouldn't get as positive of a response. And considering how some women are treated in Islam, they wouldn't all be wrong. Some religions can be just as bad as degeneracy, and that includes some denominations of Christianity.

She's a zealot, which is an orthodox christian extremist. She is now a nun at the Novi Stjenik monastery in Serbia, according to her twitter. Although I'm not religius, I respect religion and the Serbian orthodox church, but the zealots are nutjobs and the regular church and most of the people treat them like nutjobs.

I live near the mountain called Fruska gora, which has around 17 regular monasteries and I visited most of them, so I pretty much had a glimpse into it. There is one zealot community near the house of my gf there and the people there do not seem alright. Lots of ex junkies and criminals who are now religius fanatics and live like a cult. The atmosphere near that place is just eerie. Nothing like the regular church. Nothing against religion, but taking it too far can also be bad, just like the girl in this post.

Forgive my ignorance, but what defines an Orthodox Christian? Sometimes you get kinda lost in the denominations and I'm unfamiliar with them in particular.

Verliezen ยท 6 points ยท Posted at 03:27:02 on May 15, 2020 ยท (Permalink)

My bro is Eastern Orthodox, from my perspective it is more like Catholicism than say being a Baptist which is what our parents are. His wife will wear scarves and they have the icon art in the house. We have the more traditional catholic in parts of the family and he can take communion at their church, but the Baptistโ€™s cannot.

jukozo ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 06:38:57 on May 15, 2020 ยท (Permalink)

Three main differences are iconography, not needing to be confirmed after baptism , and only recognising the Pope as the bishop of Rome.

FickleShame ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 07:16:45 on May 15, 2020 ยท (Permalink)

So, there's five broad categories of Christians-

First you have Catholicism which traces it's history all the way back to Saint Peter as the first Pope. The central argument of Vatican is that one can't be redeemed except by faith and acts- its not enough to be faithful but one must also act in godly ways. The Vatican also argues it's own supremacy- literally that the Pope is God's voice on earth and his authority is absolute.

Then you have the Orthodox churches. These are churches which were affiliated with the Vatican right up to the point where they broke off from the Catholic Church. Most Orthodox churches are regional in nature- Russian, Greek, Egyptian, etc- and are lead by Patriarchs. They tend to be very esoteric, lacking the modernization trend that the Vatican put itself through on John Paul II and his predecessor's orders. While much of the theory surrounding the Orthodox churches are the same as Catholic, they tend to retain many of the older traditions the Vatican rejected, and they do not believe in the absolute authority of the Pope. As the name implies, Orthodox Christians tend to be very old fashioned and very traditional.

Then you have the Protestants. Lutherans, Evangelicals, Anglicans, and other groups that broke off from the Catholic Church in the wake of Martin Luther and the Reformation. These groups broadly believe in faith alone- Martin Luther fatally arguing that those who believe would inevitably act in godly ways- and tend to be very idiosyncratic. They have their own canon as well.

Fourth, you have religious communities. Quakers, Amish, 7th Day Adventists, Calvinists. These groups tend to live their faith. I'm going to be lazy and lump these in with religious orders- Benedictine monks, Jesuits, etc- as well. Not much to add here beyond the degree to which they practice their faith.

And fifth you have the wacky cultists. This ranges from the reasonably benign- Mormons- to groups that are borderline terrorists.

In general ideas of hope, peace of mind and salvation but the biggest product in my opinion is Answers to questions that torment humans in the deepest level.

  • What is my porpuse in life?

  • What happens when i die?

  • Do i have a soul?

  • Does it matter if im good or evil?

  • etc

Im not saying this are bad things, fuck im not even denyng christianity values shaped the modern world in a lot of aspects from law to philosofy and was a good tool to keep people in line under the fear of a ''bad place'' where you go if you are evil.

I think you can achieve all of the questions above without the need to numb yourself by ideas created, teached and pushed by other men thousends of years ago . even less when you are teached god is in a church or he requires you to follow the bible (which contradicts a lot) or be damned for all eternity

I would rather participate in a tradition of charity and goodwill that has been upheld for generations than to consume temporary pleasures. How exactly is religion an aspect of consumer culture? Religion inspires us to look to what is eternal, not that which is temporary.

I hate to be so blunt but itโ€™s simply not real. The likelihood of any religion being true is slim. Nothing is truly eternal, regardless of what you consume from your church to justify yourself. charity and goodwill can be upheld regardless of what club youโ€™ve joined. Also, how much would you say you contribute to this goodwill and charity?

Are you a retard? Do you not read any philosophy older than 100-200 years old? Alright Ima run through this one quickly. Aristotle's unmoved mover states that there must be something eternal that the universe rests on, the big bang illustrates that this cannot be the universe itself due to having a definitive beginning, therefor something must be bigger than the universe. You could say multiverse or you could say some religion's god, but the multiverse theory was created by a guy who beat his wife, and Christianity was started by a guy who never once put pen to paper. So yeah, its more of a leap of faith to be an atheist considering, oh, maybe all we know about metaphysics. Retard.

zzaannoo9 ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 14:27:19 on May 15, 2020 ยท (Permalink)

so you think that because the universe is alive it must be alive forever? And you thing itโ€™s because of some old man in the sky? Also why are you getting so offended? Itโ€™s only my opinion.

JohnnyNubPotato ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 14:39:25 on May 15, 2020 ยท (Permalink)

Incredible. You don't understand basic philosophy. Imagine my shock.

I never said the universe is alive, only that it must rest on something due to the universe NOT being eternal. Something eternal must exist or else the universe can't exist because something doesn't come from nothing. Or you could say something comes from nothing, seeing how badly you misunderstood my reply. "Some old man in the sky" seriously? You really think any Christian actually believes that?

Because your faith in a universe magically appearing from nothing/the multiverse is intellectually dishonest and directly leads to degeneracy.

You are incredibly pretentious. Also are you telling me that all Christian donโ€™t believe in a god in heaven? Perhaps you could maybe help me understand why everything canโ€™t come from nothing

JohnnyNubPotato ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 18:07:31 on May 15, 2020 ยท (Permalink)

Because that goes against literally everything we know about philosophy and science and leads to ideologies the center around meaningless which directly leads to degeneracy. Seriously, are you really going to say something came from absolutely nothing and that nothing is eternal? Nice faith bud. Also heaven is not the same thing as sky, don't try me with that bait and switch bullshit.

Whats the difference? To me she just got a better picture of herself on the right. The pictures on the left dont show anything rude or negative. Just because someone isn't religious doesn't mean they are automatically lost or in bad habits. I just find it odd to asume someones spiritual journey of a picture.

Be careful say any abrahamic religion is good. Muslims are the descendants of Abrahamโ€™s bastard child.

Iโ€™m sorry but I didnโ€™t mean to put Muslims. According to the Bible Abraham had an illegitimate child with a servant. That child went on to father the race of people that eventually founded the Muslim religion.

He is the definition of a bastard is as follows: A person born to parents not married to each other. Abraham and the servant (I forget her name) where not married, therefore Ishmael is a bastard.

The definition from the dictionary! What more do you want? He was an illegitimate child at described in Genesis 16. The modern word for illegitimate child is bastard. Therefore he is a bastard.

Iโ€™m a bible believing Christian. You have to be saved by belief in the Lord Jesus Christ in order to be saved. They arenโ€™t any closer to heaven than they were before, but maybe theyโ€™ll get saved one day.

Iโ€™m kinda confused rn so if someone can please explain to me it might help me understand. It seems that everyone in the comments is talking about how much worse of a person she seems to have been before joining a religion. Are you guys just saying people who donโ€™t have a religion are just worse humans or what because like I said Iโ€™m a bit confused.

I'd say people without religion are more misguided and more easily lead astray.

Christianity wants to impress us?

How about at least the two main branches of the original Church finding a way to agree and to become one again?

Then might talk of truth over dogma, abstract over material, humility over pride, mind/spirit over mater/temptation, not sound hollow.

If and only when Christianity transcends the mundane stupidity and corruption of regular institutions can it be considered to be what it claims to be, a path to what is, for lack of a better term, Holy/Divine.

Until then, it's not much better than the over four thousand other religions/superstitions ... it just has more adherents.

Even as a christian, I see no significant difference in these photos, and I don't think God does either. Taking off her glasses and putting on a scarf is not proof of a significant lifestyle change, and the photos on the left could easily also have been of a devout person.
