It is a dangerous pursuit to quote Scripture without understanding the context. A hit and run theology is man made and filled with relative morality. All your quotes are accurately presented but the Bible was written for believers with few exceptions. I am not demeaning your post but either you have the spiritual capacity to comprehend what you wrote or you don’t. Humans don’t define God, God defines Himself. What is lacking in your post is grace. You present a harsh God who is waiting to bop you over the head with a club if you make one little mistake. God is love who will seek you out until the day you breathe your last breath.

Or the royals can convert.

Those “evil deeds” resulted in the liberation of Spain and the crusades after 500 years of bleeding heart pacifism in the face of totalitarian islamic aggression that took over 50% of Christian lands and Christians.

The Inquisition was a bureaucracy created for a role and once it was achieved (the removal of exmuslim false Christians and elimination of Cathars) like all current bureaucracies they had to find something else to do (Jews and witches and heretics). I can support their role to remove fase islamic Christians but not what they did afterwards.

Christian morality made the west but HAS to be, and has been, fought for and if that means NOT being so “nice: then so be it. That was why the conquistadors were so cruel: 500 years of fighting muslims.

If the west wins we go back to our values, islam or communists win, and they are lost forever. These ethics came from JON but in the west most abided by them religious or not.

Marx may have written das Kapital but the role of his paymaster (Engels) ensured that communism was changed into NOT an idealistic (and impossible) equal society for all, but a totalitarian one to ensure that the elite (Engels and his friends) would always stay in control and by eliminating the middle classes close their border and thus become true aristocrats with the rest of us becoming serfs once again.

The Christian religion, and by that I mean the idealistically, if false St Paul version, ISt that espoused by any organized church and especially that in the Vatican. But few practise it in reality as all organized churches are about power and control of the masses, no matter how optimistic they were at the start

Religion is a personal contract between a god or gods and an individual and NO ONE has the right to tell them what to do or what not to do WRT that belief.

THX is an idealist atheist and follower of Rand. He cops a lot of abuse just for being that but a lot of his points are valid BUT he constantly confuses Christianity the religion with Christian churches, i.e., with that as practised by the churches which decidedly is NOT Christianity but a version warped to suit those in control. In some cases, it was necessary to warp their views just to survive the islamic onslaught but they then never removed such changes (e.g., the Inquisition)

This has been a little disconnected as I have had multiple interruptions and RL now prevents any tidying up.

Every time I read such information about Gross Britain, the same thought comes – and always shocks me: how thin is the layer of common sense and dignity, and how deep is the misery and baseness in human souls, if even in a country with such a long tradition and large aristocracy, such a submission and suicidal ideology is possible! Among the aristocracy!

“The upper classes of Britain at least once defended their own country and culture, even if in a more cynical view they were defending their own privilege. Now they can’t or won’t even do that: such is the intellectual rot that has permeated every class and every party in England.” – (wileyvet)

are you inter mating that we should roll and accept these pagan child raping women abusing individuals way of life or have u i read this wrong IF it is that wish us to accept this barbaric life style either you are one of the Ideology or stark raving mad

Marxism is based on atheism as is Ms. Rand’s philosophy. Marxists and objectivists have a similar hatred of Christianity.

What you always fail to see THX, is that now all that call themselves Christian are Christian. So that’s where you are missing it. You cannot lump all that call themselve Christian to be Christian. That is what you are doing and that is not possible. For example “Catholics” are referred to as “Christian” and yet they are not. And so their evil deeds, the Spanish Inquisitions, for example, are attributed to Christians.

It doesn’t mean they are valid observations. Personally, I will stick to the Bible, old and new.

THX is a bitter, nasty Objectivist whose sole reason d’etre is to destroy all that is good and replace it with his totalitarian beliefs.

I don’t care which Christian writers promote this garbage.

The wicked are not so, but are like chaff that the wind drives away.

Therefore, the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous; for the Lord knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.
