Christianity is truth,. Even if it is not, you should act as if it is.

submitted by AntiPostmodernist to whatever 2.3 yearsFeb 9, 2023 20:03:27 ago (+7/-3)     (whatever)

Christianity can also be pretty much anything and take pretty much any form.

You want it to be nationalist? It can be that. You want it to be globalist? It can be that, too.

Just do as the medieval priest class had done, and simply speak as if the religion supports your political preferences, there's bound to be a way you can convince people that it does.

So, I'd like to remind the objectors in here that there is nothing to object to.

Religion is useful, it is the vital fantasy, the little madness, the unquestionable assumptions about reality that allows all society to function without thinking itself into the madness of nihilism.

We cannot live on reason alone, we require the unreasonable faith in some unobtrusive claim in order to keep ourselves grounded in the other articles of faith that follow.

Morality, law, government, countries, knowledge, money, and more.

Most civilization is based upon having blind faith in the existence of various abstract concepts that have no real purchase in reality apart from the trust people put into them.

Nothing truly has value or meaning (definition / categorization) on its own, we humans impose these things upon the world and conceptual entities.

There is no world of forms, no objective judges who hand these things down to us. We make things uo because they are useful to us.

The Christian story and its elements (supernatural and mundane) may or may not exist, but this is a secondary concern from us, the truth is important to some people, but for most they are willing to forsake the truth in order to go along with what works.

People are unambitious pragmatists by nature. Most have even forsaken their duty to bear descendants for the bare minimum of a comfortable or pleasant existence.

These stories and the elements found within are useful in making people conduct themselves with decency.

As a mythological story, it may even benefit the nonbelievers who go along with the practices of the faith anyways, stories shape our minds, how they function, and how they influence our behavior.

In the absence of the Christian mythology what has taken its place is the cultural narrative introduced to us by hostile groups. Both in our carefully curated knowledge of history, and in the copious amounts of media designed to be propaganda.

Our instincts to the religious impulse are hijacked by those who close the vacuum in our psyches with whatever filling is most useful to their purposes.

This is why I advocate for adopting the Christian religion, it's traditions and practices, and the respect shown to its venerated figures, most of all being the lord Christ Jesus and God almighty father in heaven.

There isn't all that much to hate or disrespect in either, to be honest, objectively they aren't that bad, and anything which you may find objectionable in either are able to be ignored or discarded at your leisure.

Christianity should be openly promoted and spoken of as if it were true and good, even if you beleive otherwise.

Not for the benefits of yourself or other in some other world, but for those which exist in this world.

It also feels good to "believe", even if you are just pretending, the performance of belief feels great.

Not to mention the amount of rhetorical influence the avowment of strong faith gives to your words.

You can treat it like how you would your other LARPing, such as that regarding history, memes, or fiction.

Believe in it, even if you don't. Profess belief and act as though you were truly devout. It will be easy for you to invest yourself in the faith even as an unbeliever.

The enemy we face had clearly aligned themselves with Satanism, so going the righteous crusader route is particularly effective as an angle right now.

Unless this is a jewish trick to guide us in the direction of reviving the moral majority movements of the years between president George Bush II and the 1970s.

My brothers in Christ, I say to you, Deus vult!

Constructive criticism at its finest. Well done, charlatan.
