He said to love your neighbor as yourself. He didn't just say love your neighbor. You have an individual soul and if you don't love that, you let people walk all over you. Christianity can't exist without self respect. Externally applied self esteem erases self respect. That's why druggies get God to stop being druggies. The find their soul and start respecting instead of poisoning it.
Plus. The scripture. Not the preacher. The authority is in the book, not the man.
Christians are systematically shit on because they are pacifistic through indoctrination. Imagine if Christianity was replaced with a warrior culture where immediately killing your enemies was second nature and altruism was saved for your people only. Imagine a culture where debates weren't had with outsiders, only violence meted out against threats to blood and soil.
Yes and no. They've historically been extremely aggressive when it comes to spreading the meme and retaining power. Nothing else mattered to them, not nations, not blood, not family, just how far can I spread the mind-virus.
Typically they picked on the soft parts of society (outcasts) as their first port of call. The outcasts were used as a pawn in powerbroking deals with the ruling elite. Then they leveraged the outcasts as a cudgel against productive members of society until they were too beaten down to resist.
Sound familiar? I could be describing christian conquest or the rise of the soviet union. Same culture. There's a reason they called their enemies "civilians" (paganos). They saw them as tax cattle to be trampled and squeezed by the army of the faithful.
Their "pacifism" is a later phase in christian culture used to discourage infighting. It's also used to suppress the host society's immune response to foreign christians or jews.
Yes. They used nationalism and the european warrior spirit to remove a competitor to the meme. If they saved any european nations in the process it was incidental. Europeans have been driving out invaders since long before chritianity, that's not something they invented.
In other examples nations were sacrificed to benefit the meme. For example, the welsh were convinced to hold back from fighting off the saxons during the danish invasion because the saxons were fellow christians. Then after the danes were fought off and the saxons were strong again they went right back to erasing the welsh. Christians didn't care, the meme prevaled.
You said earlier the Christianity is "extremely aggressive when it comes to spreading the meme and retaining power". As we are in danger shouldn't we then encourage this resurgence of the aggressive Christianity memetic? Why then are you arguing against it?
Because christianity only promotes loyalty to christianity, not to any nation or ethnic group. The moment it becomes possible to make more christians by opening borders they will. That's how so many jews ended up in europe in the first place: They were seen as a conversion opportunity.
If there were a christian resurgence in the US they wouldn't have any interest in driving out beaners or africans, they'd be focussing on converting them.
and NEIGHBOR does NOT mean stranger. The translation from Hebrew is "neighbor = someone you KNOW and TRUST". YOU are NOT to "Love" they STRANGER. YOu are NOT supposed to HELP heathens. PERIOD. You support evil, you ARE evil. PERIOD. READ the Bible. fags.
Nope. The specific example given in the bible is of someone helping a stranger (and a member of an enemy sect). The message is later underlined as "your neighbour is he who needs you most."
Don't tell me "nope" fag. I'm TELLING you the TRANSLATION from the ORIGINAL Hebrew/Greek/Caldi (Aramaic (Jesus language)) manuscripts. ALSO along with the REST of the Bible, is ACCURATE. DO NOT HELP EVIL. PERIOD.
good samaritan? Meh. There is EVIL in the Bible. If taken in context, the BIG lesson, if you "help" evil (someone you have NOT vetted) YOU deserve what HAPPENS when you deal with evil.
ALSO, "love" thay ENEMY, means DO NOT provoke (for no reason) an enemy. NOT love them LIKE a neighbor. CONTEXT is EVERYTHING.
You're shifting the goalposts. Before you said that your neighbour was someone you know and trust, I pointed out that the example yeshua gave was explicitly that of someone unknown and of unknown trustworthiness.
Now you're saying that that doesn't matter, it only matters whether they're evil or not (something that couldn't be known in that example anyhow since he was unconscious).

What allowed for the very Christian USA's war against our European brothers? Those that fought under the banner of the iron and hooked cross?

If a Christian resurgence had a strong notion of ethnic loyalty would you support it?
