>because it helps me be white
whiteness is not an act but a state of being, the essence of which is typified by being a teanigger who solves his problems by running away and establishing a polity apart from the people who hurt his feelings

My friend, look into forumposting. You will have to trade levity for namefagging and the associated ego contests though. It's at least a way to hold people to some kind of standard quality of discussion. Consistent morons just find themselves getting permabanned. That greentexting and reductionism that goes on here won't fly, but if you're serious they will take you as seriously as you do yourself. -Od bless.

dios mio

>My friend, look into forumposting.

I used to go on forums and I used to like those a lot more because imageboards encourage hivemind mentalities instead of actual discussion which is why I think they are harmful and wastes of complete time honestly. The problem is most forums are dead or inactive.

dubs of accuracy

r/TrueChristian is unironically really really good. only good subreddit IMO

It's just people talking about politics instead of the actual religion.

That's my big problem with Christianity, it's concerned with the material world and modern politics too much. Jews and muslims talk way more about their actual religions and when they do discuss politics, its usually related to their survival, they don't talk about topics like transgender bathrooms or abortion because it's not relevant to their cultures.

>>11251138
are you kidding me with the Muslims, they are fucking obsessed with bringing their religion into politics, theres barely even a distinction between the two

>>11251120
is it true christian or filled with followers of germanic heresy?

>>11251120
yeah, stay there

>>11251142

I just assumed that with the muslims but I know for a fact that jews talk about politics way less unless if its related to survival because I know a bunch of jews and they talk about their religion way more, i'm inexperienced around muslims. I just don't like modern politics taking priority over worship it's vanity.

>>11251144
a lot of orthodox

>>11251151
jewish religious discussion, ie. talmudic stuff is an entirely other level of autism. I think they have literally evolved to think and argue that way

>>11251201

In what way? I'm friends with a bunch and have seen they discuss religion more on their online communities but I've never been in a synagouge as I have no synagoge around me currently.

>>11251120
underrated post

>>11251233
they torture the texts in a truly unique way. I can't really explain it very well but it ends up with them doing stuff like putting wires up around Manhattan so that the entire island counts as indoors on their holy days

the only comparable thing I think is some of the christian scholastic autism

>>11251247

see, that's the kind of thing I would like in my life. I'm not jewish ethnically or religiously (i'm native,irish, and french on my dad's sideand my mom's side is mutt and native as I don't know that side well at all), but I haven't connected with Christianity very well, and it seems like too many churches are concerned with modern politics over the actual religion, I live in a really conservative area and I drove by a sign today that said "no religion, jesus". I can't ever engage in a religion like judaism though because the nearest one is like 100 miles away from me and I'm not sure how long I have on this Earth as my whole nervous system feels fucked up currently.

I think people should follow what the bible says and church should be about worship, but I feel like not a lot of people get me because nobody in the west apart from jews and muslims (the latter of which i've heard are just larping nationalists) actualyl cares about religion, the ones that do are too political.

idk why I feel the way I feel because u said they evolved to do it, though that's probably just antisemitism from you

>>11251009
I see that you're a fellow based post-modern Christian, keep up the good work my man!! Christ, not Nietzsche, praise God!!

>>11251285
that was just antisemitism from me, i am highly antisemitic while also admiring of Jews.

and I mean go ahead, they do accept converts, you have to really study though.

>>11251302


I can't, I live too far away from a community

>>11251294

I do not understand what you posted at all

>he thinks there aren't serious Christians in the world any more

Not everyone's a LARPer, Anon.

>>11251009
I’ve heard good things about infinity chans’s Christian board.

>>11251285
have you read the bible? a big part of jesus message is to not focus on being overly religious. so therefore by being a half assed christian youre actually being more christian than super religious ones

Judaism is a hell of a drug.

>being a half assed christian youre actually being more christian than super religious ones

That's just wrong anon. Christ is against pharisaicalness, not zealousness
>Revelation 3:15 “‘I know your works: you are neither cold nor hot. Would that you were cold or hot! 16 So, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spew you out of my mouth. 17 For you say, I am rich, I have prospered, and I need nothing; not knowing that you are wretched, pitiable, poor, blind, and naked. 18 Therefore I counsel you to buy from me gold refined by fire, that you may be rich, and white garments to clothe you and to keep the shame of your nakedness from being seen, and salve to anoint your eyes, that you may see. 19 Those whom I love, I reprove and chasten; so be zealous and repent.

Forumposting can honestly be worse than 4chan. Normies get rewarded excessively, moderators have pathetically obvious great relish in their power, and trying to joke around in a way that’s not PC will get you banned. Hell, even somewhat “out of the bounds” discussions and topics — not even politically incorrect, just somewhat weird stuff the mods decided they don’t like — can lead to a shut down thread. Forums often devolve into a form of soft totalitarianism or a tyranny of the majority. Without overtly realizing it, a very narrow worldview is being promoted, and heterodox views gently filtered out. 4chan is kind of shitty but every once in a while you find posts by people who A.) are actually kinda smart or have some interesting points of view or some really interesting life experience and B.) also are willing to be completely honest and outside the bounds of academia or social custom due to anonymity.

It’s the rawness that makes this place fundamentally appealing even though it’s also extremely shitty for similar reasons. For instance, right now I can call the OP a pretentious fucking frogposting retard douchebag and tell him I’m glad if he leaves this site, and post this shitty meme pic. Such a tone and picture would probably get me banned on an average forum for “flaming” and “a ride tone” and “using crude meme pictures and lowering standards of discussion”. But you know what? It gets the point across, and such an environment wards off effeminate stuck-up pseuds.

If you're a 'centrist', then you are 100000000000000000x more serious than anyone with a vehement political ideology like Republicans or Democrats these days.

Because a 'centrist' sounds like the kind of person who wants to actually talk about concepts, ideologies, ideas, and principles.

I believe in Christianity because the wretchedness of humans can only be cured by self-denial.

>>11252243
I’m a political centrist ironically, but I love that picture because so many people on 4chan feel so superior for saying “haha BOTH/all of the sides in this argument are stupid ... but I’m not even gonna give my views >:) “

>>11252280
Actually we feel that way because it's a serious problem.

The objective of this site, and any site, and anything you do in life, is to change other's minds with regards to ideas and perceptions.

That's not possible if the angle you are coming at is formed before you speak about it. If what you are saying is anything like the contemporary political parties in any way shape or form, then I've already heard the mentality and I already know what you're going to say before you say anything at all.

>Paganism existed before "white" was a thing
>Christianity came from the Middle East, which is largely brown and black and tan, with some white in places like Afghanistan

It's about the same laugh I get when a guy with a clearly Indian-based accent says he's Muslim. People in America just shit the floor.

>discussions
Probably paltalk or one of those kind of chat-prioritized/debate forums. I've found people in any culture on most open forums tend to obsess and take things personally, or pull the Jordan Memerson level shit where they'll say Judeo-Christianity is unique compared to Islamic faiths. Same damn equipment, different flavour text.

If you're really up for an in-depth analytical/philosophical debate that helps you get somewhere with your own beliefs or practicing IRL, a thread pops up on /x/ once a week or so inviting people into discussions on their disqus. Last I checked 2-3 months ago they were going 150-strong, split between a couple topics (religion, occultism, magic, prayer, philosophy, [some word/phrase meaning applicable to life], etc).

>>11252325
Still doesn’t detract from the shallowness of the OP. Your post is interesting but I was using that meme for this specific instance, I probably would not use it to a post as well-thought out as yours or to genuinely nuanced centrist views. This image is probably more fitting and less divisive. Memology, ‘tis a subtle art.

>>11251120
Just not r/RadicalChristian

it's true tho
both sides are idiots
