    AKA The Vatican and Christian leaders circa ~800 AD until Present.

    at the end of the day the vast majority of “Christian” identifying people are just bots in a global power scheme.

    Christianity has not been in an unmolested state for millenia.

    Agreed all all points.

    Modern day Christianity and the power that came from it’s manipulation are one and the same, baked together throughout the ages, regardless of your semantics.

    Mostly agreed.

    I myself am a Christian and I find it deplorable and disgusting what most Christians say and do. What others want to do is none of my business and has no impact on what I believe. And my beliefs should not be imposed on anyone ever.

      The way I see it is that most Christian values equate to just being a decent person and I think most people generally fit that bill regardless of their spirituality or faith. I would personally never identify as a Christian explicitly because of the state the religion is in. It seems to me that most people who proclaim to be Christian these days are just using it as a charade to be bigoted, hateful, and intolerant (see: millenia old power structures). Christ would flip so many tables if he came back and saw the shit people were doing/saying in his name.

        See, the thing is that “Christian” is more an umbrella term at this point. Even hundreds of years ago there were literal wars between different Christians. This is why the Anabaptists had their “third” baptism.

        Yup
