Symbolism matters.
Islam uses the symbolism of swords and
Christianity uses their prophet dying on a foreign torture device as their symbolism.
Yeah, sure, it's what you make of it. That is true. But lets not pretend that a culture that uses weapons as religious wall decor will naturally evolve differently than one that uses a foreign torture device where their own died on as wall decor. It's not coincidental.
I'm not sure muslims are a good example for anything. Nearly 40% of them are illiterate. For a people obsessed over one book, that's fucking rich. Their own prophet warned the next generations would only become more degenerate than the previous ones
https://sunnah.com/bukhari:6429
The Prophet said, "The best people are those of my generation, and then those who will come after them (the next generation), and then those who will come after them (i.e. the next generation), and then after them, there will come people whose witness will precede their oaths, and whose oaths will precede their witness."
That's also part of the islamic eschatology, regarding end times signs
That being said, except for the sword they didn't manufacture the weapon you mention. Economically speaking the contribution of islamic countries to world's GDP is pathetic
If not for US support, and fossil fuel, where would they be? You believe they are strong, you have an image of strength when it comes to muslims. Reality is that ISIS was israel's gadget. They are only as strong as the hand enabling and manipulating them
I agree that Islam is a religion of hypocritical, inbred degenerates.
Unfortunately nonetheless the fastest growing religion.
But my point is that the symbolism they use reflects their psyche. I guess the AK-47 being a foreign weapon doesn't take away from that, that also kinda perfectly reflects their culture.
It's also worth noting, that under the right circumstances (ie. Family), I consider self-sacrifice and forgiveness to be admirable traits.
It's not so much the symbol of the cross that needs to be replaced/changed, it's how it's viewed/ perceived, and that is doable
Good luck with that. I consider that only slightly more doable as witnessing another crusade. So far we haven't even managed to stop immigration of people who hate Christians and our way of life.
The story behind that cross isn't going anywhere Christ is the truth, and look at what they did to it... It's a good reminder about this world and the people running it
The tolerance for kikeries is only a very recent phenomenon in the west, when it's going to bring ruin home, and it has already started to a large extent, while we haven't reached bottom yet, there won't be much rooms left for tolerance, people will ask for somebody to pay for what has been done, and someone will come forward and say "here's who's responsible for this mess, and we're going to put the house in order"
Guaranteed
Catholics always depicted Christ as effeminate because of Mithra worship. Mithra is associated with Hermaphrodites or the 'Supreme Androgyne'. It's derived from Zurvanism/ Zoroastrianism.
Christ should be depicted as a masculine and physically fit, idealised European, Atlantid or Nordid phenotype. Hermaphrodite worship is antithetical to the Bible. I'd say it's pretty weird to adopt the device that was used to kill someone you look up to, as the symbol of your faction or sect but it's probably better to use something more nuanced than a whip. Quite hard to change that now though. You could adopt strong & uplifting imagery from many passages.
The death of Christ is of course important but to outsiders it appears to be some kind of blood sacrifice. A debt owed to Baal, that was paid off. If that is the genuine meaning, I want nothing to do with it, but I can also see a completely different, powerful meaning behind it.
I'll try to summarise: -The eternal God, the Alfather, first created a reflection of himself, his First Born Son, or "the Word," the perfect medium, being both God and apart of creation. They are equal in character and worshipfulness. -When he saw the distrust Eve had for him, for being ultimately powerful over her, he knew what he'd have to do to prove that he genuinely cared for his creations and address the slander against him from the adversary. -Thus despite knowing that Christ would suffer and be killed, he would still have to place him in that vulnerable position in order to achieve what was necessary.
-When he saw the distrust Eve had for him, for being ultimately powerful over her, he knew what he'd have to do to prove that he genuinely cared for his creations and address the slander against him from the adversary. -Thus despite knowing that Christ would suffer and be killed, he would still have to place him in that vulnerable position in order to achieve what was necessary.
He endured pain and death to appear more trustworthy and likable to his inferiors?
Isn't that what we are doing? The rest of the world doesn't trust us. It accuses us of exploitation and bad intentions. It envies us for our wealth, technology and beauty.
And how do we react? We make ourselves vulnerable. By inviting everyone in. We already suffer, in the hope to be more liked and trusted. Only our death is yet to come.
Hmm yeah, that is true.
I don't think it was ever meant to work on anyone but physical "Israel" (that's not "Jews" technically.) "I have only come for the Lost Sheep of the House of Israel." Matt 15:24
