@gav @ArdainianRight American jews and Israeli jews can't stand each other. It is rather funny how little most anti-semites actually know about them beyond their banks and special interest groups.
-
@ArdainianRight If that was true then a Republican would win every time bc they're all pro Israel. Doesn't seem to work out that way.
Israel has power but it's a mistake to think the world revolves around them.
-
@ArdainianRight It hasn't even come up yet.

@PurpCat @Griffith @coin @RustyCrab @rher @Hoss @Nudhul I will use whichever one gets PleromaFE support first. I got too old to care about the tech I only care about how the client gives me dopamine hits.
-
@PurpCat @Griffith @Hoss @Nudhul @RustyCrab @coin @rher Actually probably not bc I like this instance, but if Grips snakes on me like all other admins do, then I'll use whatever has PleromaFE.

@augustus @lain What do you think is a replacement? We've spoken about this for years periodically and I don't think I've ever figured it out.
-
@lain @augustus What I mean is, modern American spirituality seems to be a fusion of Eastern mysticism, Western occultism, and a very generic strand of Jesus mythology, but all of these things are decoupled from both institution and metaphysics, and the ethics of this hybrid are subservient to the whims of the ruling class, whoever those people might be.
There's very little participation involved, is what makes it so strange, just observation. People watch their beliefs on a screen like a movie, metaphorically. There's no striving to be anything greater outside a strict economic sense, which was always a goal for even the lowest class. You worked toward the divine from wherever you were, even if you had a vague commoner perspective on what that meant (palace in the clouds.)
It seems at some point we have to lapse back into actual participation that has sway in the world. It seems like the seams are trying to break, with the rise of new religious movements over the past 200 years. Theosophy, Wicca, Neopaganism, whatever. More recently even niche conversions back to Trad Catholicism and other similar Christian branches.
But somehow even though these niche movements have a small amount of sway, they don't seem to get anywhere, they just cycle through a consistently small amount of young men over and over again.

@lain @augustus What do you mean by them wanting to be a moderate Islamic country?
Last I remember you were in Germany. Idk if you're being tongue in cheek about the immigrant problem or if you've moved somewhere else, but that doesn't sound right from an American perspective and we're having the same religious issues, just lagging a few decades behind Europe.

@Witch_Hunter_Siegfired My favorites are historical influence ones. I was on right wing dharma Xitter briefly (before they banned my 1500 follower acct 😡) bc I was interested in Eastern philosophy and religion and there are mountains of copes about how the Buddha was secretly a huge influence on Platonism, Greek/Italian culture at large, and even early Christianity (but they'd say Christianity stole it illicitly somehow, whereas it's legitimate in all the other cases.)
It is true that the Greeks made contact with followers of the Buddha, and other dharma traditions, during Alexander's conquests, but a cursory read of the philosophers reveal distinct departures in teleology right away that make any causal influence unlikely even at that point. Eastern religion essentially views the goal of life as death, or at least the death of anything in you that can cause karma and trigger a rebirth. In the West the goal is either virtue or outright deification. (Both East and West have variants of fatalism/nihilism/skepticism but they're not worth mentioning bc they always die out.) The only thing they share is incidental similarities like reincarnation, and that's an easy inference to make bc of how patterns repeat in the real world.
The one I find the most believable is that Jesus was influenced by the East. I don't think he literally traveled there, though that is one of the conspiracies, but Jesus teaches certain charitable virtues that were not significant in the West until Christianity became an imperial institution, but were common in India and other regions in East/South Asia.

@bobbala @dick @Witch_Hunter_Siegfired @plotinus_enjoyer If salvation wasn't based on merit in Christianity then everyone would be saved. The existence of hell is proof that Jesus wasn't necessary at all and God could've provided any avenue he wanted, but chose to be convoluted to show off.
VERY CRINGE. Why is he so desperate?
(Or Calvin is right and no one should bother thinking about it bc it's all strictly predetermined from the beginning anyway.)
-
@bobbala @dick @Witch_Hunter_Siegfired @plotinus_enjoyer I don't. Not in the sense that I'm subject to some divine punishment by a jewish God who created the entire world on a usury system of sin debt, anyway.
-
@bobbala @dick @Witch_Hunter_Siegfired @plotinus_enjoyer Yes, especially to women, and that's a good thing.
