Well, young people are significantly more involved in politics due to globalism, which has increased tribalism. With the rise in secularism came what many perceive as degeneracy, typically encouraged by the left and those who aren't conservative adjacent. The right had to adopt conservatism to combat this leftism, which became associated with the aforementioned worldview. This led the right to subsequently enforce religion as their counter-worldview that would fix society's ills. The result is that pro-religion advocates and Christians aren't so much believers due to a study of scripture, but rather participants in a political move, which is why they naturally don't adhere to it consistently (this is why you get templar larpers who are somehow into lolis). The modern adoption of Christian identity is the male equivalent of a chick going goth. It's simply a need to establish an identity, and Christianity's righteousness, forgiveness, symbolism and historical dominance draws in a significant number of people.
Those who are deep in the Christian Orthodox circles find themselves in a worldview that allows them to dismantle any opposition by ultimately claiming that they are the only ones grounded in truth (by adhering to the transcendental argument and claiming that Christianity is the only religion offering a coherent paradigm to it), and that any other frameworks lack the rigid foundation. It's the ultimate contrarian dream. These are for instance Jay Dyer, Andrew Wilson, Jimbob, Church of Logos, etc. But if you listen to each one individually, they just rehearse and recite the same answers and same objections over and over again.
Most definitely, his "debate" with Jay Dyer made it evidently clear that his Christian worldview is for show.
I completely agree. The Bible even contradicts itself at some points. I don't think reviving religious fundamentalism is how we un-fuck the world, and arguments solely based in religion do very little to convince the non-religious. Just look at the Middle East with their Sharia Law. Islam as a religion is supposedly very anti-rape, but Muslims seem to love raping women and kids. I don't know how one can reconcile race realism with "We are all made in the image of God". I hate Conservatives that have a religious version of the civic nationalist view, where they think niggers can be reformed if they convert to Christianity.
If I were to play devil's advocate, I would say that "we are made in the image of god" proclaims that we are the species who can, through the spirit, use the logos, grasp the abstract, and discover fundamental truths (mathematics, law of non-contradiction). So in theory I would say it's possible to still be race realist while being Christian, since spirit is independent of body and mind, but it starts to reach.
Yeah, some speculate that they would move away from Christianity given time, "The fuhrer is deeply religious, but completely anti-christian. He sees Christianity as a symptom of decline. Rightly. IT IS AN OFFSHOT OF THE JEWISH RACE" - Joseph Goebbels. It just wasn't a priority since even if we grant the fact that Christianity / Religion are just mythological lies, one can not argue that it's a superb way to enforce morality. By having divine superstition (god), combined with an afterlife, combined with faith, it is simply unmatched in terms of getting people to obey. When society becomes too materialistic (as it is now), it decays, religion/spiritualism appear to be necessary for society to persist and be coherent, it would have been fascinating to see what the Germans would have developed as a substitute, but ah well, living in the wrong timeline.
I think (part of) my problem is that it's all judgement with no self reflection. Tradlarpers LOVE to get on a pedestal and judge others for their missteps and failings. But there's no humility, no recognition of oneself as an equally horrible sinner, whos soul is just as damned but for the love of Jesus Christ.
I'm really frustrated with this particular breed of Christians. It's inconsistent with the faith. We should be striving to better ourselves through practicing our faith, and bettering society through our own acts of love. Not trying to build the kingdom of Heaven on Earth.
I've mostly avoided "Christian" influencers (I prefer to get my advice from priests and the Saints), but one I have run into before is Jay Dyer. He comes across to me as the Orthodox Nick Fuentes, in that he seemed more interested in political posturing than Christianity. His rhetoric also seemed to me to be particularly hateful and schismatic.
Well, both are actually true. What Liberal Christianity does is that it says "All life choices are valid and not a sin if it makes you feel good" when they clearly are not in the eyes of God.
God send Jesus to Earth to tell Jews they fucked up and to get back to basics. Some listened, some didn't. But I don't believe that they are God's Chosen People based on the entirety of the New Testament and some of the Old (for example, Israel shouldn't exist). About niggers, well, God and Jesus both said 'don't do crimes or be a dick'. There are some blacks that have risen out of niggerdom and are functional members of society though trying to follow what Jesus said. But most just ignore the advice and break into Foot Locker and Apple stores anyway. God and Jesus did try though...
Like most things it's not a simple matter, but a complex and nuanced one, too much so to say it is either all good or all bad.
Not all larpers are consciously aware of the fact they are larpers, like trannies for example genuinely think they are "trapped in the wrong body" and aren't aware that they're just larping. Nux Taku, the loli fan Tactikal adamantly defends, is 100% a larping grifter. I don't know much about Tactikal and didn't even read his whole thread, but it seems like he is also a larper based on the fact he doesn't know anything about the templars and doubles-down when he's wrong about something. He even called Kiwifarms "woke leftists" lmfao. I don't think that the larpers deliberately are co-opting Christianity while secretly knowing they're not following the Bible, I think they're just retarded and genuinely don't think they're doing anything wrong/cringey. Like I wouldn't be surprised if Nick Fuentes genuinely hasn't accepted that he's an obvious flaming faggot and suppresses it with his larp. It's cognitive dissonance.
For the record, he admits to being protestant, mocks the eucharist, and believes Catholics worship Mary.
I'll never understand the Protestant attitude towards Mary. She is the mother of our Lord, came to crush the head of the serpent, but they act like she is some common street whore that Catholics and Orthodox worship as God Herself. No matter how many times I try to explain it, the brainwashing is complete with a lot of them and they will not hear it.
