ChristSocs, why Christian Socialism

Not an insult or anything, just curious why you're Christian Socialism instead of any other form of leftism. I'm pretty unfamiliar with Christian Socialism.

Christian Socialism is a corruption of the original orthodoxy.
You can call it straight heresy.
And it can get away just because of the lack of a proper Inquisitor.

Christian socialism is the only way to prevent liberalism from leaking into socialism via retarded enlightenment ideas about religion. Post-Stalin state atheism was a mistake.

Not a Christian, but the only "economic policy" that Jesus instructs people with his own mouth is condemnation of wealth, abandonment of all property (Yep, he'd actually even come for your toothbrush) and living in agrarian communes.

Christian, non-hypocrite, ideologically capitalist. Choose two and only two.

Sounds pretty reactionary to me.

Well I was a socialist before I was a christian, so chrisoc just kinda fit.
Also I ended up reading Matthew and most of the shit basically comes off as Marxist revolutionary theory.
Get the fuck out, Tito was right for purging you motherfuckers.

But we aren't ethnonationalist here.

Israel was something white people created for Jews. Jews are mathematically incapable of organic nationalism because they're too spread out in other peoples' countries.

defining jews as foreign to nations, speaking of "german jews" rather than "jewish germans" in example, is very much reactionary thought
but fuck those religious groups, they get a beating

Christians and atheists are two sides of the same religious imperialist coin.
Made by pagan socialist gang.

I don't understand why Christians aren't relentlessly bullied here
atheism is baby's first redpill
it's the one thing that leftists, liberals, SJWs, lolberts, and Zig Forums all agree on.

user, when libs, SJW, polyps all agree on something: you should keep the fuck away from it.
Also Nu-Atheism gave birth to the identitarian movement.

Paganism has only gained its romantic qualities in contrast to christianity. There was little of tenants or creeds in "paganism". Those came later, and were intrusions upon the folk beliefs of the commoners, who found this lofty thinking foreign to their own experience. And really, the superstitions of the commoners is all that paganism was at the ground level. People sprinkling cum on the wheat crops to help them grow and shit.
It's no surprise that Hellenism, despite being by far the most attested, has barely any audience in the neo-pagan movements. Seeing as how its intellectual contributions have mostly been absorbed by the church. The sparse details of the northern, illiterate beliefs of Europe have allowed these modern resuscitators to fill in the gaps with whatever thinking they want. It's mostly reactionary shit for the Norse pagans; it's mostly hippie shit for the Celtic ones. They're both correct, it can be whatever you want it to be.
If there were still any surviving pagans it would be worth defending them from whatever christian imperialist process. This is a genuine concern with christian missionary projects in the third world, but they aren't typically called out due to also being some of the only aid these regions receive.
As for European paganism though? That is a conflict that ended 2000 years ago and those that are still concerned with it are scholars and hobbyists. And the latter group is advocating a paganism that has never existed before.

Or maybe atheism is simply universal because anyone who overcomes rudimentary childhood indoctrination will conclude it.

Perhaps atheism is negative development politically and culturally, but that doesn't absolve individuals who actually genuinely believe in the popsicle jew (PBUH). It is intellectually laughable.

Your point?

It's stupid

Okay someone was sent to a catholic school as a kid.

Probably because people like Thunderf00t, Richard Dawkins and theAmazingAtheist are a bunch of cringeworthy reactionaries. Atheism isn't wrong, but identifying solely as an atheist is pathetic.

*more like 1300-600 years ago

I went to a public school but was raised catholic, good guess.

I don't think Christianity is worth worrying about unless it has some influence on social or political life. It's a real concern in America, it's a non-issue in much of Europe. The issue is always power and in American Christianity as an example, its political expression has little do with its tenants of faith and calling them out on the burden of proof won't stop Mike Pence from defunding Planned Parenthood.
If there are socialist Christians out there I won't be trying to alienate them. Whatever helps people come around. If they need a theological justification to be comfortable with socialism then it doesn't bother me.

Yeah but 2000 is a more satisfying number innit

Distributism is honestly a pretty great and criminally under-discussed/known system.
That however is just about the only positive thing I could say regarding the Galilean faith; Quite frankly I'm rather happy that in much of the west it seems like it will soon be resigned to the dustbin of history.

You're both wrong, Comrade Archbishop Rowan Williams will lead the people.

Christianity is a spook that breeds right wingers. Just look at modern day Russia. What a fucking joke their youth has become. Hoxha was right. Fuck your religion, especially anything hails from the middle east.

Yeah those churches in Russia and Catalonia just burned themselves down amirite?

you may make your point any time

Daily reminder religious "communists" are all de facto wreckers.

Breeding religion, mysticism and overall skydaddy superstition into scientific socialism should force you directly to gulag.

Agreed, religion ruins class coinsciousness. Especially the abrahamian ones.

Buddhism by far the worst religion out there. Zizek is right.

Stalin had great ideas and it was actually Lenin who did that.

hi Varg

The church would make a good ESCAPE from liberalism but there's nothing intricate to it's nature to NULLIFY liberalism

What I mean is religion is too influential, holds too much land and capital to just be blown up or written off. The church has failed in it's role as a secondary political structure to the king however. In modern times it merely compliments and has a few perks from the bourgeois class, where as in the feudal area it served as a contradicting power point. The dynamic shifted and conglomerated the notion that if you believe in God, you should be subservient or at least non-violent to your masters. Protestantism is synopsis with anti-Christian, pro-Baal bullshit.

The best one can hope for from religion these days is an escapism to get away from the responsibility and dread of working class life, confining one's self to the minimalist and simplistic lifestyles of old on some Amish settlement or in the priesthood. Which ofcourse the elite doesn't care, why would they?

I'm not saying you can't believe in God, or that that you shouldn't. That's a whole other topic on my views of the factoids behind religious doctrine, I'm just saying as an institution it is powerless at best, an assault at worst.
