Is paganism or Christianity the religion of white European peoples? Sorry I am debating a pagan and he says Christianity is a Jewish death cult from the middle east. Responses? Is Christianity white?

Christianity is open to all people. Jesus came to save the world, not just a specific people.

If you want my advice, don't waste your time with a vain idolater. If he is stiff-necked, prideful, idolatrous, etc. then you can afford to pay him as little mind as you would an atheist. Nothing he says has a snowball's chance in hell of being right.
Why not be just as shrill back to him and tell him about how he's advocating for savages who lived in mud huts, at the same level of development as today's darkest Africa? Speak also about whether he is comfortable that his religion, which is supposedly so much less deathly than Christianity, is the sort of religion that throws virgins into bogs? In short, ask why he likes savages and wants to be like them?
Also let him know what his gods really are; voodoo from the time that Europe was as savage as Africa, designed by the druids (those voodoo practitioners of the Celts) to basically extract other people's time and money through using superstition to leverage political power.

fpbp, hate to compare it to something worldly but you're at the same thought level of "is vanilla frosting the topping of white people?" OP

Lets us do a mental exercise.
Let us assume in the near future, esoteric neo-shintoism starts to flourish among the realms of the former abrahamic faiths.
In the meantime, we start expanding into space, and the followers of the old monotheistic religions start getting called derogatorily "grounders".
2000 years from now, they are extinct, while ENS is the dominant religion across Earth and most of its super genetically diverse colonies.
So some guys start calling themselves grounders, in some super LARPish and historically ignorant rituals (think a super incomplete Sarum rite, with the Words of Consecration replaced with the Shahada written in hebrew script, and teenagers in hieromonk robes memeing on the Extranet on their brave terran ancestors are chilling in Shamayin, with their 72 virgins carrying lamps) to carry the true spirituality of their grounder ancestors, and inject terran supremacist rhetoric into their faith.
Now, is grounderism or esoteric neoshintoism the religion of red-blooded Terran peoples?

No, Christianity is Truth. LARPagans treat religion like fashion, something to put on for identity, not as something that is the Truth (capital T). Here is a question: does he believe that the pagan gods created the world? If yes, then which ones did create the world? Every pagan religion has its own creation myths, they cannot be all true at the same time. So if he believes that only his gods are the real ones, does that mean that all other people in the world are worshiping false gods? Should they then convert to his particular flavor of paganism? Would he like Africans, Asians, Jews, Indians, Eskimos, Aboriginals and all other people to worship his gods as well, join all his LARPing club?
Christians believe that Christianity is the only true religion, which is why it needs to be spread to all people. It is not something for Europeans to wear like a fashion statement. Yes, different cultures have different outwards expression (vestments, iconography, architecture), but we are united in one faith in Christ.
If Christianity is a Jewish psy-op, why are Jews trying so hard to eradicate it? LARPagans are closer to Jews than they know. Judaism is more of an ethnic identity than an actual religion. This is why you can have "atheist Jews", but you cannot have "atheist Christians". Jews rejected Christ because they were expecting a warlord who would drive out the Romans and establish Jewish supremacy over the whole world, not someone who would open up their privileged status to every nation in the world.

There is no getting around the fact that christianity originates in the same mythology as the current jewish people. The current jewish people have, however, denied their messiah and do not represent the original inhabitants of judea, especially considering the abomination they have made in the talmud.

It’s THE religion, m8.

The question isn't whether Christianity is compatible with x culture, the skeptic is concerned that Christianity is subversive against Europeans. A historical case for Christian dominance in Euro history would be the area to argue
