Paganism means rural
It doesnt mean polytheism or idoltary
Paganism can be "monist" ie plotinus
Goofy strawman
If I wanted to stoop this low
I could say u worship a marvel character
But I respect christianity and my pride and dignity

On Satanism: I was reading this book
https://archive.org/details/the-origin-of-satan-how-christians-demonized-jews-pagans-and-heretics-by-elaine-pagels
Using satanism as a pejorative (unless they say they are) is mostly nonsensical. Satan in the book works with God to test people, but it was then used by Christians to - for a made up cause- to target innocent pagans. Carl schmitt talks about this, he said that during the medieval era countries would usher total war to kill each other, but during 1500-1877 iirc war mainly were like duels. You were shot, you healed, and if you wanted, you could have a reduel. This nonsense that the enemy MUST be destroyed is rather silly

Paganism is "based" until the IorubaGOD joins the room
se macumba funcionasse Bahia seria Dubai
admins or jannies please don't rape me for being a ESL
I respect Ioruba traditions as an african heritage but the problem with african religions nowdays is that most of their followers are jartycucks that larp as witchcrafters that will ruin your life and does this animal sacrifices in places like in front of other people houses, cemeteries etc.
And for some reason they love Catholic traditions but hates Christianity as a centered religion and this doesn't makes any sense

Then why does christianity utilize pagan holidays?
"Both Christmas and Easter are basically pagan holidays or festivals that were merged together and then changed to be about Christ

Christmas comes from the Germanic Yule and the Roman Saturnalia. Easter is a combination of the Jewish Passover, the Roman Hilaria and the Anglo-Saxon goddess Ēostre" - @Cannibvll

Conversation on "Christian Atheism"
P1 = Person 1 and so forth
P1: Atheism at least in the west is just christianity without Jesus. I've said this before but Zarathustra telling the atheists that God is dead and them being shocked is such a good image. How would they know when they are still living in his moral universe
P2:I experienced that with these leftists and radfems from French Twitter. You had this trend with them despite being atheists using insults such as "Wish God kills you" "Que Dieu te tue". Most of these people still move through a Abrahamic good/bad worldview

P3: u start to see this in american constitution too U hear vague mentions of "creator", french documents mention mysterious "l'etre supreme" so theres some god underlying western "secularism", He seems to ressemble biblical god (creator, w laws) but not 100

P2:Robespierre tried to replace Christianity and Catholicism with a state religion. It was in the middle of psychotic Terror period where heads were easily detached in France after the revolution. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cult_of_the_Supreme_Being#:~:text=The%20Cult%20of%20the%20Supreme,Reason%2C%20and%20of%20Roman%20Catholicism

P3: the funny thing is.. l'etre supreme still remains in these french legal documents even tho its not taken seriously now

P2:Insane lore, I just discovered the Religion of Humanity made post French revolution. Bro, just see the tenets and thoughts behind it. We see many things today validate it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religion_of_Humanity

P3: yep.. had interesting time in this rabbithole now "que dieu te tue" makes sense
