Not even whites give a shit about Rhodesia, unless you're an Australian and have to deal the yarpies that left.

I've been dealing with crippling depression for over 2 years now and have actually recently begun to get ahold of myself in the past few months by adopting a healthier diet, strict exercise regimen (inb4 op is a fatass) and, while I am an atheist, I have been regularly attending and volunteering at a Baptist Church. I believe this structured lifestyle has been helpful to me in the process of commanding my life back into order. Although, as of quite recently I've been experiencing some slippages in my dominance over my emotions and was wondering if joining a more devout sect of Christianity (I was thinking Catholicism or Mormonism ) would provide me with the structure and security I desire. Thoughts?

Catholics aren't more devout laity wise, as a lapsed Catholic I'd argue there isn't much community once the mass ends.

The Catholic church is more validate due to a historical claim going back to the Apostles and Jesus.

One benefit would be that priests are more educated theologically but they're so busy with their flock that they may not give time to a LARPing atheist.

Hey, psst!
Christianity, it's rigged!

It's like at a job interview where they say 'just be yourself'
Oh sure, as long as your self is in accordance with their requirements (punctual, hard working etc) otherwise gtfo there's someone else to interview.

The lie is the sin that precedes all others. If you do not commit another sin, and live a life perfeclty Christian but somewhere along the way lost your belief in God, then the entire time you did not believe but still went to church, prayed, got your kid baptised or whatever: you were living a lie, a life not in accordance with your nature, your genuine beliefs: all your "good/moral" actions are necessarily an untruthful act.

But we are sinners by default, born into inherent sin, it is part of our very being and so we must repent and so on.

Well then... if we are sinners, to deny ourselves sin when we feel compelled is to sin in itself by lying. How can we repent from that? By trying not to sin? But that would be to sin.

The ways out are to believe absolutely and live piously or not believe and abandon religion, living truthfully in doing so and therefore immediately redeeming every other kind of sin you commit in its enactment.

This is why animals aren't judged in the same way. They have no understanding of these concepts, they live totally impulsively and so completely honestly. They are incapable of sin in more than one way.

TL:DR should the Christian heaven exist, everyone's going - whether they believe it or not.

sola gratia, sola fide, soli deo gloria

Your concerns are an overcomplication my friend, and a superfluous pedantry that is ultimately invalid. Your conception of the sin of lieing is too broad. Think of the meaning of deceit and who is being deceived. Neither is their a balancing act of sins where sin redeems sin. Animals do not live in a covenant of God, nor do they have our duty in the hierarchy of living.

Godspeed my friend.

Pol Pot threw half of Cambodia into prison camps where they were starved and forced to eat their own shit until they confessed to being counter-revolutionaries, at which point they were killed. Also his men were forced to smile while swinging counter-revolutionary infants into trees by the ankles to bust their heads open.

>What do you guys think of Structuralism?
It has some interesting ideas, some of which do have support (like the binary opposition thing), but is ultimately outdated, partially because of how simplistic and reductionist it can be.

There's a reason almost any anthropological theory class will present it as a theory of the past; pretty much no anthropologists, even ones that consider themselves structuralists, follow it exactly and without addition/modification.

When you are a technologically superior civilization that investigates savages, it seems obvious that the savage society is extremely repetitive. The Internet has surely killed structuralism.

Is Russia the first nation to be cucked by milticulturalism? Why the fuck didnt they christianize muslim tatars and caucasians and instead gave them autonomy and equal rights?
Why didnt they give orthodoxy to catholicuck balts, finns and ukrainians and instead let the pope spread his bullshit in the Russian empire?

INFO ON THE BOOKS

>On War
Carl von Clausewitz's On War has been called, "not simply the greatest, but the only truly great book on war." It is an extraordinary attempt to construct an all-embracing theory of how war works. Its coherence and ambition are unmatched by other military literature. On War is full of sharp observation, biting irony, and memorable phrases, the most famous being, "War is a continuation of politics by other means."

>Frontiersmen, Warfare in Africa since 1950
Since 1950, there has been almost continuous military unrest in Africa. This study offers an overview of warfare in this period, examining a military tradition that ranges from the highly sophisticated electronic, air and armour fighting between South Africa and Angola-Cuban forces, to the spears and machetes of the Rwandan genocide. The author explores two themes: first, that warfare in North Africa has principally been a matter of identity and secondly, that warfare south of the Sahara is comparable with that of pre-colonial Africa - conflicts of frontiersmen trying to extend their control over land and resources. Exploring liberation campaigns, civil wars, ethnic conflicts and wars between nations, this study provides an authoritative military history of Africa over half a century.

>Cheese and the Worms
The book examines the beliefs and world-view of Menocchio (1532–1599), also known as Domenico Scandella, who was an Italian miller from the village of Montereale, twenty-five kilometers north of Pordenone. His philosophical teachings earned him the title of a heresiarch during the Inquisition and he was eventually burned at the stake in 1599, at the age of 67, on orders of Pope Clement VIII.

>The Great Game
Peter Hopkirk's spellbinding account of the great imperial struggle for supremacy in Central Asoa has been hailed as essential reading with that era's legacy playing itself out today.
The Great Game between Victorian Britain and Tsarist Russia was fought across desolate terrain from the Caucasus to China, over the lonely passes of the Parmirs and Karakorams, in the blazing Kerman and Helmund deserts, and through the caravan towns of the old Silk Road-both powers scrambling to control access to the riches of India and the East. When play first began, the frontiers of Russia and British India lay 2000 miles apart; by the end, this distance had shrunk to twenty miles at some points. Now, in the vacuum left by the disintegration of the Soviet Union, there is once again talk of Russian soldiers "dipping their toes in the Indian Ocean."

>Storm of Steel
(in German: In Stahlgewittern) is the memoir of German officer Ernst Jünger's experiences on the Western Front during the First World War. It was originally printed privately in 1920, making it one of the first personal accounts to be published. The book is a graphic account of trench warfare. It was largely devoid of editorialization when first published, but was heavily revised several times.

>One Nation Under God
Conventional wisdom holds that America has been a Christian nation since the Founding Fathers. But in One Nation Under God, historian Kevin M. Kruse argues that the idea of “Christian America” is nothing more than a myth―and a relatively recent one at that.

The assumption that America was, is, and always will be a Christian nation dates back no further than the 1930s, when a coalition of businessmen and religious leaders united in opposition to FDR’s New Deal. With the full support of Dwight Eisenhower in the 1950s, these activists propelled religion into the public sphere.

>>1985271
>Attacks
As the autobiographical record of a Great Captain, Attacks is a book of historical interest and importance. In tracing Rommel's development from a green lieutenant to a confident, seasoned and singularly successful commander, it provides keen insight into his mind and character. It is, as well, an important treatise on combat leadership and psychology, and contains many valuable lessons for those who would raise and train armies. Prime among these lessons is the reminder that men are the key element in combat; that it is the will, spirit and skill of men, led by competent and courageous officers that win battles; that high morale is developed by the accomplishment of difficult tasks.

The Ecclesia Gnostica Apolistica is dead. Long live Gnostic Catholicism. (Disclaimer, EGCA is still a thing).

Long ago the Freemasonic movement alongside Martinism decided ain't no Pope gonna keep them away from the Eucharist. Thus: Gnostic Catholicism. One of the last lifelines of this tradition has imploded, leaving behind a (mostly) similar remnant. But is this enough? These groups had years ago decided that Crowley's Mass was good enough….but they didn't want to be Thelemic churches. This intersection of ideas ended up giving birth to the OTO's Ecclesia Gnostica Catholica.

But at some level they're right. A kick-ass and doctrinally sound mass isn't enough. Sadly the EGC hasn't followed through on the whole 'gnostic catholic' bit. EGA is even smaller and therefore more irrelevant. (EG actually exists too but they're even fucking smaller).

As such, I propose we bridge the gap between the structurally sound EGA and the liturgically sound EGC. I give you, a possible Gnostic Canon. We begin, of course, with Origen:

>That which is called by us Genesis, but by the Hebrews, from the beginning of the book, Bresith, which means, ‘In the beginning’; Exodus, Welesmoth, that is, ‘These are the names’; Leviticus, Wikra, ‘And he called‘; Numbers, Ammesphekodeim; Deuteronomy, Eleaddebareim, ‘These are the words’; Jesus, the son of Nave, Josoue ben Noun; Judges and Ruth, among them in one book, Saphateim; the First and Second of Kings, among them one, Samouel, that is, ‘The called of God’; the Third and Fourth of Kings in one, Wammelch David, that is, ‘The kingdom of David’; of the Chronicles, the First and Second in one, Dabreïamein, that is, ‘Records of days’; Esdras, First and Second in one, Ezra, that is, ‘An assistant’; the book of Psalms, Spharthelleim; the Proverbs of Solomon, Meloth; Ecclesiastes, Koelth; the Song of Songs (not, as some suppose, Songs of Songs), Sir Hassirim; Isaiah, Jessia; Jeremiah, with Lamentations and the epistle in one, Jeremia; Daniel, Daniel; Ezekiel, Jezekiel; Job, Job; Esther, Esther. And besides these there are the Maccabees, which are entitled Sarbeth Sabanaiel.

This gives us the significant number of 22 within the Gematria, and parity to the Rose of the Rose Cross.

5 double books (Judges/Ruth, 1/2 Samuel, 1/2 Kings, 1/2 Chronicles, ½ Esdras, and Jeremiah/Lamentations) starting on representation of Hebrew letters that have double forms.

Replace Maccabees with Ethiopic Maccabees.

I dunno what I'd do about the other letters. As far as Mothers are concerned, my inclination is Genesis and Ezekiel but after that...I'm not sure.

BOOKS OF THE VEIL OF MYSTERY:
4 Baruch. Liber Chanokh. Sefer Yetzirah. Apocalypse of Moses. Gnza Rba. The Qwele of the Peacock Angel. The Thanksgiving Psalms

The Hypostasis of the Logos (Aka, The New Testament)

I want to use the texts closest to the original transmissions and as such probably will limit myself to those mentioned by Ireneaus. The expressed doctrine would preferably be a miaphysite leaning monophysitism. Following the Ebionites I propose a rejection of Paul as Apostate (Remember, Valentinus was almost our 10th/11th Pope) .

SECTION ONE: THE ASSEMBLEY:

The four canon gospels are a given. Matt, Mark, Luke, John.

We keep Acts.

We TOSS the General/Pauline Epistles. (We privelege James over Paul).

We TOSS Hebrews as suspicious and largely irrelevant even if in sound advice (i.e. how Apocrypha gets classed in other compilations).

We KEEP the Pastoral Epistles as an outline of doctrine and life.

SECTION TWO: THE ELECT
Apocalypse of Adam
Gospel of the Lord
Gospel of Truth
Gospel of Thomas
Gospel of Judas
Coptic Gospel of the Egyptians
Gospel of Mary
Gospel of Judas
Thunder: Perfect Mind
The Nassene Psalm
The Hymn of the Pearl
