Intentionality matters more than the end result to SJWs. It's okay if you kill tens of millions of people as long as it wasn't explicitly racist or discriminatory.

Natives were hardly classed as human, which is why nobody cares.

>Like him? Love him? Hate him?
I disagree with most of his positions, but I like and respect how he never backed down from his views, despite the alarmism. Americans do deserve a choice, not an echo. I'm not a fan of the "extremism/moderation" quote, but overall you can't overstate the effect he had on the course of the Republican party.
>What would It take for him to have won in '64?
Kennedy not dying, the economy being worse, and tempering his nukes talk (Daisy ad).
>How would he have performed as President?
Impossible to say for certain. It sounds like he would've gotten us even more into the Vietnam pit, so counterculture probably still happens. His loose rhetoric regarding nuclear weapons was very, very troubling (imagine him at the helm of a Cuban Missile Crisis scenario). I think letting the Civil Rights issue fester too much in the name of states' rights would've caused even worse riots and social unrest among niggers.

>Gerd Eva Cecilia Brunne (born 7 March 1954) is a bishop in the Church of Sweden. She became the Bishop of Stockholm in 2009. She is the first openly lesbian bishop of a mainstream church in the world and the first bishop of the Church of Sweden to be in a registered same-sex partnership.

>In September 2015 Brunne proposed the removal of symbols of Christianity, including crosses, from the Seamen's Church in Stockholm Harbor, to open the church to worshipping sailors of all beliefs, and to mark the direction of Mecca as a service to Muslim visitors.[12][13][14] [15]

These are the people the POPE is going to celebrate Reformation Day with--yes, he's celebrating it with the *Church of Sweden*

Don't worry my Bärchen. I'm sure some of the soldiers in the invading armies will handily gang rape the little boys as well as the little girls. Don't be jealous of your sisters. When their screams of pain and terror stop, yours will probably begin. Uncle Dolphie is always thinking of you, you know that.

The "true" Christianity is Ebionitic Christianity. It is "true" in the sense that this sect practiced the closest equivalent to what Yeshua most likely preached.

Mainline Christianity, on the other hand, is mostly Pauline in nature, deriving most of its tenets and beliefs and theology from Hellenic ideas, such as neo-Platonism and Greek mystery religions. Funnily enough, these mainline Christians destroyed what probably were the original teachings of their Yeshua when they persecuted the Ebionites into extinction and forced them into Jordan and Arabia.

Reading history is a good way to cause one to realize Christianity is bullshit. The many denominations present this idea that Christianity was a monolith from its inception, but the history shows otherwise: different sects with different beliefs, all fighting each other for supremacy; some winning due to luck, others being phased out; beliefs being adopted, others discarded, some based on whims.

A religion that was built from the ground up by men, in contrast to the idea that Christcucks have, that one day, Christianity just appeared, all complete and laid out.

>Yeshua

Atheists won't even say the name they know the Lord by. Try it. Say Lord Jesus Christ.

Atheists hate God, yet still fear him. It's why they're always so afraid to say his name. It's always "magical sky wizard" or something they else read in a Douglas Adams book.

>>1830404

Atheists will never be able to destroy the fedora meme. Even if you all stopped wearing fedoras tomorrow, you'd still be a meme. Atheism attracts a particular type of person, and you know it. The best you can hope for is to own it.

I don't know if they do, but I would imagine so, because, though I'm Orthodox, my priest uses the term not irregularly, as does the priest at the parish closest to mine.

We define it as any deviation from dogma, either by adding, by subtracting, by distorting, or by developing.

When in the Western World did soldiery become an honorable profession?

For most of history, soldier was synonymous with rapist and looter, but now is looked upon as a necessary profession for the continuation of a free society.

Simply because women are emotional by default.
Have you ever had a political conversation with a woman? It's all about "muh poor people" "muh minorities".
And sometimes their good intentions just make it worse, for example, raising the minimum wage

Yes.

What would make you think their sexual organs have an impact on their competence when it comes to electing politicians?
