Tolkien is religious fantasy done perfectly, to contrast with cs lewis doing it perfectly wrong

>implying religion works on a basis of enjoyment

>>1250403
No it doesn't

>>1250478
I refuse to believe Christians can enjoy a story like Berserk to its full extent like someone post-nihilism can.

what was the point of this thread?

>>1250536
No one said it's deep, just that Christians and their outdated beliefs and silly morals could never appreciate it. Much like how they can't properly appreciate Nietzsche.

>>1250576
Dude just stop, i'm basically an atheist and you are just embarrassing

>>1250547
Intense boredom.

I said it before. The Christian church would reduce the world's most precious gems of wisdom to mere guesswork and "glimpses of truth" at best, demonic at worst; she would condem Socrates and Epictetus to hell while having child rapist and Bedouin warlords in heaven; she would force on her adepts one particular Iron Age cosmology to, at the same time condemning cosmologies from other religions as absurd; she would claim exclusivity of truth, even though many metaphysical ideas from other religions and philosophies have points in common with her, and in fact predate her. This is some one the reasons why I can never get myself to come back to the church.

But of course the worst part of the Christian religion is... Christians. And here they come.

If you unterstood him you sure as hell wouldn't appreciate him. Get off the bandwagon you fucking hipster

>>1250778
What would you do then, if not appreciate and respect him?

>implying Nietzsche wasn't incredibly profound and decades beyond his contemporaries

God is in all things, OP, because he created all things. Christ is in all things. What remains is to find him, wherever he is.

>>1250844
Yes, yes it is.

>>1250848
The real point is to strive against him, eventually. Up until then appreciating and respecting him is only the human thing to do. Unless you are a faggot, and you instead loathe him.

>>1250846
If you consider the drunk burnout at your local bar rambling nonsense to disgusted patrons profound then yes he is

>>1250907
He doesn't ramble, he didn't like alcohol, and he certainly doesn't waste his time with disgusting patrons like yourself.
