ANGLOSAXON PEOPLES AS A WHOLE, ESPECIALLY THE ENGLISH, ARE SPIRITUALLY IMPAIRED, AND MENTALLY STUNTED, THUS, THEY ARE INCAPABLE OF PHILOSOPHICAL THOUGHT, OF ARTISTIC SENSIBILITY, AND OF SPIRITUAL COMMUNION; THEY ARE UTILITARIAN, AND MATERIALISTIC.

In life you go with your strong points. Administration and Conquest was the anglos purview

I somewhat agree except for literature.

Milton tho

Yeah but literature tho.

>>2513904
I think you are generalizing a bit too much. unless this was supposed to be a joke

British literature is top tier though

But it is surpassed by Russian literature in almost every way

van gogh
rembrandt
vermeer
rubens
karel appel
piet mondriaan

basically all great painters came from the netherlands

>russian poetry

not even once

>>2514035
Bosch

You know, I don't really mind some of those old churches constructed on the frontier with the best materials they had at the time, because the population is still trying to contribute a beautiful temple to the Lord. What I can't stand is someone renting a junky secular building or running a church out of something close to a shack because "that money is better used elsewhere." Poverty is eternal, giving money away won't actually fix the root of the problem, but putting that money to glorifying the Lord is a sign of great respect, and draws in additional people to Christ.

London has some cool buildings. I forget the guy who did all the churches in the East end but he was pretty good. The cathedral in York is pretty based too

>>2513758
Anglo literature is great though, they have Chaucer, Shakespeare, Joyce etc

Irish aren't Anglo, sweetie.

JMW Turner and John Constable come to mind.

>Jesus talked about disregarding wealth and said you could pray in your closet for all it matters because what is important is the relationship you have with your creator

>hey guys lets make huge cathedrals where tons of people go just to show off how pious they are in front of others and ignore all that shit jesus said

I guess I didn't read the part where Jesus said material things mattered and you need a snazzy church. What was the church Jesus built like? It must have cost a lot and been huge.

Even when the hebrews were carrying around the ark of the covenant, it was to be constructed of only the finest materials and housed with reverence at all times. Even touching it would strike a man dead.

If he desired such a fancy temple when it was a hardship on the men carrying it through a desert, why would he suddenly stop when his son came down to be born among us? Did he not sanctify the holy temple that brought him into the world as sinless?

What more beautiful church could carry the Lord but a virgin who birthed him?

You said a whole lot and didn't respond to a single thing I said. Or refute it.

>>2515241
I said exactly the reasoning behind it. Take it or leave it, it's your choice, but that's the official response you'll get. You're welcome to say, "That's a fucking stupid interpretation of things," but it's the way it was thought up by Catholics.

Besides, there's a big difference between, "I can't actually provide a big fancy church for the Lord, so I made do the best I could by providing everything valuable to make a pleasing sanctuary for him," and, "All this stuff is expensive, I'd rather use the money for it on something else."

By classical do you mean a specific era or general orchestral, chamber, "art", etc music? They've got some damn good composers, just because they aren't in the list of 4 or 5 that the average "Tannhäuser, Burzum, and the Evangelion OST" turbopleb /int/poster like yourself can name, doesn't mean they don't exist.
