Christian Ethiopia was the least sucky African country

2018-07-14 04:28:42 UTC  

Christian Ethiopians could still be eradicated, and I wouldn’t shed a tear lmao

North Africa was populated by whites during the original Egyptian Dynasty's, until blacks and browns invaded and destroyed Egypt, ever since then whites have been pushed back north farther and farther until we will eventually be killed off.

2018-07-14 11:19:22 UTC  

Ethiopia is not Bantu

2018-07-14 11:19:29 UTC  

That's why they're different

@cheeto this is a demographic war for territory and resources

2018-07-14 15:23:42 UTC  

End of story

@Groove_Crusader for what it's worth you are correct to say this. The first civilizations in North Africa were Berbers who'd originated in NW Arabia and Asia Minor. N Africa wasn't Arabized until well into the 7th century, and W Africans - esp Mauritenians - didn't appear until way later.

You'll notice N. African folks like Hannibal Barca (from what is now Tunisia), Augustine of Hippo (now Algeria) and Ptolemy (now Egypt) are never depicted as what we would consider "African". So when you think of ancient Carthage, Egypt, etc they could best be described in ancient terms as Phoenician, though by modern standards they'd be considered Mediterranean whites.

This is the religion channel

2018-07-14 18:13:07 UTC  

What the fuck are you doing

@Salo Saloson I was gonna post this in general but I realized this was probably the place to do it. It's in response to this

What you seem to not understand is that Mary isn't even someone that deserves this kind of veneration. You wanna know how many times Mary, mother of Jesus, is mentioned in the Bible? 19 times. Catholics like to revere Mary as some huge figure in the Bible who deserves much praise and respect. Mary is a mere woman. She worships God in the same way everyone else does. CCC 969, CCC 966, CCC 2677, and likely many others, are all Catholic catechisms which all involve heretical doctrines such as Mary being a Mediatrix, Mary being the bringer of eternal salvation, Mary delivering souls from death, and prayer to the saints. Such magnificent attributes of Mary are found nowhere in Scripture. Not a single one of those things are found in God's inspired word. They are, however, said to be found in the Roman Catholic Church's Sacred Tradition. A tradition, which in and of itself is STEEPED in idolatry, from head to toe. "Mother of God" "Queen of Heaven," it's all disgusting catholic rhetoric. And do I even need to mention Exodus 20:4-5? I mean that part should go without saying really, the catholic church is filled with images, statues, and likenesses of Jesus, Mary, and the saints. Isaiah 44:17, "But the rest of it he makes into a god, his graven image. He falls down before it and worships; he also prays to it and says, “Deliver me, for you are my god."" Whether its praying to the saints, or even asking that the saints (who are all dead), somehow pray for you, it's still idolatry and it's still wrong. Even the very concept of the pope is downright wrong. “The Pope is of great authority and power, that he is able to modify, declare, or interpret even divine laws. The Pope can modify divine law, since his power is not of man, but of God, and he acts as vicegerent of God upon earth...” — Lucius Ferraris.

2018-07-14 18:16:07 UTC  

With respect to your particular theology, and the comments of Lucius Ferraris: that shit is in open contention, and the current state of things proves that

2018-07-14 18:16:20 UTC  

As far as people are concerned, it isn't idolatry. End of story.

2018-07-14 18:17:35 UTC  

what

2018-07-14 18:17:39 UTC  

As far as C*tholics are concerned lol

2018-07-14 18:18:15 UTC  

As far as people are concerned? Since when did the opinions of men ever matter over scripture?

2018-07-14 18:18:24 UTC  

Since the scriptures have been interpreted

2018-07-14 18:18:36 UTC  

Christ, are we really going to do this shit like every other theological argument?

2018-07-14 18:18:47 UTC  

Y’all kneel before Mary lmao that’s fucked

2018-07-14 18:18:52 UTC  

I don't see what the problem is, here

2018-07-14 18:19:36 UTC  

The problem is that you're calling something idolatry that isn't

2018-07-14 18:20:03 UTC  

I didn't write the Bible, bud. Leviticus 26:1“You shall make you NO IDOLS nor GRAVEN IMAGE. Neither rear you up a STANDING IMAGE. Neither shall ye set up any IMAGE OF STONE in your land to bow down unto it.”

2018-07-14 18:20:12 UTC  

Oops

2018-07-14 18:20:16 UTC  

So what, should we take down the Cross too?

2018-07-14 18:20:36 UTC  

sure, why not? It was only introduced into Christianity when the religion began to become paganized

2018-07-14 18:20:47 UTC  

Now this is some blasphemy

2018-07-14 18:20:50 UTC  

How so?

2018-07-14 18:21:05 UTC  

Do you truly venerate a shape that much?

2018-07-14 18:21:06 UTC  

Small Al on Smite Watch rn

2018-07-14 18:21:29 UTC  

I don't venerate a shape, but it is the symbol of the entire religion

2018-07-14 18:21:39 UTC  

It's a bit much to then say "tear it all down"

2018-07-14 18:21:57 UTC  

And even if you wanted to, the practical reality is that isn't ever happening

2018-07-14 18:22:28 UTC  

Bro all were saying is that you’re in direct violation of the idolatry verses

2018-07-14 18:22:45 UTC  

Alright and that's a fair point. That doesn't make it necessary though. Early christians certainly didn't use it. And I understand that it isn't a realistic goal to think everyone will jusst stop in their tracks, but being true to the Bible matters over wanting please everyone

2018-07-14 18:23:02 UTC  

I don't want to please everyone, fuck the non-Christians of the world for all I care
