Exactly

The whole notion of the universe as a community which men and gods both belong is - rightfully from the salvation/transcendent perspective - satanic.

Not to Mormons

@༺པརབྱར།བསངཇ༻ I AM NOT SURE THE TWO ARE INCOMPATIBLE

REMEMBER THAT 90%+ OF CHRISTIANITY IS LIFTED FROM THE GREEKS

THE POINT IS TO AVOID HUBRIS AND ACT IN ACCORD WITH ETERNAL NATURAL ORDER

THE DIVINE

TO PAGANS, THE WORLD AS A WHOLE IS NOT SINFUL, BUT CERTAIN ACTS WITHIN IT ARE ILLOGICAL BECAUSE THEY END IN RESULTS THAT OFFEND THE ORDER

THIS IS BETTER THAN THE PERSONAL-ONLY VIEW OF MASS RELIGION

CHRISTIANITY IS, AND SO YOU CAN MASS-TRAIN PEOPLE TO APPLY IT ASSEMBLY-LINE STYLE

the low herd can not be made honourable by any religion

they don't understand any religion anyway

THIS IS TRUE, BUT I AM NOT TRYING TO CONTROL THEM

IT IS A DUAL APPROACH

2. OPPRESS THE HERD

In Christianity, deeds are empty, faith is golden

This makes those inferior spiteful, rather than awe inspired, of the champions

Christianity offered a vision that so called paganism seems to have not
