yeah but look at where they are

2017-05-30 19:45:12 UTC  

compared to the rest of the Christian countries

2017-05-30 19:45:34 UTC  

oh not James, Phillip

2017-05-30 19:46:35 UTC  

Ethiopia has actually historically been leagues ahead of sub-saharan africa

2017-05-30 19:46:48 UTC  

Yeah of *that* region

2017-05-30 19:46:56 UTC  

whether that's due to christianity, admixture with arabs, or any other factors is a different question

2017-05-30 19:47:02 UTC  

the point is

2017-05-30 19:47:07 UTC  

christianity isn't a "white religion"

2017-05-30 19:47:13 UTC  

It should be.

2017-05-30 19:47:16 UTC  

maybe

2017-05-30 19:47:22 UTC  

We have nothing left that hasn't been muddied.

2017-05-30 19:47:35 UTC  

the oldest christian groups are arab, armenian, ethiopian etc

2017-05-30 19:47:37 UTC  

saying 'christianity" is close to meaningless anyway.

2017-05-30 19:47:44 UTC  

Calvinism is a white religion

2017-05-30 19:47:52 UTC  

calvinism is some bullshit tho

2017-05-30 19:47:55 UTC  

When I say Christianity i mainly mean catholicism. The only real christian faith

2017-05-30 19:47:58 UTC  

white bullshit lol

2017-05-30 19:48:37 UTC  

Id be okay with a bunch of african methodists

2017-05-30 19:48:46 UTC  

Methodism is weird

2017-05-30 19:49:09 UTC  

Theyd prolly chill out

2017-05-30 19:51:34 UTC  

Africans would do what africans do. The reasons they aren't broadly methodist is because they don't want to do methodist things. For most, religion is just the cultural self - it creates conscious "goals" out of our subconscious drives

2017-05-30 19:52:02 UTC  

Calvin doesn't really need Jesus in order to be Calvinist

2017-05-30 19:53:23 UTC  

Sure, once it exists on a conscious and doctrinal level above the subconscious cultural drive, it has some life of its own. But nobody is going to be a catholic who doesn't have needs fulfilled by catholicism.

2017-05-30 19:54:12 UTC  

Calvinism sounds like AA rhetoric

2017-05-30 19:54:22 UTC  

give yourself into a hire power not specified

2017-05-30 19:54:25 UTC  

shit like that

2017-05-30 19:54:55 UTC  

That's probably why it didn't work for da lol

2017-05-30 19:55:00 UTC  

he already has god

2017-05-30 19:56:06 UTC  

calvinism certainly denies free will

2017-05-30 19:56:14 UTC  

not that that means it's wrong

2017-05-30 19:58:02 UTC  

And didn't the fucken church of england start because henry 8 was autistic and wanted to divorce his german wife

2017-05-30 19:58:12 UTC  

And his bro cromwell was like I GOTCHU and they started it up

2017-05-30 19:58:56 UTC  

But then cromwell got necked i think after

2017-05-30 20:02:02 UTC  

you are conflating Oliver Cromwell with Thomas Cromwell

2017-05-30 20:02:53 UTC  

well, actually I just made an unsupported assumption.

2017-05-30 20:02:58 UTC  

sorry!

2017-05-30 20:05:02 UTC  

Lol no i was basing it off of a tv drama i watched

2017-05-30 20:05:38 UTC  

But its cool

2017-05-30 20:07:36 UTC
