there is another, occult element here I believe

a hidden hand

but I guess that's not relevant to this particular exchange

obviously, middle class, just as every group there is on the planet, must operate using the same logic, that is, making an interest group within and denying resources or power to the outsiders

I dont think that is a valuable way of understanding the middle class, human connection is much lower level than this

but because society is perfectly levelled, is why we have this radical dystopia - the elite, or 1%

and the rest

the undifferentiated mass of people who have no power, and above all, no control

that much I agree with

the true nihilistic meritocracy

so the reason soviet union failed, and progressivism persisted

is because making everyone a worker ceased being such a feasible option

self chosen rather than top down damnation

instead, a middle class alternative won, which attempts to make everyone a citizen

a consumer, sure

Christianity is good for the middle class

and good full stop

No

one needs to separate certain religious behaviour from the truth of a certain faith

Christianity today sources both its clerics and it's flock from two classes of people

though ends are still a good barometer

Working class people aspiring to be middle class people

It's good in regard that it keeps value, culture and tradition going

faggot striver poors

It's metaphysically lame

While I dont believe in christianity, it's metaphysically sound

I don't think it is

Aside from the flaws in the Bible

And on the other hand, a certain brand of conformists who externally appear to be "against the system" but who internally, completely embrace the pathetic mindset of the herd, which is essentially the desire for safety as a top priority

there is more wisdom and understanding about the nature of existence in christian discourse, bible or no bible, than any other

It gives reward to those of passive ethics

what's pathetic about that mindset, seems quite sensible

Even muslims are better, they're more stern at least

Nowadays

transient, meaningless

eventually muslims will become as christians now

except a bit dumber

well I mean we'll get the second coming before that

but in theory

Christian dogma is what it is, an entirely passive spiritual mode

Bible on the other hand is a valuable source
