But I mean keep stuff that's the equivalent of classical literature

Classical literature is the very basis of our understanding of this Earthly world of ours and of God, even if he was yet to be discovered then, of course it should be kept.

Yeah, otherwise neckbeards in the future will cry "muh Hypatia" and "muh great library"

Kek.

If we destroy all evidence of non-Christian beliefs, nobody could follow them.

That's incredibly naive.

A counter culture always forms

Think about the amount of heresies that have formed over the years.

Sure, they get steamrolled over by the Apostolic church in the meeting of Thesis-Antithesis

But still

If you'll excuse me for being LARP-y for a second, but to quote V:

"You can't kill an idea"

^He's right

Marxism wasn't exactly new when Marx came up with it, it was all rooted in the same entitlement and complacency that killed off over civilizations.

There's nothing new under the Sun. There will always be the spirit of anti-Christ

If it's not in the form of Hivemind Leftist, it would be in the form of Protestantism. Or Arianism, Catharism etc.

The Catholic Church would get to that same level of bloated arrogance too if it didn't have things to test its resolve.

Well, not so much the church itself..

You get what I mean.

The Church removing the mechanisms of its own criticism was bad, and unsuccessful XD

You don't have to kill an idea if it never existed

At some point in history these ideas didn't exist. What makes you think they cannot be reinvented?

A failed idea is much more powerful than a repressed one

A failed idea shows it's weakness. A repressed one creates a sense of the lost cause myth.

Besides which

Some secular ideas can help to improve your understanding of that which the Church professes.

So much so that some secular ideas became the basis for what the church professes.

Aristotlean Metaphysics went on to become Thomism.

I was led to the church by Evola and Nietzsche.

unrelated update: Gf chose me over female friend to spend part of her birthday together. Feels good drawing lines

Excellent work, chap.

I should probably find a woman

I always thought I'd be married and have at least one by the time I was 30, so when I hit 20 last week I started doing a big thincc. 🤔

28*

Men can usually get married later

True

But the more I waste time, the more likely I am to do things unbecoming of a catholic man.

Why put yourself in that position if you can avoid it, right?

On an unrelated note, gonna start working at a soup kitchen next weekend.

Gospel of Luke really got me, there.

My only hang up is it's in a Mosque. Or a "Cultural centre", as opposed to the mosque itself.
