and you can’t tell where the building is from the way it looks

whereas much of the stuff done by Kenzo Tange is definitely from Japan or at least some part of East Asia

@Lieutenant Phys What the hell is "Orthodox Christian Identity"?

Eastern Orthodox you should know

Christian Identity is the belief that europeans are god's chosen people

I.e replacement theology

Yeah, that's not in line with Orthodox theology

Explain..

Theological autism is not my forte. All I know CI is we wuz kangz for anglos

Replacement theology is not specific to Baptism if you were to have that belief

What does that even mean

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supersessionism

How does baptism factor into it

Well I see Baptist churches talk about it most, but you said it aint compatible with Orthodoxy

@Lieutenant Phys everyone who believes is God’s chosen people

Yup

That is essentialy Christian identity

whether Chinese, Europæan, MENA, or Subsaharan

We that believe in the lord are god's chosen people

We are __spiritually__ Israel

but what Christian Identity people tend to promote is ‘White people’ as God’s chosen people

Okay. Then why the autistic "Identity" cling-on?

my Christian identity was given to me in baptism

and my parents rejoiced

Reference for others

yeah, that’s not a religious tradition

It's a belief not a tradition, never stated it as one

then it’s not an affiliation

because affiliation has to do with sonship, from Latin *filius*

Whatever

it’s about the tradition in which you count yourself a son of the Church

Son of god you mean

We are god's children

both, as St Cyprian says and John Calvin also affirms

‘He can no longer have God for his Father, who has not the Church for his mother.’

What if the Church turns for the devil like what we see with Catholic churches, and eventually even deny Jesus as their messiah?

Would it even be a church anymore?

then it ceases to proclaim the word of God and administer the sacraments duly

such a diseased member is to be cut off

lest its gangrene take over the whole
