The Muslims will get to them, eventually. Don't you worry your sweet little head about that.

Because that's what it is. Having some basis in reality doesn't change that.

Assuming that they survive the expedition, see Chronicles.

The day Christian Fundamentalism was born

quote:

Unlike more mainstream Protestants, fundamentalists did not expect to see a righteous and holy kingdom of God established on earth. Instead, they taught that the Holy Spirit would soon turn this world over to the Antichrist, a diabolical world leader who would preside over an awful holocaust in which those true believers who had not already been raptured to heaven would suffer interminable tribulations.


quote:

Fundamentalists believed that in the end times, oppressive governments would clamp down on Christians’ rights and liberties. As a result, they opposed any expansion of the power of the federal government and became highly suspicious of anything that seemed to undermine their religious freedoms and longstanding privileges.


quote:

Although fundamentalists claimed to represent the traditional faith, they were pioneering innovators who remade Christianity for tumultuous times. There was little “conservative” about them. Although fundamentalists made modernist theology one of their primary enemies, they drew on modernist thought and practice just as much as their liberal counterparts. Their dependence on modernism was most obvious in how they read their Bibles. They treated it like an engineering manual. They saw individual verses as pieces of data that they could extract, classify, cross-reference, quantify, place into taxonomies and then reassemble, to form something new. Unlike actual religious conservatives, they had no sense of tradition or community, nor did they care much for the historic creeds.

there is a fundamental difference between wanting to “kill” a belief system and thinking that it should not dominate the lives of those who do not share it.


Where do you see this happening?
How is this "domination" manifesting itself in your life??
If you cannot answer that, is it possible that it is just a paranoid fear originating inside of your mind?
Serious question.

What's with the persecution complex? Who's singling out Christianity? Islam and Judaism are every bit as preposterous....


You're confused. That thought is disjointed at best, imo.

There were philosophers in the 18th and 19th centuries who advocated rejecting religion. Heaven was seen as a form of Utopia. Without the concept of God or heaven then Utopia could be created on earth.

The recipe for that required the perfection of the individual. Since the individual is imperfect, only the state can force this to happen. The state has the moral right to do so because individual achievement and happiness only comes from the state ('you didn't build that').

The leaders of the state will not abuse their power because only the brightest and most just will be selected for leadership.

What could possibly go wrong?


Great post!

Because your question is based upon an utterly-nonsensical premise.

It is hard to provide a “plan of action” to take after “killing” a religion, when there is no “plan” to kill it to begin with.


It was not stated that there was a "plan" to kill it.
The question was, what is the "plan" after it has been accomplished.

Young people are killing Christianity because it’s a preposterous Bronze Age middle-eastern creation myth that makes zero sense.


Actually no. "Young people" are being taught by the sensibilities of liberal leftists via their exposure to public education, "news" media and culture media via movies, music, SJW "movements" etc.

Your implication that "young people" are smart and insightful is a real hoot!
We should let 16 year olds vote!!!
