“Christianity, if false, is of no importance, and if true, of infinite importance. The only thing it cannot be is moderately important.”
C. S. Lewis
“Christianity, if false, is of no importance, and if true, of infinite importance. The only thing it cannot be is moderately important.”
C. S. Lewis
it could be moderately important if you assume, for example, that even if it's false it has contributed to create western civilization
I think that’s the whole point. These are not simply good principles and a way to live your life. It is much more than that.
Yes it has contributed to weather civilization, but that is irrelevant in light of eternity. That’s what truly matters. And only through faith in Jesus can you gain eternal life.
It can also be moderately important if it has contributed to the decline of European civilization, both by its false doctrines and by its causing us to see ourselves as somehow fundamentally linked to the Middle East, especially to Jews.
We are fundamentally linked to the Jews in that God chose the Jews as the people through whom he would bring the Savior into the world.
Taking that to a level where it means we support the state of Israel no matter what or fund their wars is not biblical.
The relationship of Whites to Jews, or really any people to Jews, is fundamentally one of host to parasite. Paul found a way to disarm the host and prevent him from defending himself. It's worked remarkably well, though I'm not sure we'll survive it.
“There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.” Galatians 3:28
You should be a lot more concerned with your personal relationship to the God who created the universe than the relationship between whites and Jews.
Yes, I agree we should have a deeper level of concern for our alignment with the God who created the Universe. The first step in that journey is to realize that 1) the passage from Paul in Galatians you quoted is pure poison, anti-reality, anti-life, and therefore anti-God; and 2) the god of the Jewish Bible is not, and cannot possibly be, the real God.
There's no such thing as collective responsibility only individual. Zionism is a supremacist ideology, but being a Jew doesn't automatically makes you a Zionist. Even though it's very likely that if you're a Jew you're also a communist. Being a statist, working for the govt those actions make an individual a parasite. Not respecting the NAP makes any individual from any race a worse individual.
