Eeeeeeeh.

How do you figure that? I posit that as soon as the roman empire made Christianity the official religion of the empire, that's when things went very sideways, and that the orthodox church is very likely the closest, most correct successor of the church of the first century. Even if I'm not nor will ever likely be orthodox myself.

I love these conversations and I think it's reasonable to hold to what you've just said, especially living in the modern West.

I am certainly not blessed to engage in heavy apologetics... as tempting as it is, but allow me to leave some books that flesh these ideas out. They are pretty easy to get through.

I'm not so sure about that. The new testament constantly talks about the church as the bride of Christ, but, since it is full of humans, and taking another analogy, the vine, there are branches that need to be pruned.

THE church exists, and it is us, but most of the various denominations are abominations these days and, yet again, it starts to come down to the individual, as it seems to have always been.

I'm not particularly sold on there needing to be a large, contiguous, samey-same body of followers of Christ.

Eeeeeeeh.

Saylor is more based than he is allowed to present himself publicly as a public facing exec. He literally said he read the creature from Jekyll island. It’s time for ops to actually read that book instead of larping about it. It explains how the fed was a Jewish creation created behind the curtains . This book used to be considered a “conspiracy theory” in the 2000s lollll before Bitcoin.

Just grabbed this beauty; ‘The Nephilim looked like Clowns’, excited to get into this book by Paul Stobbs (Understanding Conspiracy).

Supremely bored by bitcoin Twitter's book recommendations. It's always the same thing – Hayek, Mises, Rothbard, Ayn Rand, that sovereign individual, yawn, yawn, yawn.

I want books that make me think, not books that reinforce what I already know. Give me niche post-structuralists, anarchists and revolutionaries. Give me poets and weirdos and outcasts, not CIA funded neocon thinkbois. Escape the echo chamber, anon.

Beauty makes Marxist viscerally angry.

At first that seems odd until you remember that communism is simply a bunch of ugly weirdos getting together to make being normal illegal.

Evolution is one of the biggest lies ever told.

When money can be freely printed, "scientific proof" of anything becomes completely meaningless. Endless money will purchase any outcome desired by those with a line to the money printer.
