The irony as that the religion you choose as an alternative was persecuted, and ultimately wiped out by your present religion. |
I don't see it that way. Christianity today is largely Nicenism; not what my family follows. The Nicenes not only persecuted the Greek and Roman mystics, but also persecuted Jews and all other forms of Christianity, including the true Christians - who were themselves mystics. Not to mention, the Nicenes were the ones who turned Christianity into a warlike faith, and slaughtered and murdered in the name of Jesus, and judged others as heretics and heathens if they were not Nicenes themselves. In my opinion, the Nicenes are NOT Christians, the history of their leaders is that of judgemental warmongering hypiocrites. The very fact that they turned into persecutors themselves shows that they are not true Christians - and worst of all, the persecutors of those very people who followed the earliest saints. The "Jesus" which the Nicenes follow has little in common with the actual Christ, and much in common with the antichrist.
The Nicenes (Catholics and the faiths descended from Catholics) follow a form of Christianity whose power arose from the politically superior (namely Emperors like Constantine and Theodosius). It was from these Emperors and their successors, the Kings and Emperors who claimed to be Christian, who would go throughout and persecute those who were not Nicenes. It wasn't until later that the supreme Capital of Western Christianity was in Rome; and while the Bible speaks of Babylon the unholy city, and its 7 peaks.... As we know Babylon is not a city which sits amongst the 7 peaks; there is only one city which is famous for its 7 peaks, and those peaks are: The Capitoline Hill, the Aventine Hill, the Palatine Hill, the Caelian Hill, the Viminal Hill, the Quirinal Hill, and the Esquiline Hill - and that City is Rome. Christianity is a religion of love and forgiveness. it is Rome's Nicene religion, branded as Christianity, that is one of judgment, fear, and persecution; those who follow them go to heaven, and everyone else goes to hell - typical fear driven religion of the Nicenes.
I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
