What caused the rise of irreligiosity in Europe after the war?
>>18471419Christkikery had been losing ground to liberalism since the enlightenment, even though essentially liberalism has always been just secular christkikery in the first place
>>18471419Ireland does come out of that looking the most fucked up, that’s true
>>18471419Two replies and neither of them was the Jews? Wow.
I wouldn't worry about it.
>>18471419Communism first and foremost, which the east and west division in Germany clearly shows. Another is materialism and the sexual revolution. People with access to excessive material pleasure want to pursue them guilt free and so turn away from religion rather than be constrained by notions of right and wrong in self-indulgeance.
In the west, secularism predated WW2 and the Catholic Church was long waning in influence and power. Protestant sects don't have any central authority to govern their creed, so without a major, concerted effort by protestant religious leaders to stir up religious fervor (the way they do in the US) it will naturally cede ground to secularism. In the east, communism destroyed the Eastern Orthodox faith and it has literally never recovered.

>>18471609Where does the word kike originate from?
>>18471613Where does christinsanity originate from?
>>18471632The seperation of the Christian cult from the jews which viciously persecuted them. Kike originates from the practice of jews who hated the symbol of the cross so much that they refused to sign legal documents with a cross, instead opting for a "kikel" circle
>>18471419Following the war there was actually a rise in religiosity, however it was largely as part of new movement that rejected established religion and often even the concept of organised religion altogether. It attempted to distill religion to what they saw as it's core elements, peace and love etc, ignoring all the perceived clutter of legends and tradition. This reached it's height in the 60s and 70s evolving into hippie stuff like the Jesus movement. Some of these groups would become modern charismatic evangelical Christians. For the most part though it basically just resulted in secularising religion
