Why was Jack Chick so fucking schizophrenic? I refuse to believe he genuinely thought that the Vatican created Islam and Communism.
>>18589345hes a prottie retard. but i believe Justinian and by extension the Orthodogs directly created Islam going scorched earth on christians in ME and then taxing the shit out of them.
People that take theology seriously generally have to tie themselves in insane knots. You occasionally come across somewhat educated types even on reddit etc who for whatever reason cannot detach themselves from it and it results in a very interesting worldview.
>>18589345>Chick>out line of current pope>>18589348Islam has more to do with talmudic jews then orthos
>>18589375>Islam has more to do with talmudic jews then orthosim not denying it does. Its just that the root cause of Islam taking off and the West being briefly destablized all traces back to Justinian and Orthodogs. So, there is a much bigger case for Orthodoxs facilitating the rise of Islam than the Vatican.
>>18589381>The west being briefly destabilized.The former western Roman empire was in shambles irregardless of Islam. And non-Roman Europe wasn't much better.The papacy wasn't much of an independent political agent during this time, anyway. That would only develop during the same time period all the recognizeably 'western' features of the west come from.
My friend and I used to get tons of free Chick tracts by writing pathetic letters saying we were doing mission work but didn’t have any money. I wonder if they’ll still fall for that.
>>18589381Byzantines being weak from warfare gave rise to Islam. No theology involved.
>>18589460Kek, I wonder if I could bum boxes of my favorite tract by doing that.
How is it schizo to warn people of the evil machinations of the Papists?
>>18589345protestantism is just an extension of anglo obsession with hyper individualism. at least muslims have an ummah, even if they do disagree with each other on some issues.but protestants, no, they care are personal salvation and everyone who doesn't go to bubbah's baptist church is going to hell.
>>18589906>at least muslims have an ummah, even if they do disagree with each otherMuslims started to murder each other after their prophet died. Wars of apostasy then sunni shia split. Different sects of sunni will bomb each other today. Umma is an illusion.
>>18589460>We HATE GOD, LIE, and STEAL>Aren’t we so COOL?
>>18589935at least they all agree on palestine
