Is Christianity a dead / dying religion in your country, practiced only by the elderly and brown immigrants?

Is Atheism, Buddhism, and Paganism on the rise amongst White people in your country?

What is causing this phenomena?
>>
>>205672372
Your forgot the part where the Romans executed every single member of the religious class in Gaul
>>
>on the rise with a dying people
Thats an interesting way to say "completely irrelevant".

Atheism, Buddhism and Paganism are the birth rate killers btw
>>
Yes and it's a good thing since Christians are major traitors who always suck Muslim cock and bring in more refugees by the boatload every day
>>
I have a severe lack of education if you think Christians didn't assimilate a bunch of pagan beings
>>
>>205672418
Where is your proof + even if that was true it doesn't invalidate the point in the image + I'm not a LARPagan and so don't care I just needed a suitable image for my questions
>>
>>205672372
Christianity is declining but far from dead. Atheism is on the rise. Paganism and Buddhism (actual Buddhism, not "uhh Buddha says we're supposed to be nice or something :)")are irrelevant among white people here.
>>
>>205672531
50% of "Buddhists" in the UK are white people according to the latest census
>>
paganism is just an excuse to dress in silly costumes and have a dance

>paganism
>on the rise
Have you ever been to Beltane? It's the most leftist hippie thing I've ever seen, and all the time I ask pagans, they don't even believe in their own religion. They just pick it up because it strokes their ego.
>>
>>205672570
There is no real Buddhism, real Buddhism died when Asoka insert Hinduism into it, Buddhism in first world is just atheism with Yoga.
>>
>>205673603
Pagan myths, much like biblical ones are not meant to be taken literally.
>>
>>205672372
>Paganism
>On the rise
>>
>>205673603
Most so-called pagans don't believe it literally but see it as a metaphor for nature or certain archetypes
And yeah any such Pagan events are full of insane smelly new age hippies

>>205673659
I've had this discussion before with an Asian Buddhist guy and really it is close to impossible to practice dharma in the West as it was intended originally by the Buddha.
The three jewels are the Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha. There is no Sangha here.
Well maybe if you live in a big city, you will find Buddhist places run by Chinese, Tibetan or Thai immigrants who barely speak English.
But for most people? You would have to travel many hours to attend a Dharma talk, and people aren't willing to submit to be a student and learn from a teacher like is required in traditional Buddhism.
Also many Asians interweave their indigenous cultural beliefs and practices into their Buddhism which many foreigners aren't familiar with, like no white person has a shrine at home to pay respect for their deceased ancestors, white people may have studied Buddhist beliefs but have no clue on the correct etiquette and behaviour for visiting a religious location.

>>205672372
No. Neopentecostal "christians" are growing, and there growing fast.

We reached a point where they have as much control of the media as the jews. Unfortunately they're close allies
>>
You're clearly a paki mate, not sure why you care about what White people believe in? Yeah I know we're your masters but it's not going to give your dogshit third world religions more legitimacy lol

But at least you've made your own cope thread instead of spamming your boring embarrassing incel drivel in /brit/ all day. Now keep your stink arse out, cheers.

Indeed, that sounds like the retarded posts you make all day - just incoherent flailing and raging about Christianity, which is really just a proxy for hating White people because you're a social reject brown loser with a shit life.

It's ok. So far the Anglicans and Catholics hold sway. I dread the day American megachurches finally spread here.

evenagelicals aren't 'allies' with Jews, they are their loyal golem and subservient to them.

Without God good and evil is a matter of opinion. You might think that is cool and based but if you bothered to use the rational mind God gave you you would know that you cannot live out that view.

Romans literally banned druidism in Gallia and Britannia. Also the cult of Isis and some other religions.

Also, pegan gods? Thor? Odin? Jupiter? Get real, if you believe in those, trying to have a serious conversation with you would be as fruit full as trying to have a serious conversation with a left-wing extremist.

Look around you, the west is in shambles because it thinks it does not need Christ and people everywhere are converting to Christianity on a huge scale. You can mock Jesus all you want and say he is a cringe kike on a stick, you can close your eyes and hold for your ears, but the demons will still be there.

Nobody is buying your dying cult about the bronze age tribal desert storm god of the Jews, Yahweh, being the ultimate creator of the universe and also simultaneously being a Jewish carpenter who led a failed rebellion against the Roman rule over Judea.
Grow the fuck up.
>>
>>205678249
>Nobody is buying your dying cult
I got good news for you! Believing in Christ is free! Jokes aside, millions of people follow Christ and many many more around starting to follow him too so what you said there is wrong.
>bronze age tribal desert storm god of the Jews, Yahweh, being the ultimate creator of the universe and also simultaneously being a Jewish carpenter who led a failed rebellion against the Roman rule over Judea.
If you need to misrepresent Christ on purpose to try and get the upper hand you are very silly and i think you understand that, you just haven't thought it through. And if you have actually missunderstood Christ than that's on you and you can read the bible for yourself if you wish to actually learn who Jesus actually is instead of closing your eyes and holding for your ears and come with you bronze age wargod insult
>>
>>205678216
i dont mean this in a combative way but why are there so many different versions of the bible? why does the anglican church have their own bible (KJV)? im not christian but i dont like the anglican church at all. they seem dishonest and rooted in state power and centralization, religion shouldnt be centralized and subject of the forces of government. im far more inclined towards protestantism because of the decentralized nature. king edward literally formed the anglican church because he wanted to divorce his wife, the anglican church was founded on a worldly desire so how can this be reconciled with the teachings of jesus?

*Jesus never started a rebellion against Romans
*Christianity in itself is a branch of Judaism, just as modern Talmudism; the only difference is that Christianity is univerdalist (Catholicism literally means that), see Jesus the messiah and does not ask for circumcission
*there are 2.000 years of Christian tradition
*among all the mysterical doomsday oriental religions within Rome (Eleusys mysteries, Isis cult, Mithraism, Cybele's cult, Gnosticism, etc.), Christianity succeeded at becoming the new Empire's religion

Even if I had not to be Catholic. Christianity is an essential element at the formation of Christendom, the new civilization dominant in Europe during Middle-Ages since Grecoroman civilization was almost exclusively Mediterranean.

From festivities to legislative, political and philosophical elements, even toponyms, many of them derive from Christianity.

Trying to explain about current Europe's culture without Christianity is as explaining Europe without Grecoroman philosophy or Germanic belic-feudal element. It is not an accidental trait but essential.

I agree with everything you said. People are sinnfull and they want it their way instead of Gods way and they come up with a bunch of silly things like that. As for translations, i imagine it is very hard to translate things from old hebrew and Koine Greek to other languages

>Judges 1:19 - Yahweh is defeated by iron chariots
Why would I worship a god so weak that he can be defeated by iron age tribesmen?
If that's the extent of his power he clearly didn't create all reality.

>Psalm 137:9 - Yahweh advocates for taking babies and children, and smashing them against rocks until they are dead
>2 Kings 2:23-24 - Yahweh murders little children via bear attack because they laugh at a bald man
>Exodus 12:29 - Yahweh commits genocide against all the baby boys or Egypt
>Genesis 6:11–9:19 - Yahweh genocides the entire planet
Why would I worship such a clearly evil, psychopathic mass murderer, even if he were a god?
Such a god is unworthy of worship by any moral person.

>1 Kings 14:23; 2 Kings 17:10 - Yahweh is angry that the Jews worship his wife, the goddess Asherah according to the Jewish pantheon (dating to the pre-monotheism era)
>Genesis 1:1 - The word Yahweh isn't used but rather "Elohim". "El" referring to the original father god of the Jewish pantheon, predating Yahwehism. The suffix -im indicating the plural, i.e a multitude of gods associated with El and his offspring.
Why would I worship a god from a religion that claims to be monotheistic, when if you do any research into the history or linguistics, or just read the Bible yourself, there's clear remnants of the fact that it was originally a polytheistic religion?
Doesn't that prove that the faith is man-made?

>Yahweh is defeated by iron chariots
Obviously God could destroy them but he decided not to, and that's just the way the jews wrote it down.
When it comes to the God is evil part, God destroys evil people sometimes, and in the same way a child is hurt if their parents are drug addicts, the children of the evil people suffered.

Can't answrr that because i've never even heard about that stuff and i have read those books, if i had to guess i would say it's from some version deeped non-canon but ill have to read up on it

It may shock you as a New Worlder from a Catholic country, but there are 4x as many Pagans as Jews in Scotland for example.
There's over 100,000 pagans in the UK alone according to the last census.
Somewhere between 2%-5% of Icelanders practice Norse paganism.
Paganism is a state recognised religion in Lithuania.
3% of Russians are Pagans, in Ossetia the figure is over 20%.

Do you think morality is relative? If not how what is your philosophy on that?
>>
>>205678899
There is no absolute law or god in this universe called morality
But there are things I believe we can decide as a society are right and wrong, and we can decide that based on shared human values that most people intrinsically have a sense of
Most people inherently have a good idea of what is right and wrong
For example, you don't need to read a book to know inflicting pain on other beings is wrong
We can build our own morality

There are more (real) pagans in LatAm than in Europe. The most Catholic least pagan regions of South America are as pagan as the regions in Europe that got less Catholic missionaries. Some other regions just worship Jesus and old pre-hispanic deities at the same time. Catholicism arrived into America very late and spreaded slowly.
