Catholicism is intertwined with third worldism and other gay leftist movements.
>>217197354the fact that a Jew just casually converts like that does speak wonders about Americans religious atmosphere
>>217197360As opposed to Israel worship that based heritage Americans practice on their knees to Mark Levine?
the US is still the center for evangelical christianity, it's just no longer the dominant religion like in the 2000s

>>217197567>>217197598>Lars Levi Laestadius (Swedish pronunciation: [ˈlɑːʂ ˈlěːvJ lɛˈstɑ̌ːdJɵs]; 10 January 1800 – 21 February 1861) was a Swedish Sami writer, ecologist, mythologist, and ethnographer as well as a pastor and administrator of the Swedish state Lutheran church in Lapland who founded the Laestadian pietist revival movement to help his largely Sami congregations, who were being ravaged by alcoholism. Laestadius himself became a teetotaller (except for his ongoing use of wine in holy Communion)[1]Jeez a Scandinavian reformer if there ever was one
Christianity was a mistake.
>>217197621he lived and preached in the northern Swedish Lapland part where therre lived bunch of Samis and Tornedalians who had been oppressed by the Swedish government and lived poorlyit spread out from there to Finland and the movement is most dominant northern Finlandits really interesting honestly how it all happened.>Tornedalians (Meänkieli: tornionlaaksolaiset; Finnish: tornionjokilaaksolaiset; Swedish: tornedalingar) are an ethnic minority native to the Meänmaa (Torne Valley) region in northern Sweden and Finland.[4] Tornedalians may refer to themselves using several different terms, though most commonly as Tornedalians, Kvens or Lantalaiset.[4][5] Tornedalians were officially recognized as a national minority in Sweden in 2000.[6] >In 2000, a new law went into effect recognising the Tornedalians as an official national minority and Meänkieli as an official minority language. A truth and reconciliation commission on historical discrimination against the population was appointed in 2020, and made its final report on 15 May 2023.[51] In both 2020 and 2023, STR-T, the National Association of Swedish Tornedalians demanded the Swedish government to investigate their status as an indigenous people in accordance with ILO 169, although both times the Swedish government has denied to do so.[54]
