      I think this is why Protestantism was so successful. I can’t help but think Christ is a deception, an idol placed in front of God. Protestantism at least half way removed this obstacle. The next step is to worship the Gods ourselves, without this Levantine deception obstructing the light

      Often filled with conjecture so if someone does do Greek civilization in depth, will be nice to see that stick with known verifiable depictions and quotations vs greek experts saying wild things about the septuigent. First time hearing this channel so I’m not speaking directly for or against. Just imo seems the Greeks are revered somewhat over zealously.

      @@AustrianPainter14 I am Armenian and have studied Irano-Armenian religious, cultural and linguistic exchanges across the centuries. Your assertion is false when it comes to Iran and its precursor civilizations. The Greeks and Armenians were the first and second largest populations inhabiting Byzantium prior to Ottoman conquest and there emerged a deeper cultural and historical tie between the 2 peoples sharing the same minority status under Ottoman rule--but Armenians have always been closely influenced and allied with Parthian and Sasanian empires and their adoption of Zoroastrianism.

      I meant ancestrally, religiously and linguistically closer to Greeks, but even then I would still say they std closer to Greek culture. A few thousand Armenians in Iran doesn’t change that, as you can see ethnic Iranians don’t even border Armenia. Iran did not come to the defense of Armenia like they said they would even when Azerbaijan invaded.

    Great stream, particularly likes the partial synergy between Protestantism and Judaism.
    But after careful reflection, it seems to me that it was Lincoln who in 1850 destroyed the image of the Founding fathers, white Christian nation. His XO was a weapon of race-mixing against the south.
    And that XO, using race against white people as a war-weapon has become the Greatest Hits that keeps coming on the radio.
    WW2 and Woke are just modern remixes.
    Until the Prime Symbol is returned .... Western culture chases the race-mixing suicide dream.
    And yes, ultimately Protestants - they just don't feel it because they don't take the Eucharist so have no feeling-bridge.
    Also ... Europe did not feed America with culture, America was not used as the Vanguard of Europe .... eventually ties were lost and other forces (for instance the negrenergy / minority causes) took over the entire emotional tone of America was replaced with the head of a snake.
