    Default Resolved: The primary reason for the collapse of Christianity is WW1

    The religious elite overwhelmingly got this war wrong, and blew the credibility of the faith.

    I recently heard this argument, which I have never heard before now.

    What say you?
    I choose my own words like the Americans of olden times........before this dystopia arrived.

    I long ago heard the argument that the Christian Elites got WW2 wrong.

    Many people now argue that the #1 cause of the collapse of the West is that Christianity collapsed.

    It would follow that those who mock and demean Christians here do have a point.

    What say you?
    How did they get it wrong?
    And what did religion have to do with WWI?

    Christianity's collapse started with the enlightenment
    “If we have to have a choice between being dead and pitied, and being alive with a bad image, we’d rather be alive and have the bad image.”

    — Golda Meir

    Zionism is the movement for the self-determination and statehood for the Jewish people in their ancestral homeland, the land of Israel.


    “If Hamas put down their weapons, there would be no more violence. If the Jews put down their weapons, there would be no Israel."

    I agree with the argument that the enlightenment got a lot wrong, as the WOKE argue....I have been saying that the Enlightenment fucked up for over 30 years.

    It works for me that the Enlightenment was when the mistake was made, was the original sin, but it was WW1 when the masses figured it out.

    I am right almost more than anyone else is, because unlike almost everyone else I got myself educated.

    Obviously fake. Christianity did not collapse.
