The Great Replacement, er, Realignment

 

What´s the future of Christianity in general and its various branches? Redeemed Zoomer speculates about what will happen in the next 100 years. I assume this is about the United States? 

What will *actually* happen globally (on current demographic trends) is that Euro-Christianity will be replaced by South Asian / Central Asian Islam or West African voodoo.

There, I said it. 

Serenity now

 

Oh no, another federal (feral?) shutdown...

Spökläge

 

Är Liberalerna i något slags "spökläge" nu? Fast de verkar ju på *något* sätt förstå att de är i kris. Centerpartiet förstår inte ens det, LOL. Vågar man gissa att KD är next?

Going Mainline

 

 

I´m not *that* interested in Presbyterians, but it was kind of funny listening to Redeemed Zoomer´s expositions on US Presbyterian denominations. All 100 of them. OK, maybe not 100, but you get my point, LOL.

We´ve made it onto the list

YouTube content-creator and super-nerd "Redeemed Zoomer" discusses the most liberal Christian denominations in the world. The Church of Sweden is number four on the list! He´s right about the "Church elections", btw. 

Strangely, the Unitarian Universalists are not on the list, but perhaps they no longer claim to be Christian? I mean, after expelling the Gadflies, the UUA seems to be dominated by Woke trans Otherkin, LOL. 

The worst (according to RZ) is the United Church of Canada, apparently because some of their leaders deny Heaven, Hell and the resurrection. You know, Jesus. They also ordained a pastor who was an explicit atheist?!

Make of this content whatsoever you wish. 

Dude

 

From X. A joke, I hope?

Diversion over?

 

OK, can we go back talking about the Epstein files now? Un-ironic comment.

Drick mer mineralvatten

 

Det här var ju nästan veckans dråpligaste nyhet. Okej, guys, vi får väl dricka mer vatten istället. Från en hälsokälla i Bergslagen, kanske? 

Red Bull-bråk på ICA

Weekly goddess

 

Generic Hindu goddess meditating somewhere on the cosmic ocean. RT for luck?

Into oblivion

 

The tulip again!

So I went down a (little) rabbit hole, since I never understood how Hyper-Preterism could become outright atheism (as seems to have happened to many IO proponents). But then I found the missing link (I actually came across it decades ago at some obscure forum). It´s the CBV, of course. The full pipeline seems to look something like this: partial preterism - Individual Body View (IBV) - Collective Body View (CBV) - Israel Only Full Preterism (IO) - atheism. 

What´s less clear is why. Why does the trajectory look like *this*? Why not simply become an atheist if you start questioning the standard Bible interpretation? Perhaps a certain kind of fundamentalists can´t do so, unless they have a "Biblical" warrant for it? A radicalized form of hyper-preterism provides such. Now, *that* sounds like an interesting rabbit hole, but perhaps not one I will pursue this weekend...
