The death of Christianity in the U.S.

Christianity has died in the hands of Evangelicals. Evangelicalism ceased being a religious faith tradition following Jesus’ teachings concerning justice for the betterment of humanity when it made a Faustian bargain for the sake of political influence. The beauty of the gospel message — of love, of peace and of fraternity — has been murdered by the ambitions of Trumpish flimflammers who have sold their souls for expediency. No greater proof is needed of the death of Christianity than the rush to defend a child molester in order to maintain a majority in the U.S. Senate. Evangelicals have constructed an exclusive interpretation which fuses and confuses white supremacy with salvation. Only those from the dominant culture, along with their supposed inferiors who with colonized minds embrace assimilation, can be saved. But their salvation damns Jesus. To save Jesus from those claiming to be his heirs, we must wrench him from the hands of those who use him as a façade from which to hide their phobias — their fear of blacks, their fear of the undocumented, their fear of Muslims, their fear of everything queer.
Evangelicalism has ceased to be a faith perspective rooted on Jesus the Christ and has become a political movement whose beliefs repudiate all Jesus advocated. A message of hate permeates their pronouncements, evident in sulphurous proclamations like the Nashville Statement, which elevates centuries of sexual dysfunctionalities since the days of Augustine by imposing them upon Holy Writ. They condemn as sin those who express love outside the evangelical anti-body straitjacket.
Evangelicalism’s unholy marriage to the Prosperity Gospel justifies multi-millionaire bilkers wearing holy vestments made of sheep’s clothing who discovered being profiteers rather than prophets delivers an earthly security never promised by the One in whose name they slaughter those who are hungry, thirsty and naked, and the alien among them. Christianity at a profit is an abomination before all that is Holy. From their gilded pedestals erected in white centers of wealth and power, they gaslight all to believe they are the ones being persecuted because of their faith.

The most vital growth of Christianity in North America comes from orthodox Catholicism.

Societies such as the FSSP (Fraternal Society of St. Peter) has reinvigorated the Tridentine Latin Mass and Sacraments and dozens of vigils and observances that were shelved in the modernism and 'simplification' imposed through the Vatican II Council (in the mid 60s). It's brought clarity, reverence and order back to the liturgy and reversed the relativism and subjectivism that has corrupted fundamental Catholic moral teaching (and which was the prime inspiration of V2).

It's fair to say that for large sectors of the American (and Canadian) culture has been on a hiatus from Christianity.. and all of the order, responsibility and meaning it encompasses. But what has that produced. A society racked with death (abortion, euthenasia), confusion, marital breakdown, promiscuity, homosexuality, addiction... one that is desperately unhappy.

So i wouldn't worry. Christianity is at the root of Western Constitutions and culture. Imposing paganistic or atheistic structures on those will produce vast disequilibriums that will have profoundly negative effects on all aspects of society including the economy. Sooner or later people will wise up.

Now there are real problems with Evangelicalism whose explosive growth in poor communities (and throughout South and Middle America) is done through a gimmick of telling people the Christianity is a get rich quick scheme. That definitely is NOT what Jesus taught.

As for the charge that Christianity has become politicized. Well nothing is more political, conformist and oppressive than Political Correctness of the New Age/Culture of Death and Disorder (a fully constituted faith system) that has been in control of Western legislatures, education and media for the last 50 years. That's why they consider an iconoclast and free agent like Trump such a threat.

You'll believe anything on YouTube won't you?

No, because if he did he would be you. I suggest you d a little research into just how many so-called Christian customs were blatantly copied from pagan religions. Like Christmas for example.

The death of Christianity in the U.S.

The teachings of the Christ will not die .. in fact Jesus Christ terminated the ancient Zionism.
Actually, that which will die is the new Zionism and I assure you the Satanism also. :laughing6:

This is because the Zionist and the Satanist challenge God Almighty, and anyone is defeated if he challenges God Almighty .

Muslims and Christians, unite against the Zionism and Satanism: the origin of all evil!

Moreover, it is obvious the recent Christianity is other than the original Christ's teachings.
Therefore, the vanishing away of the Trinity is not contrary to the survival of the original teachings of Jesus Christ: the apostle of God. :D

You are right Christianity was old at least three thousand years before the suggested birth of Christ. The Sun of God is also the Sun of trees and bunnies and worms and much later man who had to be convinced to convert by er agressive marketing such as burning at the stake and time on the rack which had been up until the christians a popular exercise machine.

If all religious texts were destroyed, man would not be able to re-produce the works.

If all the scientific papers in the world were destroyed, man would be able to re-create all of it again.

That is the difference between what is real and what is faery-tale.

IF man were to die out, the planet would continue on. If the planet were to die tomorrow, we would ALL die along with it.

Moreover, Zionists and Satanists cooperate together so as to let the Christ teachings and Mohammed teachings die away, but they will be frustrated.

Some Christians anticipate a new coming of Jesus Christ, while certainly if he comes, he will terminate the Trinity and the enthusiasm: which was the work of the Jew Saul: Paul whom they call Paul the Apostle!

The same anticipation of Muslims about the Mahdi, but should he come, he will terminate the enthusiasm and the idolatry.

Nonsense. The us-vs.-them revenge fantasy is perennial.

Just look at the non-religious who say "I believe things happen for a reason." Utter hogwash, but they just can't accept the notion that the universe cares no more about them than any other critter. People who feed 'em a fantasy that the Great Big Sky Daddy will take them all up to the nice, puffy clouds and feed 'em ice cream and candy while providing them with the torture of "them" for entertainment will always have a following.

You, being a blasphemer, cannot see that the new religion of God is the same new version of the old one,

so that whenever a religion is distorted by the work of blasphemers like you, God will send another apostle: messenger and another message and a new book which will be the update of the old one.

So that the argument will be established against all people.. and the right way should be present among the wrong ways .. and then man will choose whatever way he likes: the right or the wrong. .. and by this the argument is established against man, and he cannot deny and say: I did not know about the correct way.

Your another fake Christian Walter, a real Christian would turn the other cheek and exhibit some meek and tolerance.

You know, little groups of early Christians (a cult within Judaism, at the time) meeting in little hidy-holes around the Roman Empire were a very far cry from what they became. Everything became corrupted, over time. There were about a dozen gospels on the go and probably lots of philosophical debate going on before the Strong Arm Thugs that became the churches beat all of that down.
