With Putin talking about the orthodox church being holy and using to justify some conservative bullshit, all I can remember was the bolsheviks going around the country proudly declaring that cities were now "officially godless" and redistributing the church's gold amongst the people and using it to pay for electrification projects.

    And where did they get it from? Places without a history of abrhamic religion tend to be way more chill about sex.

    This take is so wildly a historical I am not even sure where to start. We spend millions of dollars a year on enforcing abstinence education world wide because churches are so enamored with it.many people die from lack of repoductive health because we dont wanna risk them getting abortion, the hayes code, the policing of women every cathlic person, sex workers, like a fifth of all cathloic people through history specifically, lgtbqi persons,..

      Guy I just told you the reason I find sex weird is that I'm culturally uncomfortable with any public display of vulnerability that's not a Christian thing it's an English thing

        Thats true for you. But that isn't most people. Further old pagan english people liked to party.

        It is chrisendom they got that from and they spread it everywhere they imperized. You can see a clear split kof christian and pre christian norms in most places. And then in places like Egypt where they destoryed all the old sexy art you cant even see the trend
