mall ninja christian crusader :pika-cousin-suffering:
edit is that a holy hand grenade
The holy hand grenade of Antioch! And for the low, low price of $3,456.78!
three thousand four hundred and fifty six shall be the number of the counting,
It was right there, and not a complete non sequitur as they so often are lol
They're calling that dagger a "sword". If this were the 16th century Thy Bettere Busineth Bureau would ding them for false advertisement.
Commie liberation theology version of this without any of the crusader shit could go hard though
Engraved "You Cannot Serve God and Money" calligraphy with tactical whip attachment.
Be me
Have two pigeons
head into the Temple of Solomon
see a greasy dude from the coast just trashing the joint with his polycule
leave
I sometimes get the impression that tradcaths just treat Benedict as their anti-pope to get around this.
The Tradcaths would be railing against the introduction of the Tridentine Mass in the 1500s as an innovation if Vatican II hadn't removed it. Also Benedict is not as far removed from Francis as you might think (for both better and worse). He fucking hates the Trads almost as much.
I keep forgetting how weird the hills tradcaths are willing to die in get.
I wish they would set up a legit antipope just for the drama. When's the last time anything funny happened in the world of catholicism
Born-again Christians and tradcaths are two quite different things. I'd say there are much more of the former in America.
If you can manage to pit them against each other, you will have a much better chance of winning a civil war.
I'd say they have a pretty good chance of fighting each other anyways because if there's something that transcends ideologues it's intersectarian infighting
Nah, the Church is rich and big enough that it doesn't need to bother fighting with protestants anymore. Even all those evangelical conmen - they've got their megachurches, and that's cute. Roman See's got its own gold-plated sovereign state.
Of course the church doesn't give a shit, were talking about uppity tradcaths that hate the church but hate protestants more
Honestly the Catholics need to get their shit together and re-start the wars of religion.
"born-again" makes me think evangelical protestant, they did borrow the knight templar from shitty reactionary catholics though
White Christian Nationalists love Templar imagery despite the fact that the Templars would enthusiastically purge them for being heretics. For some reason you never see them stanning the Roundheads or the Dutch.
I'm now imagining some Ulster Militia bringing forward a Knight Templar to drive immigrants out of Ireland and the Templar instantly ups the RA.
the roundheads talked to much about class for them to be comfortable with them
When I first saw this I thought it was a drawn picture because I thought nobody would actually own something this cringe.
And then I looked closer and sighed a deep sigh
ITS ON A FUCKING HOT COUCH KEKW
$1 anyone who owns this case has never seen actual combat outside of FPS games
Just imagining hanging out with a right wing, born again Christian hot couch guy and it's cursed af.
"Bro quit fucking talking over Passion of the Christ goddamn"
Nah there are a bunch of these freaks in the military. Half the airforce is made up of evangelical psychos from an apocalypse cult, and there's tons of them in the other services thinking that killing brown people is a mission from God.
am I a sick person for wanting to see what a white Christian version of ISIS would look like
like please let them at least develop at aesthetic beyond being 6'2, beer gut and tactical shades with beards
oh I forgot about those guys
their aesthetic was pretty dystopian hope we can get the modern adaptation
Between redlining, white flight, and the KKKops the Klan has had it's role formalized and usurped.
In seriousness the better equivalent would be the Falangists or maybe even the Cristeros
White Christian ISIS is a US Army infantry dork who shoots civilians and gets away with it because his commanding officer thinks he's a protestant flavored crusader. IDK if people still remember but the holy war rhetoric was pretty thick during the Bush years.
That's basically the mypillow guy, I wouldn't be surprised if he was funding Christian militias he has ready as sleeper cells.
We don’t love Robert Evans here, but his free novel After The Revolution is set in a Christian ISIS style state.
"It could happen here" is a podcast about the possibility of an American civil war and bellingcat is some reporting agency or something that people here don't like because it has ties to the CIA. Honestly though I don't particularly care, his podcasts are decent
"He who lives by the sword shall die by the sword and that goes for bayonets and all"
