We’ve all seen it, and it has become more and more prevalent in recent years. I get the desire to dunk on WASPs, and that’s all in good fun as far as I’m concerned, but I’m getting really tired of reading these weird theological arguments from leftists who think that the problem is the ideological framework of Calvinism or whatever. No. The prots have institutional influence where you live, and that’s all there is to it. In the (many) countries where the Catholic church has institutional influence, they’re the bastards.

They’re the bastards where I live, but I’m not going to start blaming it on the dogma of transubstantiation or whatever, because that would be bad analysis.

      I think it’s fine to say Christianity is bad, I just think doing so in a fashion that is that dismissive in a thread about “weird christian sectarianism on the left” that talks about bad analysis is maybe not the place to do it if you aren’t going to give any reasoning. That said, I didn’t intentionally call you out and I apologize for that.
