Is the West Becoming Pagan Again?

This year, at the height of what used to be called the Christmas season, a Pew Research Center poll on religion revealed that only slightly more Americans described themselves as Roman Catholics (21 percent) than as believers in “nothing in particular” (20 percent). The millennial generation, which includes most adult Americans under 40, is the first one in which Christians are a minority.

Ms. Delsol is quite clear that what is ending is not the Christian faith, with its rites and dogmas, but only Christian culture — the way Christian societies are governed and the art, philosophy and lore that have arisen under Christianity’s influence.

Be it East, West, South or North upon the entirety of humanity on Earth, consider the following details in terms of falling short to the Glory of God:

[10] As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: [11] There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. [12] They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one."

Interesting comment considering that many of the Aztec wars were for the purpose of obtaining captives for sacrifice ... thereby saving their own people.

By suggesting that Aztec and Polynesian religions were a form of Shinto suggest contact between those cultures which has never been shown ... although I would agree with the similarities.

Possibly, but not necessarily. Shinto is popular all over the world, not just Japan. Japan just has an actual name for it.

It is a belief that there are no gods, per se, but only various demons and spirits that exist in parts of nature, such as an unusual tree, rock, land formation, mountain pass, the sea, important things in their life, and of course, the so-called 'elements' (fire, water, air, and earth). Usually such have observed sky closely over the years and mark the equinoxes and summer and winter solstice with major celebrations. The winter solstice celebrations are usually centered around calling the Sun back from darkness. Now that Winter solstice has passed, they are once again reassured that Spring will come.

You will find this same pattern in many indian tribes including the Hopi, which went so far as to document their religion and culture in a book. The coastal tribes here in Washington carry similar beliefs.

You will find it in various religions across Europe as well.

In Japan, you will find a shrine to one thing or another on many street corners. These are Shinto shrines, used to pay homage to whatever spirit or demon the shrine is for.
 
Its a hairball to say much of anything about the aztecs incans or myans. They're dead and gone. All slaughtered by spanish catholics and then forcibly indoctrinated. And we're talking about a people who warp, revise, erase, and rewrite history. Not to mention whole natural propensities just as a matter of course. You'd have a better and more worthwhile time of discussing what harry potter likes for breakfast.

Nope. Both Aztecs and Mayans still exist. Indeed, they had a hell of a New Year's eve celebration when the Mayan calendar recycled in 2012.

If you're going to quote scripture, at least don't take it out of context.
 
Dont blame me, youre kind are the shit for brains that never in 2 thousand years bothered to check what jesus sounds like to a roman.

So? Pull your head out of your pasty white ass, limey. In 'Murica, Jesus is the Mexican mechanic down the street.

Do you know how it sounds in the original Spanish, son?

How it sounds in anything other than the original roman latin is irrelevant.

You dont seem to have the intellect to recognize a big goddamn plot hole. Bigger than any volcanic caldara.

Why would an all powerful god, who can see a past present and future simultaneously, just goof and name his only son after some damned fag god? Especially if it were known that god was a jealous and vengeful god besides being, good?

Your whole story makes no sense.

Only to a pasty faced, lying chav wanker like yourself thinks Latin is important to a Hebrew name. LOL

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jesus_(name)
Jesus (/ˈdʒiːzəs/) is a masculine given name derived from Iēsous (Ἰησοῦς; Iesus in Classical Latin) the Ancient Greek form of the Hebrew and Aramaic name Yeshua or Y'shua (Hebrew: ישוע).[1][2] As its roots lie in the name Yeshua/Y'shua, it is etymologically related to another biblical name, Joshua.[
 
ROFLMAO It's always interesting to see an immature Limey shit his pants over an American. :laugh: :rofl2: :laugh:

Trust me, youre never going to strisand effect me into liking them slime bags.

You're acting like you dont even know my first proof of why i know the british are funding domestic terrorist groups in america. Frankly, they all think we funded the ira through Gaddafi, which honestly, we probably did. So, the fund antifa and feminist groups through soros.

I know you've read this before and i know you know im who said it.

But dont stop, maybe someday you'll remind me of something good and useful.

Nope. Would have nothing to do with it. If it were a hebrew name that also sounded like ji-zeus then that would explain why the roman pleb publishers picked it.

It's already proven jesus wasn't the guy's name at all. So the only question left is where did it come from.

Why would a jealous vengeful one-god, pick a name that sounded anything like "marry zeus"? The chief fag god of the fags that crucified him?

Doesnt make any sense. It must be explained or you have to admit theres a great big fkn plot hole in your dimbfuckastan fantasy book.

fuck off limey. Go suck some blood pudding.
 
Also, you're forgetting, in all instances, spoken language precedes written language.

Your etymology citation is next to meaningless as a counterpoint and simply better supports my point in the first place.
