American imperialists took away the power of my blessed monarch, the emperor of Japan.
We Japanese will rise again. Our rightful clay will be returned to us plus more.

Christian Mexico is objectively better than pagan Mexico
Just like how Christian Europe was objectively better than both pagan and secular Europe.
Likewise Christian Japan would be objectively better than pagan Japan.

This, and it saddens me that Japan isn't a Christian nation, because Catholicism had a glorious tenure in it. Several thousand martyrs, and it survived underground for over a hundred years! Then a certain president dropped nukes on it…

It's closer to animism than polytheism. Christianity is no stranger to coexisting with belief in the existence of nature spirits and such. Hell, in Romania and Ukraine, there at least used to be a tradition of putting painted Easter eggs into rivers to let underground ratmen know when it was time to celebrate Easter. As long as people aren't worshipping them, it should be fine, far as I'm aware.

Many people say the bombs broke Japan's spirit. They're wrong, the Japanese spirit was truly broken by MacArthur forcing the emperor to deny his divinity. What they did was the equivalent of holding Jesus, or Allah at gunpoint and making them tell they're followers that everything they said was bullshit

How was he understood to be divine? Is this similar to the idea of Divine Right of Kings?
As a Christian, I assert the monarch and the church should be inseparable. They should reinforce one another.
Also I am sympathetic to the Japanese Empire, they were forced to accept liberalism by the barrel of a gun. The Japan of today is just a pathetic shadow of America not even resembling that Empire.

And how has that worked out today? Man is fundamentally religious therefore the state is either harmonised to the church or seeks to destroy the church and impose its own state religion. We need the double headed eagle, the Byzantine answer. Church and state in cooperation and symphony. No one is arguing the state is above the church so don’t even try to imply that is our position. It doesn’t take a genius to realise for centuries from Constantine to the early modern era Christians have been for a confessional state. Secularism is anathematised. Even the Lutherans advocated monarchy.

No, it was secular power that initiated this revolution. The Church didn’t need to be separated from the state for almost two millennia. Why all of a sudden now? This is the definition of a modernist - one who sees thousands of years of tradition and dismisses it because it doesn’t gel with the current year. The Church is taxed to death in America if any priest teaches against modern degeneracy. The culture has fallen so low and the religious authority has been broken in the west, now we are at the mercy of a demonic secular establishment.

And we saw the problems that caused. If you knew fucking ANYTHING about the history of the church, you'd see those problems (some of which still exist in places that reject the separation of church and state, like China). Temporal authority appointing bishops. Political corruption plaguing the RCC. At certain points, the Byzantine Emperor basically ran the EOC. No thanks. This has nothing to do with how things are done now and everything to do with how many problems there were from how things were done before.

If this were the case there would not have been heretical emperors or great martyrs for our faith. Orthodoxy would have become a heresy factory, and it hasn’t. :)

The Catholic Church as a worldly institution more or less started the liberal mess by playing up the "two swords" doctrine and refusing to exert sovereign power over the medieval princes when they were in a dominant position. Eventually the princes got the upper hand (see prots).

>if there are periods of time when the Patriarch of Constantinople was weak to the Emperor, then that means that there was no contesting between the two
Look, from reading Crisis in Byzantium, it seems to me that the Emperor was king over temporal affairs, while the Patriarch was ruler over spiritual affairs. One could not fuck with the other without severe consequences, and they both knew this.
