/christian/ - Christian Discussion and Fellowship

The difference is that the voters aren't random people that happen to vote Harambe if they feel like it would be funny.

/Pol/ can influence the common person, but we're talking cardinals here, Jesuit cardinals.

If anything, we might get in trouble for it.

>>662587

Lol, the Vatican isn't a democracy, its more like a theocratic oligarchy.

> /pol/ memed something into existence

actually /pol/ was memed into believing something

you give them too much credit

>>662595

So we are going to have to play dirty then?

>>662587

Why would Sarah make a good Pope?

>>662596

this

>>662596

yep

>muh meme magic

We can pray, can't we?

I can't wait till based black pope makes my guitar playing deacon face the altar

>>662587

>why can't we meme Sarah to become Pope

By 'memeing', you should pray and fast

>>662587

>black pope

this would be amusing as hell, so yeah it'd be funny enough to meme. Memeing does have some "magick" element to it, but mostly prayer and fasting would work. HOWEVER, memes would be more effect in so far to spread the idea of having him as a pope, and getting people to like him.

> the next pope should be traditionalist and militantly anti-islam to counter the current heretical cuck pope

Cardinal Sarah is both of these things

He's more anti-immigration than all the white Italian homo cardinals that's for sure

>>662707

>black pope

Actually, given what that immediately conjured up in my head, I'm not in any mood to indulge in possible accelerationism.

You cant "meme" anything. All happens according to the will of God.

>>662587

How can you be Christian and want to use "meme magic"? Surely, it's just occult? From my recollection, "meme magic" is built upon the idea that the Universe is alive and conscious, it is you and you are it. When you think of something, you bring it closer towards yourself (Law of Attraction) so if a bunch of people think of the same thing intently, they'll more readily bring it forth.

>this entire post

I dont think you actually understood the meaning of the post. There was no talk about meme magic at all. And no, meme magic wasnt eve serious to begin with.

>>662787

back to >>>/islam/. God is not a puppetmaster

>>662587

His eminence would smash your idea, because it reeks of hubris and stupidity in that you think you could actually change something in the hierarchy with crap on the internet.

If you want him to get in the right position, pray and fast. That's it.

>>662863

It's bad semantics for using grassroots-based mass persuasion tactics to counteract the mass persuasion tactics of the media.

We need this to happen, we need to win.

>>662868

Except grass-roots movements are based in the real world. Meme-magic doesn't leave the board. For example, the idea that anyone "memed" Trump into the White House is laughable. Not one of the 538 Electors ever saw an 8/pol/ Trump meme.

As for using "meme magic" to elect a Pope, I'm pretty sure that's not how electing a Pope works. The 120 Cardinal electors aren't going to browse /christian/ or take a meme as advice on who to elect.

>Not one of the 538 Electors ever saw an 8/pol/ Trump meme.

Well, literally millions of the people who voted for him did, and many of them were influenced at least subconsciously by them. You're seriously arguing that internet memes didn't effect the election? How is what the desiccated hides of the electors have come into contact with even relevant? The electors haven't voted contrary to how their state did in the past hundred years (if they ever have, I don't know). Your idea of how politics works is what's really laughable.

And again, I don't know if you're naive or just being purposefully obtuse if you think that public mood and the media has no effect on who is elected Pope. By all accounts there was even pressure on Benedict to resign so that the very liberal Francis could be elected. If all these decisions happen in a perfect vacuum like you think, who was pressuring him? The college of cardinals, because they were just that jazzed about Bergoglio's authentic and fervent interpretation of scripture and Chrurch tradition? Give me a winnie the pooh break.

>"I, the LORD, search the heart, I test the mind, Even to give to each man according to his ways, According to the results of his deeds." Jeremiah 12:3

>But the LORD said to Samuel, "Do not look at his appearance or at the height of his stature, because I have rejected him; for God sees not as man sees, for man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart." 1 Samuel 16:7

>"As for you, my son Solomon, know the God of your father, and serve Him with a whole heart and a willing mind; for the LORD searches all hearts, and understands every intent of the thoughts If you seek Him, He will let you find Him; but if you forsake Him, He will reject you forever." 1 Chronicles 28:9

Do not judge others according to appearance. God will judge them according to their hearts. If they, as they claim, are not worshiping statues and Saints, God knows if. If they are, then they will be accountable for their idolatry. Either way, you need to shut your trap about it because you cannot see into people's hearts and minds as He does.
