The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

Repost. I was raised protestant, but eventually came to the conclusion that God did not exist based on classic dialectic discussions, though I myself always categorized myself as a hopeful agnostic since then, as outright denial I felt was equally foolish. There is little unique to my story; I found /pol/, was filled with the rage instilled in me by the social degenerates who degraded me and my race and the propagandized their rank and file empty headed communists and various racial surprise soup to both deny me right to be heard and branded me with the sin of being born white. I long since trained my mind and tempered my soul with vengeance, I hated and still hate freely those who demean my people, turn them into walking garbage can and corrupt the world.

But now even the people of /pol/ are a walking cesspit of larping empty headed creatures, posting the same meaningless, thoughtless tripe ad infinitum. They have like the left, devoured every ally who did not appease their endless needs and destroyed whatever power / unity they were actually beggining to accumulate in 2015 and 2016 and forfeited it KKK Redneck tier patheticism. The board infested likewise by CIA and FBI posters have also exacerbated their natural instinct to eat each other alive at every turn, and now stand utterly and hopelessly divided.

This and another event I shall not describe for brevity have levied me with a conclusion; that is, evil prevails. And yet in this thought I look out to the thought that in such case there must in fact be a God, for if no good can take true route but only parody or even partially imitate it, surely there is an other above whom this descends from. But from this revelation comes great and new found rage.

Why has such evils been visited upon us? Why are the caananites at our doors? Why must this Christians insist on Jesus and forgive their atrocities and obscenities, why not be like the Father who wiped Gomorah from the face of the earth for the blight it was? Why is it written "vengeance is mine", what right does God have to justice that is not his to take or savor? Why has the Father not raised an army like the Crusades of the last sons of his gospel to repel the evils of many nations? Why does he allow courage & beauty to die in place of cowardice and decadence?

If God ever shined his providence on America, would anyone disagree that he has left? That he has forsaken us to die amongst enemies and evils, raising children whom shall destroy us and destroy his gospel? Where are the Crusaders? Who are these Fops and trust fund lushes you push out as supposed speakers of Truth? Is it not true Lord, that might makes Right? Are you not the embodiement of such philosophy, for who would follow a God without fear of power, but more accurately, who instills fear in the enemies of God, supernatural and corporeal, and who is capable of offering salvation? Would you be worshipped if such things could not be garunteed? Why then should forgiveness be offered to the demons in flesh, the degenerates who murder their children, the rapers of countries old and young?

I cry out for answers, if you were flesh would we not wrestle? Is there one among your followers here who has even a lucid note of illumed thought of your Godly word, or should I merely expect the same tripe? Why, must evil prevail?

Nice prose, though a bit pretentious in some places. Like, the phrase "lucid note of illumed thought" was a bit much.

Still though, would have mad Nietzsche proud. 7/10

As for what you are saying, it's funny, because this would have been the same sort of thing people in Saint Augustine's time thought. Augustine, and the thinkers of his time, were greatly influenced by a terrible event that happened within their lives: the sack of Rome by the Visigoths in 410AD.

It was so terrible and shocking because, for the prior few centuries, Rome was considered untouchable. The Roman Empire wasn't considered just a civilisation, it was considered civilisation itself. And even though the concept of "the fall of Rome" is a complex one; even though the Western Roman Empire was in decline for many years prior, and persisted for many years after, what happened in the year 410AD was considered by many people to be the moment that Rome died. When, for the first time in 800 years, the city which was seen as the very heart of civilisation was violated by barbarians.

We might be seeing something similar today in regards to the west. We may haven't gotten to that dire point yet, but it feels like it is coming. When we find ourselves in a world where a once proud civilisation was struck down, causing disillusion and a feeling of being forsaken by the heavens.

St Augustine wrote "The City of God" in this context. Maybe it is worth looking into that.

Well that is the first issue.

You worry about this world to much instead of the world to come. There have been many many books written on this subject so I suggest looking into one of those. You are not the first to question Our God who is all powerful and all good for by his own divine love he allows you to pose such questions and not strike you down.

Your godless materialism and attachment to wordly things and this life are the cause of your misery.Christ makes it very clear, the wheat will be separated from the weed when the time comes. Instead of worrying so much about this life, which is temporary, and nothing, rather worry about the life afterwards, which you lose with your behaviour and foolishness. There are endless parables by Christ, endless teachings, endless stamentes. And knowing none of them, nor caring about them, you talk about "wrestling with God" lmao. You just wrestle with your childish ideas.

>Is it not true Lord, that might makes Right?

It seems your brain is as rotten and decrepit as your soul. Forgiveness is given to all who repent. You have forsaken God, now bear the consequences, like the rest of the world.

What are you talking about? Are you drunk? Your pretentious mess is not even readable lmao, how about you write something that tries to actually communicate something instead of being a romantic idiot? How about you stop decorating what probably can be said in 10 words with a million meaningless ones?

There is a name for those who want to have the old testament without Christ: jews (I mean… "Yahweh") . So good luck, rabbi, with your prosperity gospel nonsense. Meanwhile we have the actual teachings of God, that the Kingdom of God is not of this world.
