What the frick is that webm motion capture?

It's amazing just as an animation

>>4532

Yeah, it's from the anime. Animating just the motion of her skirt must have taken a lot of work.

>>4537

>skirt

Dress, I mean.

>>4532

>>4537

>>4538

Anytime animation is that sick, slick and smooth, it's always the product of rotoscoping:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotoscoping

Doesn't change the fact that it's still awesome.

>>4530

I know Fist of the North Star is often championed for it's blatant pro-masculinity, but with all due respect, isn't it also infamous for graphic violence as well? (i.e. people's heads literally exploding from the title technique's namesake,etc.)

>>4512

Superbook

Osamu Tezuka was commissioned by the Vatican to create a Bible anime series.

He died during production but did a lot of preproduction work. Directorial duties were handled by Osamu Dezaki

>>4540

>isn't it also infamous for graphic violence as well?

It is, but depending on the medium it's not that bad.

The movie and OVAs follow the manga and are just as graphic. But the original 1984 Toei anime is pretty toned down compared to the manga. Peoples heads still explode but it is shown as a stylized black and white silhouette.

>>4564

Reminded me of the My Last Day anime.

>>4512

It's been scientifically proven that anime turns people gay, so no

>>4576

It has also been scientifically proven that transgenderism is healthy and normal. Science is Satan's bitch, that's why we have the Bible.

On topic: Try Azumanga Daioh, wholesome and funny.

>>4576

Thats what the people pushing child drag shows want you to think.

>>4576

>anime

>the most wholesome of all entertainment media

>non-villain anime girls are overwhelmingly pure, good-natured maidens that blush all the time, and some of them want to wait until marriage for kissing

>anime guys are virtuous and manly

>besides some fetishes with traps, healthy, realistic gender roles everywhere

Why are you listening to (((social-science))), anon?

>>4582

>the most wholesome of all entertainment media

Anime is Satanic and this thread is just proof. Look how the faggots in this thread worship images of women like a Golden Calf and promote the watching of shows that are absolutely filled with sexualization, fetishes, nihilism and materialism.

>>4578

You're conflating science and Big Science. Anime is confirmed gay methodologically.

>>4512

20th century boys (only manga) has a great cristian scene that made me cry

>>4608

That's not the only evidence, but debating with a liar like you is fruitless

Anime turns my brain to mush, i don't like that.

>Thou shalt not watch drawn girls do cute things -Glorborfel 17:34

Oh wait, that’s not a real bible verse. Phew, guess were in the clear lads.

Also take your meds you schizoposter.

>>4632

Learn the difference between necessary and sufficient before trying to think further

>>4625

People should be willing to watch content that is a little bit more challenging. For example, the main theme in Legend of the Galactic Heroes, which was mentioned earlier in this thread, is examining political systems and their respective strengths and weaknesses. The central conflict is between democracy and autocracy. This gets a nuanced treatment of the sort that's just plain beyond American storytelling.

In general the West seems to like to tie up all stories neatly with a little bow on top. Japan is willing to be more open and invite thinking from the viewer about the ending.

>>4530

He literally gets crucified, comes back to life, and it is revealed that his power derives from his passive suffering for the world.

I remember when we used to laugh at the posts on christian anime fans forums. In a moment like this when you see this thread, you reflect on how much imageboards changed

>>4674

Dude, this is questionably pin-up-esque. It may be a stumbling block for some.

>>4674

What are the chances that that picture was drawn by a tranny? About 1 in 1? The artist clearly doesn't have a good grasp of biological female anatomy despite his attempts at SJW body diversity in the name of "realism".

The popular CalArts style in the West is so horrible. The tumblr SJWs are opposed to beauty. Yet another reason why anime is superior.

>>4674

>Literal satanic imagery stays up

>D tier tumbler art is too much though

Good to know where the priorities of this board lie

>>4704

This is a SFW board. Though, I doubt that picture will tempt anyone to sexual sin. The SJW style of drawing is deliberately ugly and unappealing, which they also use to hide lack of technical skill, because drawing well is hard.

Anime is evil

>>4704

It's softcore porn, regardless of how effective it is as a stimulant.

Please also note that the post remains and the poster remains unbanned. This is clearly not censorship.

"Satanic imagery" doesn't have any real power, but porn does. Edgy pics aren't against the rules.

>>4718

Prove me wrong theologically

>>4674

>>4704

Even if you're just trying to incite controversy, I take the censorship issue seriously.

In my judgment, that is pornographic. It's an array of semi nude (western?) anime girls. It's also gross to look at.

If you have insight on how to better define pornography in this context I'll be happy to hear it. As it stands your ability to post is unaltered, even off topic.

>anime on a christian board

>>4723

Based

>>4725

Also based. Sage for this reason.

>>4728

Not an argument.

Tell me why the first two commandments disagree with what I said, don't just vaguely appeal to them and belittle me.

An unexpected pornographic image tempts one to sin. An image of a pagan ritual doesn't do anything, I'm not participating in idolatry.

>>4728

This is superstition, and that's the only "power" symbols have

I'm not sure I'd even want that considering how bad season 2 was. It's a shame because season 1 was pretty good.

>>4773

I hated the new girls and I hated how they reduced Rin's character to just wanting to fuck Ko.

>>4784

Who's this pure maiden?

>>4530

By far the anime has a ton of honest values for young men and self sacrifice. Clip related was inspired by the stations of the cross where Shu endures punishment to save innocent lives.

>homoerotic back rubs in one chapter

Hyperbole. It was a simple backrub.

>>6125

If you are interested in magical girls with the Christian theme of self-sacrifice, the final episode of Madoka was delayed to Good Friday because of earthquakes in a moment of divine providence.

>>6551

Mami's theme was cool, though. I'm not gonna argue the fact that the anime is overrated, but it's not that bad. Heck, I'd say it's decent enough. Are there better options? Sure, but that on itself doesn't make it bad. The twists near the end are surprising enough to leave most watchers pleasantly surprised, which may be the reason why so many people have fond memories of it.

>>6552

I personally (same anon, different computer) am tired of the grimdark trend and the deconstructions. I suppose Madoka isn't that bad because I managed to finish it, but it's the kind of anime that really doesn't bear thinking about it after the fact, such as the role of the magical girls in the world and the related physics.

Now that I think about it, one way to make the plot make sense when taken as a whole is to take the story as Christian so that QB is really the Devil and most of the surprise revelations are blatant lies that the show never bothers to correct. The suffering of the main characters is because of QB's subtle and complicated off-screen manipulations and illusions. The ending is 100% an illusion from QB that the show also never bothers to show as an illusion. Madoka sold her soul for nothing real and for no good reason, which QB will probably tell her some time after the ending credits of the final episode. That's still not good from a Christian perspective.

For a good magical girl series aimed at adults I recommend Nanoha (first two seasons/movies only). However there is nothing especially Christian about Nanoha except general themes like hope and redemption. Nanoha is a very idealistic show. Now that I think about it, Nanoha is pretty much the polar opposite of Madoka. Even the fight scenes in Nanoha are vastly superior.

Nanoha is really science fiction with sufficiently advanced technology, by the way, so there are no witchcraft themes that people may wish to avoid. So I suppose this post came out as surprisingly close to a Christian anime recommendation for Nanoha.

Opinions on anime with demons and satanic stuff in them?

>>4514

The empire is literally Norse Pagan

>>6586

Are the demons and satanic stuff demonized and portrayed as evil villains that are fought against, or are they explicitly or implicitly glorified?

Is it tastefully done, or is there clearly an exploitation/gore/shock/grimdark element at play?

Hey guys, i would love to hear your opinions on my my thread on /christian/ ( i know most people hate there, but the thread is fine as it is, and it's also old ): https://8ch.net/christian/res/774324.html#774324

Basically i'm creating a manga on the gospel of Luke. I'm in page 15 or so, struggling a bit as it's my first work but i'm sure i'll be able to do it. Any suggestions or feedback would be great.

>>6624

Sounds cool

Just remake your thread here

>>6625

if more people show interest i could remake the thread again

>>6624

The whole reason we have an anime thread here is because those Catho-mafia mods there hate anime. Your thread was deleted or anchored or something because I can't see the images now.

>>6696

well i guess i should create a new thread then

>>6711

>You shouldn't be masturbating already

Slow down, nobody was talking about it until you mentioned it. Sounds like projection.

>>6720

Yeah i totally jumped to conclusions there, however the reason i mentioned that was because it's weeb culture to waifu/lewd characters, and if said character happens to be based off an actual demon it can spiritually altering.

>>6720

Also i didn't realize how insulting i was in my original post when i said that, sorry to the poster, i just wanted to warn against feeding lust to spiritual entities.

>>6726

It's all good, just calm down next time before you post in haste.

>>4587

This. Soccer mums were right.

Hentai is pure evil. Lust and rape masked by cute cartoons and "innocence". It's amazing how tempting it is to look at, and destructive it can be to the mind.

>>7508

How to stop looking at hentai?

>>7527

tough answer. Pray about it, and consider the harm you're doing to yourself. I'm almost a year porn-free and it's tempting every day; but at the same time you will begin to detest it when you've cleared it from your habits.

>>7504

All the symbols in the baphomet (goat, transexual, as above so below, star) has it's ties to satanism and satanic themes. This is like that one poster who thinks pentagrams are Christian because of some obscure christian poet used them.

>>7545

Pentagram originates with Pythagoreans and there's nothing satanic about it. This meme is shit.

As for baphomet, it is outright degenerate of name Mahomet, aka Muhammad. When Templars were accused of being worshiping baphomet, it didn't meant that they were Satanists, but that they were cryptomohammedans, converted to pisslam during crusades.

>>7550

Okay, but just because something was originally not satanic doesn't mean it can't become satanic now. For example the peace sigh being used for initiation, or St.Peter's cross becoming a common sign used in satanic churches.

>>7563

Rainbow being used by faggots doesnt make ranbow a pederast. Same with pentagram, revert cross (engraved on popes throne, fyi) and so on.

You are giving too much credit to bunch of teenage retards with daddy issues.

>>7527

Get yourself an accountability partner and use some accountability software. Work wonders for me.

>>7563

>St.Peter's cross becoming a common sign used in satanic churches.

While symbols like these are not the main thing we are to be concerned about, like hell I'm letting those devil-dogs take St. Peter's cross.

>>7565

>>7570

I think the argument should be that the symbols might not take on an inherently wicked meaning, but you should beware that they're generally associated with wickedness and avoid them for yourself.

>>7570

>Get yourself an accountability partner and use some accountability software.

I think it would go over especially poorly if they knew I specifically fap to lolicon

>>7586

>I think it would go over especially poorly if they knew I specifically fap to lolicon

Obviously, you only get with a person or two you really, really trust. Yeah, loli is pretty bad, especially if it's illegal in your state, but a good pastor or counselor won't throw you to the dogs as you try to mortify your sin.

>>7595

Jojo's Bizarre Adventure right now, just started season 2. It's not a totally Christian anime, but there is a little bit of Christian symbolism and themes that shine through at key moments.

>>4617

Composition fallacy

>>8515

>muh fallacies

Say whatever you want, but that verse also reveals that art of all kinds and things like photography are prohibited. Anime is a perverse imitation of God’s creation and should be avoided like the plague, if not for its anti-Christian messages and sexual deviance that it promotes.

>Thou shalt not make unto thee […] any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth

A photo is a likness. Drawings are likenesses.

>>8517

I disagree with you. The instruction is confined to a prohibition of crafting images for use in idolatry.

See here in the full context as stated in Deuteronomy:

¶‘You shall have no other gods fnbefore Me.

8¶‘You shall not make for yourself fnan idol, or any likeness of what is in heaven above fnor on the earth beneath fnor in the water under the earth.

9‘You shall not worship them or serve them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, and on the third and the fourth generations of those who hate Me,

As a proof, I submit the example of the ark of the covenant. God instructed that it be crafted with two images of cherubim (Exodus 25:22). Isn't this incompatible with your view?

Also, where do you draw the line?

Look: an image

:^)

I made that smiley face to represent Jesus who is my God. He smiles sometimes.

Have I broken the second commandment?

What about this time

;^)

That one isn't anyone in particular, it's just a winking face.

>>8517

Also

>>Muh fallacies

Is that supposed to be a response?

>>8521

>Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image,

This part refers to idolatry

>or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth

This is a more general statement which follows that prohibits the things in question.

<I submit the example of the ark of the covenant. God instructed that it be crafted with two images of cherubim

God Himself ordered the creation of the Ark.

<Have I broken the second commandment?

Yes. You made it “unto thee”, it is an imitation (a likeness) of God’s creation, even in a highly abstract sense.

>>8522

Many anime idolators build shrines for these characters in their basements or bedrooms and fill them with plastic figurines of sexualized women. Perhaps not all engage in this idalatrous behavior, but a sizeable contingent does. If we look at the comments when pictures such as these are posted we see general support for this idolatry under the guise of humor.

>>8523

>Perhaps not all engage in this idalatrous behavior, but a sizeable contingent does.

Conjecture

Here's what you should say,

<"There is idolatry among anime viewers, and it is concerning"

Here's what you are saying (by implication)

<"If you watch anime, you are engaging in this idolatry as pictured"

>This is a more general statement which follows that prohibits the things in question.

It is not a discrete statement, it's contained in the instruction against idolatry. I've given you proof for my position based on God's action elsewhere in the Bible:

>God Himself ordered the creation of the Ark

Are you saying it violates His commandment? He just forgot about the second commandment in your view?

>Yes. You made it “unto thee”, it is an imitation (a likeness) of God’s creation, even in a highly abstract sense.

You are even beyond muslims in this heresy

:•O

I'm going to continue to post emoticons. Are you morally obligated to avert your eyes? It's morally equivalent to watching anime according to what you're saying. (°=°)

>>8086

>>8087

It's a big script.

>>8476

Oh look, someone who doesn't do his homework and properly exegete Scripture or explain what idolatry is.

>>8517

>A photo is a likeness. Drawings are likenesses.

Like the oxen or cherubim made for the tabernacle and ark of the covenant? God can break His own commandments?

>>8523

>God Himself ordered the creation of the Ark.

He also ordered the creation of something that was later worshiped (Numbers 21:6-9, 2 Kings 18:4). Does this make God an idolator? http://triablogue.blogspot.com/p/triablogue-master-index.html Read the articles under the "Art and the Bible" section, which are good arguments about the Second Commandment.

>>8523

>Many anime idolators build shrines

And idolators of all kinds do many things for their idols, but that says nothing about the medium of idolatry or object of worship. People idolize food, but food is good if received with thanksgiving. People idolize sex, but sex within marriage is to be pure and desired. People idolize the arts, but the first person to explicitly receive the Holy Spirit was an artisan (Ex. 31:3).

> it is an imitation (a likeness) of God’s creation

Go back to school and learn some Hebrew. Heck, learn some basic reading comprehension, because the context isn't about making mere images. It's the false worship of that which isn't God or worship God in ways He has not proscribed. In Ezekiel, God admonishes the elders of Israel to remove the idols of the heart (Ez. 13:3-4). Why does God accuse them of sin when they made no physical image? Is the mere use of our imagination idolatry then? God help us for using what He Himself gave!

>but a sizeable contingent does

GASP!

All human beings are idolators at heart and need God's grace to free them? Really? But what does that say about the medium of Japanese-made animation?

hey, it's me the drawfag again. I'm looking forward to make art of Christina, high quality stuff but i would like some suggestions. Would it be better to make something more generic and beautiful like a wallpaper or something memey like "dont watch porn" or wathever. Anybody got suggestions?

>>8837

its really christ-chan, but i dont really like to call her this name because "chan" is an honorific so that would be calling her Christ lmao. But yeah thanks for the suggestion, i think i will think something up

>>8874

I wouldn't bother checking it out. The dub in particular is infamous for injecting tons of South Park-esque toilet humor into the script (or bolstering such humor that was already there.)

the hands are really small, but you could chalk that up to style.

in 95% of portrayals of her, she has some hair on top of her head sticking up.

her clothing is usually more teal (the color your picked looks great though.)

she's missing her gold hairpin, but you'll probably add that later.

the neck/shoulder/head placement is kind of off, if you flip the image horizontally you'll immediately be able to tell what i'm talking about (it's good practice to do this several times as you're drawing, it sort of refreshes your brain.)

it's looking nice.

>>8675

What a damn shame! I can't say RIP because, for all I know, the whole staff is entirely humanistic/Buddhist. Maybe a few found Christ hopefully before this, but no one knows now but God. Japan needs Christ desperately.

By the way, the man who committed the arson-murders idolized trains. It shows you that that pics and animation of cute girls isn't the problem, but the heart that idolizes anything and everything but God. Again, Japan desperately needs Christ.

>>8927

That's super kawaii anon!

>>8929

thanks for the advice anon, i'll definitevely keep that in mind.

>>8930

thanks anon, and i agree with you completely. Every nation needs Christ, but Japan is a special place for me because it has the highest martyr count in the church ( i'm catholic ). This is why i hope the manga i'm making moves some hearts, and that's why it needs to be spot on quality.

>>8839

This is a clip from Hataraku Saibou, which means cells at work. It's an educational anime about cute, anthropomorphised cells doing cute work. If there weren't so many platelet lolis in it, it'd show up in classrooms.

Great stuff, anon. I like the small anime touches, like the flustered face in the speech-bubble and the alertness/interest marks. Good work with the text: encouraging, christian and cute. The nose is a bit off-center, I think.

that's literally just a sun. The sun can be used as various symbolisms, including christian ones.

>>9078

>putting masonic symbolism in a highschool cartoon aired at late night watched mostly by pagan/apathetic loosers aka otaku (the japs ones, not the western weebs)

As a conspiracy it's a retarded and ineffective plan, anime having the social stigma it has had until recently (the "cool japan" image the government wants to promote). Don't be a schizo

>>9095

>As a conspiracy it's a retarded and ineffective plan

It's not so much a plan as a condition. When they control things they love to litter it with their symbols as well as their themes, not too hard to figure out and being willfully blind to it only damages yourself.

Peter 5:8

Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour

Oh no, I've quoted the bible to a papist, now I've done it.

>>9078

The sun is used symbolically in many different contexts, the overwhelming majority of which have nothing to do with masonry. The floor isn't the same as the masonic black and white checkerboard pattern, which is extremely distinctive everywhere it's used, it's not meant to be subtle or hidden.

>>9201

>That's why it's important to take into account where the symbolism is coming from, these symbols are regional, and they're not coming from Christians.

Yes, but they're not coming from masons either. If you said lots of anime has Shinto imagery in it I don't think anyone here would disagree. Masonry is not indigenous to Japan, and it shouldn't be your first assumption when interpreting symbolism in anime.

>>9201

>Super Mario Sunshine

The heck are you on anon? That's not a location anywhere in that game

>b-b-but it was in beta

Doesn't count. Besides, In a game literally called Sunshine with a tropical paradise setting, what else are they going to put in there?

>>9204

>Unironically thinking First Peter (you gotta differentiate between the two) supports obsessing over supposed symbols used by a foolish, larping group that tries to take every symbol under the sun and call it their own

The devil has more important things to do then making sure men put some secret meaning in some arrangement of pixels anyways.

>Oh no, I've quoted the bible to a papist, now I've done it.

How about this for Scripture:

"Devise a plan, but it will be thwarted; State a proposal, but it will not stand, For God is with us."

For thus the LORD spoke to me with mighty power and instructed me not to walk in the way of this people, saying,

You are not to say, 'It is a conspiracy!' In regard to all that this people call a conspiracy, And you are not to fear what they fear or be in dread of it.

It is the LORD of hosts whom you should regard as holy. And He shall be your fear, And He shall be your dread." (Isa. 8:10-13 NASB)

And…

"To the pure, all things are pure, but to the defiled and unbelieving, nothing is pure; but both their minds and their consciences are defiled" (Titus 1:15 ESV)

>>9249

I've seen those pics before. Some of that info is legit, but a lot of it is reaaaaaaaally reaching. I.e. "Anything that has even the slightest hint of a triangle, pyramid, black box, eyeball, or checkerboard pattern is Illuminati confirmed!"

>>9269

>>9249

The other problem is that there's not even an attempt to put things into context. Like, I see a lot of Mario images in there. Instead of just slapping them all into the same image with everything else, why not actually go through the games, figure out how all the symbolism is structured in just those games, and then present an explanation of that in one focused image? Do one thing at a time, instead of trying to analyze all media at once from screencaps you saw on the internet.

>>9249

>I never got that far int SMS

Then don't post things you don't have a clear idea about. You don't have to play the game, since you have an abundance of resources on the internet like through speedruns and wikis. The animus is on you to do your research and not bear false witness to you neighbor.

>it's still odd that they would have it in the beta

No, no it's not. The symbolism doesn't count if they don't intend to communicate these supposed masonic symbols to the general public; which, if they did indeed made it public, you still must prove to be mainly masonic in context rather than merely setting a tropical theme.

>from the same global system.

People don't take from the "global" first. They always take from the local first and any universal that's from their worldview. You need to prove that Masonry is a part of Japanese culture (good luck!that's impossible) or a part of the worldview of the Nintendo Japanese staff (it's not).

>>9301

I'd add that the poster also needs to check the country of origin if he wants to state something about Japan and Masonry. From those that I can identify, Cuphead is an American indie game and Shantae is from Argentina. Cuphead also makes the symbolism very visible because the audience is supposed to notice and be amused, but a lot of those other screenshots are indistinguishable from generic non-symbolism.

>And you cannot show any evidence that anyone involved in the creation of anime is a member of one.

you're right, i don't.

>but I've never heard of one of them being involved in the anime industry.

It's uncommon to hear about satanists in big business, but their logos and architecture says otherwise.

>That freemasons occupy many influential positions in Hollywood is easy to show, but you've yet to show me that they occupy influential positions in the anime industry.

You're right, i haven't. My main point is both use the same symbolism.

>Is any pattern at all of two alternating tiles (whether the difference between the two is orientation, color, pattern, whatever) masonic?

No, clearly not every thing is influenced by freemasons or the elite.

>However, when you tried to convince us anime was masonic propaganda

All media is propaganda regardless if it's truthful or deceptive.

>you couldn't even show us this, because you didn't know it existed–all you could show us is a classroom with identical wood tiles oriented at right angles to each other and a decorative sun.

Both of us agree on the symbolism in anime, the problem with talking about this is most don't know the symbolism and/or just write it off as just a checkered floor, just a phoenix, just a phallic pillar, just a cube, just the planet Saturn (even though Saturn isn't particularly masonic, but it's all esoteric). You definitely have a point, but i don't know how to show something designed to be ignored. I can't even be helpful, when the context requires more pursuing of symbolic context. I want to show people the evil hidden in the world that i've found, but just look blind to them.

>>9279

I see what you're saying, my point with the picture was to show how much the patterns repeat. Context comes later when you know the checkered floor is a masonic lodge floor. I agree with you.

>>9301

>The animus is on you to do your research and not bear false witness to you neighbor.

I agree.

>You need to prove that Masonry is a part of Japanese culture (good luck!that's impossible) or a part of the worldview of the Nintendo Japanese staff (it's not).

Nintendo has used masonic symbolism for years, regardless who made it. It's like those employees who work at McDonald, and don't know the symbolism of the restaurant, it's possible that someone higher up put them there for some meaning, like the architecture of Israel's supreme court. I agree with you though, that i should have more concert evidence than just symbolism.

>Both of us agree on the symbolism in anime

No, we don't. I may not have made this clear, but I think the masonic symbolism in that Symphogear G webm is being used in an anti-masonic context. If you're aware enough to recognize it, you're supposed to realize that it's sinister and attribute that to the characters in-universe (for further evidence, the primary villain that season was named John Wayne Vercingetorix, the real John Wayne was a mason.) Any time I've seen something that looks like masonic symbolism in anime, it's either been something like that or something that was copied without understanding its significance and so includes elements that don't make sense, or is missing elements that you would expect to be there.

I think the final death toll was 34. Hope the studio recovers, at least. I've enjoyed many of their shows over the years.

I doubt anyone on /christianity/ is an animefag who idolatrizes characters like in your pic

You should watch actual good anime instead of an overhyped-in-advance bad show. I haven't seen Darling in the Franxx myself, but apparently a lot of people did and were severely disappointed.

Try a classic like Legend of the Galactic Heroes instead even if it's older and the graphics aren't as flashy.

The amount of Jewish pandering in this show is way too high. Every other episode a rabbi turns up to remind everyone that Christians and Jews are the greatest of allies and basically believe the same things except with a few small distinctions.

Saw that they've gotten into some legal trouble, presumably due to copyright violations. The site's down for me too.

Or at least this is what Jews say to distract people from the real danger: their own porn industry.

Another example of Jews redirecting the blame. How come the LGBT epidemic is not a thing in Japan? And insofar as it can be found there, why is it clearly coming from America, not from anime? Hmm?

>And how has Christianity worked out for the West?

Pretty dang well all things considered, but what makes you think the West right now is in any way identifiably Christian? I did say Japan desperately needs Christ, but so do we. The only difference between the West and Japan is that there are significant remnants of faithful Christianity in the West, while Christianity is a sickly bud in Japan.

>The priests and the Jews

The Lord will deal with them all in due time; but unless you yourself repent and believe in Jesus Christ, you till will perish with them and like them.

>>12356

>but what makes you think the West right now is in any way identifiably Christian?

Why is it not Christian? This happened on your watch. The West was Christian, with Christians in charge. Clearly it's not working.

>The Lord will deal with them all in due time

Too late.

>unless you yourself repent and believe in Jesus Christ, you till will perish with them and like them

Do you think threatening people with violence is a good basis for a religion?

>>12360

That's not a threat, it's a warning about judgment

>>12360

>Why is it not Christian? This happened on your watch. The West was Christian, with Christians in charge. Clearly it's not working.

Not an argument

<Why is Rhodesia not white? This happened on your watch. Rhodesia was white, with whites in charge. Clearly white rule doesn't work.

>>12361

If you don't give me your money, I will stab you. No no, that's not a threat, that's just a WARNING. Big difference!

(f— off.)

>Not an argument

Not an argument that the West down the s—ter while Christians were in charge? If Christians can't be held responsible for their failures then why should they be credited for their successes?

>Why is Rhodesia not white? This happened on your watch. Rhodesia was white, with whites in charge. Clearly white rule doesn't work.

The West is made up of many, many countries. The track record is terrible. And this failed system should be forced onto Japan because reasons?

>>12365

>The poster said that unbelief results in judgment. The poster isn't threatening you with perishment.

If you don't give me your car keys I will shoot you in the head. No, I'm not threatening you, I'm just informing you of the consequences of your choices.

>Increasing western degeneracy is because of the rising abandonment of Christianity and replacement with alien spirituality and secular humanism

Which happened on your watch, when you controlled society. If you won't take responsibility for your failures you are not allowed to take credit for your successes or try to tell other cultures what to do.

>Nobody is advocating forcing anything on anyone

The messaging here is that Japan has to be converted into Christianity.

>Stop posting so hysterically. Are you a woman? Control your emotions if you want dialogue.

This is some of the most blatant projection I've seen today. Take your own advice.

>>12360

>Do you think threatening people with violence is a good basis for a religion?

I do not know you personally. All I know is what you have posted so far, and what you have posted insinuates a great deal that you don't know Christ, otherwise you would have been sympathetic and not show hostility to the Christian religion. As your neighbor, even if we are anonymous and online, I am still obligated by the Word to warn you about Hell and the coming wrath of God towards sinners and to show you how to get saved from that: by turning from a life of sin and embracing Christ as your Lord and Savior. If I really wanted to do you harm, I wouldn't have said a word about the Gospel.

If you go to a online Bible and read, and I encourage you to do, Luke 13:5, you will see that I was merely quoting the Lord's formula and warning you that even if your enemies fall to disaster, you will too if you don't turn to Christ.

May the Lord save you!

>>12375

>otherwise you would have been sympathetic and not show hostility to the Christian religion

Christians are not to be held accountable for any of their mistakes, and anyone who doesn't join the gang gets threatened with violence. Very weird that this failed to elicit sympathy. What went wrong?

What's going on with this board?

anime is from the devil.
