Liberals, who are not religious and hate Christianity, have a serious problem with “white” religion, AKA Christianity, and want to destroy it. The Washington Post is actively trying to cancel what they call “Scandinavian Jesus” because obviously anything white is racist. Also, what thew F*ck is Scandinavian Jesus? Car-bombing Muhammed is cool, mostly because he’s not white, but anything white people believe in must go.
The Washington Post has this horrible business model that assumes people are willing to pay for their content. I don’t personally believe that to be true and I certainly would never spend a dime on their shit, but they occasionally publish something that is worth commenting on. Luckily there is this thing called the Internet and we can grab their content without actually having to pay.
Here’s a thing that reinforces the idea that no one should ever pay for their articles:
The White European Jesus Of Western Imagination Is Fiction
Intrigued? Check this out:
The white, European Jesus of Western imagination is a fiction produced by those who could not imagine human perfection in any other form. “Whites simply couldn’t conceive of owing their salvation to a representative of what they considered an inferior race,” Robert P. Jones, chief executive of PRRI and the author of “White Too Long: The Legacy of White Supremacy in American Christianity” emailed me. “And a nonwhite Jesus would render impossible the intimate relationalism necessary for the evangelical paradigm to function: no proper white Christian would let a brown man come into their hearts or submit themselves to be a disciple of a swarthy Semite.”
But it’s not just a “European Jesus” the WaPo is raging against, it’s Swedish Jesus:
The embrace of a Scandinavian Jesus is not just foolish but part of a broader historical amnesia. Jesus not only looked like a Middle Eastern Jew; this identity also made him part of an oppressed, dispossessed group. A sense of Jewish powerlessness was the social context for his ministry, and his teaching reflected it.
As someone who is half-Swedish, the WaPo can f*ck off. As someone who isn’t a liberal idiot, the WaPo can double f*ck off.
Because liberals are never satisfied with their shit, the WaPo kept piling it on:
It is the great temptation of Christians in every time to shape their faith to fit their interests and predispositions rather than reshaping themselves to fit the gospel. This is what happened when Christians justified slavery, blessed the violent reimposition of white rule after the Civil War and sanctified segregation.
Now scandalous injustice has forced the examination of white supremacy in our lives and institutions. The Christianity of Christ has much to offer. Among White evangelicals, it needs better representatives than we have recently seen.
It’s entirely possible that Jesus was white, but even if he was Middle Eastern, who cares? Every culture depicts their gods and prophets to reflect themselves. Asians have an Asians Jesus. African Christians have a black Jesus. South and Central Americans have a Latino Jesus. Indian Buddha looks awfully Asian to most of the people who worship him.
The point of faith is not any kind of physical representation, but rather the message of the religion. It doesn’t matter what color you think Jesus was as long as you follow the teachings of Jesus.
Liberals who write this kind of crap would know this if they weren’t godless heathens who hate everyone who has found peace. If Jesus was blue with pink polkadots, it doesn’t change the strength he instills in his believers.
This WaPo crapfest is extra dumb because Scandinavia was the last place in Europe that Christianity reached. Rather than any kind of thoughtful or well researched piece on religion, this is just another way for the liberal media to attack white people as racist for the crime of being white.
You wanna talk about bullshit religions, look no further than Black Lives Mater, global warming, and the democratic party. They worship false gods who want to undo everything Judeo/Christianity has built.
