[Bookworm Room] The term "pagan" developed as a way for the West to describe pre-Christian religion. Aside from meaning religions without Christ, "pagan" also described a world without Biblical values. When I think of Biblical values, I think of: a belief in an abstract divinity untethered to nature, monogamy within the context of marriage, two sexes, the end of human sacrifice, and a reliable justice system tempered as appropriate by mercy. Beginning in the 1960s at a covert level, fairly openly in the last 12 years, and with accelerating speed in the last 11 days, the left has used education, entertainment, social media, politics, the courts, and the police state to do away with every one of those Judeo-Christian, Biblically-based rules.

In lieu of an abstract divinity untethered to nature, we have open Gaia-worship. Even the Pope, who is supposed to the keeper of the Christian tradition, has anthropomorphized the Earth, elevating it to a divine state akin to God. In March, of the Wuhan virus, he said "Fires, earthquakes ... nature is throwing a tantrum so that we will take care of her." Breitbart noted that this was not the only time the Pope, inside of talking about "God’s creation," talked about the earth as an entity:

Francis has also tended to personalize nature, suggesting that it "cries out" when it is mistreated.

Situations such as a loss of biodiversity and economic inequality "have caused sister earth, along with all the abandoned of our world, to cry out, pleading that we take another course," he wrote. "Never have we so hurt and mistreated our common home as we have in the last two hundred years."

"Neglecting to monitor the harm done to nature and the environmental impact of our decisions is only the most striking sign of a disregard for the message contained in the structures of nature itself," he said. "When we fail to acknowledge as part of reality the worth of a poor person, a human embryo, a person with disabilities — to offer just a few examples — it becomes difficult to hear the cry of nature itself; everything is connected."

Those statements are pure paganism. Pre-Christian faiths viewed earth in exactly the same light. The movie Frozen II was a textbook for children about earth worship, even providing them with an Aryan earth goddess.

The Biden administration is accelerating this viewpoint with its fanatic emphasis on climate change — aka Gaia worship.

To basilican Jove...

#4 I've always maintained that the Pope is as far from God as one can get without going full Cthulhu. So one can't expect anything from there.

The wavering beliefs of modern 'çhristian' societies, their reluctance to sacrifice some liberties for morals, family discipline and integrity... all this is on the preachers. The denominationals and evangelicals who claimed guardianship of His flocks and later turned out to be no better than politicians and racketeers. They brought ignominy upon the Word of God, and they left it undefended before scoffers, not bothering to demonstrate their faith but instead filling their own coffers, changing basic doctrines for the convenience of high tithing congregants... Gehazis and Judases most of them.

I laud the few men and women who must have stayed true to Christ, treated like fools, their congregations slowly marginalized and mocked by an increasingly liberty crazed society. Shadowed by the Kanye West churches and the Kool Aid drinkers, surely there be some. The world is still spinning.
