"Christmas" is a pagan holiday though. It just got a christian flair because people thought it was a hassle to change the celebration to the end of summer, which was the time our Lord and Savior was born.

And that is why it is perfectly fine for Touhous to celebrate christmas.

I had a great picture last year. It was Sanae or something and "XMAS" with one of these symbols.

I want it again.

>>11657926
Sounding a little euphoric there captain

>>11657921
>foreign

Why do the Japanese use that word so much?

I never say "foreign actor Heath Ledger" or "foreign footballer Fernando Torres".

I know words can be more commonplace and less pejorative in other languages, but do they really have this much of an us-versus-them mentality? "It's not Japanese, therefore we need to throw 'foreign' in there"?

>>11657955
>but do they really have this much of an us-versus-them mentality?

They really do.

>>11657941
Do I? Not my intention.

Still, the winter solstice celebration was adapted by christianity. Not a bad thing, but it certainly has very little grounds on dogma. The birth of Christ, in theory, is celebrated every time someone performs the communion, or frankly, anything that resembles the earliest christian ritual, the Agape.

>>11657955
Where I live we use that word all the time. Especially when a crime is committed and the criminal is a foreigner.

Frankly, I would like to see a fully fleshed out doujin with this setting.

which 2hu would you cut out gingerbread men with

>>11658025
Gingerbread men aren't a Christmas thing.

>>11658034
They definitely are

>>11657955
>but do they really have this much of an us-versus-them mentality?

Yeah pretty much.

>>11658040
They so aren't.

I can still spread cheer though!

Horseshit.

>>11657955
I don't say foreign actor Christian Bale because I didn't know he wasn't American.

>>11658074

That's a very cute image and I hope you keep posting cute images.

Which touhou household would have the best Christmas party?

I don't know from where you hail, but around here Christmas has pretty much nothing to do with religion. Sure, a few folks might have some kind of ceremony but for most its just an excuse to party and give/receive gifts.

>>11658174
Chireiden! Okuu's nigh unlimited supply of power means lots of pretty lights.

>>11658179
Christmas kinda died here. This, or I'm getting old.

>>11657941
I didn't know having knowledge that a Christian holiday is actually heathen pagan worship was euphoric.
Would Moses have worn a fedora?

SO CUTE

>>11658925
i am jealous of whoever has that pic

>>11658153
I see what you did there

>>11658927
FUND IT

>you will never celebrate yule in gensokyo with your favorite 2hus

>>11657921
nonono my friend, that's reverse-christmas

>>11657941
A euphoric gentleman wouldn't say Lord and Savior like that, you big stupid.

I celebrate xmas

I misread that as "Touhous are pregnant" and it reminds me of my general fetish of knocking up lots of girls.

I wonder if there's a doujin of one man's journey to impregnate all of Gensokyo.

>>11659313
I, too, wish to impregnate the touhous.

>>11659384
I would give them birth control and then make them sign a contract that they have to keep trying to conceive with me until we succeed.

>>11659306
Um, it's spelled CHRISTmas for a reason bucko. You know Christ? Our Lord and Savior?

>>11659313
Not that I know, but there's that one where futa Byakuren goes on a quest to rape every single girl in Gensokyo to quell her repressed thousand year old sexual urges.

>>11659313
>my general fetish of knocking up lots of girls
That's not a fetish anon. It is part of our genetic code. It is in our very nature to instinctively mate with several females and to pass on our genes.

Likewise it is in the female genetic code to get as many suitable partners to mate with them and to bare the strongest and most capable males genes.

>>11657941
4chan only turned on atheism because Reddit likes it. Prove me wrong.

>>11659552
you shitting me? 4chan has had religious debates long before knock-off sites were even and idea

>>11659552
Atheists have always been irritating and I'm an atheist.

>>11659442

I find the idea of Byakuren taking out a thousand years' worth of repressed sexual urges out on someone amazingly hot, but I don't like futa

Do you know of a doujin that might sate this desire of mine, /jp/?

>>11659443
who?

>>11657955
The word "foreign" is not pejorative, globalist scum.

>>11658174
I bet Christmas at the SDM is pretty ballin'.

>>11657984
wasn't it 4 breads?? that dude's shirt has 5 breads

>>11659578
Itou Yuuji and his gang recently released a dozens of pages long compilation doujin where diverse Touhous get pregnant/raped. Youmight want to look for it on sad panda.

>>11658074
That's super cute

>>11659723
>raped

T-thanks anyway..

>>11659723
>Itou Yuuji ... rape
Damn, his stories are usually so cute.

Actually, Christmas IS a pagan holiday

Suika drinks the entire sake supply of the local brewery. As in entire vats of the stuff. Faceless hardworking men demand payment.

Christmas is a pagan holiday, after the pagans converted to Christianity they kept many pagan holidays and traditions with them, modern Christmas is a coca cola thing.

>>11659715
John 6:9 “Here is a boy with five small barley loaves and two small fish, but how far will they go among so many?”

I'm atheist either but find Christmas very joyful.

>>11660110
What? All we did was comment on it. I obsessively open all spoilered images. I didn't report nuthin'.

>>11660110
Keep whining you little bitch.
I won't give you the answers to today's math test.

Jesus was real.

>>11660209
Even the jews and muslims will tell you that. What is in question is his divinity.

>>11660213
>What is in question is his divinity.

Ever try using this thing called common sense?

>>11660567
I am using common sense. However, I need proof of the existence of the lack of existence of YHWH before I can make an assumption, or if such a thing like eternity/infinite is real or not. Then again, if infinity does not exist, I will regard such things like evolution as nonsense as well.

Should the jews get exterminated (Seeing how YHWH protects them), I will simply regard the whole deal as false and move on. The burning hatred against them and uneplainable luck/disgraces makes me question if there is not something else out there.

>>11659586
nationalism is a mental disorder.

>>11660880
so is autism but that doesn't seem to stop you

>>11660640
Your post confuses me, but I'll try to shed some light where I can.
Proof of the existence of the lack of existence is a weird sentence, so I'm going to assume you meant proof of the existence OR lack of existence. If God is real, and his New Testament through Christ is true, you'll find neither. Nothing will disprove God's existence, as the proof is in his works (Matthew something, not looking it up). Nothing will prove God's existence either, as righteousness is of faith, and not proof (Hebrews 11 and Romans 3-4). There is strong evidence supporting it, but it's all based on prophesy, which is easy to blow off as just coincidences if you truly don't wish to believe. There's no maybe with faith: you have it or you don't.
Speaking of prophesy, there is one that you already know about, and indeed even mentioned. The Jewish people (Israel) was prophesied ~2500 years ago that they would be dispersed (Deuteronomy 28:64-68), despised, and regathered. The dispersion was during their slow exile after the Roman destruction of the temple in 70AD. It took 200 years, but it happened.
Antisemitism is a now brainer, but the prophesy is in Leviticus 26, Deuteronomy 28 again, and a pretty specific one in Isaiah 3:24, which reads "Instead of fragrance there will be a stench; instead of a sash, a rope; instead of well-dressed hair, baldness; instead of fine clothing, sackcloth; instead of beauty, branding."
Then, in 1948, for the first time in almost 2000 years, the Jewish people returned to Israel and reclaimed it for themselves. (Ezekiel 37)

>>11658013
>A doujin where Christianity as a religion slowly dies off and Jesus appears in Gensokyo
I want this. I want to see this.

>>11665466
If you can't use the predictions ahead of time then they simply should be considered coincidences. You can't just look at something that happened at some vague time period sort of similarly to what you think the prophecy says and say that the prophecy was fulfilled, after the fact.

>>11660640
>if infinity does not exist, I will regard such things like evolution as nonsense

PARSEE IS UBER FUCKING CRAZY AS FUCK!
HOLY SHIT SHE IS SO CRAZY!!!

CRAZY PARSEE WWWW

Is this the Parsee thread?

>>11666457
yes!

>>11657926
You are the stupidest person on the internet.

>>11666882
no u

>>11666882
But what he said is actually true, The church realized that it would be a lot easier to convert people if you could promise them all the benefits of their old religion, as well as the threat of not following yours.

Also, by simply adopting pagan holidays, it makes converting a much easier process

Parsee thread!

>>11666926
What is funny is that Christianity spread like wildfire at its beginning by being what they preached. Their "Agapes" brought rich and poor to see each other eye to eye. It had a very strong allure.

>>11666139
Monkeys and typewriters imply that we have an unlimited amount of time. And it would take long after the heat death of the Universe for them to dish out the unabridged works of Shakespeare.

>>11666927
she is crazy!

She likes Christmas and giving gifts after all...

>>11667021
because she is super crazy

>>11660055
Antipiracy advocates are Jews, yes. What a great observation.

>>11666139
I can use the predictions ahead of time, and the signs of the end times are already here. I only mentioned those 3 because he mentioned Jews, but there are several, a lot have happened, but some have yet to happen.
