There's really no point if every thread immediately gets raided and/or nuked.

Reason religion threads are getting nuked

Is because yesterday a Catholic poster got so mad about losing an argument on the papacy and its historical validity with a Calvinist that the Catholic doxxed that poster and posted a picture of his home in the thread.

Mods have had enough of Catholic larpers. They brought this on themselves.

This is not a Catholic thread. Apparently one Orthodox thread is too annoying for the jannies but endless /pol/ and off-topic pornography are not.

[Anonymous No.19501209]

>>19501200
Did you read what I said? The catholics were so toxic that the mods are done with religion threads in general.

>Catholics ruining everything
Bros... I just want a comfy discussion thread about literature and related topics, yet if I make it on /his/ it gets shit up by low IQ retards, and if I make it on /lit/ the retarded jannies nuke it because they have a stick in their ass

Lel, no way. I’ll have to dig through the archives for that. Tradcaths were a mistake

[Anonymous No.19501337]

>>19501311
Unless you're a Slav or Greek, Orthodoxy is 10x more larpy than even the worst tradcath is.

[Anonymous No.19501376]

This is a dumb idea. If one truly believes that Orthodoxy is the Church founded by Jesus Christ and His apostles, it doesn’t matter where it was predominantly centered until recently. If it’s true, it’s true. I’m a baptized Orthodox convert and I never adopted any sort of trad LARP or pretended be a Slav. Judging by the fact that the Church I go to is English speaking, has lots of well-adjusted people and inquirers there, most of these criticisms don’t stick.

Puritan general or something yesterday

[Anonymous No.19501476]

>>19501438
Yes it was Puritan Christian Literature General and it was a great thread and I'm sad to see it go. I loved watching the Catholics get demolished repeatedly. Shame about the doxxing thing, I guess having the papacy systematically dismantled as a farce did a number on their mental health.

If LARPing is just defined by doing something that the majority of people don't do, then practically everyone who does anything with some critical spirit is a LARPer.

I thought these threads were banned? The Catholic and Islam literature threads are banned, at least... Are the jannies just Orthodolarpers?

Maybe it's God's will because He hates your paganistic idolatry.

[Anonymous No.19501926]

Has anyone read this?

[Anonymous No.19501939]

>>19501765
that's bullocks. these are valid, much moreso than 8/10 of threads in catalog. before banning people who actually read books, ban the tourists and frogposters.

i want to get a collection together of christian novels. there actually are surviving christian publishing houses but most of what they put out looks like low quality schlock. meanwhile yesteryear's christian literature was the best of all. where are the good modern writers?

[Anonymous No.19502109]

I think I'll take a long break at least for the rest of the Christmas period. Wish everyone the best on his respective path.
