as someone who was raised catholic and came from a pretty cool catholic family, like my aunt literally got to hear her words reada loud from an fbi wiretap as a dumbass 13 year old because we had a jesuit priest uncle who did law stuff for 60's/70's radicals, im really fortunate enough to not be familiar with the hate aspect of my families faith

Good question.

Obama took out quite a few but with ISIS' shine fading I doubt many will be off to join them fighting the good fight in the Middle East (contrary to MidEastPol's terrorist sympathiser rhetoric). Depending how far from home whatever the new extremism is, could be more for sure.

I'm looking forward to Trump's inside info on the real hackers who aren't Russian.

I hope the info is printed on the back of Obama's real birth certificate.

protestants immigrants to america were straight up hosed in the head

literally nothing was fun. nothing could be fun. fun was unproductive, and if you weren't working toward a larger harvest and a shinier belt on your stupid hat then it was time given to the devil rather than letting your hands be tools of the lord

even their poetry was hosed. it had to be paeans to the beauty of work and labor and some weird MBA douchebag's idea of how to maximize your time

one of my favorite books that i read was by Increase Matter, and his name sounds like a really dorky porno name for a guy with a big dick, despite the fact that he wore a powdered wig and a buckle hate.

he was the legal genius who spared a lot of lives in the Slayem Witch Trials by having the sense to say, "So, if you were under the influence of the devil, is it fair to say that your testimony is as accurate as if you were witnessing the events drunk off your rear end on cider?" which seems fairly obvious in retrospect, but it was a different time and you needed someone in the fanciest wig money could buy from the Big City of 30,000 people to say it before it mattered

legal genius he was, he wrote an entire book of anecdotes on the devil killing people and driving them to suicide. these were a people who believed that the devil was weak, but he was everywhere and he was always gunning for you. in their cosmic worldview, the devil literally couldnt touch you unless the lord gave satan the OK

so just imagine that. satan was everywhere, he was always after you, and whenever he attacked you it was because the lord said it was cool. why even draw a distinction between god and the devil at that point? just accept your borderline personality god into your life and enjoy the ride.

here is Increase Mather's Cases of Conscience Concerning Evil Spirits

Not gonna bullshit ya. This ain't a fun read, especiallly in the inconvenient format those cheap fucks at the Salem Witch Trial society present these pages in. Butt, if ever for a second, you ever had the thought of, "What did people in the 1630's think a good Goosebumps story would be?"

This is your jam. My personal favorite is when THE DEVIL. LORD SATAN HIMSELF. Presented himself as a ghostly apparition to a guy who killed a priest as the ghostly figure of the priest looking like how he murdered him hovering above his own bed.

It's like, I stabbed you once. Why would I be bothered by this two hours after the fact because you llook like how I stabbed you two hours ago? Protestant gohst stories are lame.

Anyway i was an immense dork and i legitimately had fun researching this poo poo as a dorky englihsh major in college.

it's not like everyone woke up one day and decided that they no longer believed in witches, it takes persistent effort by men such as this in order to inoculate the uninfected (which generally speaking is limited to the very young) from dangerous memes such as superstition and religion

I just want you to know I read him too and like him as well.

But yea protestant colonial stuff is hilarious to look at because it involves being 100% certain Satan was an active force in the world seeking to hurt YOU, yes YOU personally not just the general concept of Christendom because you are just such a good good god boy that your faith must be broken...but also that the mere act of saying 'uuuh I believe in God!!!!" is enough to make Satan flee in terror.

Also if you want a fun read, try to find his "The Dangers of Apostasy" (something like that) book where he posits that basically everything bad will happen to you if you lose your faith, not just spiritually but like, animals will hate you and bears will eat your kids and poo poo.

modern american protestant denominations haven't changed much in this regard. the extremely self-centered nature of this flavor is extremely popular in this country for some reason! Go figure.

he was a cool dude who very clearly was genuinely knowledgeable about the teachings of his faith, and also most likely still believed in the base 'yea there's a God and he controls things and I think it's good to do things that he'd like' concepts even if he thought his peers were being loving insane.

He also very clearly understood that 90% of the 'witch trials' actually had nothing to do with people thinking Literal Satan was ensorcelling their nubile young women, but instead it was a political push done by certain members of the community, but he couldn't just say 'hey mayor shitfuck here is lying to you' because obviously the response to that is 'lol no who are you man', so he framed his arguments by the 'accepted story' basically. Almost everything he did was based around 'so then nothing you say can be believed and if anything this is a sign you as a person aren't trustworthy right?'

a not-insignificant percentage of Americans still believe that witches actually exist, that witchcraft and magic are real. I guess that poo poo just don't show up on cell phone cameras, or maybe there's not a single showoff witch in the entire world. Cuz witches are known for their humility.
