For several weeks, I'd been thinking about making a post about what a horrible group of people USian Christians are. The U.S. was going to be my focus because that's where I've experienced xtians. Letting their own kids die because they prefer "faith healing" to modern medicine and throwing their gay and lesbian adolescents out of the home are some examples of the Chritian love they've shown the world.

Just now, however, I came across this enraging video about Norwegian xtians travelling to Siberia or Northern Russia to visit a people called the Nenets:

They went on a mission that's been popular with xtians and distressingly successful all over the world and throughout history: destroying indigenous cultures. As ridiculous as the idea is, xtians think their religion is somehow better than whatever local religion (or lack of religion) exists in the places they visit, so they've traveled all over the world to supplant, to various extents, the local culture with the culture of xtianity. I guess almost nothing is ridiculous for people who believe in supernatural beings.

If the story told in the video is true, the Nenets accepted their lies and fairy tales with open arms. Horrifying. Opening the door to cultural annihilation. What's really ugly is when xtianity replaces more humane cultural elements with it's authoritarianism. It's like some violent brute senselessly murdering a helpful, considerate, and thoughtful person. Just a blatant and pointless net negative for the universe.

Why human beings seem so attached to myths and lies about the universe is another thing I've never understood about people. It's as if the reality that greets our senses isn't enough for them, so they decide to add some shit onto it or adopt the add-ons that other people have created. But it's all obviously made up by human beings. There are like a dozen different sects of xtianity. Is the xtian god telling each something different? No, it's just different groups of people doing whatever they want and calling it the same thing, like it's always been. One xtian says homosexuality is a sin; another says god doesn't create mistakes or that xtians shouldn't judge. Each calls the other a fake xtian. It's ridiculous lol. Why doesn't god intervene and set the record straight? Ha.

And xtianity adds nothing practical useful to one's view of the world; pretty much nothing can be done with the "knowledge" conveyed by xtianity. People can think about it, interpret it however they want, emotionally react to it, talk to other people about it, and that's about it. It's like the ultimate head cannon: a self-indulgent fantasy that's become so divorced from the actual story (reality) that it's no longer recognizable as having anything to do with the story. That applies to all supernatural-based religions actually.

Anyways, all supernatural beliefs are garbage and the believers unbearably self-absorbed and emotionally disturbed, but xtians are particularly noisome for me as well as dangerous for their drive to spread their mythology and, in the us at least, even poison government with it. Wish their deity would rapture them all off the face of the Earth.
