Many people on the right and on Sup Forums talk about Generation Z being the most conservative generation since the pre-war II era, however they ignore Generation Z surprisingly high religiosity. Whilst the Baby Boomers in young adulthood had a church attendance rate of 26% Gen Z is currently at 41%
Yes God does exist, and this is coming from someone who was an atheist untill a month ago. (I'm Gen Z aswell) Currently I am a Deist, but I expect that to change as I read more philosophy and Theology. It's a shame that you don't take religion more seriously Sup Forums larping as a crusader isn't going to save the west, superior morality and traditional values will.
With conservatism growing more rapefugees pouring into the west,and with such a religious youth I cannot see how this combustible mix will not produce an fifth great awakening.
This is only a bad thing to Godless and/or Liberal Millennials, this is Europe's salvation.

I see no proof of this "DUDE GEN Z IS SO TRADITIONAL LMAO" narrative Sup Forums is forcing on others. Yes, some Gen Z kids larp as traditional, but millennials did the same.
Joseph Ross
Gen Z mostly hates politics and the rest vote for the generic socialist parties bec their parents told them to can confirm bec Gen Z myself
Tyler Mitchell
Very well, here's one from the US calling you all christcucks. Your religion holds the lion's share of the blame for our current problem. Their insistence that all men are equal under god, that our souls are interchangable, and the focus on giving all your shit to the poor and worthless of the world rather than those of your race... look what's happened now! All well and good to love thy neighbor until he invites himself in and never leaves! We do need a value system, we do need to respect our ancestors, we do need non-pozzed heroes. Christianity doesn't give us any of that.
Brayden Jones
Bump cuz Im an old fag and this thread gives me hope.
This. I'm noticing so many people turning to Christ or rather "re"-turning. Many people today come from religious families that unfortunately did not teach their kids their own values.
And as people grow they mostly abandon atheism, because atheism is morally and logically incoherent.
God is the logical end-point of this philosophy. You just have to come to the realization that the Bible is God's word and it's easy to get into heaven once you open yourself up to the gospel.
Gen Z is even more liberal than Millenials imo. I’m a MtF and I’m a millennial. I seem to be encountering more and more “gender-fluid” individuals and they are all Gen Z.

That's because the idea has been imposed on us from an early age, however the fact still remains that we are more conservative and religious than any generation for 75 years.
Alexander Thomas
I think thats just because gays arent opressed anymore and because of their new freedom they "come out" more.Even in times before the amount would have probably been roughly the same but because homosexuals were opressed they had to hide their sexuality
Chase Edwards
Estrogen and mass child molestation also are also making people gay

The first major church to become pro-white openly will carry the next generation to new levels of faith. Sadly, no church I'd interested in doing that today and they all insist brown Christianity is the future. If this trend does not abate the faith will be worthless to whites forever. Even if they overcome the odds no white man with forget the churches were all arrayed against his survival.

Don't forget anti-pregnancy pills that devastate women and destroy their hormones and behavior. All women use pills from age 14 until they're 35, and then they have messed up kids.

I'm a millennial and I firmly believe in God. If religiosity is coming back, I am very happy about that. Let my generation be an example to you of what happens to a people THAT FORGET THE GLORY OF GOD.

I personally think a combination of atheism, post modernism and lack of tradition will cause the future youth rebellions to back to tradition and faith.
It makes sense, how do you be edgy in a word that embraces fucking trannies and satanists
I would argue that people like Jordan Peterson and other right wing you tubers are the early voices in this long and broad trend reversal.
Just as there were atheistic marxists voices founding hippy and enviromental issues in the 1930’s and 40’s these are the neo transendentalists and romantics founding the cultural changes hat will hit the mainstream in about 20 years

Yes I have. I see all these "studies". So I'm supposed to be excited because Gen Z has a conservative element to it just like millennials did? What exactly is that supposed to prove?
Christian Cook
Read some GK Chesterton laddy
Jaxon Reyes
If you have read the studies you should know that Generation Z is more conservative and religious than the Millenials. It proves that society is finally rebelling against the sexual revolution of the 1960s.
Adam Stewart

Michael Powell
Major backlash.
Hunter Wilson
>If you have read the studies you should know that Generation Z is more conservative and religious than the Millenials By what, a few percent? No it doesn't. You buy into the memes too much. There is an effort out there to make people believe that we live in a prude society so the west is no longer criticized for it's immorality. You fall right into that. >It proves that society is finally rebelling against the sexual revolution of the 1960s If that were true, then porn would be on it's way out, so would slut culture in general. But it's not, it's only growing stronger.
Jason Howard
Thanks for the recommendation, another thing I have noticed is the growing Traditionalist community on YouTube, the next few decades are going to be interesting.

You already see people refuting social media and cable and other hallmarks of modern technology.
don’t be surprised that people find themselves feeling distanced from the natural word and start purposely living without tech.
If you think that’s crazy just look at the popularity of organic food
Elijah Ward
True Im a Z and I found religion just a while ago.
Jacob Torres
>religion not race
Carson King
Well, you might already reject it completely, but The Bible. Even if you don't believe in the spiritual stuff, the timeline of progression in The Bible is usually:
>People are desperate and need God. >Begin worshipping Him. >Are blessed and have good lives. >Generation(s) goes by, people are living well and don't care about God, stop praying, stop believing. >Elders warn the younger generation to not forget God, youth doesn't care. >God destroys their lives, scatters them. >Hard times again. >People again find God and begin to pray, the good times return.
Repeat. Even if you neglect the God stuff, it's clear that this sort of social cycle of tradition and liberation has been a thing for at least thousands of years (at least amongst historically civilized people). Religiosity and tradition brings the good times, decadence and atheism brings the bad times.
Benjamin Ross
Yeah, prosperity breeds complacency and decay, then those who are wise enough to recover go back to the traditions that made them successful in the first place.
Owen Turner
"By what, a few percent? No it doesn't. You buy into the memes too much. There is an effort out there to make people believe that we live in a prude society so the west is no longer criticized for it's immorality. You fall right into that."
The diffrence is not a few percent, 59% of Gen Z call themselves moderate/conservative whilst 83% and 85% of the Millennials and Gen X respectively call themselves Liberal. Society is still very degenerate and immoral I don't think this is going to happen soon. It will be a few decades at least.
"If that were true, then porn would be on it's way out, so would slut culture in general. But it's not, it's only growing stronger."
We are only at the start of this shift so there are not going to be many clear changes at the moment.
Camden Ward
Muslims will pay
Wyatt White
Yes, count my reply as atheist charity religion fag :P
Alexander Carter
I could say the same to you, you ignorant prick. Anyone who is still religious at this point should off themselves. No point in carrying on I'm afraid. You are weak minded and shouldn't be allowed to exist.
Justin Moore
what did you read or experience that made you become religious?

You don't even deserve a bump anymore. I hate to be one of those fags, but please brah, learn how to greentext.

Is this a joke? >We are only at the start of this shift so there are not going to be many clear changes at the moment That sounds like an excuse, I don't buy these memes. This "Gen Z is so traditional" talking point insists we see the results now before us, and no, we don't. Young people don't even know what conservative or traditional means anymore. It's all larping and labels.

I'm not religious, but I believe in God. Here are some pointers.
These three channels are a good starting point. If you want to have a good basis for believing in God not just muh beauty, you will need to read lots of philosophy and theology, but for now you can watch these.
Ultimately though it is up to you though, I wish you the best of luck.

"Why would you barf out those numbers about Gen Z and millennials, but then post a link that says that the term millennial is useless? Is this a joke?"
The figures don't lie, doesn't mean I have to agree with the opinionated part of the article.

It's not an excuse, instead of just repeating you point about how we don't see the results now please tell me how I was wrong about.

Yeah, Jesus was a man of the law. He wouldn't accept illegal migrant crossings.
He'd call those people thieves, exactly what they are. Jesus paid no mind to ever being politically correct.

Xavier Bell
>Thinks he's the first person to ever denounce religion. Even the Bible talks about atheists and how arrogant and blind they are. You are not enlightened, you are just self-absorbed by your need to feel like you are above others. Your ilk is nothing new. People thousands of years ago were going "pffft religion." Fedora lords are nothing new in spirit.
Jonathan Sanders
That what Bible do you recommend Sven? Because afai, there's atleast half a dozen. So what is it? Roman Catholicism? Protestantism? Orthodoxy?
r/AcademicBiblical is a good place to lurk for good information on scholarly perspectives of the Bible, particularly the NT scriptures and the resurrection. The general consensus among the regular posters there seems to be that Jesus didn't really rise from the dead but that they (earliest Christians) believed in an immediate "ascension" into Heaven in a spiritual, non-bodily sense, and after thinking about it and interpreting Jesus after-the-fact through the lens of the OT scriptures and their hopes at the time ended up creating a more vivid, literal resurrection story; first orally and eventually scripturally. There is good arguments for this hypothesis but it isn't provable.
Liam Smith
Just read KJV alongside a modern day translation.
I recommend reading the Book of Matthew if you don't have time for the whole Bible.

Well, I actually read the King James Bible and the Swedish Bible from 1917. There is also a Bible called "Folkbibeln" from 1998, which is a modern translation made by the Evangelical movement, but I stopped reading that one because they release new and "improved" versions every year, which tells me it's a big fraud. The modern Swedish Bible that mainstream churches used is called "Bibel 2000" and is crazy -- stay away!
If you meant denomination, I am a Baptist.

KJV isn't the most accurate English bible. I would personally recommend the NASB for accuracy. It isn't as pretty seeing as it isn't written in Elizabethan English but that isn't the most important thing when reading scripture.
Camden Jenkins
This looks like good stuff user, just started and I like the approach. Definitely a good articulation so far. t. 5 years convert, Latin Rite Traditional Catholic and loving it, Sin calls, and I want to run from the goodness into every sort of vice such is my fucked-upness. I went through a materialistic awakening to the wisdom of Christianity too, a good while before I decided to give prayer one last try in life and walked into a church a few weeks later. I took it careful and skeptical, but enough happened to keep me there. Maybe I was lucky, I put it down to providence and telling Him some pretty strong conditions (I've been in fakestianity before), but I found a good church with holy trad priests who know what's going on and aren't dumb. Never looked back and there honestly isn't a price you could offer me to entice me to walk away.
Zachary Clark
Welcome home.
Charles Bell
By the way, there's a really great Bible app called "MySword" where you can add your own Bibles by downloading them and putting them in your phone. You can even add texts "parallel" to compare different Bible versions side by side. You can also add bookmarks and favorite verses, notes and stuff.
I think it's open source without any adds too. Really great tool.
Good luck mate.
Caleb Baker
Stop trying to find an excuse for this conservative thought or that, do not politicize Him, do not try to promote Him under the guise of Politics. You're disgraceful
Isaiah Martinez
I'm so happy for you, user. The biggest hurdle to overcome is our need for constant validation that betrays our lack of trust, or faith. What we call skepticism and justify as the most rational way to live is but the consequence of this traumatic loss of trust that makes us overcareful and cowardly before the irreducible complexity and uncertainty of life and the future, that skepticism is also hopeless to solve. Fortunately, we learn to place our trust in the eternally 'undisappointing' God and thus prevent and remedy the trauma caused by worldly concerns and pursuits.
Glad to be useful.
Adrian Lopez
I'd also recommend relevant books by Dr. Peter Kreeft. He makes the Summa very accessible.
Andrew Wilson
Anyone interested in Christian theology should read Calvin’s institutes. You can’t get anything better.

Religions are always a bluepill - if they weren't, then why do they demand their veracity be taken on faith alone?
Look at the parallels between religions and leftism. It's the same Jewish garbage

Jordan Nelson
Okay Anons, so this sacrifice thing, pretty dumb and ugly, right? Look again. Look at what you know. Mankind has been a religious creature from the start. Archaeological finds invariably contain some religious element. And in all there is a thing called sacrifice, there is some sacrificial logic.
Now before you dismiss that as ignorant and superstitious, bare in mind that the language of sacrifice is always with us, as therefore is the underlying logic. We may not sacrifice a cow to the sun God for our food, but we do sacrifice our time to the money god (the system, the Big Other which guarantees our well-being if we engage in the transaction with it). Consider the ancient Canaanite throwing their children into Molech's fire: "Oh Molech, please guarantee our crops, and take this gift", and juxtapose it with the woman having an abortion because it would incovenience her career: "Oh Big Other of the social-ladder, please take this life in payment for my promotion." Is there really that much different? Are we really "beyond such superstitions".
It is a part of us user. God don't need sacrifices, we do. So He took care of it and was made man.
Brayden Allen
I'm commenting on the coming fifth great awakening and the possible effects, anything which could be interpreted as trying to politicise him is not intentional.
Zachary Gray
Incorrect. In fact, the Bible is way ahead of you, because even though we have tons of evidence that the Bible is indeed the Word of God, the Bible actually rejects that line of reasoning, and asks us to believe in God's word through faith, not evidence.
Remember when Jesus was on the cross, and the Jews screamed at him, "COME DOWN FROM THE CROSS THAT WE MAY SEE AND BELIEVE!", but Jesus had already told them, "The Jews require a sign, but there shall no sign be given unto this wicked and adulterous generation, but the sign of the prophet Jonah." Keep in mind that Jesus had performed miracles in front of their eyes, and they STILL did not believe him.
It's not evidence or science that leads to salvation. It is the GOSPEL that's the power of God unto salvation for anyone that believes -- not evidence.
The Gospel was a stumbling block to the Jews and foolishness to the Greeks, but to us that are saved it's the power of God.
