Hey Sup Forums. Here's an interesting thought I got while surfing Wikipedia.
Pic related shows the spread of Christianity in Europe in 325 (dark blue) and 600 AD (light blue).
Notice how it started off in major cities before it spread throughout. This instantly reminded me of the 2016 US election which was pretty much city vs suburb/rural. Is progressivism going to follow the same path Christianity did back then whilst conservatism slowly dies out like paganism?

horrible thread you probably have kleinfelters
Dylan Edwards
Hopefully. Conservatives aren't very good at conserving things.
Jaxson Rogers
Just like native european populations! ;-;
Jordan Taylor
Retarded thread, you certainly have Kleinfelters

Christianity is a good sounding meme, which also has success in reality. Leftism/Marxism/communism is a good sounding meme, which has failed time after time generating nothing more than misery and death. So: no, Christianity is not the similar to Marxism.
Henry Brooks
Interesting connection you made there, op.
We live in a different time though. Paganism had some good things but is definitely outdated and barbaric in many ways.
Would you accept to get sacrificed for your gods, for example?
I believe that there is a probability that old and new religions are connected. The 12 gods of Olympus (nephilims) were the children of Titans (demons) and overthrew them. Think of it like Tolkien's pantheon. One God and many lesser gods.

Rather it shows that novel ideas are adopted by the cities first. It doesn't mean that such idea will spread.
Jaxson Green
How do you not know this? You know what the words "heathen" and "pagan" actually mean? Both mean "villager/rural".

CHRISTIANITY WAS NOT SPREAD BY THE JEWISH DIASPORA CHRISTIANITY IS ARYAN FAKE JEWS FAKE JEWS
Colton Evans
Only rural rednecks and suburban retards voted for Trump
All city people voted for Hillary

Progressives don't have children. You'll either be replaced by Nationalists or Muslims.

>Would you accept to get sacrificed for your gods, for example? Why not sacrifice criminals and pedophiles? I see no issue with it.
I refuse to believe that people would just sacrifice their healthy relatives. Sounds like propaganda.
Daniel Jackson
this is stupid and the conclusion you reached is fallacious, in fact it was the countrymen that were the most religious, and it remains that way today
Joseph Reed
It's obvious that you would seek to convert the masses of the city first before rural settlements.
Adrian Butler
>Leftism/Marxism/communism is a good sounding meme Can you please point out to 1 single thing that sounds good to you? I really can't think of anything.
Owen Edwards
>lefty admitting that Marxism is a secular religion
Fuck off m8
Jack King
Yes. Rural and suburban retards losing is the natural order of things.
Henry Jackson
Christianity was the first middle eastern invasion of Europe.
William Nguyen
No. 1. Christianity is an abbrahamic religion which borrowed many pagan rituals and holidays, while progressivism is entirely western idea which aims at the obliteration of the very culture that created it. 2.Rome's big cities werent enormous shitholes filled with niggers. Foreigners yes, some >80IQ baboons - no.
Luke Morales
It began in cities because information was spread through cities first. Now with the internet and all, information is more or less equally spread throughout with perhaps a couple of years different between cities and rural areas regarding trends and such, but if this was the case then your theory would have already occurred.
Anyways, you cannot make any correlation between the two. It's simply retarded.
Julian Adams
Things that spread by word of mouth spread faster in places where there are more mouths, very useful observation op
Adam King
pretty much degeneracy is always spearheaded in major urban centers
"paganus" is the 2k years old equivalent of "rural/suburban retard"
Ayden Collins
degenerates in the city are saying that it's "wrong" to castrate my son so he can be sodomized by Diana worshipers seeking a temple prostitute
Noah Walker
Not a very accurate map considering it doesn't take into account the germanic migrations in the 400's.
Robert Allen
could be, but what you guys are overlooking is, that the "old" Forces are coming back with a vengeance. We had around 40 years of progressivism and globalisation. And ist followers neither have gained more wealth, nor grown in numbers. Progressivism spread through Europe and the US and as a result the West has lost it s power. Islam and the guys trying to MAGA are a rightwing force. The Enlightenment is over
Jayden Brown
A Jewish ideology spreads to cities first?! I am shocked and amazed!
Jason Nguyen
>criminals and pedophiles the whole point of sacrifises is to give up something that is of value to you. Sacrificing things you don't want anyways is a joke
Logan Rivera
This. Cities have greater resources and thus greater freedom to experiment. Most won't make it past the city line.

Muh frens lik it. I dun kno dat but da tv and colleg tol me dat so I bleev it.

>During the transition to the Christian Empire, Quintus Aurelius Symmachus argued that Rome's continued prosperity and stability depended on preserving the mos maiorum, and the early Christian poet Prudentius dismissed the blind adherence to tradition as "the superstition of old grandpas" (superstitio veterum avorum) and inferior to the new revealed truth of Christianity. remind you of something?
