Why is it that every anime/manga unfailingly pushes their anti CHRISTIAN (note, not religious, you never seen other religions being bashed like Islam) anti-Church fedora tipping BS all the time?
Honestly, as a Christian this irritates the fuck out of me, everytime I see a priest or clergy or """Church""" in anime its always cartoonishly stereotypical tropes being pushed

The Japs are still butthurt about Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
How about you lurk more faggot. Or read a book about Japan's history with Christ-cucks.
Drink bleach
It's the same with western media
>every anime/manga unfailingly
Why do you unfairly judge thousands of anime that never mention Christianity at all?
The reason why SOME anime do it is because Christianity is a powerful institution that defined morality for a large portion of the world. Questioning such an institution is the basis of good story telling.
00 Gundam bashes Islam a lot
Christians, Jews and Muslims are all the same cancer that have been plaguing the civilized world for the last few milleniums. Of course they're getting called out for their evil cult behavior now that people understand there is no God.
Christians take a lot of shit and are expected to turn the other cheek and love their enemies.
Muslims just murder whoever bashes their faith.
tbf the christians are the least scary people to offend in this day and age
...
Islam bombs whoever insults them.
>Honestly, as a Christian this irritates the fuck out of me, everytime I see a priest or clergy or """Church""" in anime its always cartoonishly stereotypical tropes being pushed
good
Though they rarely question this authority, but create a giant strawman.
Every religion deserves to be mocked for how stupid they are.
Religion is just a massive cult. Get on with it faggot.
Because it's not about Christianity you doofus. It's about story-telling.
>The reason why SOME anime do it is because Christianity is a powerful institution that defined morality for a large portion of the world. Questioning such an institution is the basis of good story telling.
nigga there's no ""questioning"" it's literally the Church being inevitably cartoonishly evil bad guys who revel in what they do, baka
You Christ cuck fags need to leave my hobby
Christianity is the most bullyable religion. Very moe.
>plaguing the civilized world for the last few milleniums.
This is what fedorafags actually believe.
>inevitably cartoonishly evil
The percentage of anime that you are actually describing drops with every post you make.
Maybe because Church killed more people than Hitler and Stalin combined?
Spanish Inquisition. Brutal repression and massacres of the natives across the globe. Christianity and in particular the Catholic Church has more then earned its role as a morally questionable organization.
Also Jesus was likely a fag. So take that
>shinto portrayed as evil
>no complaints
>buddhism portrayed as evil

>christianity portrayed as evil
>LEAVE CHRISTIANITY ALONE!
>spanish inquisition
>literally cleansing Spain of Moors and killing less than 10,000 individuals over a 100 year period
Top lel, why are fedoras so historically illiterate.
Now the USSR and NSDAP germany on the other hand..
That's a shitty comparison. The time that those two had to kill vs the history of the church is kinda ridiculous.
I dont remember the church being bad in Trinity Blood but it's been years since I watched it
I remember the Pope being a fucboi though
You mean like when they destroyed the cultural inheritance of the Europeans for shits and giggles? Or when they murdered and exiled scientists for contradicting their delusions with facts?
>shinto and buddhism evil
name literally one anime that does this
You talking about the nazis?
Fuck off false flagging fedora nigger.
Where the fuck are the mods?
Japan doesn't give a fuck. If they could make fun of Islam without the fear of getting another bomb up their ass then they'd honestly probably do it too.
So they didn't massacre natives across the globe? They didn't repress other religions? The Norse weren't forced to adopt Christianity and forget their pagan culture? You do realize they didn't just kill, right? And yes commies are awful. So is any ideological belief taken in the extreme. Commies just replaced Christ with the state.
>Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
Matthew 5:11-12
About 1% of modern Japanese are Christian.
Or less.
It's a really small percentage, certainly not enough to call them a Christian nation.
Sword of the stranger.
The Nazis were pro science faggot. Also ironically Nazis are usually the good guys in anime. It's almost as if Japan hasn't been influenced by (((them)))
>mud huts and worshipping odin cock statues
Without Christian monks you wouldn't even have a recollection of what European ""culture"" was like because their traditions didn't even involve them preserving it.. go back to Church burning varg
Also, all the scientists and doctors of the Middle Ages and Renaissance right up until the French Revolution studied within the Church or were taught at Church facilities, the fact of the matter is that the Catholic Church is inextricably tied with scientific literacy and progress much like Islamic Madrassas
Your belief is misplaced and Allah shall punish you. Praise be the Prophet, pbuh
>The norse were forced to adopt christianity
No they weren't, dude, have you even got an idea of how Christianity spread in Europe. Monks did it peacefully and Norse monarchs converted, their populations followed suit.
>believing the bible jew
no thanks
>The Nazis were pro science faggot.
Germany had 2 brain drains. 1 before and during WW2, which was all the "Jewish" scientists leaving or being taken prisoners.
The other one after.
Anyone who didn't agree with the nazis was considered to be "Jewish". But Jews had an above average education, so there really were a lot of Jewish scientists.
ITT: one mad Christfag
You fucking retarded?
I'm a Christian too and you should grow a thicker skin, you're no better than SJWs.
The Church was (is) nothing more than an immensely powerful political institution, which is amoral at best. I don't know why people take offence at someone mentioning they're not champions of morality.
Nazis are cool though.
They're also without a doubt the most /fa/ group in history.
Nah, the bimillenial BLM riot for a socialist Jew named Jesus, which resulted in the glorious Indo-European cultures nearly being lost in favor of sky father fairy tales from the Middle East desert.
That's where you're wrong buckoroo. Your utter ignorance is baffling. I'm glad Christians are being outbred by muzzies. You're all pathetic cucks.
>sky father fairytales
>indoeuropean
got that right, who was Odin, Indra, Ahura Mazda etc but a skyfather.
DYEUS-PATER is literally a skyfather, dumbass
>Nazis are usually the good guys in anime
Name one anime where this happens.
lmao Triggered.
Your Christian safe space is that way
Those glorious cultures had been ruined long before. Extended exposition to the Romans had changed the values of all those tribes notably.
A) Modern liberal Christianity doesn't really have a big place in Japan like it does in western nations, all their knowledge and cultural ideas of Christianity come from history, when the Church was a violent institution that's biggest feats were authorising wars and purges.
B) They don't repesent Christians that way because they hate them, they represent Christains that way because they find them incredibly cool. Same reason everyone ever presents pirates as adventurous jolly sailors, or samurai as super human blood knights. Because it's cooler than sticking to reality where they were disease ridden petty criminals, or wealthy nobles who actually didn't do much fighting at all.
It still isn't.
because angels and shit are cool
Also historically they were pretty fucked up.
what?
Sup Forums is a Jewish board my friend.
Why aren't Jews ever portrayed in anime? No love for the chosen people?
An organization of influence and power. Same goes for the government, so why aren't you getting mad on their behalf? Obviously a falseflag, but since there might be actual people who are like that: you don't care about God when you get angry about how churches are depicted. You are getting angry that your house of men created by men for the sake of men is getting an adverse representation to those of your beliefs.
>kike on a stick
>not a jewish idol
you are contradicting yourself. christianism=judaism=allahu akbar
Romans are Indo-Europeans. Indo-European cultures uniting and finding their glorious roots is desirable. Them getting diluted by desert tribe delusions is not.
...
Persecution of Christians in Japan continued right up to the 1850s. You gotta make it look like you had a reason.
>as a Christian
kek aren't you embarrassed?
But the unity of Europe was precisely the point of adopting Christianity. Both when the Romans did it and when the Merovingians did it.
Oh father high in heaven
Smile down upon your son
He was busy with his money games
His women and his gun.
Oh Jesus save me!
And the unsung Western hero
He killed an Indian or three
And then he made his name in Hollywood
To set the white man free. [inb4 le epik white genocide xdd]
Oh Jesus save me!
If Jesus saves
Well, he'd better save Himself
From the gory glory seekers who use His name in death.
Oh Jesus save me!
I saw him in the city and on the mountains of the moon
His cross was rather bloody
He could hardly roll His stone.
Oh Jesus save me!
But he was just one out of many. Polytheism is culture, monotheism is mass psychosis.
Because it's fun to flip symbols of authority over their heads.
Why do you think governments are almost always antagonists in media?
Why do you think final bosses are more often than not literal fucking gods?
Why do you think positions of power are consistently questioned in stories?
It's easy conflict.
Preventing your culture and independence from being overthrown is enough of a reason to me.
*tips fedora*
*puts banana up the ass*
wtf I love science now
Catholics, Protestants and Orthodoxes sure are united.
Swing of the pendulum. Christianity went from a beloved religion to a mocked one in the span of a couple of thousand years. It's the way of things.
Don't worry though, it will make a come back in the year 3000, what with all the Gaia worshipers and cyber demons.
Or it'll just die out, like most religions.
More united than the Muslim world, and WAY more united than pre-Chrstian (pre-Roman) Europe.
There are probably no more than 10-20 shows anything like what you are talking about.
>Christianity went from a beloved religion to a mocked one in the span of a couple of thousand years. It's the way of things.
Christianity was never a beloved religion in Japan, so it's hardly a pendulum swing.
name literally 3 anime where christianity is the bad guy
>anti-christian
>not anti-papist
It's literally always about bishops/priests abusing their position as an authority figure for monetary gains or for power.
If that isn't a protestant message I don't know what is.
gb2/reddit/ fedora-tipping edgelords. This is a Christian imageboard.
Didn't Jesus die in Japan? The one who died on the cross was his brother who swapped places with him.
When most japs think about christianity they usually think about the catholic church at that time shortly before the reformation, when it was at ist absolute worst. Can't blame them for villainizing the hive of greed, lust, pride, powerhunger, decadence and sin that the catholic church was at that time.
Maybe not completely, but it's possible. Right now neopaganism is starting to gain a bit of ground so who knows.
It's a world phenomenon. Just observe the depiction of Jesus, it went from a solemn story about a guy getting betrayed, brutally tortured and murdered to an absolute joke character.
It's the main reason the mainstream didn't accept Passion of the Christ. The original interpretation of the character isn't accepted anymore.
>real life views should reflect in my anime!
Fuck off.
It bait like this that doesn't let us have civilized discussion.
No, it's actually bait like the OP.
Last time the Jews tried to start their subversion there he got assassinated.
You are retarded because most of these anime have churchpeople as mains. It's just that the catholic church is a sacral organisation with lots of cool costumes and stuff which makes it a good setting.
Also if you knew shit about the church you would know that Franciscus is constantly punishing corrupt fuckers that infiltrated the church to make money and other shit so it's not like this stuff never happens.
Oh, good. It wasn't a proper bait thread until a tripfag showed up
I mean that's not what cult means.
Incorrectly associating words with negative connotations is a terrible argument.
Literally every work of fiction reflects "real life views."
...
These threads are worrying because they show how much Sup Forums holds the whole site by the balls, Sup Forums included.
I'm not even talking about the people who are defending Christianity.
Index, Berserk, Full Metal Alchemist, all depict the church as evil, corrupt, cult like morally hypocritical and so on.
I've seen plenty of Anime that has treated Christianity as an exotic but ultimately decent religion and that has a good or at least neutral church.
>if Japan hasn't been influenced by (((them)))
my sides
Oh. If we're talking about that definition who cares. That's not even bad.
>Full Metal Alchemist
He said Christianity, the Leto church is not Christian.
OP's point is completely invalidated because Saint Oniisan exists.
Checkmate.
Fuck off back to Sup Forums
