Why did polytheism fail?
>>
>>834907
I want to say "It's all the Jews' fault" somehow.
>>
>>834907
It didn't, there are still billions of polytheists.
>>
>>834956
take off your trip pls

>>834922
I know it's a meme to say, but this isn't too far from the truth.
>>
>>834907

Christianity is polytheism.
>>
>>834965
W-what if the Jews started the "I bet the Jews did this" meme so when the Jews ACTUALLY did it, nobody would believe us?
Oh G-d. I mean, God.
>>
>>834971
nice meme

>>834971
It has polytheistic elements=/= it's polytheistic.

What if it's always been the Jesuits scapegoating the jews?
>>
Literally Plato.

He set up a metaphysical world that is more fitting for mono than polytheism.

There are certain logical conclusions that must follow if you hold poly or monotheism as an axiom.

This is a good video explaining it.

Well, for one thing there were Jews (and Jews being scapegoated) long before there were Jesuits.
On the other hand I am a Jesuit so maybe better don't believe me.
>>
>>834971

Christianity isn't, but Catholicism is.

The OP is false.
Babylonian polythenisn is still ripe, Satan have just found other ways to use it to trick Humanity by making us think it really isn't Polytheism.
A good example is Halloween, where he tricks millions of children to go out and worship whatever idols he can think off.

I think this is a pretty good example of how the Jesuit works.
While making a claim he do give us a reason to not believe the claim, though that reason is delivered as a joke.
Already getting an counter argument to his own (missleading) argument we won't think of one for ourselves, but since the counterargument is just an unserious joke we will soon forget it in favor of the Jesuit's argument for something
Aka, Jesuit brainwashing happens.

Last time I checked Hinduism is still going 1 billion+ strong, OP

>one religion, tied almost exclusively to a single nation and its descendants

And last time I checked most Hindus are actually Monotheists with all the minor gods just being different forms of the main one.

Shh, just embrace the Societas Iesu, Anon. We can help you.

How isn't that less Monotheism than the holy trinity m8?

Because people really, really like hierarchy. They ache for order.

Apostate pls, the SJ is probably the single most beneficial educational institution the Church has ever had the pleasure of existing with.

The Vatican is the most evil institution on earth, and the black robes are the most evil people on earth. Directly dealing with satan and bringing the Antichrist to power evil.

Pure evil.

No clue why in one post you're pissed off when people say Christianity isn't Catholicism, and then in your next post make sure it's clear that your Catholicism is not Christianity.

Maybe you're just irrational papist filth. Maybe that.
>>
>>835147
Abhorrent, but I have faith that you will return into the welcoming arms of the Mother Church.

>>835158
Because Pope Franciscus isn't wearing the shoes anymore, right?
I absolutely agree.
>>
>>834907
Where?

Between Catholics, Hindus, African folk religions and the various and sundry religions of east asia I'd say that polytheism is alive and well.

I bet Alberto Riviera never left the Jesuits.
>>
>>835094
you realize that's a later interpretation of the vedas? Their were theologians in the roman-greco world who believed the same things about paganism. There are definitely polytheistic varieties of Hinduism.
>>
>>834961
Complaining about tripfags is pointless these days. Wearing a trip is actually doing people a favour, since it means filtering them becomes an option.

Christian ended the great polytheism of Europe. Islam ended the polytheism in Arabia. The asian countries never had any of this and are still strongly polytheist. So are many afro syncretic religions
>>

How much do they pay you by post?
>>
It failed in the West because being in a polytheist cult was expensive. It was also politically divisive. Which is why Rome used Christianity as a unifying tool.
>>
Considering that Roman Catholicism has you building shrines and praying to thousands of saints I would hardly say polytheism is dead in the western world.
>>
>>838117
Though none of these saints got any power by themselves, they simply work as a meddler between the one praying and God.
Catholicism may believe in a God that is weaker than the Protestant one, since he needs other to come and talk to him to hear the prayers of his subjects, but I wouldn't say it goes as far as being polytheist.

Monotheism preferable for dictators.
Idea is simple: you can't choose god, so you can't choose a ruler of country, so fuck off, shut up and pray.
Also islam is polytheism too, every 'name' of allah such different, thus can be consider as different figures in unite like holy trinity like holy hundredty.
