>You will never be a Jacobin and proceed to storm cathedrals and destroy the lifeless icons and statues of saints while forcing nuns and monks to actually make themselves useful
>You will never be an anarchist/revolutionary in Civil War-era Rossiya and storm monasteries and expose the fraudulent 'relics' while burning the useless prayer books and Bibles and melting the gold and metal for secular and more useful services while re-purposing the churches - constructed from that taken from the people - into buildings for public use
>You will never live 1930s Spain and occupy a Falangist area and subject its religious buildings to the torch and dig up the bodies of supposed 'saints' and beatii from their gold-encrused reliquiaries and expose their rotten or skeletal remains to the peasants that once used to venerate them while shattering religious statues to show their lack of power.

>says the Christcuck who in all probability thinks "the Cathars/Bogomils/Waldensians/[insert any other "heretical" sects here] deserved to be killed!"
Talk shit, get hit
Sure thing, mate.

>you will never be a German peasant storming a cathedral and destroying phony relics worshiped by idolaters
I'm all for hanging priests (preferably with the guts of capitalists), but destroying beautiful statues is bad. Leave iconoclasm to religious fanatics.
You probably don't even know what falangism is, you tool.

>beautiful statues
Most of the statues inside religious institutions are mass-produced figures, and most of the time, they aren't even statues, just porcelain kitsch crap. But I assure you, in any case, that we'll save anything of artistic merit such as the Pieta or the Sistine Chapel, and convert the Vatican into a museum and the megachurches back into the respective buildings they used to be before Christcucks purchased the property.

>You'll never be a proto-protestant denying Early Christians access to the body of their martyr so that they won't worship them
But when the adversary of the race of the righteous, the envious, malicious, and wicked one, perceived the impressive nature of his martyrdom, and [considered] the blameless life he had led from the beginning, and how he was now crowned with the wreath of immortality, having beyond dispute received his reward, he did his utmost that not the least memorial of him should be taken away by us, although many desired to do this, and to become possessors of his holy flesh. For this end he suggested it to Nicetes, the father of Herod and brother of Alce, to go and entreat the governor not to give up his body to be buried, "lest," said he, "forsaking Him that was crucified, they begin to worship this one." This he said at the suggestion and urgent persuasion of the Jews, who also watched us, as we sought to take him out of the fire, being ignorant of this, that it is neither possible for us ever to forsake Christ, who suffered for the salvation of such as shall be saved throughout the whole world (the blameless one for sinners ), nor to worship any other. For Him indeed, as being the Son of God, we adore; but the martyrs, as disciples and followers of the Lord, we worthily love on account of their extraordinary affection towards their own King and Master, of whom may we also be made companions and fellow disciples!

This isn't a Protestant thread. I'd gladly join on destroying a megachurch as much as I'd love to go back in time to see Catholic churches being despoiled. The only thing is, your "churches" hardly have anything inside to destroy, and therefore, would be less satisfying to defile.
