:a-guy: The Council of Nicaea and its consequences have been a disaster for the Christian religion. They have greatly increased the number of Christians who live in “advanced” countries, but they have destabilized society, have made life unfulfilling, have subjected human beings to indignities, have led to widespread psychological suffering (in the Third World to physical suffering as well) and have inflicted severe damage on the natural world.

Hmm…you blame Nicea, when Capitalism is more nascent.

I'm jokingly referring to the union of the Roman State with Christians by Constantine as the ideological source of Christian violence. When Christians use the state to violently suppress doctrine disagreement, as they did with the Arianism, they effectively become the Pharisees they deplore.

Constantine converting to Christianity has the same exact energy as some FBI director going, "Maybe MLK had a point."
