And it has all sorts of things that were very traditional that Europeans and Christians would have agreed with historically.
So I think that aspect, and it's confident.
So now you have a vacuum in Europe, or in the West in general, because of the reasons I've outlined, dealing with the sort of slow melting away of Christianity based on these philosophical or epistemological underpinnings.
Now you have Islam coming in, and it may have all its problems and all, but it's still, it's very visceral, it's down to earth, and it does offer all of these things that are filling the vacuum, okay?
And this is why you find Western people who are turned off and find no resonance in modern secular liberal culture, and they turn to something like Islam, which on the heart of it doesn't make any sense.
I wager if those people actually had a true Christian upbringing, or according to the way I'm trying to describe it, which is actually much more fused with a metaphysical understanding, they would not find Islam appealing.
But that's what I mean.
There's a vacuum now, so that even something that is inherently inferior, inasmuch as it offers something of a primordial conservative worldview that still resonates with all humans, then it becomes appealing.
And then it's all, especially in this country, it's coalescing in a very strange way.
As you all know, there's a new blasphemy code about Islam, a new anti-Islamophobia or anti-Islam hostility thing.
And of course, this is just this is that one more way to help Islam to become more empowered, more entrenched.
You can't even criticize it.
And I haven't looked as closely as I'd like to the wording, but it seems it's very fuzzy, intentionally so, and vague so that anything it says, things like encouraging hostility or who's going to decide all that.
And all of this, so the kind of Christianity that I'd like to see go away and I'd like to see it sort of bring back a more traditional form of Christianity that prevailed during Christendom.
Well, what I call, let's put it this way, I've tried to coin a word, I call it doormat Christianity.
And I think this is the modern form of Christianity whereby Christians are taught again Christianity.
in keeping with what I'm saying, this materialist idea, to just be doormats, okay?
Christianity begins and ends by you being a doormat.
You're non-confrontational, you lay down, everyone walks all over you, and then you get to pat yourself on the shoulder and say, hey, look, I'm virtuous, I'm good.
It's also a way of turning a vice cowardice into a virtue, I think, and that's why it's become very prevalent, what I call doormat Christianity.
