    I believe it will, as you can see accross the world that eternalism is crushed beneath the weight of high quality education, delivered on mass.

    The problem is, capitalists love what Christianity metastasised into.

    If anyone want to see the effect modern Christianity has on people, you won’t have to look further than the west indies, during the abolition of slavery in the British empire.

    Obviously, they wouldn’t let aboloshionists anywhere near the slave plantations of the west indies. However, the slavers would allow missionaries. The rational from the missionaries being that once the people kept as slaves became Christian, the slavers would have no option but to let their fellow Christians go.

    However, the enslaved converts didn’t go to the slavers, demanding their freedom. Bizarrely, vast numbers of them seem to conclude “oh well, as this is only temporary and I’ll have the rest of eternity to enjoy, there’s no need to rock to boat here. So, I’ll settle down and be the best slave I can be, in service to God.”

    Crazy huh?

    When we think of the vast differences in the world religions, you can only imagine how fortunate the rich and powerful must have felt when that specific version of that one specific religion became the biggest on the planet. They must have thanked their lucky stars when they found that out.
