If your country pro Protestant or Protestant phobic

nobody even heard of protestants before these weirdo baptist cultists who yell at people in public started arriving

>>212325454 (OP)
I live in the province of Friesland and its traditionally almost 100% calvinist

maybe, just maybe might have something to do with the fact they were a spanish colony

>>212325454 (OP)
Yes, but the zainichi Habsburgs ruined it

>>212325642
We never were a Spanish colony
The king of Spain also held the titles to these lands but we were not administratively a colony or part of the kingdom of Spain
The catholics are the descendants of the people that never converted to protestantism in the first place

>>212325563
because all the protestants secularised while the Catholics largely retained their faith. Its a pretty common trend in countries where "classical protestantism" (Lutherans, Calvin's, anglicanism) is or was the dominant religion

>>212325454 (OP)
idk what is protestant

>>212326152
>Israeli education

calvinism * autocorrect is a faggot

Why are the only yo options being oro something or anti something? What about letting live and let live?

>>212325976

This is a protestant country, I really don't know why catholics and non-christians don't think they're not guests in my country, because you are.
so start acting like it

>>212326214
you going to accept United Church of Christ as your lgbt overlord since they are the original puritans?

>>212326214
read your beloved First Amendment, chud

>>212326292
faggots, women and jews playing dress up doesn't make them protestant, they will be burned at the stake.
>>212326322
considering we came here to flee catholics, they can fuck right off

>>212326199
The second the Spanish king raised taxes and persecuted non-catholics our rebellion started
Catholics were officially "tolerated" by the new calvinist regime (they had to have their churches and practices out of sight and were not eligible for higher political and military office)

>>212326398
I repeat. Read the First Amendment.

>>212326398
you were exiled here (alongside catholics) by your fellow protestants for having a mildly different theology

>>212326214
So true, down at the Megachurch Reverend Pastor Dr. Billy Bob was just saying this after he handed around the donation plate to send money to the IDF.

you on the right

>>212325533
i live in a dutch american hotspot and there is calvinist churches everywhere

>>212326546
all lutheran institutions on earth condemn and repudiate luther's books against the jews

>>212326546
I’m not even Catholic lol. You should write a strongly worded letter to the US Congress so that they repeal the First Amendment.

>>212325454 (OP)
no one cares, religion is dead here. Christians are rare, and among them protestants are even rarer. Still, prots are generally seen as weird and anti-fun

They used to be 10% of the population until the sun king revoked the edict of nantes in 1685 and imposed catholicism on the whole kingdom. Most of them were southerners

>>212326632
What would you say is the spirituality or pattern of thought that replaced religion with the common ethnic French population?
In other words what do French normies believe in?
I personally just feel a deep connection with the land and my people, but then again I live in a rural village. People from the city might not relate to my experience.

>>212326546
I don't even know how it's possible to make this picture. Catholics as opposed to protestants officially condemn homosexuality and transgenderism. You won't find transgender priests but you'll find plenty in prot denominations. Also protestants in the USA in particular are notoriously judeophiles, it's literally a meme about your country

it feels weird having to explain it to another european because i believed all europeans were the same about this, but no one thinks about religion, spirituality, life after death, etc. We don't care, it's completely out of our minds. The general feeling is total indifference to this sort of stuff. Anybody slightly spiritual is a minority. There is no large spiritual trend among french people that replaces christianity.

If people feel attracted to this sort of subject, they naturally gravitate towards christianity, very specifically catholicism, because we understand that it's the religion we used to believe in, and it's everywhere. We still have crosses everywhere, churches are part of our background and architecture and we maintain them well even if they are empty. I mean we were literally christians before we were french so it's hard to take it out, and it's not like anybody is trying anyway. The animosity of atheists only exist in christian countries like the USA. Atheists don't exist here

Spirituality and whacky semi religious beliefs are common here
A common phrase you'll hear from normies here is: "I dont believe in a God (like the Abrahamic version) but I do believe in a higher power/powers from nature"

>>212327249
>but I do believe in a higher power/powers from nature"
some women might say shit like this, but most people never think about this shit
