One of the main reasons why Christianity is not popular in the West is because there is great sexual repression, especially against men.
Modern Christianity is based too much on the prohibition of masturbation and the prohibition of sex before marriage, primarily directed towards men.
It also fails to control female sexuality.
In the US, many churches are fighting to have "reformed" prostitutes, porn stars, and onlyfans models in their ranks. Which further highlights the double standard.
The Church in the Middle Ages had the concept of lessor-sins. And it wasn't that strict about male (natural) sexuality.

I would just add that I am primarily talking about the Catholic Church and many Protestant denominations.

It's simple. You have never seen God.

Is it a greater sin to be a liar, or masturbating?

Jesus wasn't even a real person, you dummy

Yup, the first verses of thecfirdt chapter of the gospel of John subtilty gives away the secret of the myth telling the reader that Jesus is just an anthropomorphized version of the bible, but almost nobody gets the clue

All gods are mythologies
All holy books are fictional

The church world is a subverted mess with absolute mountains of heresy right now, most people only know popculture churchianity and have never really heard the Gospel or the reason for why Christ came.

We are in the church age of Laodicea. Read it, It's exactly how the modern world is now, and there are many antichrists and the spirit of antichrist is rampant now. This should not confuse or dishearten honest Christians, in fact this is what will happen in the last days. I expect the official world and the popculture world to go even harder on Christians in the near future. They hate Jesus Christ with such a passion, it's incredible how they can hate such a good and selfless person for no real reason. They too confirm the truthfulness of Christ, "they hated me without a cause". All they want is destruction and mayhem. I am glad that they won't be in the kingdom to come on this earth, they will all be outside in the desert wilderness where they belong and where they want to be.

Time to fire up the Early Life machine, I see.

>Why the Church is not popular among men
maybe because the message changed from
>kill the invaders, retake the holy lands
to
>let the invaders kill you, let them take your homes
dumbass

Lying. It's a proof that you are a weakling, you feel guilty, or you believe in a weak God.

>>511433991
Sin is sin. There is no greater or lesser sin. Whenever you sin you move away from God.

Which of these would be the more important thing to fix? What would make you a better person?

Romans 1:18-32

Paul describes here how people reject God and fall deeper and deeper into sin. The sequence shows that there are degrees and stages of moral depravity. He begins with ingratitude and ends with brutal godless behavior.
“Therefore God gave them up” (Romans 1:24, 26, 28)
This “giving up” shows that the further one moves away from God, the deeper the sin becomes, a kind of increase in the severity of sin.

>1 John 5:16-17 If any man see his brother sin a sin which is not unto death, he shall ask, and he shall give him life for them that sin not unto death. There is a sin unto death: I do not say that he shall pray for it. All unrighteousness is sin: and there is a sin not unto death.

Pretty sure saying Jesus never existed is a fringe view, even among secular scholars nowadays.
