System Christianity: Worse Than A Bad Joke

What is System Christianity?

Generally speaking, System Christians adhere to the fundamental necessity of the System in fulfilling and promoting the establishment of heaven on earth, which they believe to be Christianity's primary goal. The focus on this-worldliness tends to render the afterlife as little more than an afterthought in the minds of most System Christians.

System Christians aim to work within the institutional, organizational, and bureaucratic frameworks the System offers because they are convinced "good works" can only be achieved through such means.

System Christians believe the divine mission of Christianity is somehow wedded to the System and that Christianity possesses the power to transform the System into an earthly kingdom of God. System Christians yearn to secure a place at the global governing table of public-private partnership in order to help manifest this vision (presuming they honestly believe in the vision).

System Christians outsource their thinking entirely to the System and its latest flavor of leftism. Thus, any input they offer the System rarely, if ever, rises above the level of echoing or parroting the System's output; more specifically, the trending and topical talking points, platitudes, and plans surrounding issues such as climate change, anti-racism, equity/equality, reformed capitalism, mass migration, etc.



Want an example of System Christianity in action? Read this article about a recent Vatican-sponsored health conference to find out more; (commentary added by me):


An eclectic mix of participants are taking part in a unique three-day Vatican conference on COVID-19, other global health threats and how science, solidarity and spirituality can address them.

This conference is crucial because it adheres to the System's edict that none are safe until all are safe!


Along with Pope Francis, the event includes Dr. Anthony Fauci, soprano Renee Fleming, the CEOs of Pfizer and Moderna and the lead guitarist of Aerosmith.

It's like the beginning of a bad joke . . . Pope Francis, Dr. Fauci, the CEOs of Pfizer and Moderna, and the lead guitarist of Aerosmith walk into a bar . . . 


The conference, which begins Thursday and ends Saturday with a virtual audience with the pope, was planned well before the pandemic erupted last year. Organizers say it has only taken on more relevance amid a growing appreciation of the need for global access to health care, new advances in vaccine technology and greater understanding of the mental health cost of loneliness.

Nothing says repentance for closing churches and turning your back on your spiritual obligations during the birdemic more than organizing a conference about health care and vaccine technology. 


Fauci, who is leading the U.S. pandemic response, told the online conference in recorded remarks Thursday that the pandemic had confirmed to him that faith and science are constantly evolving — and that scientists in particular must humbly admit they don’t have all the answers all the time.

The only answers scientists have today are System answers, which are wholly aligned against God and Creation. 

One answer Fauci said he did have was that the key to overcoming current vaccine hesitancy is pairing the right medical message with the right messenger.

“You have someone who’s a deeply religious person who will listen to their clergy. That’s different than me with a suit going into an area telling people to do something,” he said.

Yes, what we need is an Antichrist figure! Someone who can present the System's machinations as divinely-inspired in order to break through that darned discernment espoused by serious Christians.


He was referring to the religiously inspired resistance to taking COVID-19 vaccines that were indirectly developed using lines of cells derived from aborted fetuses. The Vatican has declared that all COVID-19 vaccines are not only morally licit, but that people have a moral responsibility to get the jabs to protect others.

Being injected with experimental treatments containing the cells of aborted fetuses to protect against a faux pandemic is now a moral imperative because 'health'. Any resistance to such an agenda is considered immoral by both the System and System Christianity. Let that sink in for a few minutes.


Fauci is opening the multidisciplinary conference, which was originally scheduled to take place at the Vatican in May 2020 but was postponed a year and eventually put online due to the pandemic.

The virtual format, though, has allowed for an even greater variety of participants.

You see? Virtual world is way better and far more diverse than in-person world.


A Harvard neuroscientist is leading a conversation about brain health and rock stars with Aerosmith guitarist Joe Perry.

Pairing brain health with rock stars strikes me as rather oxymoronic, but whatever. On a side note, I wonder if Joe Perry performed an acoustic version of "Dude Looks Like a Lady" at some point during the conference . . . you know, to sneak some of the trans agenda into the mix, just for laughs. 

Soprano Fleming is participating in a panel discussion on the role of music in treating cardiac patients. Supermodel Cindy Crawford has a slot to talk about “beauty from the inside out,” and Chelsea Clinton is teaming up with an Italian public health official to promote equal access to health care.

Cindy Crawford? Chelsea Clinton? Could this conference have been any more cringe-worthy?


Moderna CEO Stephane Bancel is speaking about the mRNA technology behind Moderna’s coronavirus vaccine, while his counterpart at Pfizer, Albert Bourla, is heading up a discussion on preparedness for future global health crises.

And you can bet your bottom dollar that there will be plenty of global health crises in the future, all requiring rigorous peck programs.


The conference, which features prominent U.S. journalists as moderators and academics in a variety of fields, also has a religious component. Rabbis, cardinals, imams and representatives of Christian denominations are discussing the role of religion and spirituality in health.

You see that? Lots of experts; even a few religious ones just for kicks. And since all religions are pretty much the same, why not have a veritable smorgasbord of religious figures show up to talk about health.

And what is the role of religion and spirituality in health? Well, that's a no-brainer. The role of religion and spirituality is to shut up, take a knee, and do whatever System health tells them to do.  


It’s the fifth time the Vatican’s culture ministry has teamed up with the Cura Foundation to mount a conference that aims to pair advances in science and technology with ideas about how to deliver them effectively, efficiently and at a lower cost.

Fifth time? How efficient-sounding.

Look, I could do a post like this every single day. That's how utterly ridiculous System Christianity has become.  


“People are very focused on the pandemic. It’s changed our lives in many, many ways. But there are also other areas of our health that are impacted,” said Dr. Robin Smith, founder and president of the Cura Foundation.  

Have you noticed that no one has uttered a peep about Christ, redemption, salvation, heaven, everlasting life, etc. Not a word. 


The aim of the conference, she said, is to put aside political, religious and ideological differences and focus on improving health care around the globe.

That's it. The aim of the conference is ensure all the supposed political, religious, and ideological differences in the world focus on advancing the totalitarian, evilly-aligned System.


“We really want to sort of check all that at the door and say, ‘How can you make a difference? How can we help?’”

Well, helping is really simple. Just turn off your brain, ignore your spiritual intuition, cast aside all doubt, turn your back on God, and  gladly do whatever the godless System asks you to do.

​Moreover, promote everything the godless System does as good, necessary, useful, and moral.

Natch!

"indirectly developed" with aborted baby cells

When I develop software I always "indirectly develop" it by using libraries someone else wrote (e.g. a library that lets me create a PDF with a few calls). Does it mean I didn't use the library? Its "indirect" so I guess I didn't use it at all. Somehow I bet the developers of those libraries would still demand I pay their licencing fees even after hearing that argument.

@ jorgen b - Good observation. Every single word or phrase these people utter is slippery, dishonest, or misleading.

Excellent piece, Frank. Christians have always been supposed to reject "this world". That's more important than ever now. Too many of them today see their religion in the light of the good of this world.

Thanks, William. You have addressed this topic extensively yourself, and your insights have helped me greatly.

These sorts of posts irk and offend many Christians who are under the impression that I derive some sort of sick satisfaction from criticizing churches.

I don't.

I sincerely wish I didn't have to address these kinds of things. In many ways, I feel I don't even have to - things have become that obvious. Yet many still refuse to see what lies in plain sight.

The Church of Don’t Call Us Mormons is sending at least three representatives to this circus, including one of the Twelve (highest level of leadership). Convergence has passed the point of no return.

This reminds me of a story from "The Decameron" where a Jew converts to Christianity reasoning that if the people at the top of the church are trying their hardest to destroy it and it still survives then it must truly be gods chosen religion.

@ Mike Bryant - I get the sense Ivan Karamazov's depiction of the church in the Grand Inquisitor chapter of Dostoevsky's The Brothers Karamazov is probably closer to the truth than this "double negative equals a positive" story from The Decameron.
