Implying that things such as Misin tapa undong were voluntary.

They tried doing the same in Japan earlier, destroying Buddhist and Shinto places of worship and replacing them with churches. Fortunately Hideyoshi Toyotomi showed them the door.


Well, apparently enough Koreans were on board to make that happen. You make it seem as if it were Europeans forcing it on the native people, but no, it was Koreans who did it to themselves. Just as it was the Romans who did it to themselves.

Yes, by horribly torturing and murdering his own people.

Not much different from what the Spanish did to the Muslims and Jews in Spain.

Japan should have been militarily occupied by Europe completely when they began crucifying Christians.
I'm not even being ironic.


Not particularly viable.

And besides, some Europeans (the Protestant Dutch) actually helped the Japanese destroy the Catholic Japanese converts.

Then keep them under Catholic occupation. Protestants can keep China.

Of course, Popery has to be dealt with even on the far side of the globe. It was a rational decision on the part of the Dutch :^)

Not that I would approve of such methods of course.

Well, considering Protestants did nothing to help the Japanese at all I guess that's their only choice, eh?

So much for the Christian charity of Protestants :^)

That doesn't sound Christian. Christianity embraces martyrdom and opposes fighting those who persecute you.

Eh, Francis isn't too bad. I consider myself on the traditionalist side more or less and I think he's a decent Pope for the most part.

We have countless monastic patriarchs, was never a problem for us. Dunno what went wrong with the Pope here, saying ridiculous things like calling Europe Christian is "colonialist" (which is bad, even though Catholicism spread primarily through it)

Orthodoxy also spread through colonialism, in Asia through the Ruskies.

And I think the Jesuit criticism is due to the unfortunate fact that they've become rather liberal as a group.

Yeah, it was alien to Rome and Europe in general as well once. Besides, such a nationalist view of religion is pretty garbage.

Considering Europe already dumped one set of nativist pagan beliefs I don't see how Shinto would be successful.

Tbf, Latin mass didn't stop people from speaking the vernacular, so I don't see how that would be "colonialism". Nobody speaks Church Latin as an everyday language.

Although I do agree that Church services should be done in vernacular.
