Archival is pointless

why are we archiving that which will soon burn along with the world?

I used to be for raw archival, but then I struggled with the fact that the Bible commands against sexual sin, including lust. So i realized i was advocating to preserve and make more easily available images directly against God. I have to say now instead, that i don't want to preserve images of sin, like lust.

But also, the Bible is strong against magic, divination, casting spells, and communicating with spirits. It compares magic to adultery against God, and compares rebellion in general to be as the sin of witchcraft.

So, is it not also the case, that the Bible says casting spells is a sin, and so why are Christians who are trying to follow the Bible participating with images of characters casting spells? Why do things like snowponies get popular but then images get made of them interacting with tribal spirits, and it seems cool and everyone just enjoys it without thinking of it more? these things we are ignoring are abominations to God. Jesus said to be perfect as the Father is perfect.

For non-Christians, I know you don't choose to follow the Bible, so I'm not arguing this at you directly. For non-Christians what needs to be said is that, for all sin in general, Jesus said that if we do not repent, then we will all perish. if we don't believe in Him then we will die in our sins, but whoever believes in Him will live even if he dies.

for Christians, I ask you, why do we love this thing of the world, which God calls an abomination? and which 1 John says do not love, since it is a thing in the world and a desire of the eyes, but is not from the Father, and all the desires and things in the world will be destroyed soon?

So why should we hold onto that which the Father abhors?

For me I've still wanted to be a part of the pony community, so i thought to get around it by drawing anonfilly only, not drawing cutiemarks since they are magic, drawing only OCs, etc. it's bandaid fixes really

Jesus called us to become His disciples, but said it will cost our entire lives to do so. I'm pretty sure that to fulfill all He says in the gospels, it requires losing friends, family, losing our comfy place in the pony community, even giving up all our own possessions (literally spoken by Jesus as a requirement before even being able to become a disciple, in Luke 14:33)

We as Christians are supposed to live in the same way as Jesus did (1 John 2:6). So, we are commanded to take up our own crosses daily and follow Him. We are supposed to ourselves go out into every nation and preach the gospel of the kingdom of heaven, the words directly He said to preach in the 4 gospels.

He said in the great commission in Mark to go make more disciples, and that the miracles of healing the sick, raising the dead, casting out demons, etc. will follow those who believe. So, we are supposed to be seeking to obey these things and getting to that point of actually working the harvest and doing these things daily, not as random miracles.

Jesus taught the disciples that when you enter a city, heal all who are sick there and preach the gospel, then move on. He said in the great commission in Mark to make new disciples of all nations, "teaching them to keep all I taught you". So we too are supposed to seek Him for the faith to act like the disciples did and go out on faith to do the work of the harvest, to go out and not put down roots building ministries and building our lives, but to go to places on faith without needing to take money, then preach and heal there, and move on to the next place

So, I'm still working on this myself, but i have to say it because we are led to believe that Christianity allows us to go to church and abstain from a few sins and then otherwise live completely normal, when Jesus said it actually costs our whole lives, and that we will inherit and rule in the kingdom of heaven if we do it.

Because I like having movies, books and game PDFs even when the corporate overlords try to wipe them. I like having a community and fandom, and having media materials to support said communities.

You are posting on a pony porn distribution hub. Your words fall on deaf ears.

It's fiction. Depicting magic in fiction isn't using magic irl.
>But also, the Bible is strong against magic, divination, casting spells, and communicating with spirits. It compares magic to adultery against God, and compares rebellion in general to be as the sin of witchcraft.
It says that because magic isn't real, and isn't part of Christian cosmology.

Pretty cool challenge.

I thought about it too. About this crazy numbers, tens of thousands ponies saved through 15 years. 99.9% of them can be found on boorus, but I still keep them. Some because of sympathy, some because of habit, but mostly because of respect. Anon spend hours creating a image, how can I show such disrespect and erase pony just for some free megabytes? I do not have any enmity to this anon, so I will keep copy of his work just in case of collapse. Author can be killed, but his ponies will survive as long as someone keeps copy of them.

practicing magic is a real sin people do today. Most Christians would agree that watching a show where the characters' central focus is committing explicit adultery wouldn't be ok, so why is it okay for this sin? In both cases it's fiction, but it's still messed up in God's eyes

I used to watch the show. I don't think it's something Christians should cling to like I used to. I don't think it's good for Christians to watch/play media based on (even fictional) magic.

>not having to do with archival
the point is, all things in this world, whether we archive them or not, are soon to burn. So we can either cling to them and burn with them, or we can reject the things of this world and cling to the gospel, and live past the scheduled end.

When Jesus met Peter and his brother, they was trying to catch fish. Jesus said "follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men". They then walked away from the boat, the equipment, their family, everything and became disciples of Jesus

So for us who spend time archiving seriously, wouldn't He say "follow me, and I will teach you how to find and preserve men". As in, how to give them the gospel so they are archived for God, and won't be destroyed. Scripture says God doesn't want even the wicked to perish, but that they would turn from wickedness and to do righteousness. God wants us to spend our lives for His kingdom, archiving people for Him since He treasures them.

A lot of people larp about doing magic, without any tangible results.

Because adultery is real. Magic is not.

What an ugly, nihilistic worldview.
By that logic, we may as well eat our children, dumb nuclear waste in waterways, and invite billions of shitskins into white countries, because preserving things for the next generation doesn't matter at all.

>magic isnt real so its ok
the act of casting a spell is a sin, whether people believe it does anything or not. And in the show they cast spells. I don't get a difference based on if we believe it actually causes things or not irl. They also communicate with spirits in the show, which is listed as a sin in the same passage against other magic. And in that sin King Saul actually pulled it off irl when he consulted the witch of Endor who was a medium and called up Samuel (who was dead) to talk to.

>people just larp about magic
Even if magic doesn't do anything, the act of trying to do magic is still a sin. Jesus said that if you look at a woman with lust, you committed adultery in your heart with her already. So if you choose to practice things God hates, what difference is there if it works or not? The issue is choosing to sin, not if it performs functionally

>its nihilistic, you're saying don't take care of anything
one of Jesus' followers asked to be given leave to first go bury his father. Jesus told him "Follow Me, and let the dead bury their own dead."

So this argument doesn't apply really. People still held a proper and healthy funeral for the dead father. Society still functioned. The problem is, the people were not seeking eternal things, so even in doing those healthy things they are on the path of destruction. For the man asking Jesus, Jesus said follow Me instead.

Jesus said the way is constricted which leads to life, and few find it. but the way is broad which leads to destruction, and many enter through it. So what risk is there of society collapsing by us following what Jesus said to do? Sadly, He said very few will actually do it.

Jesus said the end will be just like in the days of Noah. People will be eating and drinking, getting married, building, etc. etc. And suddenly the end will come and it will be too late.

So, in general taking care of human society and future needs is healthy. The issue here is Jesus said it's not gonna last, so follow Him now and stop caring about those things (even the healthy things like caring about family). Drop everything and follow Him. Store up treasure eternally now. Seek the kingdom of heaven first and God's righteousness and the physical needs will be added to you.

He said count the cost before trying to be His disciple, that if a man builds a tower, he doesn't start without counting if he can afford to finish it, or else everyone will mock him when he starts and can't finish. Or a king with 10,000 calculates to see if he can win the battle against the king with 20,000 men before entering the battle, or else while they are still far away from each other he sends a delegation of peace. "so then, no one can become my disciple who does not give up all his own possessions"

And He said "He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me. He who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for My sake will find it."

So if family gets in the way of the gospel you're supposed to choose the gospel. Same if anything else in life gets in the way.

So, the choice is to go out to work the Father's harvest or not, to live the same way Jesus did or not. If we don't, then aren't we choosing to go back to earthly desires (even healthy ones like family) as higher priority?

With ponies, the issue is most directly the sins of magic, idolatry, and lust. But also in all things of media, it's going to burn anyway, so it is really pointless to keep engrossed in it generally. But ultimately the issue is, clinging to it risks being unable to fulfill what Jesus commanded us to do, being unable to let go of things and actually go do the work.

practicing magic is a mistake and a distraction, a sin which leads to eternal death, like all other sin. The only way to survive judgement day is to believe in Jesus for forgiveness of sin. He said whoever believes in Him will live even if they die. And He said to repent and stop sinning now

Nobody is casting actual magic, much less magical unicorns.

Sure, but not the act of telling fictitious stories.

Archiving pony cartoons is not practicing magic.

That's why we archive.

We don't archive for our own sake, we archive so that other people will have books to read and culture to enjoy. It is an act of charity to preserve media.

Correct that the telling of fictional stories isn't a sin to my knowledge. In my opinion it is strange to keep stuff around that depicts sin, when it's things God called an abomination. The act itself of casting a spell is sin, and the ponies in MLP do it all the time. Feels like an excuse to keep it around based on it being comfy or cool rather than on it being ok and harmless, when it is things which God says offends Him. Why do they practice divination (the zecora potion scene) and communicate with spirits (the tree in the later seasons, among other spirits in FiM and EQG)?

I could keep arguing about why it's sus to keep shows like MLP around if you're a Christian, but ultimately I think the argument is moot, because in carrying out all the actions Jesus commanded, wouldn't this issue be dealt with without needing to make a direct decision on it? As in, it is so low priority that wouldn't it fall out of consideration at some point, where the need to serve the gospel would take precedence over the desire to stay involved in the fandom?

As for what you said about why we archive, that's fine for an earthly reason of why to do it. I'm saying Jesus said it is worthless eternally to do it, and also if we do not repent in general and believe in Him, we will die in our sin. If you don't believe, then I'm not trying to convince you about archival or not. if you don't believe, then I'm not trying to convince you about watching the show or not. In that case I'm saying that Jesus said we are all in real danger unless we repent and believe in Him.

If you do believe, then I'm saying there's instructions Jesus spoke which are written in the 4 gospels, which we are expected to pursue and do. So go read it yourself and do those things

Jesus said "Truly, truly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep. All who came before Me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them. I am the door; if anyone enters through Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture. The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly."

And "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me."

They use spells and name it 'spells', but content and context of this term is totally different. Magic in Equestria looks like natural force, similar to electromagnetism for humans. Not method of connection with spirits or infernal beings, but just force of nature. I think no one nowadays use term 'spell' in biblical context: fantasy literature, board games and video games totally changed meaning of this word. Games make witchcraft primitive, predictable and not infernal at all. So, ponies just make their final hoofprint on the burial of mystical sorcery.

>>393987
this is pretty absurd. they cast spells. they practice divination. they have enchanted artifacts. they communicate with spirits.

it's not just something silly like a superhero having an unexplained superpower, it's literally depicting the acts of practicing witchcraft and spiritism, even some things in the same way it is practiced irl in the past and today. It doesn't matter if you think it's made up, the issue is the act of practicing it is a sin, and it is continuously done in FiM and arguably even worse or more concentrated in EQG

in rainbow rocks they use the magic of feeling friendship inside you to push the magic from the spirits away to beat them. that whole situation is huge sin. in EQG they literally transform into demon forms through magic and then get "reformed" to only use the magic in a "good" way now.

there is no good and evil magic. it is all evil and it is all sin. it is all rebellion. i don't get why it's ok to pretend to practice it either

Jesus didn't come for the healthy, He came for those who are sick, to seek and save the lost. All the stuff we do to try to feel satisfied, whether sin or just entertainment stuff or seeking money, it never feels enough. it's never satisfying.

As Jesus said "Everyone who drinks of this water will thirst again; but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him shall never thirst; but the water that I will give him will become in him a well of water springing up to eternal life."

sin and even normal things of this world can't satisfy you. Jesus said "I am the bread of life; he who comes to Me will not hunger, and he who believes in Me will never thirst." Jesus is able to give you that which fulfills you, without the need to do continuous things to distract yourself from life. He said those things are pointless and to store up treasure in heaven instead, that will last past death. He said we have to turn away from sin or we all will perish. But whoever believes in Him will have eternal life

Jesus preached "repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand". He described inheriting the kingdom, not just mere survival and entering. He said don't store up treasure on earth, which gets stolen and breaks down, but store up treasures in heaven, where it can't be stolen or break down. He described those who are faithful now as inheriting in the kingdom of heaven, being set to rule over much. So try to obey His instructions now as best as possible and you will be rewarded for it.

But when you do all that He asked, He said you are to say "I am an unworthy slave, I only did that which I ought to have done"

God already spoke on this, our lives are not accident, and there is specific purpose we are instructed to do. We must repent and believe in Jesus, or we will perish. Jesus said He is the only way to the Father. The forgiveness for sinners is available when you believe, and Jesus says we must repent from sin. There is not forgiveness for unbelievers who die, it is only judgement day, where by default all of us have sinned and will fail that day. He cares that people obey His instructions, He made it mandatory to go through Jesus to be saved.

>>394113
I don't know much about the Catholic Bible, but we have solid scholarship on the new testament going back to around 200AD when it was originally written. There's a list of which verses have a difference between a subset of finds. Most of those are a spelling error, a word order change which doesn't affect the grammar, or adding/omitting a word which doesn't change the meaning. There's only a couple times where an entire phrase or verse itself is in question, and the list gives the percentage of finds both appears in (as in, it indicates which is the higher likelyhood choice of original).

So, we have Greek that predates the Catholic church stuff. Whether they edited anything or made translation errors or not, it's moot, because we have original documents which agree in the Greek itself, and the ancient Greek language itself used is well understood by scholars and not mysterious in translation today.

We have a lot of archeological evidence supporting that the old testament didn't change either.

If you doubt a translation, you can search a verse and use "interlinear" in the query and it will pull up sites with the original Hebrew/Greek alongside the literal English words, and you can click on numbers above the words to see the definition and other uses of that original word throughout the Bible.

I don't know much about the Armenian or Ethiopian Bibles

archival is pointless if the servers and your hard drives are going to burn soon anyway. you can't take it with you.

I'm saying in general, we are going to burn too with all the things in this world unless we repent and believe in Jesus

and if you do listen to Jesus, He said don't store up treasure on earth, but in heaven instead so it will last. so the focus on archival is inefficient instead of focusing on doing the things Jesus actually said to do, which He said there is a reward for

some armanis don't believe he died or killed by rome , there is a saying that some very polluted person has been mistakenly executed by romans
We don't go to a priest and we don't confess to a total stranger , God is in our heart and he can hear us pretty well
God said he does not need prayers , in fact they are the one who need him
and he cares about all of his creations equally , but he likes his believers even more
we also do not believe a judas even existed , jude jewd jew that is a made up name like if someone's name was muslima and he was also muslim
priest just changed the verses for more power
drinking too much alcohol is a sin
Gamblin is a sin , there is a part where Yashua heavily spoke against it
praying can be done at home but still people prefer to go to church
most important
we do not have old testament at all , that is just torah and it has nothing to do with our book
jews changed their book with sinful things and lies for being able to sin
they did not have given the earth , God does not just forgive em cause they are jewish , and they will go to hell for eternity
++
Yashua clearly was sent as a saviour to save judaism from their sinfulness but they did not even listened to him at all
they love money and they pray for their lust for life instead of thinking about the other world

till salvation comes
archival saves us and can help the future to remember our mistakes and discoveries
not caring about life cause it would be end soon is a sin
God says he cares about your well being and you should care about your health
also
he cares about humanity to progress
that is why he ordered us to do nice things
++
that is one of the thing i hate about western christianity
not all of it has to be just REPENT AND BELIEVE AND DIE
no it is about acting like a human being too and stay away from wrong doings

>also no not really, we only need to believe in God , stay away from sins and bad behaviour such as thieving , killing , lust etc not just repenting to God
Jesus said it is required to repent and to believe in Him specifically for forgiveness of sin. Yes we should repent and stop doing those sins you listed. but without faith in Jesus too we can't make it. He said He is the only way to the Father

Judas is just a repeat of the name Judah, which is what Jew is derived from. A lot of Jews in that time used repeated names from the patriarchs for their children

Drinking too much alchohol is against proverbs and is said not to do in the epistles. it is not a sin itself, however, because sin is defined in the law of Moses, which does not say getting drunk is a sin, and it also says don't add to or take away from the law. So it's said that it's unwise to get drunk, but it's not a sin itself.

I'm not familiar with any passage where God in the old testament or Jesus in the gospels spoke on gambling. just that "pay what you vow"

Concerning the old testament, Jesus said the law and the prophets are in effect until heaven and earth pass away.

it's not just repent and believe and die. it's repent and believe, and go out to do the work of the harvest. spend your life doing the work of the gospel. I'm saying there's things Jesus said to start doing which are more important than archiving or anything else

>>394122
I'm not arguing that archival is bad normally. I'm saying Jesus said it's worthless eternally, and we should instead spend our lives for things which are worthwhile eternally, which have a reward past this life. Enjoying content is so short and it's going to all burn up soon

"Normally" is the only way we do archival.

It maintaining libraries so that children have books to read growing up isn't an eternal duty, then I don't know what is.
>Enjoying content is so short and it's going to all burn up soon

It has already been prophesied; it's not divination to know the scripture says the world will burn, and everything in it will be destroyed. Confused how you're even claiming that.

My point isn't "abstain from all things in life and live closed-in and sterile"
My point is what Jesus said, repent and believe in Him for forgiveness of sin so you can survive judgement day. Then He said to take up your cross and follow Him, to go out into the whole world and preach the gospel too. It's a time for intentional labor not a time for relaxed comfort.

One thing Jesus talked about in the last days, is that when the Son of Man returns, it will be as obvious as when lightning flashes in the sky from the east to the west. He said on that night, if you are on the roof, do not go back into your house to grab possessions. If you are in the field, do not try to go back to your house. He said "remember Lot's wife". Whoever tries to preserve their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for His sake will find it.

So there will come a point where we will all have to choose that drastically. So be ready and don't let possessions or communities or family be more important than obeying Jesus.

For today, I'm saying it is worthless eternally to spend time distracted in entertainment. It's fun but there's no value. There's eternal value in obeying Jesus' instructions, including going out and preaching the gospel everywhere. That brings souls into God's kingdom, which is His desire. Jesus said we will be rewarded for being faithful in doing these little instructions now.

Archiving doesn't take very long.
I will not allow Jews and corporations to erase my culture. I will leave something for the next generation, because I am not a self-serving boomer.

If you are content with your people and your culture being eradicated and your children being functionally illiterate, then woe be unto you. Don't come here telling us to abandon righteous efforts preserving our hobbies because

It you care so much about only being Christian to the detriment of preserving culture for posterity, disconnect your Internet immediately, abandon all worldly possessions, and spend the rest of your life in prayer as an ascetic monk. If you won't do that, nobody is going to take you seriously because you're soapboxing on a Nazi horsefucker forum about why we should allow Jews to steal our books and erase our culture.

Bible doesn't teach to do that.

Jesus did say something tangential though. He said "there are eunuchs who were born that way, there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men, and there are eunuchs who made themselves that way for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. let him who can accept it, accept it"

To my understanding that means, to some people it is given to live without getting married (not as castrating themselves physically). And the point would be to spend more focus on serving God. Paul talked about it similarly, that the unmarried have undivided focus for God, but married people have the obligation to also focus on and please their spouse, so it's not as efficient. Paul said he thought it better for people to do like him and not get married, to focus on the work of the gospel. but he said that because of the difficulty of the passion, "it is better to marry than to burn"

It is possible to stay chaste before marriage btw. Even after decades of porn use. Jesus said if we ask anything in His name, He will do it. And He said don't lose heart, but ask the Father every day and He will act in your case.

So, if you are single and it feels impossible to not lust, you can pray, telling God that you want to obey and not lust, but that it feels impossible and you don't know how. Or that you want to choose that but it feels impossible to want to choose. You can ask Him to give you the ability to stop doing it and to stop feeling the infinite urge to do it. It's possible to live without lust affecting you at all even in the presence of temptation. Jesus said ask it in His name.

And don't lose heart. Jesus said it's supposed to happen immediately if we have enough faith. Jesus also said expect the Father to answer quickly when you keep persisting in prayer. But if it seems to draw out, don't lose heart, but keep asking, and it eventually has to happen. It's impossible for Jesus' words to fail

If you have issues with it seeming to take a long time to receive what you pray for, why not ask the Father to fix that too? Like, ask Him to make you able to pray and believe instantly instead of it taking a long time.

The disciples at first couldn't cast out a demon despite Jesus giving them the authority to do it. Jesus said it was because a lack of faith. But then in the book of Acts, the disciples were walking around the city, instantly healing people and casting out demons at will in faith.

So just because it seems impossible, doesn't mean it has to stay that way. You can pray and ask, and it will be given to you to do the same things the apostles did.

Jesus said to make more disciples, and that those signs will follow those who believe.

If you take it seriously and want to get to that point, note that the disciples were taught to live a very specific lifestyle, to give up all possessions, to go out to cities in a certain way, to preach and heal a certain way, etc. So count the cost if you really want to do just like they did, because I don't think we get a free pass to get part while ignoring how Jesus and the apostles lived

And at the same time, the limit is faith, so it's possible to be given miraculous things from God in prayer even now, if you believe and keep seeking and asking for it. Jesus said whoever seeks will find, whoever asks receives, and whoever knocks, it will be open to them.

God has healed me of migraines, general sicknesses, pains in my feet, sores, and He set me free from lust just like He said He would. I didn't deserve those things. It's a miracle that He gave me the faith to even ask for those things. He gets all the credit for it

tbh the reason i mentioned archival at all was an excuse for the rest of the discussion. all cultures are all going to be eradicated one day though anyway, except for the kingdom of heaven, which will endure forever.

living as an ascetic monk is doing some parts of Jesus' instructions, like selling your possessions and giving to the poor. but staying as a monk in a monastery or whatever is neglecting the rest of the instructions. Jesus sent the disciples out to go preach to all creation. To go into cities and places and preach everywhere, healing the sick and casting out demons. And then move on to the next place. Not stay holed up in a comfy cave in purity or whatever. Supposed to expend our lives for the gospel's sake

there are some people like the old circuit rider preachers in America who were close to this, where they rode a horse throughout the countryside, staying temporarily in homes and eating what people gave them, while preaching.

And there are a few people in American history around that time which followed what they knew of Jesus' instructions even when it got them kicked out of denominations, and they walked through the wilderness woods preaching and making disciples of some of the natives and settlers

modern missionaries come close too, some have literally given up their lives trying to share the gospel. it's crazy different in places like North Korea, China, and Islamic countries, where even just being a Christian risks prison or instant death for you and sometimes for your family too.

What are we doing in the west? Where is the same zeal for Christ? Here it's as if we're scared of social stigma and that's enough to silence the gospel, where in other countries even mutilation and death can't stop people from sharing the gospel. Jesus warned against the churches in revelation which were lukewarm or cold, while praised the ones zealous in service.

Jesus said to one of the churches in revelation that they were miserable, poor, blind and naked, and couldn't see it. So He said buy from Him eye salve, clean garments, and gold refined in the fire.

James says trying to be friends with the world is committing adultery against God. that it's double-minded.

supposed to focus on sharing the gospel

So it was bait. You're baitposting for attention. It was a mistake to try to engage you in good faith. You have wasted all of our time.

Then go get a soapbox out of the recycling bin and preach in the middle of town square. Nobody in the history of mankind has ever changed their religious outlook because they read some wall of text in a horse porn autism message board.
