      addendum: this shit led me into a mind melting deep dive on Theosophy and Anthroposophy, this shit is wild

          Anthroposophy is kind of cool as far as cults go, anyway. Viewing Christianity as the ultimate synthesis of all pre-existing religious contradictions that can be replaced later on by ‘truer’ religions with higher levels of spiritual understanding… idk, kind of a neat idea I guess as far as this kind of silliness goes. I wonder what kept them from embracing Islam as a more advanced synthesis of the Abrahamic faith 🤔 Definiteeely not orientalism and western supremacism.

          Still, a feminist Christian cult wherein many of the members were sent to Nazi concentration camps for being anti-war, it’s interesting. Like the Quakers.
