A Paulinist who wears cultural appropriation like a badge of honor

Christians are big time cultural appropriators. ... We have done much more than pinch a few pagan festivals and Christianise them. ... If we were to follow our sensitive compatriots [Paul] is clearly a hegemonic, imperialist Zionist/Christian cultural appropriator.

In I Corinthians 9:19-23 Paul boasts, ‘I have become all things to all people so that by all possible means I might save some.' To the ever sensitive this is nothing less than a deliberate attempt to appropriate the culture of others in order to gain control of their minds and manipulate them. A vicious plot to destroy centuries-old indigenous belief systems and replace them with the beliefs of the powerful. Cultural appropriation of the very worst kind.
