completely, especially after liberalisms enlightenment philosophers and the rise of rationalism culminating in the french revolution. I'm not denying the western church is very powerful but it's not what it once was. Please watch the video it talks about the rise of evangelical christianity in latam by the cia to further imperialism and how a lot of catholics in latam were actually an active obstacle to imperialism.
I don't use videos for research/education, apologies.
I can read information 10x faster, and that is my preferred means.
Is Catholicism what it once was? Of course not. Is it more powerful than practically any single corporation or other organization? CERTAINLY
The land alone... and that's a real tangible asset. Their treasures? priceless
Ok so we are in agreement?? Because that's what I was saying. I mean I dont know if would say they are more powerful than the US or blackrock but very powerful still
It's difficult to weigh "soft power", so all we can do is look at the results
owns own country check
tax free throughout globe check
A THOUSAND YEARS of millions of acres of stolen land and incalculable wealth and treasures check
Do they own a military? No. But they own key people, in ways that we can never know, and key corporations, more than we can ever measure.
I don't think Blackrock is more powerful, but it's a fun subject to talk about and research (for me)
Thought blackwater was them but can't find anything tbh.
