this is actually one reason why christianity was so effective. every third generation is a new millenarian crisis. every generation there's a new antichrist. a constant state of moral panic and moral crisis and historically expedient exploitation and violence. i guess it's white people crack because it engages our moral instincts and overloads them. india and china have 1 billion people each because this end of world holy crusade shit just doesn't appeal to them.
