Why/christ/ ?
I figured that new anons who would come here will inevitably ask why there should be two christian boards on 8chan. A completely legitimate question in my opinion.
Therefore I tried to sum up the happenings that have lead to the founding of /Christ/. I see that this does not have to be the reason why the individual anon is here but it is the reason that this board exists. I also acknowledge that this summary can only describe the event how I experienced them and thus I do not claim that my version here is the only truth. Pls contribute and tell your story if you have experienced it differently.
While I agree that unsourced png/jpeg files are the best argument to prove your point I have provided sources for each picture so that no one has to take my word for anything.
If only a single anon can be convinced to staying here because of this I am more then satisfied. But tbh it was very funny to follow these old conversations anyway.
Best Regards

I haven't read the image yet, but I can already tell you why two boards exist: /christ/ is rougher than /christian/ in terms of content, while nicer in terms of anon-relations (we aren't many so far, so this is arguably easier to manage).
Check our banners, you'd never see them on /christian/ and I think both chans have their place. I'll respond more after I read your piece.

What bothers me a lot is how this mod uses religious terms about chan moderation… Talking about carrying your cross for a ban, and respecting authority and whatnot. I'll make borderline banners here for reasons we all know, but I would feel bad banning someone and saying such a thing.
It's a chan. Mods who insist that their bans must be respected just makes me roll my eyes. It's the Internet, if you can evade a ban, you're not banned anymore, period. It's like the police running after escapees, saying "BUT YOU'RE IN PRISON ANYWAY SO STAY THERE OK?" I just laugh.

This is what really gets my goat: people who rush to judgement without thinking that something could actually be quite good, and I've seen a lot of it on /christian/
I reflexively think it's Christian Moralism at work, but I don't know whether that is true or not.
I'm with Venezuelanon: I've known plenty of Catholics who are brothers/sisters, albeit in their own fashion – and maybe he could have said that – but there IS idolatry in South America and there IS a huge problem with CINOs in South America… saying so is hardly a ban-able offense.

/int/ absolutely has too many rules for a place which was created (and claimed to be) a sanctuary for Freedom, Liberty and the Pursuit of Memes. Rulecuckery isn't objective or a standard, its a relative, naturally occurring phenomenon which destroys boards and follows a pattern.
1.Board gets made for purpose X
2. Slowly builds up posters
3. Popularity rises, culture still flexible and true to purpose
4. Immigrants (among them, rulecucks) arrive, culture begins to change
5. More mods are added, more hands on deck, more bans being handed out
6. Rulecucks begin to dominate the culture, calling for this and that to be banned, Mods respond affirmatively
7. Resistance happens, but Mods side with cucks, schisms and exoduses ensue
8. Board is effectively deviated from intended purpose and succumbs to rulecuckery.
I've seen this over and over and over. Even a Board that is clear in purpose and tries to always do right, may become an echo-chamber when the rulecucks howl, and the Banning flame burns bright.
Don't assume this means every board has to be /int/ or /goodchristian/, it means that I'd prefer boards remain as they were originally meant to be rather than becoming unfriendly, rigid and unproductive places like we've seen before.
