Throughout history Satan has moved to mask Christianity, the faith of Abraham; he has sought to give it a different face even more than he has sought to bring it under persecution and oppression. Thus the Roman Catholics brought in even the most obviously pagan things, such as worshipping statues, yet Roman Catholicism and its offshoots are the face of Christianity in many people's minds. Thus we have Christ depicted as a European. This was seen from the very beginning: archaeology finding pictures of the Messiah as an Ethiopian among Ethiopians, as an Asian among Asians, as a Roman among Romans (a Roman Caesar at that). Every group is either rejecting the Messiah, or altering him to claim he is the same as them: few submit to who he is.
At the very least in the English-speaking culture and those cultures influenced by it, there are two wicked groups constantly at war, which could be called the "upper-classists" and the "lower-classists".
The upper-classists are those who have altered our Messiah and the faith of Abraham into their image: the dainty, the prosaic, the sterile, the genteel, the prim, the passive, the elegant, the vegetarian, the puerile and effeminate.
The lower-classists reject upper-classism, and make exactly the same error as the upper-classists: treating the faith of Abraham as one and the same as upper-classism. Each group is happy to point to the other to prove the point they agree on: that Christianity equals upper-class "elegance".
Satan loves to keep these groups at war, and loves it when someone rejects Christianity thinking they reject the foolishness of upper-classism, as he loves it when someone embraces upper-classism thinking that he embraces Christianity.
This extends into many areas of life, one of which is art. The upper-classist dislikes things that are strange or grim: it isn't "proper" or "elegant". Because they believe "Christianity = upper-classism", therefore they conclude whatever upper-classism dislikes must be intrinsically unchristian and wrong. To this the lower-classists agree, exulting in everything that upper-classists dislike, thinking that by doing so they are attacking Christianity - because, again, they make the same error as upper-classists, the idea that "Christianity = upper-classism". So the upper-classist forever condemns, and even falls into superstitious fear of what is not to their upper-classist taste; the lower-classist mocks and revels, and Satan laughs at the rat-race he has crafted.
The truth is that this whole strife is man-made and Satanically inspired. The answer is to step out of it, leave the lie which both sides hold, and to open one's eyes to the truth: the faith of Abraham has nothing to do with upper-classism, which is not of heaven but of men.
As the blossom need not declare "I am of Yahweh" to glorify him, neither does the thorn. As the blossom glorifies Yahweh by being a blossom, the thorn glorifies Yahweh by being a thorn.
The specific passion and purpose of my life is the application of this in the arts, specifically in the Strange: the grim, the surreal, the gritty. Every night your mind creates the Strange and the surreal in dreams: I believe it is essential to the human spirit, in the image of Yahweh. Forever let the Strange live to the glory of Yahweh, its Maker.
TL;DR: some hate spiders, God likes them, I agree with God.

Awww.... Thank you for spreading the word! ?
Check Aromem's music, they're all good. I like the Psalm 3 which I usually played when I had my communion.

Greek was not an original language. Hebrew and a little aramaic are the original languages. You can tell by the hebraisms and how things were translated in the gospels when a story contained non hebrew words.
The lips of the wise spread knowledge; not so the hearts of fools.
Proverbs 15:7 ESV
Every word of the wise is seeded with truth and wisdom, but the heart of the fool is full of injustice (lawlessness), which comes out into the world with every word.
"The Prophets that have been before me, and before thee in time past, prophesied against many countries, and against great kingdoms, of war, and of plagues, and of pestilence."
