>>22211048The church is not an instrument of the state, quite the contrary, the state had to adopt Christianity as it's official religion or otherwise it wasnt gonna last long, because Christianity resonates with the souls of a lot of people and the state couldn't afford to have an unruly populace.

It was the only way to contain the threat.
The church can exist independently of the state/nation, but the state/nation won't last without Christianity, remember thus heathens
