The bigger issue is that people think he was a great thinker lmao
Right up there with people who believe Aquinas wasn't a brainlet
It has less to do with Augustine per se, and more with the theological trend of speculation he initiated.
John S. Romanides one of the greatest modern Orthodox theologians, even though he is biased against Catholicism, outlines the conflict very well:

1. He lived in the roman empire
2. he was the most influential figure to Christianity which developed exclusively in Europe,essentially
what a stupid question
Because the whole area before islam became a thing was considered western.
Fuck off reddit, St. Augstine is my Saint.
This
Does anyone else read his work and other "theology" and just think it's the most retarded shit they've ever read? How the fuck do you go from greek philosophy to this spooked trash?
No because I'm white and I believe in Christ.
Yes
How is you being white is relevant?
t. Brainlet
The "West" with Augustine is relating to Western Christian tradition.
Atheists are on par with mixed skin mixers who support the zionist plot to corrupt the west.
The term west includes italy which is black africans
White is a loaded term even the alt right cannot define with any consistency
>he thinks "western" is a racial designation

You don't actually believe in that shit.
But I do.
He was a Roman citizen which is why he is considered Western.

Hello /leftypol/, you're on the wrong chan AND wrong board.
Because at this time Arabs had not colonised the Maghreb yet.
You're a moron for using "western" "white" and "european" in the same sentence. Your skin colour or the continent you live in does not determine what you're capable of or what you're worth.
its almost as if your contributions are more important than your race.
besides, many north africans and middle-easterners for that matter dont look that different from swarthy south euros/meds.

There's some overlap, but north africans greatly exaggerate. Maghrebian berbers are browner than berberists try to have people believe.
Spamming pictures of Zidane won't change that reality.
I guess because Christianity is associated with the West, even though there are Christians found in every continent.
