why do so many racist conspiracy theories and spiritual beliefs trace back to the Seventh-Day Adventist? or is that just the sorta thing where i know about the Seventh-Day Adventist so i actually recognize when i see them in multiple places
AHA, YOU’RE MISTAKING THE SDA FOR THE ACTUAL ROOT CAUSE: THE MILLERITES.
BASICALLY IN THE 1840s IN NEW YORK A BAPTIST PREACHER NAMED WILLIAM MILLER STARTED A MASSIVE RELIGIOUS MOVEMENT THAT CENTERED AROUND HIS PREDICTION THAT THE WORLD WOULD END AND THE RAPTURE WOULD ARRIVE ON MARCH 21 1844
IT DID NOT
SO HE PREDICTED ANOTHER, ON OCTOBER 22 1844,
AND WHEN THE WORLD DIDNT END, HE LOST FACE AND HIS FLOCK FRACTURED. THIS BECAME KNOWN AS THE “GREAT DISAPPOINTMENT“
NOW, MILLER HAD A LOT OF FOLLOWERS, AND WHAT HAPPENED TO THEM VARIED, BUT A WONDERFUL SOUL ON WIKIPEDIA MADE US THIS HANDY CHART:

It’s so fucking weord growing up in a doomsday cult, like recieving orders on what to do when the world ends? Normal. Having a bag packed and ready in case of armageddon? Normal. Feeling scared about everything and everyone you’ve ever known being ripped away from you by fireballs raining down from the sky? Normal fear, though you should feel bad about being scared cause you’re supppsed to look forwards to it. Like wtf is it weird my head is fucked
