Why do people think Islam is some sort of macho tough guy religion?
Our prophet wasn't some super chad. He was a gentle and sensitive man who expressed his emotions readily and he was introverted and modest. And he said that good manners was one of the most important parts of Islam.
He helped out with the housework of his wives and cooked and cleaned for them as well.
He never hit children or said a rude word to anyone.
He even spared the entirety of the Mecca when he conquered it bloodlessly.
And no just because he fought others who were trying to kill him and his people doesn't mean he was some sort of evil alpha male type.

Southern Jews of the antebellum era (and well into the early modern era before NY/NJ Jews flooded South Florida in the 60s-80s) were almost all Sephardic Jews from the Netherlands/UK. They were also generally more well-off, having the means to move to the US not to do wage labor but to own property in an area where they had greater freedom to do that.

"Ellis Island Jews" were almost exclusively Ashkenazi Jews from central/eastern Europe, with rapidly increasing amounts from the Russian Empire due to the wave of pogroms that only accelerated after Alexander II's assassination. They were poor, now-landless peasants and city dwellers, of course they were attracted to causes that benefited them. There is also a sharp class/ethnic divide at the time between "old stock" Jews of primarily Dutch/British Sephardic origin in the South, and German Ashkenazi origin in the north, and the newly arrived austro-hungarian, russian and romanian jews.

Despite the implications, "Old Stock" here does not mean having spent a long time in the US, but simply the class differences and social networks that these Jews fell in. For example, the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire emerged out of labor disputes between the owners (who were immigrant German Ashkenazi) and the predominantly immigrant Austro-Hungarian/Russian Ashkenazi workforce.
>>
Most Southern Jews were German Ashkenazis, there was an absolutely inconsequential number of Sephardics in the US.
>>
>>16594813
Early US Jews were mainly Sephardics who migrated as far back as the colonial period and were well established as part of the American elite.
Those who immigrated through Ellis Island were mainly Ashkenazi of poor/working class backgrounds.
Yes, they were worlds apart.

>>16594813
Ellis Island Jews were Ashkenazi
Southern Jews were Sephardi

Did Judas go to hell, even though he was necessary for God's plan?

>>16591587
The reason Judas went to hell isn't because he betrayed Jesus, which is the foolish classical tragic poeticism that Renaissance humanists obsessed over in their worship of the martial ideals of the Roman Empire, it is because he despaired of salvation, a form of pride; he believed the magnitude of his sin to be so infinitely great, that not even God - whom he believed Jesus to be - could forgive it, and thus hanged himself rather than humble himself.

>Britain and France had a choice to remain neutral, they decided to jump on the first chance they got to justify a war against Germany.
Germany had a choice to remain neutral as well, but they decided to invade white christian that was a bulwark against communism, knowing it will trigger war with Poland's allies.
Poland, Britain and France were sovereign states and they could have each other international relations as they pleased, especially a defensive alliance.

>Britain and France had no right to tell Germany what it can and can not do with Poland.
Germany had no right to invade Poland, because they had the non-aggression pact.

Moreover, Germany invaded Poland without declaration of war. Germany was truly a backstabbing state ruled by bloody bastard.

Hitler was claiming Alsace–Lorraine to be rightful German clay, so the French and the British had a moral right to defend themselves and Poland against Germany.
In terms of international policy NS-Germany was a rabid dog that had to be put down.

I struggle to find a coherent philosophy for American pagan practice. Do American pagans worship Native American gods, since they're the deities of the land? Or do they worship Odin because their ancestors did, ignoring all Native American practices? Is it possible to worship Native gods and Norse gods at the same time?

Good needs Evil to be made.
The Greater the Evil the Greater the Good.
The World pre-judgment day is the process of creating numerous righteous Souls filled with Good yet remaining Free in order to fill the entire Earth with them
Once complete, Evil can be silenced once and for all
Eden with Adam and Eve failed because they were free but they lacked Good, they were prototypes

Judaism/Christianity is a fusion of Hellenic paganism and Zoroastrianism.

Hellenism had a place afterlife (the dead go to the underworld aka Hades where they are punished or rewarded for their actions in life), Zoroastrianism had an escathological afterlife (there will once be an apocalypse where Earth is remade into a paradise and the dead will come back to life to live there).

Parts of the Bible that are more Hellenic influenced talk about Hades, parts that are more Zoroastrian influenced talk about resurrection after the apocalypse. Revelation for examle is extremely similar to the Zoroastrian apocalypse prohecy.

No they don't. LaVeyan satanists don't worship Satan it's just edgy objectivism. Now, to save you the typing: Yes, Objectivism was created by a Russian Jew and is comically Jewish as an ideology, that's not the point. Mind you, the thing still depends on christianity, so in that sense it is basically parasitic as an ideology.

The people who were being called satanic throughout history were either jews, protestants, or gnostics.

/his/torians, I need your help to solve these questions I have....

1) What's the difference between Soul and Form (in general they are used as partial synonyms by some authors)?
2) What's the difference between Form and Essence (in some texts, authors use them as synonyms)?
3) How is it possible for prima materia to be a first form contained in the divine essence if prima materia and form itself are two separated "things"?
4) How is it possible for angels (and souls) to be things without matter (pure forms) when heaven is described as a place composed, if not of matter, of something similar to matter? What kind of existence is this? Are they equal in nature to ideas?
5) How is it that the essence of matter is potentiality and the essence of soul is actuality if only things in themselves have essence (according to Aristotle)?
6) For Aristotle, the essence was represented exclusively by the form. Why, for Saint Thomas, does the essence of contingent beings also include matter?
7) If the "idea" of matter was in the mind of God in the beginning, wouldn't this make matter a substance with its own ontological status?
8) Why is the prima materia a concrete thing instead of a created thing?
