What was the interest rate in the banks of ancient Rome?

>It's true you don't see many goth men. And in fact, they are so alike in voice and appearance, that they are often mistaken for goth women.>And this in turn has given rise to the belief that there are no goth men, and that goths just spring out of Hot Topics!>Which is, of course, ridiculous.

in retrospect, this was a DISASTER for mankind.
>>17092870>it also means no more political autonomy in foreign policy and an extra tax burden.Which is exactly what happened anyway under Athens, Sparta and the subsequent revolving door of hegemonies. If Persia had won, Greece would have jumped straight to what they were in the Roman empire, skipping the next 250 years of civil war.

Why does this president in particular get accused of being a blood drinking child sacrificing illuminati satanist and the epitome of all evil? The people cursing him are all conservative truther types too so his Republican values should be more aligned with theirs yet they seem to despise him the most out of all presidents.

>>17089437Agree Slovenia shouldn't be in Italy, but it was part of Austria for almost 1000 years, and Slovenes are culturally Austrian and the whole country looks like Austria, so it might as well go with Austria into Germany with some sort of protected status for the Slovene language or something.

Could US have became the greatest country in the world without its Judeo-Christian foundation?
Yes, abrahamoids have no moral argument against communism because their moral foundation is the same. Now all their academics is full of militant communists
>>17092885It was founded by deists free masons who'd rather get drunk and argue about whatever over going to church and listening to a preacher.
>>17092933These “academics” literally hate Christianity and are seeking to destroy it in the West dipshit
>>17092957I said same moral foundation. Both are deeply rooted in altruism, where the indicidual's goal is to serve the group he is part of. Whether that's religious or "the workers party" is an important difference to you, not to me.

It is the year 732 AD, and the Umayyad Caliphate has reached its greatest extent, becoming the largest state in history until the rise of the Mongol Empire nearly five centuries later!1) The secret Abbasid movement in Kufa is under the leadership of Muhammad ibn Ali al-Abbasi, after Abdullah ibn Muhammad ibn al-Hanafiyyah informed him of the call, thus transferring the movement's leadership from the Alawite house to the Abbasid house.2) The Eastern Roman Empire continues to decline after a series of defeats by Islamic states, though it managed to withstand two Umayyad sieges of the capital, Constantinople.3) The Lombard Kingdom controls most of the Italian Peninsula and has converted from Arianism to Catholicism.Its vassals include: the Duchy of Benevento and the Duchy of Spoleto.4) The Avar Khaganate has seen its influence wane in Central Europe, with the rise of the First Bulgarian Empire in Eastern Europe.

Is Christmas really pagan?
>>17091779https://t.me/s/Catholicaesthetic/3141heres a telegram tradcath memerhttps://digitalmissioners.com/2019/12/the-christmas-tree/heres some dubious website that offers no source>https://opcypsupport.arlingtondiocese.org/support/solutions/articles/44002497954-st-boniface-and-the-christmas-treeand heres another dubious website that again, offers no source>>17091770anon, why would saint boniface, a christian priest, be referencing old norse deities and mythical locations? if the quote is real, then an original version of the quote exists in whatever language it was first written in, and would reference them by regional names, which would vary from tribe to tribe in germany. we arent even sure if some of those things existed in germanic mythology. there is very little evidence for a cult of baldur being present in germany save some charms and chants that *might* be referencing his name based on linguistic similarities. we similarly have very little evidence for any concept of niflheim in germanic mythology; we dont even know what the germans called niflheim if such a concept existed within their cosmology, because there are no written texts about it within the germanic corpus. that is how I know that quote is fake as shit. he didnt say any of that crap, and they didnt sacrifice a child at donnars oak. catholics spin more lies as the ages go on it seems; the desperation of their dying church seems to drive them to such duplicity. picrel is the altar of the cathedral of saint john the divine in new york; which houses one of the finest shrines to saint boniface in america. truly fitting.
>>17091828Actually, I've got you beat:https://mtncatholic.wordpress.com/2014/12/23/thor-stboniface-and-the-origin-of-the-christmas-tree/He citeshttp://www.holyspiritinteractive.net/columns/williamsaunders/straightanswers/68.asp (dead)https://web.archive.org/web/20120229050858/http://www.holyspiritinteractive.net/columns/williamsaunders/straightanswers/68.aspHere we go, this is it.He doesn't have a source, he's just making shit up. He says that Christmas Trees came about because Boniface told the Frisians to take fir trees into their houses to decorate instead of using oak trees (which is actually pretty funny because the Medieval church condemned the decorating of trees period and the entire reason that the tree is indoors in the first place is because publicly decorating trees at Yule was a crime).>why would saint boniface, a christian priest, be referencing old norse deities...Just to add to what you're saying: "Baldr" is the nominative singular of the word "bald-", which is the Old Norse cognate with the modern English "bold". That "-r" is the nominative singular morphological inflection, and the shift from "-az" to "-r" is unique to Old Norse. Boniface was executed for his crimes in Frisia, and at the time the Frisian cognate of the word "bold" was... "bold". The Norse word "Freyja" just means "lady", and it's cognate with the English "free" and the Old Frisian "frowe". The lack of attestation of her by that name outside of Scandinavia is actually a mythological point of novelty, so if this quote were legit it would be a huge deal and the earliest source wouldn't be a Catholic blog from 2014. I'm not going to both getting into the bit about Thor and Odin.
>>17091570interesting how you don't mention the birth of sol invictis againhow about you tell us what date that was celebrated on?
>>17091161Keep in mind that the west uses the gregorian calendar now, which has the winter solstice as a set date around 20-22 of december forever. But that wasn't the case before the 16th century, so the julian calendar has the solstice moving every century:>0 AD - December 22>500 - December 19>1000 - December 15>1300 - December 13>1500 - December 12>2000 - December 8Which makes overlapping with the 25th impossible - pagans would still track the sun and look for equinox, while your christian date would be fixed from counting +365 days. Unless you want to make the argument that Christianity started in the 16th century...
>>17092641sol invictis was created after Christmas.
How would history be different if another species of homo survived somewhere and was discovered by explorers?
