Please explain how you can be an Atheist while never turning into an Egoist.
>>18765587>far too many cyclesDon't think of it as a cycle. Think of it as a spiral. Spiral out. That's why its called spirit not cyclit.
Is it true that I should be virtuous (whatever that means), regardless of my subjective preference?
>>18766089No. You need to know what virtue means, and that requires subjective preference. But the subjective premise is just the point. You need, an argument, wich is your neighbor, to have a valid proof of morality.
>>18766192Where two or three gather in my name, there I am with them.Truth requires a measure of two or three, which is the measure of the water turned into wine.Yes. The void of nihlism has no meaning when all are one. Alone.The light is good. Divide. This is king David.Be fruitful and multiply.Love your neighbor as yourself.
>>18766192This is also why the proof of alcohol is twice the spirit. ;)The miracles are everywhere.
What would it have been like?
>>18764314Wrong. Nuking israel and india would have been better for world peace.
>Hitler dies>Succession struggle probably ends with a slimy Machiavellian like Göring winning and taking over >He's also a degenerate hedonist >Probably just liberalizes the Reich so he can carry on living out his hedonistic lifestyle with minimal concern and actual governing >Industrial society is inescapable so it basically just ends up like present day Bundesrepublik Germany anyways
>>18764274better than Europe today for sure

How did they get to being France's long lost daughter from almost starting a civil war over being drafted to fight for france in wwI?
>>18766020>almost starting a civil war over being drafted to fight for franceThis is literally classic French behaviour tho
>>18766020I guess they consider themselves the true French, and the inhabitant of France just negro-arabian mutts.
>>18766056This, Vichy was last France hope
Why did France, America, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand support the creation of Israel after Jews had murdered hundreds of British servicemen?
>>18766033But Israel in its early years was very much a socialist country?
>>18764480The Soviets were the strongest Israeli supporters vs the British backed Arab powers. France chose to fuck Britain over because the former hadn’t restored them in Syria. America backed Israel on the whims of Truman who wanted Jewish votes, even when Marshal and Kennan begged him not to. Austrailia, NS, Canada followed America’s lead. Really the roots of the complete dissolution of the British Empire and its global influence laid with the Arab-Israeli War.
>>18766095>Austrailia, NS, Canada followed America’s lead.lmao. what a bunch of bitches
>>18766033Except the Soviets were also supporting Israel. Pretty much everyone teamed up to fuck over the British
>>18764480>ukrainian s.s.r. Wait a second, I thought Ukraine was made up
This the human Nervous System (soul) the top part is the brain, it is divided into multiple regions that create the subjective human experience, the back of the brain (among other parts) is responsible for projecting what you "see" (if you take an injury to the back of the brain it will impair your vision. The front part of the brain is associated with logic and coherency (it mostly turns off during sleep). The center parts control your emotions, damage to these regions will actually change your emotional intellect. Damage to the amygdala region has been shown in real life to cause individuals to feel less inhibitions and fear. The top of the brain controls the body, if you manually send electricity through the top of the brain (motor cortex) then test subjects involuntarily move their bodies but they usually feel it was a voluntary action (meaning, free will is an illusion) decisions are made in the motor cortex shortly before the "soul" even realizes it.The bottom of the brain contains memories, and electrical shocks there can resurface memories or create dellusions of recall (deja vu).The sides of the brain project audio, and electric shocks there consistently make people hallucinate noises or music.Injuries to the brain can change your personality or accent, anything about "you" that makes you "you."The tree or nerves below the brain send it signals that it "feels" but the brain itself cannot feel damage, only what it is told by the nerves.The brain relies on ATP to maintain electrical balance, it makes its own ATP with Oxygen from blood. If your oxygen/blood supply is cut off the electricity goes crazy, and the brain permanently fries itself in 5-10 minutes. >"Intelligent design." Lol.

You can't prove God, because God is not an argument. God is the sound premise of good judgement. Good judgement is the ego and the spook made one.
>>18765060Opinion too based for this era
>>18766129So the radio is broken both ways? If there's no way to access the soul, what's the point of treating it as a separate entity?Should we pardon the guy at the excuse of "his radio is broken" whenever he commits a crime?What constitutes a radio breaking and what doesn't?
Why do eyetalians larp as romans when Rome was founded by 2 Turks and the turkish section of rome lasted longer than the eyetalian section?
>>18762807Becos anatolian rapebabies arent romansTurks are just the former roman anatolian towel boys that got raped by real turks that think they are shit for conquering some balkan and arab shitholes
>>18762807Roman's didn't believe that they believed, the she wolf myth, Cicero even writes about trying to rationalize it.
The Trojans were Ionian Greeks
>>18762842You stupid cunt.
>>18765686turks founded romeCeaser was a turkthe turkish half of the empire lasted longer than the western half
>>18765936You fucking take that back scum. My dying father was taken cared of by Filipino nurses who went beyond the call of duty, they didnt need to give him gifts and play him music but they did, meanwhile chink nurses and doctors are heartless and soulless people who only think about money.
Vietnamese are generally not high IQ or high quality, I've seen their posters on /int/ admit they're a shithole and will always be, so no they wouldn't have become the next Taiwan.
Vietnamese are generally high IQ or nice quality, I've seen their posters on /pol/ admit they're a comfy with good shitand will always be, so yes they would've have become the next Taiwan unlike India
i think vietnam itself is already developing towards that so theres no need to wonder whatsoever. probably something like malaysia and not south korea, with both its positive and negative implications

the rise of fascism is good because it increases the amount of contradictions in capitalism hastening its collapse.
>>18762185If fascism is supposed to hasten capitalism's collapse then why was there an economic boom after World War II.
>>18763955The US was basically a social democracy after FDR's reforms.
>>18763962that's social fascism
tf is this schizo thread?
>>18763943Stalinist USSR also insisted it's a democratic country.Capitalists know that socialists/communists are contained and harmless, the only thing bourgeoisie civilization is afraid of is resurhence of fascism.
What events from history do you most wish could have been video recorded? I read a book about Comanches and it described some of the crazy feats and battle formations they performed on horseback, that's something I'd love to be able to see with my own two eyes.
>>18765579the battle of stalingradthe battle of cannaethe fall of constantinoplethe battle of nasebythe diet of worms
>>18765579really any ancient battle, it would be great to see how they actually moved
>>18765579>I read a book about Comanches and it described some of the crazy feats and battle formations they performed on horsebackI’ll like to see the aftermath of the 1840 Linnville raid, where the Comanche hit a Texas port town then rode across the prairie decked out in looted Euro garb. No doubt this inspired Cormac Maccarthy’s famous scene in Blood Meridian.
>>18765579Tenochtitlan it its prime would have been crazy to see, giant pyramids on a manmade island, in a giant salt lake, surrounded by floating farms.

Would Gravettians have mogged Aryans even with a 25,000 year technological gap?They killed so many mammoths that the mammoths went extinct and had so much food that their women could be extremely obese while wandering the frozen steppe.

We may remember that Christ the Lord, upon doing any great or marvellous Cure, put forth the soveraignity of his Will, as when he said to the Leper, I will, be thou clean: And sometimes he put it to those, who, he perceived had Faith in him, saying, What will ye that I should do unto you? And no less was effected for them than they desired the Lord should do for them. These expressions of our Saviour may be a grand Rule for us to follow, and ought well to be regarded by us; for in the Will is the highest Magick, when it is united with the Will of the Highest; when these two Wheels meet in one, they are the swift running Chariot, which nothing can cross or stop, in which the Bridegroom, with his Bride Sophia, ride most triumphantly together over all things, viz. Over Rocks, Mountains and Hills, which are all made a Plain before them, and Seas dryed up. What is able to resist a Will that is united with God’s Will, before which every thing must stoop and bow? which Will, when ever it goes forth, alwayes accomplisheth its Enterprise. Its not a naked Will that wants its Garment of Power, impregnable Almightiness is with it, to pluck up, to plant, to kill, and to make alive; to bind and to loose, to save and destroy [...].Now from the fore-going Rules, we are taught to drown the many VVills, that have been generated from the mixed Essence of the Soul, and to loose them in the Abyssal-Deep, from whence then may spring the Virgin-Will, that never was in bondage to any thing of degenerate Man, but stands free and clear in Conjunction with Almighty Power [...].I know nothing more worthy for the single Eye to look into, and contend for, than the Magia of Faith; which was once delivered unto, and exerted by the Saints of former Generations; and why we should give it for lost now, I see no cause, but should be earnest for the reviving of it, and calling it up from the Dead.—Jane Lead, The Revelation of Revelations, 1683
>>18766023>jewsJews don't believe in the Son of God.
The Father is the original power of all powers, subsisting in, by and from himself; which original power of the Father is most clearly and openly discovered in the Still Eternity, in the highest magnificence, majesty and glory. This supreme power of the Father, is the beginning of all power, and the fullness of all power, filling the heights, depths, and breadth of the Still Eternity: this power of the Father is an eternal unity and simplicity, that is, it is free from all manner of contrariety, divisibility, composition or mixture, as being an uniform, universal, diffusive power, which is nothing else but pure Deity, and further we cannot search into this power of the Father to know what it is, for none knows what pure Deity is, but God himself. It is this paternal power, which fills the Still Eternity throughout, in the appearance of the clearest transparency and brightness.—John Pordage, Theologia Mystica, 1683
How advanced was medieval China compared to Europe at the same time? Would you live there?
Chinkoid dog eaters were never ahead of Europe. The Japanese should have killed more of them. Fuck China
>>18764291>How advanced was medieval China compared to Europe at the same time?Medieval China tended to be more advanced than Europe during the Middle Ages. While we know jackshit about Europe after the Fall of the Western Roman Empire, China has far more records and there was clearly more activity going on. But by the Late Middle Ages Europe recovered and was rapidly advancing and it would be the beginning of the Great Divergence.>Would you live there?I'd rather live in Pre-Columbian Americas in the Middle Ages and not face the swarms of diseases and famines that plagued Eurasia until the 19th century.
Bump
>>18764291Chinks were pretty seriously ahead beginning after the crisis of the 3rd century until the collapse of the Song dynasty. After that roughly on par tech and economy wise. Europe only becomes meaningfully more wealthy and advanced than China around the 16th century. The wealth and tech gap only becomes truly staggering in the 18th century.
Kek at the autists ITT who hyper-focus on the exact definition of the Chinese middle ages. Just fucking answer the question lmao. "Middle Ages" = 500AD - 1500AD
Why were there so many assassination in the late 19th and early 20th centuries?
Karl Margs made them do it o algo
Easy access to dynamite and cheap reliable pistols, spurred on by anarchist “propaganda by deed” and the abusive policies of industrialists and reactionary governments.
>>18765873Guns affordable to even the lowliest of proles, anarchist and communist rhetoric and basically no feds and surveillance around. Our modern surveillance state and gun laws are the elite's reaction to this
>>18766099Don't call them elites, nothing about them is elite. Call them white capitalists or the Epstein class.
>>18766099>>18765938These. Perfect storm of accessible weapons, high inequality, disgruntled plebs, low surveillance/law enforcement, and political radicalism.
How do religious people account for the existence of atheism/atheists? If we are all made in the image of God, why is it that so many people are completely unable to perceive the divine? Why does God go to such lengths to hide himself from so many?I'm hoping for some serious answers.
>>18765599
>>18765596He never said that, though?Atheism is a position on the existance of God or not. That you need ti to be more is no one's problem but your's.
>>18765629All atheists breathe air. That is a true statement despite your definitions.
>>18762570First point: Adam loses the image and everyone born after Adam is born with his image (Adam’s) not God’s – cf. these verses - Gen 1v26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: Gen 1v27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. Gen 5v1 This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him; Gen 5v3 And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, after his image; and called his name Seth: Note the ‘son’ is not made in the likeness of God but in the likeness of Adam (i.e. man). He had a dead spirit. No man is made in the image of God until he is born-again. When a man is born-again, the Bible says that he is… Col 3v10 And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him.Second point (the reason why people are completely unable to perceive the divine):2 Thessalonians 2:10-12. The passage merely states that God gives what a man demands and asks for. If he wants a lie, he gets it. If he will not take light (John 11:10), then light becomes lightning (Matt. 24:27). If he will not accept the truth of God, then he is exposed to a power that God has permitted to exist for the purpose of putting across a lie (John 8:44). If you don't want to believe in God, you are not forced to. However, salvation is a free gift if you are willing to receive it.Jesus Christ is The Lord God in the flesh. He came to Earth in human form, willingly died on the cross as a sinless sacrifice for all the sins of the whole world to save you from eternal hell, the punishment for your sins. He was buried, then rose again from the dead. He now offers complete and permanent spiritual cleansing and eternal life to anyone who trusts Him enough to ask Him for it, instead of trusting their own works to be saved.www.youtube.com/watch?v=_VRT2FFXntc
>>18765102>>I can't defend my position blah blah blahYour cope projection doesn't change the fact all you can do is squawk in generic non rebuttalsLiterally the next line you wrote was:>If you think the truth on this particular issue is simple and easily perceived, then you haven't put any actual thought or research in to it....is so generic and low IQ it's like like you read it off a fortune cookie. ie it's just another mindless non rebuttal. it's clearly a pattern with you
Why were Art Deco and Stalinist the last great Architectural movements?Why did everything become modernist try hard minimalist and post-modern shit tier garbage after that?Why is it that the modern "return" is just to throw up buildings with facades look like they were built in the 18th century, instead of actually working of new evolution of architecture from where Stalinist/Art Deco left off?
>>18764923>>18765004>>18765056The real answer is that starting in the mid-20th century there was more of an emphasis on construction that favored the comfort of building occupants rather than just "looking neat". Enabled by newer understanding of structural and material science which enabled buildings to be more "transparent" to its occupants while still having desirable thermal properties. Broadly speaking, most modern styles fall under these principles, which have come to be known as "structural expressionism"
>>18762074Art deco is modernismModernism =/ Modern Movement =/ post modernT. Architecture student
>>18762074State directed aesthetics and art movements might offend fags. Im serious
>>18762074After the devastation of WW2 people began to look to the future for hope rather than the past. This was compounded by the incredible technological leaps made during tbe cold war. The idea of building upon the past felt suffocating, and people began to want the sleek, futuristic look. Which happened to also be cheaper and lower effort. We're currently feeling the hangover from that era.
>>18765326When normies say modernism or modern they usually mean contemporary stuff
