>Despises conquistadors for destroying the Aztec and Mayan civilizations simply because they had some scientific and astronomical knowledge.>Completely ignores their constant human sacrifice, slave-based society, and fundamentalist beliefs.Isn't supporting the most technologically advanced civilization the most pro-science stance you can take? Why do some "scientists" place their emotions above progress?
Because science isn't about progress, it's about knowledge for its own sake. A civilization destroyed is knowledge lost, which in the mind of the knowledge absolutist is more of a tragedy than any number of lives they might have brutally ended.
>>16473477science =/= technology technology is detrimental to science as the dependence of the latter on the former eventually turns science from an aesthetic endeavour of bored aristocrats into a bug hive of government rats who sell their souls for grants and sacrifice genuine curiosity for applicability.
>>16473477typical jew
>>16473667bruh he was agnostic
>>16473842Lmfao you have so much to learn
>>16473842>>16474182There is no such a thing as "agnostic". He was an atheist. Simple as.
>>16473842"Bruh" Judaism isn't just a religion, it's a genetic race.
>>16473477He would separate those two things and call it a great tragedy.https://vimeo.com/70473922
>>16474198Considering you don't fulfill the 3 digit IQ requirement for /sci/, /pol/ is 2 boards down there for you, buddy.
>>16474210I was really angry at him when I found out the Hypatia story is all made up.
>>16473477and completely ignoring the fact that aztecs and mayans destroyed all their neighboring civilizations which is how they rose to prominence to begin with. just more reflexive jewish hatred of whites, its part of their dna or something.
>>16473477https://www2.hawaii.edu/~pine/sagan.html#:~:text=It%20is%20true,been%20left%20alone.When did he ever say he despised conquistadores? Here he's just making a point about convergence. Or is it an implication that they could potentially have become like Europeans on their own that makes you rage?
>>16473477>>Completely ignores their constant human sacrifice, slave-based society,Evidence? (That it wasn't only of criminals/prisoners of war)
honestly it was probably morally justifiable to burn the religious texts of all these civilisationsanything that produces a society that raids nearby villages and towns to fuel human sacrifices is probably not worth keeping around
>>16473667lol>>16474198>>16474212It's both. Like how race means a competition to see how does something faster, and it also means subspecies.
>>16473477Sagan also propagated the myths that the "Dark Ages" halted technology for centuries and that Hypatia died heroically trying to save the Library of Alexandria...
>>16474340>jew>whiteU r a dum nigger
>>16474668>Sagan also propagated the myths that the "Dark Ages" halted technology for centuriesIt's not a myth, it's a fact.
>>16474711>imagine falling for this bullshit meme
>>16474740These are non arguments.
>>16474711>Nibeliefs
>>16474853Ad hominem
>>16474711Did you even question what is used to gauge "scientific advancement"? You're likely some sheltered office faggot who never bothered thinking about progress in areas like metallurgy and agriculture because you take it for granted.
>>16474340I always think its hilarious how semites, who are an asian race, are so desperate to be considered White. There isn't even a single semite nation that borders on Europe. Why are semites so concerned about being seen as White?Is there something wrong with being asian?>lets outsource our antisemitism to asia, they'll do it for free
>>16475114You don't even need to think about it, you can just go to a museum and compare the shit from the dark ages and Roman Empire. It is extremely painful to see the level of regression even compared to Ancient Greece.
>>16475225It's really not. Dark Ages Europe had better technology in most areas than Rome. The advantage of Rome was in sheer scale. Rome had gigantic aqueducts with simple circular arches, dark ages Europe had windmills and efficient pointed arches.
>>16476851They also had all sorts of technology that was never conceived of in Rome during the dark ages. Mechanical clocks & eyeglasses were both invented in Europe during the so-called "Christian dark ages" and that is already more than any atheist ever invented
>>16476851>>16478518I couldn't find anything about that technology (e.g., windmills, pointed arches, mech. clocks, and eyeglasses) being invented or widely known/used between the 5th–10th centuries. However, I found that Friar Roger Bacon (c.1219-1292) is known to have placed considerable emphasis on the study of nature through empiricism by accompanying his Catholic faith with a scientific way of thinking.
>>16476851That's not true at all. Late middle ages Europe MAYBE. Much technology was lost. Just look at the warfare. Their "epic battles" were 5000 troop skirmishes with zero tactics beyond a cavalry charge into peasants with bats. The Romans basically had fracking ffs
>>16478633
>>16473477Aztecs and Maya destroyed themselves due to their sinfulness.The maya had long collapsed before the Spanish even arrived, and the Aztec created a wider society which utterly loathed them so much they jumped on board with some aliens rather than support the native rulers.
>>16473477He’s a slimy jew. Couldn’t get past the first few pages of Cosmo because it reeked of Jewishness.
>>16473477hes a jew, what did you expect? he hates whites and christians.
>>16476851Name a single good thing about the Medieval Europe until the 12th century.
>>16479888They were Christian and therefore saved instead of damned like the pagan Romans
>>16473477>>16473477>>Despises conquistadors for destroying the Aztecwhat a retard. Aztecs are a meme, most of their stuff was not original>>Completely ignores their constant human sacrifice, slave-based society, and fundamentalist beliefs.but enough about europeans
>>16478649This. Cortez led a popular rebellion against the Aztecs with 200,000 natives assisting the Spanish. The Aztecs were already hated due to their cannibalistic genocidal tendencies and the arrival of the Spanish was just the catalyst for destroying them.
>>16474182No, I'm convinced it is not about race. Look at it this way, if you are an atheist but you say that you are culturally Jewish or Muslim, or whatever, straight away it means that you align all your preferences and goals with those of that religious group making you ideologically inseparable from them. Being 'culturally Jewish' is enough to generate the exhibited behaviour without any racial element, which doesn't exist anymore in the context of Jews anyway (see khazars).
>>16474711Culture is downstream of genetics.
>>16473477He was oblivious to the religious aspect of humanity in general>science is so spiritual, dude weed, the cosmos, manNot the same thing
>>16473477>Completely ignores their constant human sacrifice, slave-based society, and fundamentalist beliefs.You mean... exactly the same as the conquistadors' own ones?
>>16473477>jewThere's your answer.
>>16482491oy vey!
