>having your morality come from a presupposition of objective truth and first cause creator is hardly faulty logic.
Faith is the belief in something despite nobody being able to properly demonstrate its existence. By definition, it is as far from objectivity as possible, let alone logic.
>We don't have the power to bring back someone who is for example either stabbed, raped or maimed and the surveillance state the west has erected is not helping us prevent planned attacks. Fixing a problem after it happened, no matter how well it's restored, will never make preventing said problem obsolete.
I don't know what you're trying to argue here.
>What? What the fuck are you talking about?

True, but Abrahamic cults led to Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, whose underlying tenets are mostly the same except for differences caused by stupid people running the religion as their personal piggybank for way too fucking long leading to them diverging despite their common root.

Those three sects, combined, account for the majority of religious mouthbreathers on this planet.

I don't know OP, what's the importance of experimental philosophical doctrines that mesh how the world is, with how one should act, trying to form a stable gestalt on metaphysical topics that make one's head hurt and make you swoon, overwhelm you and disorient you just thinking about

Yeah what is the explanation for this? I'm having a hard time tracing the line. Isn't ISIS on the terroristic side, messing with people's lives? How do you connect them? Mesopotamia and Rhodesia both had irrigation systems but I don't call them comparable in the first place in conversation. lol
I want to know why you associate them. Were there close amounts of power for these groups? I would think there's a disparity, right? They both don't exist in the same amount on that metric. I can't see why you'd equate them, it's a mystery to me. I've encountered a Herculean task of managing the mystery of this scenario. lol

He doesn't put a lot of thought into each one so you shouldn't either.

Why is Africa backward ? Historian 19/07/06(Sat)21:18 No. 15171 [Reply]

I would like us to discuss why Africa is backward. As far as I know, this is the first man to have arisen in the continent. Before the arrival (man) on the territory of e.g. Europe it took several thousand years, so Africans should be developed a few thousand years ahead of other human races, but it happened the other way round, and the indigenous inhabitants of Africa together with a group of Australian Aborigines and tribes living in the rainforests of the Amazon are among the most backward human groups on Earth.

Why native Africans havent been able to form a functioning civilization after several thousand years ?

That they had modern European DNA, which we've always known. Ancient Egyptians were basically mixed of African, European, and Semetic roots.

They, like Phonecians, were heavily semetic, however.

They're closest to Arabs and Jews though. And just because they aren't black doesn't mean they aren't African. You did use an epic maymay though so my argument is moot

ISIS Islamic State and Islam in Indigenous Muslim peoples of Latin America Historian 16/08/24(Wed)09:32 No. 14906 [Reply]

ISIS Islamic State and Islam in Indigenous Muslim peoples of Latin America

All Muslims around the world especially in the Middle East, North Africa, Central Asia, Indian Subcontinent, and Southeast Asia will go and migrate to Latin America. Islamize and Marry Indigenous Peoples will become Muslims in Latin America like the Taino, Maya, Chorotega, Bribri, Miskito, Arawak, Wayuu, Guaymis, Kuna, Embera, Ayamara, Shuar, Quechua Inca, Amazon, Tupi, Guaranis, Teheulche and Mapuche.

Also the Native Americans and Eskimos are willing to embrace Islam too. If that happen, 50 million indigenous peoples of the Americas (Western hemisphere) will become the indigenous Muslims in the Western Hemisphere.

the Spanish colonialism and Western imperialism that oppress the Indigenous peoples will end thanks to Islam.

Hispanics like Mexicans will become refugees going to United States once the Islamic Maya State is established in Southern Mexico like Chiapas and Yucatan peninsula with the help of arab league, Muslim migrants, OIC, AQ abd Isis.

If a Hispanics or Europeans Kuffars attack an Indigenous Latin American Muslim, Muslims all over the world will slaughter the Kuffars anywhere in the world as response.

What happened in Southern Philippines, Chechnya, Xinjiang China, Southern Thailand, Kashmir, Balkans and other with Muslim population/Islam as a major religion that caused tensions and conflicts will also happen in Yucatan peninsula, Panama-Colombia, Amazon, Andes, Araucania Guyanas, Tri border region and Patagonia when the Indigenous Peoples embraced Islam.

Muslims will control the shipping routes of Panama canal and Patagonia (just the Red Sea, Mallaca Strait, Arafura Sea, Giblartar, Persian Gulf, Bosporus/Black Sea and the Silk Road) that will spell disaster to Global Economy and Striking distance to United States and Canada in the Western Hemisphere.

Stupid.
It is a Catholic society; under the influence of organized crime on a cultural level which is being sponsored and propagated through agents of Foreign Powers (America and Allies).
The only other people who give a shit about S. America is China; they might be anti-USA, but they are more anti-theism so I don't see them going into a proxy war against the US in SA through a weak Muslim militia facing heavily armed crusader cartels.
How exactly out Islamic extremist groups going to prosper instead of being executed alive in SA? Better chance of that happening literally anywhere else in the world. Anywhere.
Would not have normally responded to silly paranoia posts, but "anywhere moments" falls on the spectrum of too stupid for me not explain to you that your parents were correct to send you on the short bus you fucking retard.

Hitler did nothing wrong? Historian 14/11/08(Sat)06:59 No. 14456 [Reply]

My purpose in posting this is not to incite a drama filled thread - what I'm looking for are people who can confidently denounce the claim that the Holocaust did not happen.

It's political suicide to see Hitler and the Nazi party as anything but evil, so I'm hoping someone can help out.
Embedded is a youtube link to a 6:30 hour long documentary entitled 'Hitler: the Greatest Story Never Told'. It's banned in a substantial number of countries, so VPNs at the ready if you want to watch it.
It lists many atrocities committed by allies during WWII, the ethnic cleansing of the German people following it, and shows research into the 'death camps' that Soviets liberated, this and more suggests the Holocaust story was a fabrication by the allied powers to support the existence of the state of Israel and justify WWII itself. My problem is that is rings of truth. After a read through of anti-denialist material I'm not happy that this event occurred as claimed in our popular history.

I urge you to take a look at the list of sources that documentary provides. It's a bit disturbing when a documentary purporting to have the truth, despite having access to a dearth of German primary documents capture after the war, barely references any of them, choosing rather to reference mostly websites and hardly a book.

I recommend you read Shirer's The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich for a well researched account of the war.

If you're gonna troll at least make a good effort. You could quite easily go down the path of the Jews creating the 'Caust themselves as a result of the 1918-19 Civil war when Jewish Communist tried to overthrow the German government, pushed Hitler into power and by extension made themselves the enemy during the rise of Nationalism.

Blaming them for their own demise is going to generate far more luls. You need to think like Kanye when he said that blacks chose to be slaves...

Why are Confucian societies so non-religious nowadays? At first, I guessed communism, but it turns out that Nice Korea and Japan are also pretty non-religious. They constantly rank low in religiosity polls, and are among the few societies where it isn't correlated with wealth.

(Confucian sphere is more or less China, Japan, Korea and Vietnam).

With the Syrian civil war escalating despite several attempts made by the UNSC and now Russia enacting ceasefires, a new major player may be on the rise. I have heard that the PLA would be deploying their troops apparently to combat Uighur extremists there, but could they might as well stir up the situation as NATO did?

The military attache at the Chinese embassy stated that the PLA would offer assistance to the Syrian government if ordered by the Chinese government.

So it's a statement made by the attache not the central government. IF (and that's a big if) the PLA did deploy it'd probably be in the form of SOF or military advisers, not a large conventional force. China's making inroads where they can, and offering an oil-producing country who has been thrown aside or actively targeted by the entirety of the West would offer serious advantages.
