Why would God allow free will if he wants us all to be completely perfect anyways and then send his beloved creations to hell for one tiny sin only to torture his son to forgive us instead of just willing it?

1. GOD ALLOWS FREE WILL SO THAT WE CAN STRUGGLE FOR FREEDOM.

FREE WILL IS A CONSEQUENCE OF CONSCIOUSNESS; CONSCIOUSNESS IS A FUNCTION OF THE MIND WHICH WAS IMPLANTED BY SOFIA SO THAT WE CAN REMEMBER OUR DIVINE ESSENCE, AND ACT BY ITS IMPELLENCE.

2. GOD DID NOT CREATE HUMANS; HUMANS WERE CREATED BY THE DEMIOURGOS.

3. SOULS GO NEITHER TO HELL, NOR TO PARADISE, AFTER DEATH, BUT TO THE HYPERZONE, REMAINING THERE UNTIL THE FINAL DAY OF JUDGMENT, AFTER WHICH SOULS WILL THEN BE SENT EITHER TO HELL, OR TO PARADISE, ACCORDING TO THEIR ETHOS DURING THEIR LIFETIME.

4. THE GENERAL CRITERION FOR SENDING A SOUL TO HELL IS NOT DISOBEDIENCE, NOR "SINFULNESS", BUT IGNOBILITY.

5. JESUS WAS NOT A DIVINITY; HE WAS NOT "THE SON OF GOD"; JESUS WAS A NOBLE HUMAN PERSON, AND PROPHET.

6. JESUS DID NOT DIE AS A "SCAPEGOAT" FOR "HUMANITY'S SINS"; THAT IS A JUDEOCHRISTIAN NOTION —ID EST: A CORRUPTION.

Why should people have "rights"
19 posts and 11 images submitted.
>>
>>2674332
The concept of negative rights acts as a counter to the concept of laws.

If laws are edicts the government gives that must be obeyed lest the citizenry be punished, rights are things the government must respect lest they be violently overthrown.

These two ideas together form part of the Social Contract, wherein people give up a portion of their negative rights [such as the right to murder, rape, or steal] in return for the benefits of law.
>>
>>2674332
>Why should people have "rights"
The origin of the concept comes from the halls of medieval monasteries, where rival cadres of bickering monks asked each other this question:
"What is the right way to treat someone?"

They framed it in a religious sense: in order to achieve a more perfect union with the dictates of Christ, we need to categorize behaviors which do and don't fall within the parameters of those rules which flowed from Jesus's commandment to love your neighbors as yourself. Neighbors who love each other don't steal from one another, don't covet each other's wives, etc.

Because the salvation of the soul was at stake, Christians were obligated to treat each other in a loving manner, and as such "the right way" to treat people became social obligations, or "rights".

It was precisely this line of thinking which inspired enlightenment thinkers such as John Locke, which in turn inspired the American revolution to reverse this trend of thinking of "rights" as a privilege granted by citizenship, but something inalienable and inherent in all people, with the government's role to act as an enforcer of these self-evident truths, which vary over time as technology changes the circumstances of the human condition and allow for a wider variety of possibilities.

They don't, rights are obviously an artificial concept and a very recent one at that

Both Truman and the Joint Chiefs had sent nukes to be possibly used in Korea, the whole "Macarthur being a warmonger" is a lie. Truman fired him because he was going over Truman's head talk to foreign officials and seeking more public approval to push the Chinese back.

Let's have a thread where we post other cultures opinions on each other. I'll start:

"On the Arabs [Dashi to the Chinese], compiled from the records of Du Huang, who was a POW in the Abbasid Caliphate following the Battle of Talas."

>The Dashi (Arabs) were originally under the rule of Anxi (Persia). The men have high noses, are dark, and bearded. The women are very fair [white] and when they go out they veil the face. Five times daily they worship Tianshen [lit. Heavenly God]. They wear silver girdles, with silver knives suspended. They do not drink wine, nor use music. Their place of worship will accommodate several hundreds of people.

>Every seventh day the King (Caliph) sits on high, and speaks to those below saying, ' Those who are killed by the enemy will be born in heaven above; those who slay the enemy will receive happiness.' Therefore they are usually valiant fighters. Their land is sandy and stony, not fit for cultivation; so they hunt and eat flesh

>>2674156
>Kufa is the place of their capital. Its men and women are attractive in appearance and large in stature. Their clothing is handsome, and their carriage and demeanor leisurely and lovely. When women go outdoors, they always cover their faces, regardless of whether they are noble or base. They pray to heaven five times a day. They eat meat [ even] when practicing abstention, [for] they believe the taking of life to be meritorious.

>The followers of the religion of the Dashi have a means to denote the degrees of family relations, but it is degenerated and they don’t bother about it. They don’t eat the meat of pigs, dogs, donkeys and horses, they don’t respect neither the king of the country, neither their parents, they don’t believe in supernatural powers, they perform sacrifice to heaven and to no one else. According their customs every seventh day is a holiday, on which no trade and no cash transactions are done, whereas when they drink alcohol, they are behaving in a ridiculous and undisciplined way during the whole day

This is Moroccan traveler Ibn Battuta talking about the Africans.

>The negroes possess some admirable qualities. They are seldom unjust, and have a greater abhorrence of injustice than any other people. Their sultan shows no mercy to anyone who is guilty of the least act of it. There is complete security in their country. Neither traveller nor inhabitant in it has anything to fear from robbers or men of violence. They do not confiscate the property of any white man who dies in their country, even if it be uncounted wealth. On the contrary, they give it into the charge of some trustworthy person among the whites, until the rightful heir takes possession of it. They are careful to observe the hours of prayer, and assiduous in attending them in congregations, and in bringing up their children to them.

>Another of their good qualities is their habit of wearing clean white garments on Fridays. Even if a man has nothing but an old worn shirt, he washes it and cleans it, and wears it to the Friday service. Yet another is their zeal for learning the Koran by heart. They put their children in chains if they show any backwardness in memorizing it, and they are not set free until they have it by heart. I visited the qadi in his house on the day of the festival. His children were chained up, so I said to him, "Will you not let them loose?" He replied, "I shall not do so until they learn the Koran by heart.

Did the Nazis truly view Slavic people as subhumans or was it a more political thing (anti-Communism)? I ask because the Nazis did try to cooperate with some Slavs (the Croatians come to mind first and foremost). Indeed, according to Wikipedia, up to 20%* of the Wehrmacht's manpower on the Eastern Front in the initial stages of Barbarossa was foreign, with half being Russian. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_collaborationism_with_the_Axis_powers

*Don't actually know if this statistic is accurate or not.

The Nazi racial policies were quite based on necessity.

We need to control a messy region, without committing massive numbers of troops? Welcome, fellow Aryan Croatians!

The war with the USSR is going well?

Fuck off Ukrainian untermenschen, we have no need for your wish to form twenty divisions to fight the Soviets!

Latvians and Lithuanians? You are somewhat smelly, you can serve, but in Schuma battalions, and may not be awarded the Iron Cross - here, take this smelly easterner medal.

The war with the USSR has gone to shit?

Congratulations, great nations of Europe! You may now form Waffen SS divisions! Iron Crosses for all!

>I ask because the Nazis did try to cooperate with some Slavs
If ayys come to Earth and try to conquer us, I'm sure you'll find people collaborating with them.

As for the collaborating Slavs Germans needed manpower, so they had no problem with using them, as long as they were not on Lebensraum.

If you read Goebbels and Rosenberg's diaries you'll find that the sub-human (which to be honest is a bad translation of untermensch should be lesser human, like how you have lesser boar greater boars adn shit in warcraft) meme originates from the Wehrmacht propaganda office which competed with Goebbel's own propaganda office. Both Rosenberg and Goebbel's tried to stop this propaganda because it was completely stupid. The army propaganda guy however thought the moral boost was more important and also it made it easier to follow the 'new war' mentality Hitler wanted fought in the east, aka no geneva conventions.

Ultimately, who can say who was right? I tend to side with Rosenberg and Goebbels on this one but its alot easier to do so when you know how the war ends.

This schismatic man and his associates have sentenced the West to death and are responsible for all damnable modern dogmas, such as 'Individuality,' 'Democracy,' and 'Capitalism.'

'Sola Scriptura' is the ideological basis for subjectivism and was dogmatized by these heretics and for it the West slowly dies a painful and degenerate death.

The only mistake the Reformation made was not getting out of its crippled Catholic phase and completely purge the Vatican, Pope - Lord of Lords and Jesuits from the face of earth.

Truth be told, most men want to be told what to do by a despot now after a few millennium of 'civilization' which is really just the art of self domestication.

On the bright side it did highlight what man is capable of when freed from the shackles of a despot.

I try to follow the "christian values", but i personally think that taking the bible literally as in thinking that all that is written in it actually happened usually only leads to being a very close minded person
