In threads about the Romans why do people shill so hard for preachy faggot zealots who sowed chaos across the empire and ushered in an intellectual dark age?

Like the damn SJWs of the Iron Age preaching Judaism lite.

Because people are basically morons, and Christian """people""" are both morons and incredibly dishonest.

Because the equally preachy faggot zealots from the imperial cult were more annoying to the average Roman. The out of touch conservatives who preached Mos maiorum for centuries until everyone got fucking tired of it and wanted a change. Prudentius called it the superstition of their forefathers. Greco-Roman syncretic paganism rapidly became uncool which is why mystery cults took over, first with Sol Invictus and Mithra, then with the Jesus guy. Constantine certainly helped this process along but Christianity was popular in the urban centers long before him.

It spread from Asia and entered Europe via Italy.

Y. pestis is potentially one of the first examples of biological warfare in (recorded) history, when in 1347, plague victims were catapulted by the Mongols over the city walls of Caffa, a town currently known as Feodosiya located in Crimea. Infected inhabitants may have fled to Italy, thus spreading the Black Death to Europe, though this is likely only one of a few routes that could have brought the plague from the east.

Was England considered a “colony” of France when it was conquered in 1066? How did it become it's own country again? I've never heard of an event that caused its succession from Normandy.

In England William was a king and a subject to none, while in Normandy he was a duke and a vassal of a French king. He conquered England for himself while still legaly paying his obligations as a duke of Normandy to a king of France.

It's a bit weird to understand but that's feudalism for ya.

Henry IV speaking english as his first language

And losing its territories on the continent in 1453.

From then on, it was distinctly separate from France.

Catholic Church will ditch the white race and begin pandering to the growth of Africa, pushing for nearly unrestrained amounts of African immigration into Europe; bolstering Christianity on both continents.

White Catholics should keep their mouths shut and their wallets open.

White people decline in numbers and basically assimilate into the Ashkenazi Jew population. Western Europe will basically be south Africa a small 15% - 20% white elite that never leaves their guarded compounds lording over muslim and African masses. This is a best case scenario btw

Let's have a nice conversation about national anthems, and learn a bit more together. Today we will start with the Romanian anthem, "Deșteaptă-te, române", translated as "Wake up, Romanian". Remember that this thread needs of your participation.

According to the Wikipedia, it was written and published (under a different name) during the 1848 revolution, by Andrei Mureșanu. As you can read, it contains a message of liberty and patriotism, but keeping that agonizing and funeral style.

Check how it sounds:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zTwgwEHiWm0


Verses 1-2

>Romanian

Deșteaptă-te, române, din somnul cel de moarte,
În care te-adânciră barbarii de tirani
Acum ori niciodată croiește-ți altă soarte,
La care să se-nchine și cruzii tăi dușmani.

Acum ori niciodată să dăm dovezi la lume
Că-n aste mâni mai curge un sânge de roman,
Și că-n a noastre piepturi păstrăm cu fală-un nume
Triumfător în lupte, un nume de Traian.

>English

Wake up, Romanian, from the sleep of death
Into which you have been sunk by the barbaric tyrants
Now, or never, make a new fate for yourself,
To which even your cruel enemies will bow.

Now or never let us give proof to the world
That in these veins a Roman blood still flows,
That in our chests we hold a name with pride,
Victorious in battle, the name of Trajan!


Check the last line. It mentions the Roman Emperor Trajan. Interesting, isn't it? He was born in the Iberian Peninsula, ruled Roman Empide, and ended conquering Dacian lands, and hearts...

Verses 3-4

>Romanian

Priviți, mărețe umbre, Mihai, Ștefan, Corvine,
Româna națiune, ai voștri strănepoți,
Cu brațele armate, cu focul vostru-n vine,
"Viața-n libertate ori moarte" strigă toți.

Preoți, cu crucea-n frunte căci oastea e creștină,
Deviza-i libertate și scopul ei preasfânt.
Murim mai bine-n luptă, cu glorie deplină,
Decât să fim sclavi iarăși în vechiul nost' pământ.

>English

Behold, great shadows, Mihai, Ștefan, Corvinus,
The Romanian Nation, your great-grandchildren,
With weapons in their arms, with your fire in their veins,
"Life in freedom or death!" shout all.

Priests, lead with your crucifixes, for our army is Christian,
The motto is Liberty and its goal is holy,
Better to die in battle, in full glory,
Than to once again be slaves upon our ancient ground!


Here you can read three interesting names:
Mihai Viteazu (Michael the Brave), Prince of Wallachia (as Michael II, 1593–1601), Prince of Moldavia (1600) and de facto ruler of Transylvania (1599–1600), He is considered one of Romania's greatest national heroes and he is seen by the Romanian historiography as the first author of Romanian unity (a brief unity, it only lasted 6 months).
Ștefan cel Mare (Stephen III of Moldavia), voivode (or prince) of Moldavia from 1457 to 1504, and famous for his resistance against the Ottomans (among many other attributes).
Juan Hunyadi, one of the greatests warriors of the Oriental Europe, the equivalent of Henry V of England.

The fourth verse talks about Christianity. Interesting, because before the Tomans, Dacians used to believe in a whole pantheon where Zamolxis was the main god.

I forgot to say that this is the short version of the anthem. The long one is 11 verses long.

If God isn't real the can athests answer why only we are the truly self conscious (no animals is self conscious on the level as we are, admit it) species on earth? Why we have great civilizations and great history and art and culture? Why we are the ONLY one who is capable of such greatness?

Atheists you can fool yourselfs for only so long before you see that we are special and created by God and is his blessed.

Chimps, orangutans, bonobos and gorillas have varying levels of self-awareness and understanding of death; as do orcas, dolphins, and elephants.

However you're right that Homo sapiens are miles ahead of all other living species that we know about; however Neanderthals probably had languages, a basic form of religious ritual, and did understand the concept of death.

The human species, both those living and extinct, generally have a great amount of brain power which consumes a large amount of energy. However the advanced mental capacities of Homo sapiens didn't fully develop until about 70,000 years ago; and even then it wasn't until 12,000 years ago that agricultural civilization developed.

It took an embarrassingly long time for us to get to this point.

I thought this was explained by Stephen Pinker, about 20 years ago. He said there is no conscious self, just sophisticated instinctive behaviour. You think you do as you want, you think you make free choices about what you do rather than , like a lion, just kill and eat and shag. Well go outside now, rip your shirt off and run down the street roaring like a lion. You don't do you and you wont. His view was that what stops you is instinctual and our perception of our freedoms is an illusion.

I guess what stops us accepting this is mans other great trait: ego.
