You should ask this on /sci/. Around 10%, the rest is so called Dark Matter, which is non-barionic, this can't be seen, but interacts somehow with the "visible" world through gravity.
For instance, there is a way to detect supermassive rings of cosmological strings when the light passes through them by how they curve the light.

t. your friendly STEM

Some tiny fraction of 1%.

Wtf I love atheistic hedonism nao!

the stuff they believe in thailand

Now you have 10 seconds to list a reason this is a bad thing.

>>2535064

Absolute devils

The most peaceful sect of Muslims are probably Ibadis, mainly because they are isolationist and quietist. I am tempted to say Ahmadi, but they are heterodox enough in the essentials, that I do not consider them as within the fold of Islam. Alawi are even worse, but it's hard to say how much worse, because I and just about everyone else have no idea what they believe.

>>2535037
Alawi are not the same as Alevi though. From what I've read the Alawi are Syrian and separate from the Alevi who are generally Turkish. Only the name is similar afaik


Met lost of them in Germany and Canada, the Alevi I mean

>>2535037
all i know is that alawi believe that ali was a god in human form and they hold congregations at night in secretive way where, adopted from christianity, they drink the wine which is transubstantiated into the blood of ali

Yes.

>>2535012
in a way, at the very least it demotes the word of god to subject to the laws of man.
Basically the only way forward

Was the Suez Crisis really the end of Britain as a global superpower? I've heard this a lot.

Pretty much. It was pretty humiliating, it could not have ended worse. They sacrificed everything to "win" world war 2. If they hadn't gone autistic for poland's sake, they would have still had their empire.

Wasn't Gandhi already stirring shit up in India? And that was the "Jewel in the Crown." I think the empire's end was inevitable.

Southern Baptist here. I understand how based Catholics have been in the past, but can you guys explain to me why a guy who supports gay marriage should be considered the mouth of God?

I mean, I'm not saying I'm against gay marriage. I have gay friends, I'd just prefer civil unions honestly. I'm just wondering why we're suddenly acting like these are consistent with God's word. It's fine to be a Christian and not want to stone gays, just disagree with their lifestyle, y'know?

Oh boy, it's yet another thread where we have to explain the specific circumstances where the pope is infallible.

>>2534885
I didn't mean it like that. I just meant how does Catholic doctrine justify this. I'm not trying to be offensive or anything, believe me, Catholics are seriously fucking based. Just look at the degeneracy that has seeped into our own movements- Episcopalians, Lutherans, it's all fucking retarded. We need unity among Christians if anything.

I just want to know how a traditionalist, anti-gay marriage, anti-abortion Catholic would view the Pope today. Like how would you get me to convert to Catholicism, essentially.

Hitler had dark hair, dark eyes and dark skin, he was a Jew by ancestry, also a homosexual, pedophile, shit eater, sexual sadist, cuckold, retard and he also had just one ball, a micropenis and a club foot. Everyone knows that.

This is my favorite colored photo, but she accused me of colorizing it and of defending or glorifying him and destroyed it when I printed it in 2001.

>>2534847
did colored photography even exist then?

The Byzantine Empire WAS Rome, dipshit. The name "Byzantine" wasn't even a thing until many many years after its fall. When it was still in existence, everyone just called it what it was: Rome.

Who gives a shit. Western Roman Empire fell 400 ad, eastern Roman Empire fell 1500 ad.

There were no successors. Shut up and get over it, not every empire needs a successor.

>>2534813 Highly false.

>>2534817 Many historians actually care deeply about the claim to the Roman Throne as many nations have claimed the title since the fall of both Rome and Constantinople.

As for both of you, Fuck off. your shit responses have no place here or anywhere on this board.

if you are getting fucked by the system like everyone else, you are likely neither unique nor talented in any notable or significant way - however you may still be above average intelligence.

>he's a moral realist

Evil is things I don't like, and can convince other people also not to like. Developing personal ethics is simply thinking deeply about things I don't like and trying to come up with a non-contradictory system to categorize things I don't like and make sure I actually don't like the things I don't like.

So are you saying we could adopt universal ethics because it ought to just be logical for everyone?

rationality is safe space of coherence created by normies once they whine that what they call reality is not enough coherent to them.
Math is the step beyond the one done by normies with their little legal rules, justifying them from what they experience, by some rationality, common sense, necessity and other spooks like progress (and whine when they see that most people do not care about their little rules even if the first people manage to enforce them)
Then they get butthurt when some guy not spooked about all these spooks recall them that all these people is projecting lots of feelings and fantasies or just create other spooky formal languages after the same intention.
Of course, these normies create an idea of ''accuracy of my formal language with what I experience'' because deep down people know that their little inferences are just the result of their imagination, so they crave some spook called ''non-human objective third party '' which would make everybody agree on anything while shitting on empiricism, because ''my senses dupe me since the straw bends in water, but not in the air, thank ???? for giving the faculty of reason I can totally see the real reality now''.

Neck yourself

Yes. Accept that you cannot objectively determine the truth.

Cognitive Dissonance arises when you have a conflict between incongruent ideas that your mind is trying to sort and categorize as true and untrue but unable to make accurate and reassuring determinations.

Instead accept that this may be true, or that, or some other idea completely unaware to you. Of you are not forcing your simple mind to convince itself that it can or has indeed found the truth, you will have Cognitive Brilliance.

Then you will see the universe as it truly is. Vast, incomprehensible with multitudes of truth completely unobtainable to the all singing, all dancing dirty myopic apes that we are.

Enjoy your life. Have a chocolate chip cookie, pet a warm puppy dog, and make love to a beautiful woman in the red glowing rays of the setting sun. Accept that you will only be able to see the smallest fraction of reality imaginable, and you will only ever glimpse the smallest fraction of possible truths.

Stop wondering about what life is and being upset with your lack of answers. Just live life. Your cosmically insignificant and comically tragic story will soon be over. Strike your words like fire in the air, write your name in the relentless waves of time. Do not sit idle in the cave with your shadows. Go outside. Breath, eat, explore, fuck, love, hate, dream. Curse the fates and damn the torpedoes. Take the fore from the Gods while you still can. Do anything but sit around wasting your life worrying about cognitive dissonance.
