So can we all agree these are the objective rankingss?
>atheists/agnostics who realize there is no evidence for God but don't see a problem with letting people have different beliefs as long as they don't hurt anyone else
>theists/deists who believe there is a convincing argument for God but realize the stupidity of every manmade religion
>Catholics who actually understand and adhere to their faith
>fedora tipper atheists who are just rebelling against the dominant culture and constantly engage religious people for the thrill of arguing
>Protestants who believe in convincing evidence for God
>Christian plebs who unthinkingly believe whatever denomination they were raised in and don't take it seriously
>"Christians" who self-consciously subscribe to religious beliefs because muh culture or because they think it's better for society to promote it regardless of the truth
>"dude u just gotta have faith lmao. stop asking about reason and evidence hurr durr u just gotta belieb"

Memories are determined

I choose to raise my arm. Nothing chose this for me, although it is physically determined. So I am this causal process' "perspective" of itself. The subjective, felt sense of freedom is compatible with a universe of strict physical laws because I am inside these laws and so free with respect to myself. The sensation of freedom is purely itself.

I first thought about posting this on /lit/ but since they recommend me not to do so, i'm counting on you guys : i'm curently studying buddhism, and while I manage to gatter enough information among secondary and general books, I would like to read the Tripitaka (or tipitaka if you prefer).
For those of you who don't know, the Tripitaka (Three Basket ? I dont know how to translate it in english) is the closest thing to a bible, a canonical compilation of essential writting in the budhist religion (or way of life, philosophy, whatever you prefer). The problem is that it's FUCKING expensive, and I'm not even mentionning the different versions.
My request is the following : did any of you ever read online a numeric english version of the tripitaka OR a decent summary, still in english, and if so, can you send me the link ?
Thak you very much for your attention, cheers

Tripitaka means "Three Baskets", also known as Pali canon.
It includes three different typics of literature. Buddha's sayings. Philosophy/Metaphysics/interpetations of Buddha. Monkhood livelihood.

What's the truth and what's fiction when it comes to Knights?
We're Knights great warriors or is their martial prowess exaggerated? Did they have the respect of the people or did they keep people in line with fear? Were they honorable or just as base and mean as everyone else?

Your questions, in order: yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, and finally, yes.
>>
Incredibly broad questions about an incredibly diverse warrior-class.
>We're Knights great warriors or is their martial prowess exaggerated?
Well who are you reading? Obviously if you're reading Mallory and hearing about Lancelot throwing 500 knights off their horses singlehandedly it's exaggerated. You need to learn how to distinguish between chivalrous legend and historical account.
>Did they have the respect of the people or did they keep people in line with fear?
Some nobles were no doubt respected, but many were cunts.
>Were they honorable or just as base and mean as everyone else?
Knights generally held one another to a different standard of conduct than they did the average joe. Again, depended on the individual and the source.
But let's reduce this to what you really seem to be asking
>Is chivalrous fairytale bullshit an accurate depiction of knights?
No.
>>
No, knights didn't train since a young age with various weapons on foot and on horseback to prepare for war. They did it for the lulz, dank memes, and to get laid.

>according to messianic prophesy the messiah must be a descendent of king david
>according to christians, jesus is the messiah
>the new testament authors prove that he is of the line of david by giving meticulous genealogies of his line starting from adam (the first man) through abraham through david and finally through to his father joseph
>christians also have to prove that jesus is divine for various reasons regarding their narrative of his life (e.g. he has to be sinless)
>to prove his divinity christians point to the 'fact' that he was conceived by a virgin (mary) who knew no man, not even her husband joseph
>all is well for a long time
>thousands of years later genetics is discovered and it is then understood that jesus can't possibly be of the line of david because he shares no genes with joseph aka the early christians didn't know that inheritance doesn't work like that
>christians quietly ignore this enormous plot hole
explain yourselves christards
