Was Muhammad possessed by the devil?
37 posts and 4 images submitted.

Muhammad was monogamous for 25 years. After his first wife died, he proceeded to marry the wives listed below, and most of them were widows. Muhammad's life is traditionally delineated as two epochs: pre-hijra (emigration) in Mecca, a city in western Arabia, from the year 570 to 622, and post-hijra in Medina, from 622 until his death in 632. All but two of his marriages were contracted after the Hijra (migration to Medina). Of Muhammad's thirteen "wives", at least two, Rayhana bint Zayd and Maria al-Qibtiyya, were actually only concubines;[2][3] however, there is debate among Muslims as to whether these two became his wives.[4] Of his thirteen wives and/or concubines only two bore him children, a fact which has been described as "curious" by Cornell University Professor of Near Eastern Studies David S. Powers.[5]

Thank you for this. Sometimes the anons on this board give up and go right for degenerate, uneducated posting. I have a love/hate relationship with Islam, but I will not let my bias get in the way of some good sources.

Why is argument from nature considered a fallacy?
Do I really have to justify nature as a value every time I want to say something basic like "strength is better than weakness" to these autistic cromagnon nihilists that make up the bulk of today's "high-minded" intellectual wankery?

You meant virtue.
And no, it can't be neither

>>3229554
It probably has something to do with the fact that you're trying to use your own marginal strength to justify a superiority over those who, unlike you, posses some iota of intellect.

>>3227912
Just because they didn't drink and their soldiers could out match the Austrians who drank at least two litres of wine a day doesn't mean that they had the intelligence to manage an empire.

The Ottomans were a shit show. They got tips from the 'great' empires of the Ganges.

Basically came into power with the help of Hitler yet did jackshit in WW1

Refused to cooperate with the JQ, Spain was a safe haven for European Jews (much like Salazar's Portugal and Mannerheim's Finland)

Later de facto joined (((NATO))) and got American armaments/support

Later supported by Israel against Morocco, a state that at the time was actively expelling Jews

We constantly hear this narrative that the evil elites are trying to keep down the common man, and to steal our liberties.
But it is really true? It seems to me like the elites are in general better educated and much nicer than the common people.
It is the common man who supports nationalism and xenophobia. The common man who follows religious superstition, who supports sharia in middle eastern countries, who is willing to opress or even kill minorities.

After all, aren't elites in the position they are, precisely because they are the best of us, both in their skills and moral values?

For the most part, yes. That is why populism is so cancerous and dangerous whether it is from the far-left or the far-right.

>At least communism or national socialism had a purpose
That's one of the reasons they failed. Only weak men want ready-made purpose handed to them. Capitalism creates conditions of prosperity in which every strong man has the opportunity to choose his own purpose. When combined with decent social safety nets, it's also not a bad system for weak men to live in.
Note: I'm not using weak and strong as moralistic value judgments. For the most part, the strong are just lucky enough to have been born with certain gifts or have had certain opportunities growing up. Nonetheless...

Historically speaking, what is this man and his family's keikaku?

Keep the gravy train going as long as humanly possible, I'd guess.

How old were ancient heroes supposed to be? We read about how young soldiers were and how early people died, but everyone in The Iliad and Odyssey seems well into their thirties and forties. Odysseus even has a grown ass kid at home, and he had him even before going off for ten years.

The average lifespan was not meaningfully lower in the past, the rate of infant mortality was just much lower thus tearing the average down.

If you lived past the age of five you would statistically probably make it to 60+.

Take into consideration that they'd start having kids in their late teens if not earlier

The one I never got was Neoptolemus, he was apparently born shortly before Achilles goes off to the war. So he's at most like 10. Somehow though, he's able to fight with grown men and is one of the champions inside the Trojan horse.
