I did a paper on them. I came to the conclusion that they were actually pretty small scale, but they were remembered as HUGE.

This memory fuelled the autism of Henry VIII, and thus really wanted a son.

Autistic question:

What were some of the earliest lawsuits in history relating to safety?

When would a country like America first see a lawsuit against someone for, let's say, installing railings on a building unsafely? Stais that aren't supported? A building not built right? Things like that.

Pic taken in 1864 (someone did a cool job coloring it) in Nashville.

I don't know when the first lawsuit of this type happened in the US, but the bible has more verses than one would think regarding putting railing on your rooftop. Whether you are a christian or non-christian, this would seem to indicate that some form of legal suit or complaint had to be taken regarding this issue before the bible.

Now, being so long ago, this form of legal action might have been something along the lines of trial by combat or so,e shit like that, but I think that still fits your question.

As life is mainly about finding meaning, would it be safe to assume that being religious is playing life on easy mode? Is this also what keeps religious people from becomic agnostoc/atheistic as they would give up on meaning, which is the very thing we are after?

Funny, I was rewriting that part when I was fixing the typo but apparently the old version was posted already, I thought I was quick enough with cancelling the post. What would you consider to be humanitys drive then? Pleasure? I would assume you're right if so, as finding "meaning" is a way to feel better in a sense

Why wouldn't we ask whether we had a meaning if we didn't have a reason/meaning to ask?

There shouldn't be freedom of speech at all. People should only be allowed to ever say two lines their entire life, like in those Whose Line sketches.

For example:
Protestant Anglo family here in the American continent since colonial times. Anglicized German name that we managed to actually trace back to Northern Ireland.
Somehow I never learned what my family did in our Civil War, but since they were in Iowa at the time they we're almost certainly Union.
Fought in the World Wars for the Entente/Allies naturally, and the West in the Cold War, having also fought in Vietnam.
All told the most archtype American: Protestant, Germanic, Anti-Communist, Western

Singapore's system is tied with China's (despite its myriad problems) as my favorite government system right now. However, I view it as incomplete. Its evocation of "Asian Values" is rather shallow and will eventually degenerate into Western liberalism due to ideological pressure. Fundamental reforms are in order to prevent this.

It's just benevolent authoritarianism with a veneer of democracy. A less corrupt version of Putin's Russia.

This is spread of the Proto-Indo-Europeans (Aryans) in which they spread from their original homeland of Ukraine to Europe, Balkans, Russia, Caucasus, Antonia, Central Asia, Iran, India, and the Tarim Basin. They also spread their language which split into other languages in which they eventually spread and colonized the world.
