I believe in one God,
the Father, the Almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
of all that is, seen and unseen.
I believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ,
the only Son of God,
eternally begotten of the Father,
God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made,
of one Being with the Father.
Through him all things were made.
For us and for our salvation
he came down from heaven:
by the power of the Holy Spirit
he became incarnate from the Virgin Mary,
and was made man.
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate;
he suffered death and was buried.
On the third day he rose again
in accordance with the Scriptures;
he ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead,
and his kingdom will have no end.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son.
With the Father and the Son he is worshiped and glorified.
He has spoken through the Prophets.
We believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church.
We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins.
We look for the resurrection of the dead,
and the life of the world to come. Amen.
Humans aren't the focal point of the universe
Get over it

Can someone here explain abenomics to me?
Something about slavery being bad.

A weird mix of everything:
a) Radical monetarism to bring interest rates to 0, or even lower
b) labour market reforms and changes to regulations
c) government spending to try and stimulate investment.
Basically, it's been a failure. Only a Hayekian destruction of capital can really let the Japanese economy flourish again, but noone is going to do that.

Inflation and the peninsular war.

They instituted a system of wealth extraction that fostered pseudo-feudal power systems that in turn led to resentment and impoverishment.
one thing people don't mention is the simple fact that they were the first colonial power and didn't have anyone else's mistakes to avoid

He's right, though. Listen to Jane Goodall:
"If you're not at least 1% Neanderthal, you're not really a modern human." - Journal of Primatology, June 2008, page 56
Gypsies. A group of people that mostly lives in poor condition everywhere they go.
In many European countries they have lived for centuries and yet they have still mostly failed to assimilate. In my country they are the minority that receives the biggest amount of money per person.
Is it really fair to blame their failure on the host country? I am trying to not be racist here but they had 500 years to assimilate and they were given a fair share of help.
We even gave a gypsy "family" (around 80 people form a few different families) their own village and they managed to ruin the place in a decade.
Amongst the centuries of division, hatred and bloodshed, there is one thing that unites all Europeans. Their burning hatred of gypsies.
>>2921093
Well as i stated i struggle to not hate them but whenever i compare them to other groups that we helped even the Serbian refugees in the 90s.
All those people turned out better. They had nothing and were given about as much as Gypsies and now they are decent members of society

What are some examples of small nations successfully invading and changing large ones?

1) the manchu takeover of china, formation of the Qing era.
2) Mongol conquest of Persia and China
3) Seljuk Turks against Byzantium
notice how it is the nomadic tribes that takeover fortified city cultures

Only the British and the Soviet's failed there.
The British didn't fail in Afghanistan, only in the first incursion. By the end of the century it was a completely supplicant puppet state.
It's arguable that the Soviets didn't fail, either. The DRA government forces were regularly triumphant against the mujahideen, but they were unprepared for the sudden Soviet withdrawal that was arguably compelled more by Gorbachev's desire for rapproachment with the West than with any particular military situation.

I once heard that the pale and blond people of Ireland are Germanic invaders who came following the fall of the Rome in the west, while the darker, more Mediterranean-looking people like Colin Farrell are the Celts who had been there since the very beginning.
Is this actually true, or just some bullshit by someone who didn't know anything?
Doesn't sound very scientific, there are plenty of Scandis with Colin Farrells complexion
>>2918801
It's bullshit, British have been genetically the same since 2000 bc when bronze age people invaded the island and mixed with the local Neolithic farmers
It's bullshit, it doesn't even make any sense. The Irish were prolific historians and none of their sources mention anything like this.
I don't understand why this weird mythology has been built up around swarthy Irish people. It's just standard genetic variation.
