Is this the most retarded mindset and strategy in the history of war and conflict?

Much better than attempting to fight both Nazi Germany and Soviet Union simultaneously.

Whoever thinks that it was a mistake to arm and finance the Mujahideen knows absolutely nothing about geostrategy.

What would have happened if Nestorianism didn't die out in China? What would the world look like if the Mongols had adopted Nestorianism?

A unified religion of the Mongol empire establishing communication networks linking China to renaissance Europe? We would all be Nestorian by now.
>>
>>2905946
Then this country and SK would return to their status as Rightful Nestorian Clay.

After it declined in China, then came the Portuguese and others. The Roman Catholicism split affects Church of the East and Church of the East-based churches at this very moment. So they would've had to deal with that. Shortly before it declined in China, I recently read, they were trying to reconcile with Roman Catholics, who the Ilkhanate's leaders were also trying to ally with, supposedly. The later Chaldean (Catholic) split was probably influenced by this presence of RC missionaries/friars. A slight majority of Assyrian Nestorians - the remnant after the Portuguese forced the Indians to be RC and Tamerlane persecuted and possibly exterminated them in eastern Persia / Central Asia - have become Catholics ('Chaldeans') in the last three centuries and the division is quite relevant.

So I think they would've had to do sonething about Roman Catholicism and its expansionism. The Catholics ended up destroying some of the traditions of the Church in India, and even murdered some priests.

Maybe it could've been Nestorian missionaries sent to the Roman Catholics and all of this happening in reverse instead. But there are all those established religions in Asia while RCs just had to deal with 'pagans' and were the majority hundreds of miles away from Rome. Now they have their own city state whereas I. S. is murdering Church of the East monks at this moment.

So clearly it's the CoE and its descendants (which I'm actually part of) who play on hard mode, while the West is on easy mode. They should be rewarded.

We must encourage ideas such as classical liberalism, free markets, and free trade. Simply teaching basic economics should be enough.

Just in America or across the world? What makes you think that people are lonelier or more depressed now than before in history?
>>
>>2909626
Young people nowadays believe they can get everything but life's a bitch and not everything is possible.

You have to deal with life not being like everything you see in the media, lifesyle magazines, blogs, social media, celebrities. In order to be happy search for yourself and be that person regardless of what other people think.

Given that the apostles all died horrible deaths in the name of their faith, how can anyone deny that the resurrection was true?

People don't willingly die for a lie they made up.

Corsica belonged to Genoa. Corsican is a dialect of Tuscan. Their culture is very similar to Sardinia, which is italian.
Corsica was bought by the french in the mid 1700s.
They are italian.

Why are there so many capitalists pretending to be libertarian?
108 posts and 11 images submitted.
>>
Left-Libertarianism is a contradiction in terms at anything beyond the most local of levels. Anarcho-communists require a State, or at the very least the introduction of force, to ensure the redistribution of goods.

Left-libertarianism only works in a situation where everyone involved has volunteered to share goods, even a single person voluntarily choosing not to participate breaks the system, making it viable for running a monastery but nothing larger then that.

The typical Leftist response to the above is that by "hoarding" his goods, the productive person has himself initiated violence against the masses. The typical Rightist response to that argument is "Go fuck yourself with a rake" or "Get a job hippy", which I will reiterate here for completeness.

How was it possible for a man to support his wife from ~1815 - ~1970 but today women working is a necessity for most couples?

Our society is so technologically advanced that fewer people than ever should be working but today both genders work outside the home.

Dual income families led to rampant inflation, increased consumption and economic growth, and normalization of new economic standards. Nothing is stopping us from going back to that but who wants to live in a fucking hovel and half the household income.
>>
>>2908398
The standard of living has risen enormously. All that extra stuff and services that are considered part and parcel of modern life need to be produced.
>>
>>2908398
Also this was more of a middle class thing (tho say post-WW II was maybe widespread) - poor people frequently could not make ends meet with only one person in the household working.

Even if the wife stayed at home, daughters of poor families would likely need to work.
