Life doesn't have a purpose. The FUNCTION of life is to spread genes, but not really "your" genes, just the genepool to which you belong.

Fascists are militant social collectivists who are obsessed with sex/reproduction/race issues and operate conspiratorially in politics - so, in order to make themselves seem credible, they always have to find enemies that they can portray as being even more threateningly collectivist, obsessed with sex/reproduction/race issues, and conspiratorial than they themselves are. And if such enemies do not exist, fascists will invent them. Fascism requires a certain kind of narrative to sustain its own emotional thrust - the nation is surrounded by enemies and in danger, society is crumbling and needs revival, and so on. Of course fascists are no better than the enemies they supposedly fight, but stupid people get sucked into the narrative just like they get sucked into cults like Scientology or Bolshevism.

Because anyone paying attention can tell that the left lost the economic argument when the Soviet Union fell and are now attempting to implement a new type of relativism that is based on uniting "oppressed" minority groups with different interests against the one common enemy of western civilization.

There is extensive evidence for a history of cow worship in cave art from paleolithic Spain, Hindu veneration of the cow, Minoan motifs, Greek mythology (Zeus' association with the bull), Egyptian mythology (Hathor), Sumerian (the bull of heaven killed by Gilgamesh), and the Levant (the gods Ba'al Hadad and El, not to mention of course the golden calf mentioned in the Bible.) Beyond this, we have the veneration of cattle to modern day pastoralist groups throughout the MENA desert regions.

So the question is, just how far did this cattle cult stretch in the ancient world and where did it begin? It doesn't seem to have ever existed beyond the scope of the modern Indo-European and Afro-Asiatic spheres.

Is there any claim for ritual sexual intercourse between cows and humans?
>>
>>2861210
I can't really comment on the spread outside of the area you mentioned but I suppose it would spread anywhere ancient people kept cattle. In western Slovenia, old beliefs supposedly survived into the mid-20th century (some say small communities have managed to carry on the old beliefs into the 21st century, even) - among them the worship of the black bull in the sky, which was in the 1920s said to be worshipped by shepherds.

How did probably one of the most based MENA nations manage to crumble in the 1970s? Reading into its history, it seems like Iran was always a place of intellect, art, and advancement. I can't understand how it could move so far backwards in such a short amount of time like it did since the Islamic Revolution.

Well for one thing, many of Iran's brightest minds fled the country as soon as they could. That's what people like Erdogan don't understand - you can ride religious hicks to power, but it's a short term gain only - in the long term it creates brain drain and capital flight out of your nation.

The Qajar dynasty fucked up a bunch by being so pathetically weak and ruining Iranian power. Even then Iran is one of the more diversified and industrialized economies in the ME and they produce much better cultural output than any other country in the region

Hitler wasn't anti white. Every white country that fought against him besides maybe what would be current day Russia is now on its way to replacing its native population with foreigners of a different race. Therefore, hitler was literally the only power who turned out to not be anti white outside of the USSR which doesn't exist anymore. It's pretty simple.

>killed half of Paris
>60% of London
>wiped out entire towns and cities leaving literal ghost towns
>hit Asia hard
>hit Muslims hard
This plague basically affected the entire known world, and wiped out a third of Europe and a fifth of the planet. I'm surprised this plague doesn't get nearly the same attention as other events in history.

We've been going though a Nordic pagan craze these past couple of years. In the early 2000s it was the Celtic paganism which was all the rage. Who knows, maybe in the future when Nordic paganism is out of style the Egyptian paganism will come in vogue.

Assuming that they both actually have the powers people say they had... Jesus. He actually has divine power- he's not just a messenger of a greater power, he can conjure food from nothing, reattach body parts, and cure any ailment.

Mohammed is just a guy who talked to an angel. The only advantage he has is that he is much more willing to take violent action than Jesus ever was, but then again what use is that if Jesus can just ignore his attacks with his mega healing?
