>Christianity robbed us of the harvest of the culture of the ancient world, it later went on to rob us of the harvest of the culture of Islam. The wonderful Moorish cultural world of Spain, more closely related to us at bottom, speaking more directly to our senses and taste, than Greece and Rome, was trampled down (—I do not say by what kind of feet—): why? because it was noble, because it owed its origin to manly instincts, because it said Yes to life even in the rare and exquisite treasures of Moorish life!… Later on, the Crusaders fought against something they would have done better to lie down in the dust before—a culture compared with which even our nineteenth century may well think itself very impoverished and very ‘late.’—They wanted booty, to be sure: the Orient was rich…. But let us not be prejudiced! The Crusades—higher piracy, that is all! German knighthood, Viking Knighthood at bottom, was there in its element: the Church knew only too well what German knighthood can be had for…. The German knights, always the ‘Switzers’ of the Church, always in the service of all the bad instincts of the Church—but well paid…. That it is precisely with the aid of German swords, German blood and courage, that the Church has carried on its deadly war against everything noble on earth! A host of painful questions arises at this point. The German aristocracy is virtually missing in the history of higher culture: one can guess the reason…. Christianity, alcohol—the two great means of corruption.

Safe to say Nietzsche was the most profound philosopher who ever lived? You can't even comprehend him without reading him dozens of times.

It's more like anarchic distributism. Jesus wouldn't have even begun to understand socialist rhetoric about industrialists, capitalists, and the one percent. Plus r9k is anarchistic in the sense that they want their NEET bux but don't want to work.

they're both blind with impotent rage. nietzsche is a glorified edgelord. a man of shit health and all kinds of social ineptitude talking about strength and power and societal order. that's not to say he wasn't a great philosopher but he had his flaws.

it's like DFW's endless quest and endless failure to be human, or whatever he thought that would / should be. i might read IJ and i might enjoy the elaborate quirkiness and the witty jokes but i'm not gonna take his This Is Water bs seriously since here we have a guy who amassed several hundred volumes of self help literature and then kurt cobained himself.

Most likely because the further civilization progresses, the greater the gap between the wealthy (minority) and the semi-wealthy and non-wealthy (i.e. majority), and the more stressful life becomes for the majority, hence increased alcohol consumption.

"Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own?"

Bullshit, there's implicit endorsement of private property in the Gospels through this parable.

That anon is correct, the furthest you could stretch it, even if you ignored Paul's epistles, is distributism.

>>
>>7643082
Christ was an Essene, and they abhorred private property. The first Christian society is described in Acts as having no private property.

I'm not saying Jesus favored some kind of revolution (because fighting over material wealth would make you just as bad), but he thought private property was generally a spiritual weight.
>>
>>7642704
>mfw people always forget that Nietzsche admired true Christians
Yeah, but he also said the only true Christian was Jesus, i.e. the "teachings of Christ" as Christians know it aren't even fucking accurate to what Jesus taught.

Read the Gospel of Thomas from the Nag Hammadi Library. It opens with "Whoever discovers the interpretation of these sayings will not taste death." as said by Jesus. He goes on to more or less regurgitate the Buddha and meant to lead you on the path to the realization that the fear of death can be overcome by reducing yourself (and you consist of your five senses, five in a House, five Trees in Paradise — "there is no organ for truth" as Nietzsche said) to utter simplicity of being and eradicating the divide between life and death in your world view; in other words life is an illusion. The original sin is the initial mistake of not knowing this when we are born and simply venturing into the world taking the illusion for granted. This thought process is essentially Buddhism, which has its foundation in Taoism — in the Tao Te Ching you can see that the "myriad things" is brought upon by our judgment but is an illusion and is not the "eternal Way."

The Kingdom of Heaven is inside you. Which means to get to it, you have to change yourself on the inside. It's not a place, certainly not a promised land. Afterlife was never promised by Jesus. In fact, he was almost directly saying that there is none. If he understood the teachings of Buddha, which it appears he did pretty well, then he understood there to be none, and the only way out of the Hell of the "myriad things" i.e. Legion is to softly kill the world (reduce your mind to a null state).

If we're using ascetics as a societal standard, all of them are gommunist by his reasoning, or lack thereof.
>>
>>7643138
Christ wasn't an ascetic. John the Baptist was, but Christ wasn't. Christ ate fish and drank wine (which he was criticized for). He thought it was great being anointed by expensive oils.

Christ was strongly against possessiveness of property, but not against its use.
>>
>>7643107
And what is Nietzsche's response to this?
>>
>>7643107
There are literally dozens of 'gospels' out there, all of them with various things said or not said.

You just like this one, and not, say, the Gospel of Mary Magdalene, because of "muh buddhism."
>>

Doesn't the Nietzch slam the Buddhists at some points as well though? My reading of him is pretty weak admittedly.

His misreading of Islam is quite embarrassing. Muslims are weak and cunning, perhaps even moreso than the Jews. The vile resentment and hatred that he condemns the Jews for in the Genealogy are just as present in the saracen, particularly in their doctrine of taqiyya. There is nothing knightly about the muslim.
>>

moreover, he didn't grasp how life denying islamic asceticism by way of sharia is, he only thought islam was cool cuz european faggots used to go to north african and bugger little arab boys, nietzsche should have studied islam instead of hearing second hand tales of oriental faggotry...say...nietzche likes catholics, muslims and greeks...seem to be a theme of faggotry through all his favorite shit! the protestants and especially the puritans said no to taking dicks up the ass because that leads to disease and degeneracy, not earthly prosperity...man, the more you think about it the more nietzsche is a hypocritical little bich and martin luther and calvin have a more life affirming idea about life than any syphilitic shutin aka nietzsche

16:106 is usually cited by muslims as the sole ground for the doctine, and that indeed is confinded to denial of faith to protect your person or community. Unfortunately this assertion is itself a kind of taqiyya about taqiyya - I call it metataqiyya. Surah 3:28 is the Qur'anic grounds for the doctrine of taqiyya which they don't want you to know about, which I assure you is well established throughout classical Islamic jurisprudence. It preaches thorough deception of all non-muslims - never to be treated as authentic allies despite appearances - 'in prudence'.

>Let not believers take disbelievers as allies rather than believers. And whoever [of you] does that has nothing with Allah , except when taking precaution against them in prudence. And Allah warns you of Himself, and to Allah is the [final] destination.

One of Mohammad's closest companions, Abu Darda, is reported to have boasted that 'we smile at some although we curse them in our hearts' - a statement reported by Al-Bukhari and repeated by Ibn Kathir in his respected commentary on this passage. He then reports that Al-Hasan similarly boasted that 'taqiyya is allowed until the Day of Resurrection'.

Never take a contemporary muslim's statement about the contents of their faith at face value. They are snakes.
>>
>>7645175
Taqiyya is a purely shi'a doctrine. The statement from Hasan is a shi'a hadith. Dissimulation was important for shi'ites because their doctrine was subversive.
>>
>>7645175
The "we smile at them" statement was in reference to the period where the Muslims were being tortured and executed by the Meccans. Dissimulation was only permissible before jihad was declared. It's not part of jihad.

Under the Arab, the standard attained was wholly admirable; to [Islamic] Spain flocked the greatest scientists, thinkers, astronomers, and mathematicians of the world, and side by side there flourished a spirit of sweet human tolerance and a sense of purist chivalry. Then with the advent of Christianity, came the barbarians. Had Charles Martel not been victorious at Poitiers -already you see the world had already fallen into the hands of the Jews, so gutless a thing Christianity! -then we should in all probability have been converted to Mohammedanism, that cult which glorifies the heroism and which opens up the seventh Heaven to the bold warrior alone.

Acquire any book on any of the four schools of Sunni Islamic jurisprudence. I guarantee you will not even find the word taqiyya in any of them. Pick any language you like, pick any time period. You don't even find it in encyclopedic works like The Distinguished Jurist's Primer by Ibn Rushd. It is a non-existent topic in Sunni Islam. Even in Shi'ism it's only applied when they can't profess Shi'ism openly (btw, the existence of taqiyya is the reason there are so many blatantly secret Shi'ite sects, like the Druze, the Ismailis, or /pol/'s beloved Alawites).

Basically all those mathematicians and philosophers lived under royal patronage. They weren't some rogues living underground and getting killed when they got caught. They were part of the Caliph's court, living high on the hog. The closest thing to what you're saying is Ibn Rushd getting exiled, but that's an odd case. Ibn Sina, Al-Farabi, Al-Razi, Ibn Bajjah, and Ibn Tufail all lived under royal patronage and died natural deaths. The last two were viziers, for fuck's sake!

It's mostly dwelled on because of how different that is from Christianity, where denying Christ is considered something you never do, even if it meant dying. Muslims can't really have martyrs like Christians do because of this, so they call people who die in combat, martyrs, which of course Christians could never do because dying in combat is not martyrdom, even if you're defending the Church.

A Muslim is still considered a martyr if they are killed for not denying their faith, and that is actually considered better than dissimulating.

The first martyr in Islam is Sumayya, who was killed for refusing to deny Islam. There were others like Bilal and Suhayb who were tortured or beaten for refusing to renounce Islam. The option to deny the faith in order to escape death is considered a dispensation for weaker willed people, it's not something Muslims are commanded or required to do. In fact, the Koran says that remaining steadfast is better, even if you're killed.
>>
>>7647813
I'm not Muslim, and Trump will never be president. The kikes who decide the presidency aren't going to allow that.
>>
>>7647823
But you know what I'm saying, there isn't a massive tradition of martyrs in Islam, and that is why Islam has to refer to people who died in combat as martyrs. The Emperor of Constantinople actually tired to pressure Christianity into doing this, to which he was told that killing people is always a sin, even in war--it might be understandable, but dying while doing it precludes you from being a martyr.

The Martyrs of Karbala were mostly non-combatants who were slaughtered by the Umayyad troops after the actual Battle of Karbala. Their status as martyrs is attested to by both Shi'ites and Sunnis.

There's also the martyrdom of the mystic al-Hallaj, which is eulogized in Sufi poetry in many Muslim countries.

And the status of combatant mortars is controversial in Christianity. Medieval Catholic works show that it was commonly asserted that Crusaders who died in battle were martyrs, though that does clash with certain earlier and later Catholic doctrine on martyrdom. Martin Luther on the other hand said that soldiers who fought fighting Turks were definitely martyrs.
>>
