Francis “Two Gun” Crowley shot a bouncer for trying to remove him from a dance hall that he wasn't invited to. Charged with attempted murder, Crowley was confronted by a police officer later that night and he shot him, too. He then joined a gang, stole a car, and robbed a bank in Westchester County.

A month later, Crowley and his friends participated in a home invasion of a wealthy real-estate broker, Rudolph Adler. Adler attempted to resist but Crowley shot him five times (Adler survived due to intervention by his dog, Trixie). Soon after that, Crowley met a girl, Virginia Brennan. They got along at first, but when she tried to leave, Crowley shot her, too, and dumped her body in a river. A week later, Crowley shot another police officer who was investigating Brennan's disappearance.

On May 7, 1931, the police finally cornered Crowley in a hotel room in New York City. The NYPD assembled a task force of 300 officers to surround the building in flush him out with tear gas. A shootout ensued, lasting roughly two hours. Only after receiving 4 gunshot wounds did Crowley finally surrender to law enforcement. Skip forward about 20 days and Crowley was tried and convicted for murder of police officer Frederick Hirsch. Sentenced to death, Crowley spent a year in Sing Sing Prison before being executed by electric chair.

Britain was able to occupy most of the major port cities but unable to enforce control of the rural areas. The Continental army sought support from France, and was able to show their viability with a decisive victory at Saratoga, which persuaded France and Spain to enter the war (not in support of the Revolution's ideals, but to undercut Britain)

Everything is predetermined. The events of the Universe follow a logical sequence that started with the Big Bang. Since then, everything was predestined to happen just the way it is. One thing causes the next to happen, and the next thing causes the next to happen. The future was already written in detail from day 1.

There is no freedom of choice. Not only is everything predetermined, but also what you call decisions are happening literally behind your eyes, in a microscopical world of cells and particles, invisible to the naked eye. Chemicals like hormones work in similar ways, giving you false feelings. Since you have no control over what happens inside your body, it's foolish to assume you have any control over yourself. And for all things concerned, the human nervous system is so unreliable that for all I care I could be the only sentient being in the Universe and what I perceive is just an illusion my brain created for itself.

There is no afterlife. Upon death, you just disappear. You don't go to heaven or hell, you don't reincarnate. Upon the destruction of your brain, your existence is erased. Everything you ever felt, thought, experienced, all your memories, deleted forever and ever.

We are just byproducts of a randomic process called evolution. Since we somehow were better at surviving than others, we stickied around. But the truth is precisely that our sentience and counsciousness are just that, a byproduct of a randomic process that makes survival easier. It could even be called an illusion. Everything we ever did - as individuals and humanity as a whole - is something with no instrict value, we're just somehow programmed to protect our own genes and have absolutely zero control over any and everything, we're just there, experiencing things, as if leaves on a flowing river, and any feeling of despair upon realizing this is just as much meaningless as everything else.

Can you help me?
Is there any way out of this?
I'd love to be convinced I'm wrong.

> false feelings
How can they be false if they are products of real things like chemicals or physical predestination? They are as real as anything else.
> deleted forever and ever
Technically nothing stops your brain from being truly recreated, probability heavily depends on the choice of cosmology here.
> we're just somehow programmed to protect our own genes
Not necessary, some of your behaviour can even be without any of such purpose, evolution allows for all kind of bullshit to stick around on an individual level.

Can a Calvinist explain to me how predestination makes any sense whatsoever? It doesn't seem to match up with philosophy, theology, or scripture. As far as I can tell it was Calvin's attempt to solve the problem that God knowing every event and choice that will happen appears to contradict free will, but it's a terrible solution.

It's not necessarily against scripture, the bible explicitly supports predestination in places.

>He hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will.

Ephesians 1:4-5
>>
>>2740883

Most Calvinist I know believe in some form of free will (usually by making tons of mental gymnastics), the most consistent Calvinists are what is called Hyper-calvinists, which usually are compatibilists though it may be consistent with the ideology but is biblically unsound when looked at holistically. Calvinists also will squirm at biblical events that contradict their worldview usually in the OT. Though God has foreknowledge of things to come and it's plainly obvious he doesn't combine them with predestination as likely what most Calvinists assume.

Molinism or 'Middle Knowledge' manages to efficiently reconcile the two seemingly contradictory stances.
I completely understand why Calvinism isn't too popular in the modern Christian world when we've had a rebuttal to determinism since the 16th Century

Wasn't a large part of the Civil War the issue over slavery and tariffs regarding the costs of labor being different in the north and south?

My friend says the civil war wasn't really about slavery and I even had a teacher in highschool say that but I don't think that's really the case.

I think when people say the war wasn't about "slavery", they mean that, in true Realpolitik fashion, whether slavery was ethical or not was of no consequence. They want to quell the fantasy of this noble blue North upholding the tenets of justice and progress when - so the argument goes - the real motivation for ending slavery was to edge southern states closer to dependence on the rest of the country. Hence when the South declares independence, they do so for the sake of "economic freedom" which essentially means slavery, the institution guaranteeing that freedom; the North does not allow them to secede not because of moral outrage or a holy mission to free the slaves but to keep the Union whole. This was Lincoln's primary motivation, at least. The more I see people point to causes other than slavery, the more I see those causes rooted in slavery. But that the secession and the war that followed it had their reasons based on pragmatism and not morality is the core of the argument.

We affirm that these ends for which this Government was instituted have been defeated, and the Government itself has been made destructive of them by the action of the non-slaveholding States. Those States have assume the right of deciding upon the propriety of our domestic institutions; and have denied the rights of property established in fifteen of the States and recognized by the Constitution; they have denounced as sinful the institution of slavery; they have permitted open establishment among them of societies, whose avowed object is to disturb the peace and to eloign the property of the citizens of other States. They have encouraged and assisted thousands of our slaves to leave their homes; and those who remain, have been incited by emissaries, books and pictures to servile insurrection.

For twenty-five years this agitation has been steadily increasing, until it has now secured to its aid the power of the common Government.

There is a lot of disinformation out there about this subject. This is a great example. A slam dunk ritual murder case, a case that could be tried today, is incredulously mocked by "academics" who rely on lying by omission.

This thread is for exploring this topic without worrying about being politically correct. Did certain Jewish lineages ritually kill Christian children throughout the middle ages? I'd say the answer is unequivocally yes.

This is a /his/ thread, so, no, we aren't theorizing about occult practices today.

Here is a collection of reports of Jewish ritual murders. It isn't vetted, the cases vary in their evidence. The interesting part to me is the sheer number of cases across a wide range of geographic locations and time periods. From a meta perspective, it seems crazy to dismiss all these reports by cherry picking one or two and "debunking them".

Was The National Recovery Administration (NIRA) the closest the United States ever came to initiating a Fascist/Corporatist economy?

Sorry, I put (NIRA) in the post when I meant (NRA); the NIRA spawned the NRA.

FDR was actually sympathetic to Mussolini early on, but the New Deal had only some overlaps with Fascist policy. Trade unions were still independent (and grew a lot in the 1930s) rather than state-controlled, and of course the government was still a representative democracy rather than a single-party dictatorship.

A lot of liberal intellectuals (and the British Fabian Society) thought that the future of society would be oriented towards a balanced relationship between labor, capital, and the state, and we were moving in this direction as late as the 1960s, but free-market ideology had a big resurgence in the late 1970s/1980s.

So a lot of conservatives nowadays circulate the idea that Martin Luther King Jr. was a Republican and a conservative, given the associations between the Democrats and the KKK especially in the South during the pre-Civil Rights era. How was King seen by conservatives/Republicans of the time and how did he view conservatives/Republicans? This is only dealing with the time period of the 1960s and the Civil Rights Movement and not the modern-day period of BlackLivesMatter/AllLivesMatter, political correctness, affirmative action, etc.

To me it seems like it's ambiguous:

Pro:
Billy Graham and Martin Luther King Jr. clearly had a close relationship, with Graham being a key supporter of the civil rights movement and sharing a close friendship with King. Nixon was the one who got serious on integrating schools in the South, supporting Brown vs. Board of Education in many Southern states that had not yet accepted it.

Against:
On the other hand, many prominent figures in the conservative movement/Republican party were also against the civil rights movement. Barry Goldwater was against the Civil Rights Act, which we can debate over whether it was the product of actual racism or more so governing philosophy (I tend to believe more so the latter over the former), but regardless it probably would've been supported by King. William F. Buckley Jr. was also against it, until later in his life when he flipped on it and said that he would've voted for the act.

So clearly there's a

No, not in the slightest. Martin Luther King, Jr. was very nearly a communist, desiring a radical reorganization of our society on fairer social, racial, and economic lines. He was rejected throughout his entire career by the black bourgeoisie for his radicalism, and revered even by militant black activists for his revolutionary worldview.
