Why did he always go for women young enough to have been his daughter? I have wondered ever since I discovered him why he never wanted a woman his age? I am a woman with no interest what-so-ever in men even 1 day younger than I am (33 years), let alone 20 years, and didn't even like teen boys when I was a teen myself. Please explain why so many powerful men have always gone for women much younger than they were despite looking older than their real age themselves?

Young women are more fertile and attractive.
While men accumulate gravitas as they age.

Men age like wine, women age like milk. Dating younger women was the one thing Hitler undisputedly did right.
>>
>>2614799
jee I wonder why
you said yourself you, AS A WOMAN, are interested in OLDER men (or, at least, you implied so by saying you are not interested in younger ones)
Now since everything goes in balance, if women are interested in older men, what comes from it?
You get it
And if you weren't such a historylet, you'd know men marrying younger women has basically been the norm, or at least widely practiced, since the dawn of civilisation

Socialism didnt take on in any western democracy. A better question would be why American workers settled for a smaller welfare state than Europeans

How advanced was ancient India?

It had a pretty violent collapse at the end of the Indus Valley culture, that set it back a lot

But yeah, it's typically been in the top three or so civilizations in terms of technological and artistic development.

>>2614654
Similar to the Aztecs.

Brilliant maths and astronomy, for more or less religious purposes. Fantastic architecture and a storied history/culture.

They lacked a lot by way of material sciences and were pretty simplistic economically, at-least in comparison to Europe and the Middle East.

JH Elliott - Empires of the Atlantic World
John Kessell - Spain in the Southwes

How come during the age of colonial empires the Spanish were the only ones to annex European land in a colonial fashion? Other countries, especially Britain, had plenty of opportunity.

Was it because of Habsburgs?

>U CAN'T NO NUFFIN
Why do a lot of philosophers and theologists get mad when scientists or mathematicians use objective means to find non subjective truths?
320 posts and 13 images submitted.

Because it exposes them as hacks and leeches on society. Philosophy and theology ceased being important from Copernicus, Galileo onwards.
>>
>U CAN'T NO NUFFIN

Obviously true statement. Even your own fetishization of reason and so-called objectivity are entirely faith-based beliefs.
>>
>>2614574
Wtf i thought contemporary scientists abandoned the term "truth" and adopted "intersubjectivity".

Thank you op for demonstrating us that empirical sciences are the true path to objective truth. I thought sciences worked on mutable paradigms, but you have obviously proven me wrong.

While some theists support the teleological argument on the basis that there are many 'constants' that must fall within a certain extremely narrow range in order for life to exist in the universe, perhaps this argument actually fails for the following reason:

Why suppose that The Big Bang Theory is like a deck of cards that could have been shuffled differently and turned out another way? Why not think that The Big Bang Theory is more like a gun that shot out the universe in the precise way that it did and there's no other way it could have happened?
