Why doesn't the foremost living Catholic have faith in God? Surely the Almighty will protect his representitive
to all humanity. And if the Lord decides its his tume to go, no glass will stop divine judgement, so it just makes him look like a first class hypocrite.

If the decision was up to the Pope and only him, he'd probably diss it. But it'd be a terrible idea to take the risk, i'm guessing the first function of this bulletproof car is dissuasion, so people can actually enjoy seeing the Pope and not feel like someone is going to pull a gun on the old man any moment.

But the church of Rome is the True Church! What weapon formed by man can circumvent the will of God? And surely its God's will that there is a Pope, or else there wouldnt be one. Does the Church think God wont protect his Emissary? O them of little faith.

Hi /his/,

Found this in our storage from when my grandfather died and I'm not sure of the story of this item(when it's from, what it might've been used for) grandfather was a Swiss tank gunner who went AWOL to Canada near the end of WWII if that helps. Anyone know what it is? Will follow up with another pic

What were some of the roles of Meditteranean people after the fall of Rome and into the early middle ages? I feel like medieval European history just mixed up the two peoples. Were they just disbanded and under Germanic rule? How do they come into history after the fall?

2) Which two people were mixed up?

>>2608128
Sorry i didnt clarify. 1.Italians, Spaniards, Greeks.
2. All northern europeans and southern europeans
>>
>>2608123

They were inevitably, eventually BLEACHED and became one with the barbarians. THEN the Muslims went and BROWNED them back a little with their invasions.

/pol/itics aside, I like to think the Greeks/ Romans/ Spaniards stood out, played their parts, and then just kinda faded in with the rest of us. They passed the torch on, so to speak. If you are curious about specifics, most historic texts cite the population of Rome specifically going down as other cities and places became more important to the ancient/ medieval world (Byzantium, Britain, France, Germany, etc). Italy became less important, with the exceptions being Venice and Genoa and maybe a few others. Less importance usually equals less people.

Why do people call themselves "non-denominational Christians" when they believe in the same exact thing as Baptists and Pentecostals?

Everyone instinctively realizes the bias that undermines a Denominational position so they seek to distance themselves.

I legitimately think it has to do with Baptists having a negative "redneck" stereotype.

I don't get those cunts. I was christian growing up and realised my views weren't compatible with the creed so I simply left the church rather than cherrypicking my beliefs and larping as if it was okay all along. NewAge faithfags need to be gassed.

In my world history textbook, there is a unit on post-WW2 Europe. It starts talking about the bad things that Stalin did after World War 2, and it says this:
>He purged thousands of returning soldiers and ordinary civilians in 1945 and 1946, and he revived the terrible forced-labor camps of the 1930's. Culture and art were purged of Western influences, Orthodox Christianity again came under attack, and Soviet Jews were accused of being pro-Western and anti-socialist.
>Soviet Jews were accused of being pro-Western and anti-socialist.

It makes this claim, yet it does not back it up with anything. Is it trying to stretch certain problems Stalin had with specific people to mean all of the Soviet Jews, or is this just essentially the ad hitlerum argument as to why Stalin was bad, because he hated Jews.

Genuinely interested to see specifics of his antisemitism or any Soviet antisemitism.

It's a fucking textbook, not a scientific publication.

>Is it trying to stretch certain problems Stalin had with specific people to mean all of the Soviet Jews
There's no need to stretch anything, Soviets were somewhat OK with Jews only through Lenin's rule. Stalin had issues with Jews both on personal level (his kids married Jews and he didn't like it), political level (Trotski, Jagoda, Jezhov...) and geopolitical level, once Israel decided to join the West side. Soviets also suppressed awareness of Holocaust and claimed Jews to be rootless cosmopolitans disloyal to socialist cause.

"Marxists" are always degenerate rich white kids with pampered lives that is why they always obsess over black people and bend over backwards to bring them into their movements as a way to establish legitimacy. They also seem to LOVE lumpen proles as well even though the prophet Marx said they are counter revolutionary.

Did you know that the modern day ska movement is symbolic of the working class fighting their way up to the upperclass. That's the dance is a punch and a kick.

When the Jamaicans moved to the America's (the founders of ska influenced music) they had to shave off their dreadlocks so they wouldn't get caught in the machines. Thus going by the name "Skinheads"

So it's ironic that the skinhead movement isn't actually a racist movement. But rather got polluted by neo-Nazi's adopting the stereotypes "in the 80's, I think".

Memes aside anon, you could probably argue secularly that certain individuals are more qualified to lead society than others are. For instance, most kings are superior in that they were more well-educated or forward-thinking than other individuals. Inbreeding and degeneracy set aside, most kings were set up to be more well-educated than the general populace and thus entrusted to make certain laws rather than letting the people vote on it. While this may not have worked in practice, theoretically it'd be a secular justification.

Looking at individuals like Caesar or Bonaparte or even within Republican societies, like Lincoln (inb4 confederates), Roosevelt (the first one of course), and Washington proving themselves to be superior individuals prior to taking office.
