Eastern or western philosophy?
>>2598909
Western is objectively superior, Eastern philosophy hasn't substantially developed in 1000 years.
Besides this, they get wrapped up in religious ideology almost every single time.
the absolute is just as religious
>>2598909
Why not both for a holistic approach?
How mad would most American Christian fundamentalists be if they knew what the Founding Fathers actually believed in?
>>2598885
Depends how it was presented to them. A rationalization is almost guaranteed though.
>>2598885
They discriminated Catholics, they're hypocrites.
>implying the Founders all had the same beliefs
How did people survive famines?
by eating food
>>2598770
how did they eat when there's no food?
>>2598765
famines do not mean there is no food they mean there is not enough food.
Why is it that ethnic mixing in an historical context is always framed as rape?
Is it to persevere the notion of feminine virtue and loyalty?
Look, if you know female nature, then you know they love conquers and despise the conqured. So in all likelihood pretty much all of he historical race mixing was consensual sex.
End the rape baby meme. It harms actual academic research, in the name of blue piled feels and shit.
>>2598761
The rapebabby bullshit is just a /pol/ meme, but you're kidding yourself if you think it was consensual in "fuck yeah foreign alpha studs" sense rather than "better find a hubby among the invaders so he'll protect me from his fellows" sense.
Did you come from r9k?

Most women are based af they don't care they watch brutal fight videos for fun.

What do you know about Nordic history? Is this accurate?
Pretty much. Denmark and Norway eventually came to their senses and stopped. Sweden kept the tradition going until early 18th century.
>>2598798
Denmark really is the best of the Nordic countries
>>2598817
Iceland master race!
Why was the Greek Pantheon full of cucks?
Hepheastus especially.
T. Ares.
when women are sluts everyone's a cuck
>>2598630
Greek mythology teaches that women are evil but beautiful
>>2598630
Ares, you're a goat fucking βάρβαρος whose only redeeming factor is being my pathetic brother. Now shut up and go back to fucking the harlot, or I'll beat you silly with a boulder again.

Why did the Mongols abandon Nestorianism?
>>2598496
Because having four to five wives is more fun
>>2598496
Islam was probably more appealing military and politically as well as Buddhism. Nestorianism and Manichaeism didn't seem to fare as well with the authorities. I'm curious about any discourse between them.
I recently found out that since the 16th century my ancestors have all stemmed out of Northern England. This had me thinking
What would it mean to say that someone is 99% British origin?
Does it mean that you are 99% descended from the original settlers of Britain? If so, where did they come from? Why isn't their place of origin before they came to Britain considered your origin?
I'm probably being retarded as I have no real understanding of this. Pls help
Pic unrelated
>>2598366
>What would it mean to say that someone is 99% British origin?
If by British you mean Britons, then it mean you're a Native Briton.
If you mean otherwhise then it mean nothing cause according to my understanding the term "British citizen" is opposed to the term "English Native"
>>2598459
Where did the native Britons come from, is that known?
Damn I wish we were actually taught about this in school
>>2598553
I mean before they settled on the West of what is Modern Britain
Why do people keep perpetuating the "National identity didn't exist before the 19th century" meme?
>>2598215
The entire Old Testament is a nationalist text.
Basically they're globalists who want to discredit nationalism.
Because nationalism is an enemy of both revolutionary communism and globalism, the two main intellectual traditions in the world today, towards which most historians adere to.
Because it didn't. Do you really think a farmer in 18th century Denmark had a national identity or even understood the notion of nationhood? He would primarily identify with whatever village he was from or farm or family.
How did this place go from a Brit colony to a Chink colony?
>>2597960 t's not a chink colony unless you live in Chinatown or Vancouver. Canada is a big country this isn't /pol/ we don't need bait threads.
>>2597960
The korean and vietnam wars caused lot of people to emigrate since living in a warzone is pretty shit. Couldn't immigrate in america cause war so they just moved slightly more north to Vancouver.
And yes the asian problem isn't as bad as we make it out to be but it's a nice meme to have for /pol/ and /int/.
How good was he?
>>2597914
Hannibal barca said Alexander the great and Pyrrhus of Epirus are the greatest generals in history
>>2597914
you could say he had pyrrhic success at best :3
>>2599331
He only said that to piss off Scipio who was at the same table.
Pyrrhus literally failed in Italia and his name literally defines a victory so bad it may as well be a loss.
How good was German manufacturing and engineering during WW2?
was it comparable to the U.S.?
>>2597839
>How good was German manufacturing and engineering during WW2?
How are you even defining these terms? Are you talking battle quality of individual pieces of kit? Are you talking streamlining of the manufacturing process itself? Are you talking about how well things worked from a mechanical side?
>>2597839
>was it comparable to the U.S.?
Heavens no.
>>2597851
All of those things
Not Bantu black, but black nonetheless.

Are muslims afraid of satanists?
In my country (((Canada))) the liberals have basically come out as satanists. While simultaneously importing shitloads of muslims. Which is why I ask.
http://news.nationalpost.com/full-comment/rex-murphy-actually-witchcraft-is-a-pretty-good-explanation-for-all-thats-happening-in-ontario
Thankfully they will most likely lose the next election, but I just was wondering what brown people think of this.
Please don't send me back to /pol/ it's full of rancid animal porn.
>inb4 kuffars say yes because the "muslim God" is just a Satanic Moon God or compare them Al-lāt, Al-‘Uzzá and Manat
>>2597801
Can you answer the question please? I'm pretty sure they don't get along but I am not exactly sure.
