How deep into the Real Lore are you /his/, it doesn't matter where,at this point all myths and legends are an aspect of truth of what happened.
Julius Caesar Idolizes
>Arius Didymus tells Augustus to kill the son of Caesar, Caesarion.
>writings of Sanchuniathon expressing the struggles between civilization vs barbarity.
>Phoenician theology and the deep origins of the babylonian occult mysteries
>the origins of the enmity between Carthaginians and Romans and the reason the Romans Aimed to take Parthia and Judea and the East as Alexander did.
>Original New world Order.
>The nature of Christendom
I've read into the Preparatio Evangelica, which apparently was

I don't get the picture, is having doors with different, width, height supposed to be a mind changing experience?

if for whatever reason you can't understand the significance of this massive world-spanning congruence, you probably need to deprogram yourself a little more.
I have really been looking forward to this debate Dr Rob Price vs Prof. Bart Ehrman.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GzjYmpwbHEA
I have to say that Bart seemed to destroy Price and the Jesus mythicist position is now dead, though I would still like to see him debate Carrier.
>>2568410
Shameless self bamp
Is no one else interested in the question of whether Jesus actually existed?
>>2568474
What?
I didn't realize there were mythicist who had actually done any research. I agree, Bart was so much better than Price, but it seems like that's just because his position has so much more evidence.
Was he in the wrong?
I wish he won. An even more Hellenized Rome, imagine that.
Yes
Mark Antony was the true heir of Caesar's universalist monarchy idea. Augustus tried his best to connect the incipient Principate to the Republican institutions and law.
I recently started a History related podcast, I was wondering if you guys have any suggestions/constructive criticism on this episode, it being much more researched than the last one

Listening to it right now, probably gonna finish it later, I can tell you your name is absolutley horrible. I don't know what itunes's stance is on what you can name your podcast but they would probably censor yours, probably mark it explicit.
>>2568373
Just listened to another two minutes, if I had the ability to cringe anymore I would be cringing very hard at this.
I turned it off as soon as you said "DESU, Koreans aren't actually that forward today"
I didn't realize you were actually autistic
What would of happened if Germany won the war and defeated the US and Britain?

you would get a gf and that bully in school would be put in the ovens, anon.
The Soviets WOULD HAVE steamrolled Germany.
Threads like this would be punishable by death
What can you tell me about the Révolution tranquille in Canada?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JvcEP0EjqIc
quebec was essentially catholic iran before, 50, 60 years behind the rest of europe in terms of society and even technology in some cases (my grandparents did not get a phone until 1969, even then it was a party line). the quiet revolution was we stopped having 12 inbred kids with no shoes and stopped blindly voting for whatever english politicians the priests were paid to shill for. the power vacuum was filled with nationalist and socialist politicians, giving birth to the independence movement. the french working class finally got a voice and our quality of life vastly improved.
>>2568296
So... Independence, when?
>>2568171
It's basically what killed Quebec
Before it, the Quebecers had like 10 kids by woman and were on the brink of outbreeding the Anglos and taking over Canada, then came the subhumans called CuckGaulle, he not only cucked French but then he did the same to the Quebecers.
Are there any actual historians with advanced degrees who post here? If so, what do you do for a living and how did you get your job?

>Are there any actual historians with advanced degrees who post here?
I can guarantee there aren't. This is a cointainment board to keep retards out of /lit/.
I'm a few months away from an MA in archaeology if that counts.
>>2568123
>If so, what do you do for a living and how did you get your job?
I'm still a research assistant for my university for now. The faculty in my department thought I was smart, so they started paying me to do work for them. I'm currently applying for real jobs for when I graduate.

Hello /his/
argue with me
the way Hispanics were treated historically post conquest of the area of Hispaniola was objectively worse than the manner in which africans were treated in the new world/newly formed united states.
>>2568043
>argue with me
You know what? No, I'm not going to do that today, sniff a dick.
I don't think hispanics were ever treated bad even in the most native parts of the ex-colonies.
Serfs all over the world were treated like mesoamericans and africans. The idea they are special snowflakes because they have brown skin while their masters had light skin is leftist agitation.
Is it possible that satan had a hand in corrupting the Holy Texts, or is it impossible because it's the word of God and his will?
Spirituality seems to be a medicine: surely to be 24/7 medicated and fanatical is the work of the devil?
When the mystics leave society and live alone in monasteries and mountains, is this not a rejection of the life God has given us?
>>2568038
These men walked the fine line between mortal and eternal, I'm not surprised they perpetuated religious belief, to be able to do and attain so many a great things and such.
Although I wonder did the peasentry share their stoic beliefs and ritual of a glorified and great existence or were they autonomous aetheist protoist-communist as fuck?
>>2568038
The bible says pretty directly that the world is evil and you shouldn't partake of it as much as possible. Actually enjoying life is distinctly secondary to getting into heaven.
It's no wonder Gnostics extended this into a rejection of the material world completely, the teachings were ripe for that exact interpretation.
somebody help me understand, I'm struggling
bump
give me a brief summary
>>2568389
from what I've read so far, basically the concept of "truth" is held in the same regards as the concept of "morality" as far as moral relativism goes, in that truth-value is held within context of an individual or social perspective, and I believe that supra-sense perception objectivity does not exist within this view.
I've done some reading on it and I feel like I have all of the pieces but can't figure out how they fit together, hoping someone can hold my hand a little bit who knows what they are talking about. I wouldn't care much, but from my understanding cognitive relativism is gaining a lot of traction in professional academia.
Why were the ancients so obsessed with fertility?

heirs and the continuation of a civilization.

>why is modern society so obsessed with sex?
>>2568003
they're bored
Why is it now so hard to compare civilization and to judge some better than others? I can understand every human society is complex and that Polynesians, Aztecs, Ethiopians were far from being barbarians. But on the other hand, why does it seem so hard for some people to admit Europe built the most efficient civilization as far as it's we can humanly quantify.
Is it racist to say some civilizations were more advanced than others? There is obviously a huge eurocentrist bias, but it can't invalidate everything.
>>2567965
It's because of the nazi's and american slavery. Plain and simple. They have made it taboo to point out that Europe is the best, because Europe is white, and white is racist.
>>2567965
>built
Built when? What's should the timeframe of comparison be?
Built with what? Should the relative starting positions be taken into account?
Built by whom? Where does "European achievement" begin, where does it end? What role is interaction between Europeans and non-Europeans allowed to play? Who are "Europeans"? Who are "Europeans" when?
>better
>most efficient
In what way?
>as it's we can humanly quantify
Which criteria are there that everyone would agree to be the only objectively right criteria to measure "betterness" by?
There's all sorts of value judgements and methodological disagreements involved in this discussion. It's not a surprise that people have different opinions on this.
>>2567965
thank fuck nobody holds their transgenerational wealth for long, for soon it will be purely equally merit based ie performance as to who is what in the world.

You're in a club minding your own business, when this guy is suddenly elected Chancellor of Germany and ruins Europe on an unprecedented scale that it still hasn't recovered from to this day. What do you do?

Why is Eastern Europe so irrelevant to European history? They have pretty much zero history besides Russian Empire and Byzantines (didn't have anything to do with Slavs).
>>2567719
>Why is Eastern Europe so irrelevant to European history?
Because compared to Western Europe it was basically an empty wasteland. Hell even nowadays it's still very low population density compared to the west.
>>2567719
Because the German expansion came to a halt.
what your textbooks included =/= actual full scope of history.
Why do we like games? They seem useless.
