What's the point of life if you don't become a Great Man of history

I don't have to worry about that , I am a great man

THE TELOS OF LIFE WITHIN THE KOSMOS IS TO ERADICATE "EVIL" IN ALL ITS MANIFESTATIONS, AND TO TRANSCEND THE KOSMOS.
THE TERM "GREAT MAN" IS A MISNOMER; A "GREAT MAN", AS DEFINED BY THE "GREAT MAN THEORY" IS REALLY A "FAMOUS MAN" —A MAN OF FAME—; FAME AS THE TELOS OF —HUMAN— LIFE WITHIN THE KOSMOS IS AN ABOMINABLE NOTION THAT ONLY A TURANOBARBARIAN WOULD BE CAPABLE OF CONCEIVE.
A LIFE, THE TELOS OF WHICH IS FAME, IS NOT A LIFE WORTH LIVING.

Can someone explain to me why a civilization as antique and illustrious as China didn't produce much impressive architecture, comparatively speaking? I've been to Xian, Beijing etc. And it really doesn't even begin to compare to even some of the more minor places in Europe, India and the Middle East.

I guess you need to actually go there. The Forbidden City is one of the most underwhelming historical sites I have ever visited.
Chinese architecture is just like big barns.

What is the purpose of prayer if God has already predetermined everything in His divine plan?

Well what would the point of not praying be then?

>>2486894
It gives humans facing imminent tragedy something to occupy their minds with other than their incipient misery. Atheists love misery though so it's no great surprise they hate prayer so much.

Let's be honest here, geographic determinism is more right than wrong. Geography is literally the most important thing in determining historical trajectory.
Sure it's not the only thing, but how can you compare people in Central Africa, surrounded on all sides by jungle and thousands of miles and the world's largest desert from the nearest civilization, no navigable rivers, and no way of traveling that far to Italy, smack dab in the middle of every important thing happening, easy access to the Mediterreanean and a temperate climate and say these two people should develop equally?? IQ 200 supermen would not be able to do much in Congo before modern times except realize it's shit and try to move
Is it any coincidence that the longest civilizations in Africa (Egypt, Nubia, Ethiopia) are ALL on the path of the Nile? These all involved heavy black population btw so race has nothing to do with it. Why did the Middle East "decline"? Because it is now a desertified shithole. It didn't just become retarded overnight. It just keeps smacking you in the face constantly that environment literally determines 80% of a nation's fate

Okay then tell me why Semites, Southern Europeans, Egyptians etc. all had civilization thousands of years before "superior" white people? Why did white people need to get their alphabet, law, order, philosophy, math, science, religion and every other civilization basis from brown people or "shitskin" Greeks and Italians? White people independently developed little more than what West Africans did.
The only way to keep a racial view is to say that Mediterraneans are the best and everyone else is a retard. You cannot have your cake and eat it too

Popular culture seems to regard him as an evil monster but what did he actually do to earn this kind of vitrol?

He protected and defended the Romanov family from foreign hostile forces that wanted them a dead.
It's no accident that they were only butchered after his death.

If you actually read up on it most of what you heard about him is fictitious.
>>
>>2494467
He was a con man as far as im aware, though most of the stuff was just rebel propaganda since they needed any excuse to throw shit at the romonovs.

Has radical politics supplanted religion as the predominant institution in Western society? We can see many aspects of this in the actions of beliefs of SJW's/Communists/Alt-Right/Nationalists/Libertarians etc. that almost perfectly mimic the way Abrahamic religions work
>Unquestioning adherence to dogma
>Reverance for prophets (Marx, Rothbard, Trotsky)
>Use of holy books (Das Capital, Mein Kampf, Atlas Shrugged)
>Proselytization of their beliefs to others
>Those who deviate from the norm are deemed as 'heretics' (revisionists/cucks)
>Occasionally take their beliefs to the extreame and violently act upon them (Existence of left and right wing terrorism)

No, radical demographic change has shaped politics and caused people to radicalise, some wish to resist the invaders others wish to welcome them with open arms and ingratiate themselves with them.
