>Is homosexuality truly wrong?

No, breeder scum who overpopulate the world are far worse

>And has the Anglophone world with its concepts of a society built around the individual fostered the development of liberal attitudes towards such things as homosexuality?

No, a higher IQ from better nutrition and education has done that

>I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else.

Therefore, God exists, therefore everything I say is true.

Of course, if you're going to protest is better to not disturb anyone. That's the kind of manifestation that people remember.

Goes into the history of Western Philosophy and thought. If you don't know a lot about philosophy and want a digestible book, I would recommend. Very long though.

These two are, to me, the best bio on Hitler out there. Very long though and very detailed. However, the author knows his stuff. Was knighted for his scholarship.

Yes britain was a key player but not as important as the french or the Russian.

Niall Ferguson is not a reputable historian

Almost as bad as those """historians""" who play down the idea of trench warfare being absolute hell. Almost.

And his counter-arguments:

>Ferguson claims Germany was Europe's most anti-militarist country
>British chose alliances with France and Russia as a form of appeasement due to the strength of those nations, and an Anglo-German alliance failed to materialize due to German weakness
>Germany posed no threat to Britain before 1914, and that all British fears of Germany were due to irrational anti-German prejudices
>Ferguson claims that the only limitations on more military spending before 1914 were political, not economic
>If Germany had been victorious, something like the European Union would have been created in 1914, and that it would have been for the best if Britain had chosen to opt out of war in 1914
>Most Europeans were saddened by the coming of war
>Ferguson argues the opposite
>The Allies "squandered" their economic resources
>The German Army was superior
>The Germans were more efficient at killing the Allies
>Ferguson argues most soldiers fought more or less willingly
>British routinely killed German POWs
>Ferguson argues that Germany could easily have paid reparations had there been the political will

It's usually "non institutional" Buddhism. ie. They read books on Buddhism and fancy themselves as such.

First you need to become a fedora neckbeard.
Then you throw your fedora away and assumes your new identity as a hipster to be with the cool kids
You become vegan because that's what the other kids do
You are against violence because you're an effeminate twink anyway
The you feel the need to connect with your "spiritual" side, but it CAN'T be Christianity
Then you read about Buddhists don't believe in a supreme deity and you feel like it matches your new identity perfectly
You don't have to take any risks of being ridiculed because you don't have to commit to any metaphysical view
You can still be a hipster faggot
You interpret Buddhist teachings as to reflect your urbanite daddy issues
You become a western """"Buddhist""""

>>2479302
>2016
First they hear about Buddhism from media/friends/internet/etc.
Then they take interest and read about it a bit or watch movies/documentaries about it.
Then comes research and fascination.
Then they take the jump and visit a local buddhist temple/"church".
They may accept the local monk as their teacher and ask for initiation into monkhood if they're devout.
Lastly is the moving to another country like India/Srilanka/Burma/Japan/etc to live out a more simplistic lifestyle.

That's a hard fucking question m8 and I am Hungarian.
I think the feelings about the fall were mixed. Many of the older people remembered the war so they were more supportive of the communist regime. The younger people especially the intelligentsia wanted change and the universities were the hubs of these intelectuelle circles. Of course in retrospect they were very idealistic since they thought that they will be able to make a decent country out of this shithole.

>>2475865
Hard question or not I appreciate the response my man. But essentially it is similar to most countries which go through a revolution; the older population are more concerned with the tradition of the country while the young are idealistic and believe any change they make will be a positive one.

What was life like for the average individual, or for you if you were alive during the period? Wasn't there a bit of a food shortage at some point in the 80's?

>>2475917
Not the same anon
Different everywhere. My granddad was a party secretary, this might sound like a big deal but they were kindof office comissars at corporations who made sure the activities of the employees fit party doctrine. By the time my granddad got the job, their (so his) job was softened up greatly. Anyways, they were a strongly socialist family, my dad remembers those times quite fondly. Life was simpler, you didn't have many opportunities, but no self-esteem problems or worries either. In the city (Budapest) there was no real poverty AFAIK, a spiral of debt ensured that the populus lived relatively well despite the retarded economical ideas. You had food, pretty good quality entertainment, a sense of society. Sometimes the Western relatives brought you stuff from home which were treasures sort of. You could go to state-issued holidays in party establishments, which were not exactly luxury, but no one got luxury so you were as happy with it as you could be, Hungary didn't have that feel of a constant empty, malevolent dick-measuring contest it is now. You get the hang of it, don't you? I'm sure there were darker sides of socialist life in the 80's, but that's what I heard from my family.

There is no real class of white people.

>>2474650
Second hand, but no. They don't care at all. Guilt for your ancestors wrongdoing is like the biggest first-world problem., yo

They are not white so they can't feel guilt.

That pic literally proves that they are a myth.

The commo, argument is that this verses is in opposition with the law of Moses : http://biblehub.com/deuteronomy/18-10.htm >"Let no one be found among you who sacrifices their son or daughter in the fire, who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft,"
And that Jephthah daughter's was instead "sacrificed" by becoming a servant of the lord, thus never marrying anyone.

>>2474314
The passage literally says "burnt offering".

>>2474320
Then the Bible contradicts itself, it's not really surprising.
