>implying they ever recovered

Napoleon perhaps surpassed the greatness of the ancient regime but traitors in the political arena in 1814-1815 saw to it that all his work was undone.

I'd even say the restoration or Nap III was the start of something great but once again the republicans ruined france.

Republicans provoked Franco-Prussia, Republicans provoked WWI, and Republicans reluctantly went along with Chamberlain in WWII.

they kind of suck at colonizing so today french culture is not so relevant. I suppose that's something?

One is "slave" soldier of whom there were nearly 40.000 which kinda negates the elite status. On top of that their pay was pretty terrible when you look at all the shit they had to do.

The other is the polish version of Don Quixote who kept the Zlachta in power and ruined Poland.

Alright folks, listen up:

I'm genuinely trying not to bait right now, but I need to know why this is such a huge issue.

The Egyptian Empire covered a massive chunk of North African land, including modern Sudan. Assuming that they held this chunk of border for hundreds of years, couldn't a black citizen technically be classified as an ethnic Egyptian.

I'm far from being a /pol/ "negroes can't create anything" or WE WAS KANZ person, but I fail to see why this blows up the internet every time it gets brought up.

We know that, it's just comical to think there are people who honestly believe that every ancient Egyptian was black.

Most of us know Egypt is a huge melting pot.

Hi there so like I'm resident East African and Saharan Africanboo here.

Nubia begins just south of Elephantine in what is today Egypt. The history of the Sahara has gone through many complex waves, the Nile has also dealt with great surges of migration.

Suffice to say the complexity of Egyptian phenotype and Genotype goes beyond our simplistic notions of black and white. However if the question came up asking would people we percieve as black be recognized as Egyptian then the answer is absolutely yes!

Somali, Eritreans,Northern Sudanese, Ethiopians etc... All fit within the confines of what were once Egyptian phenotypes as well as more Levantine phenotypes. The latter is a result of migrations recorded as unchecked and illegal but those people are Egyptian too.

Don't let 4chan or really anyone tell you Egyptians weren't African or had a monolithic static look to them.

Black Americans also say "They were Black" but That is reactionary to the Europeanization of Egyptian imagery. I don't necessarily blame them since they too arose from Western worldviews but I'd much rather say they Egyptians were "black" rather than say "arab" because Arab isn't a race and Arabia's history is so complex.

Why did Britain have the Industrial Revolution that created the entire modern world we live in and not France?

Was it because Britain was more successful i the Transatlantic Slave Trade?

>Truly I tell you, all sins and blasphemes will be forgiven for the sons of men. But whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven, but is guilty of an eternal sin.

What did he mean by this? Is he trying to say that accusing pure good as being evil is the most sinful thing of all?

The context was "He said this because they [the Pharisees] were saying, 'He has an evil spirit'."

Also, what IS the holy spirit?

Blaspemy against the Holy Spirit is claiming that Christ's power comes from Satan and not from the LORD.

The Holy Spirit is the third person of the Trinity and it is responsible for counseling and comforting the faithful.
>>
>>2436030
Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit is denial of that which has revealed itself to you.

The context is the Pharisees said "Jesus has an evil spirit in him". The truth is that standing before them is the Lord God, whose spirit is the Holy Spirit, one part of the triune God.

So the Jews are literally standing in front of God, surrounded by the Holy Spirit, and are saying "nah fuck that, I bet it's a demon."

Jesus responds that everything is forgiveable, but to be presented with the Holy Spirit unequivocally, that has revealed itself to you physically, and still say "nah, prolly demons or something" is a blasphemy too great to ignore.

>>2436062
Thanks for the explanation.

I still don't understand what the FUCK the holy spirit actually IS though. Is it ever touched upon in the OT or is it only ever expanded upon by jesus in the NT?

Online, it's spoken of as "common knowledge" - but I'm looking for concrete examples... I'm looking for good examples of paganism hiding in Catholicism. Examples:

ST BRIGID (deity):
...has the same name, associations and feast day as the Celtic goddess Brigid, and there are many supernatural events, legends and folk customs associated with her.

ST COLUMBA (pagan):
...is venerated in Spain as "Patron Saint of Witches" (as a former-witch, literally both protecting other witches - and warding against magic).

ST BARBARA (syncretism):
...is syncretized with Chango, Yoruba deity of war, dance, virility, sex, etc. Association via her sword (he's a warrior), her colors (red & white are sacred to Chango) and vestment (in one myth he escapes a husband he cucked, another god, by sneaking out of town in woman's garb).

.

Not looking for light connections (ie, "oh this Saint has a name like a god but few other associations in common").

Yes, looking for heavy connections (ie, "oh neat, this saint has a fuller backstory and symbols, a forgotten god (or pagan) hidden among the honored dead").

Bonus points if it's Celtic, tho Nordic and Roman certainly work.

.

Not sure about Saint Patrick (sometimes replaces the Celtic Lugh - and trade the triple-face for the triple-leafed shamrock - but anywho).

Mary is the pagan Queen of Heaven, she has the same title, the same starry cloak, and is the mother of the saviour god, just like the pagan deity (mother of Horus / Dionysos)

Not quite.

Dionysus is associated with Jesus - but he wasn't born of Hera. He was first born to a different mother - then Hera plotted the child's murder (whether by accident or by releasing Titans or other monsters) - and then Zeus took the remnants, put it into a new mother and the child was thus "reborn and of a virgin".

And Hera's emblems included peacocks - and archaically, cattle/cows. No special association with the sky or stars. None of her children represented celestial forces either -- we got Angelos (underworld), Ares (war), Eileithyia (childbirth), Enyo (war), Eris (discord), Hebe (youth), Hephaestus (fire and forge) Typhone (serpent monster).

And of course I'm presuming - because you say "pagan Queen of Heaven" without specifying which kind of paganism - I'm just thinking Greco-Roman via Dionysus.

If Isis (Egyptian), we got ankhs, knots. Isis always had her "throne"-crown (Mary doesn't). Lotus or sycamore trees (neither for Mary). Cow horns (association to Hera but not Mary). Vultures. There's some superficial Isis-Hera ties (if we really reach) but nothing for Mary, except a few visuals of mother-and-child. But you can't possible (for example) use Mary as a substitute for Isis or Hera - she simply lacks the vast majority of their symbols and story.

They rose to power due to the great depression, opposition to the treaty of Versailles and drive to reunify Germany, with most of those objectives attained the Nazis would gradually lose popularity among the middle class who the Nazis couldn't really suppress without going full commie. It would transition to democracy like Franco's regime, probably a bit earlier, maybe in the 60s.
