What does 'pro-Jewish' mean in this context and why is it as important as stuff like ignoring and heeding the constitution?

He grew up in a colony with a sizable Jewish population, where he gained his love of merchant living and anti-antisemitism. He also studied Hebrew, and was that one killjoy who'd reprimand his fellow Christians for mocking Jews.
He admiration pales compared to the U.K. however, who allowed Israelis to bomb their military bases back in the late '40s, and responded with a series of apologies.

if people back then thought tomatoes would kill you then why did they grow them
and also don't you think somebody would have manned up and realizes tomatoes are safe to eat
i feel like maybe back then "tomatoes will kill you" was a medieval meme not meant to be taken seriously but historians don't think people back then had a sense of humor

Tomatoes aren't native to Europe, when they were first brought back over from the new world people were afraid to eat them

This is a good answer. Where the Europeans brought gunpowder and steel, the natives had rocks, bone, and sinew.

It is even funnier when you find out that South America has the 9th biggest economy in the world and yet nobody gives a shit.
Do you think the wage elasticity of non-productive, pecuniary occupations is inherently higher in proportion to the employment elasticity than the relative proportions for productive occupations?

I'd suspect it would be lower, being that non-productive work is really fucking easy.

I know drunk posting is pretty gay b ut here we go.
Let's be philosophic since /his/ is the only board where philsophy has a platform:
I have a theory that, similar to how our human brain can't 'come up' with a new color, we can neither come up with a method for something to be created without a creator.
It's so thickly inbreded in our brains that a baby MUST have a father and mother, some kind of creator.
Same thing with the universe, it must have a creator. Us humans can't possible think of a way in which something is formed without a creator.
I hope I'm making sense, vodka really fucks with you.

Yeah I get what you are saying and its true. All matter in the universe was always there in some form and doesn't have a beginning. Its just beyond human comprehension that something doesn't have to "begin"

What about Christianity made it so wildly successful? Are the ideas of selflessness, sacrifice, and overcoming death the ones most compelling to mankind?

Yes, as he was a physicist, but like many paradigm-shifting theories he's not solely deserving of credit and is CERTAINLY not deserving the meme status of "history's greatest mind" which he seems to have achieved.
Einstein was a lot more photogenic and politically visible than Von Neumann, that's all.
>>
>>2345713
Photoelectric effect. Postulated photon particles. Some more minor stuff, like his papers about Brownian motion. While he didn't personally originate 95% of what we consider relativity, he still played a very important role and it would be stupid to deny it.
Einstein is in league for the most overrated man in history, but that doesn't mean he dindu nuffin, far from it.
