It's good, as long as it isn't pushing papist heresy

It's religious inspired nonsense. They support Intelligent Design. That should give you an idea of the quality of their scholarship.

Tell that to Sudan.

Overall, it is reactionary pandering trash.

No, he'd ship them off back to Africa where they would belong.

Sadly Booth killed him before he could ever do that. It really surprises me how many liberals support the Union when it was literally more racist than the Confederacy if you think about it.

They should be burning Union flags instead of Confederate ones.

i dont see what's so racist about that

Well then you're not a liberal. Congratulations.

Why is defending the white race against ethics?

depends on the orders. if you're like a delivery guy for a secret installation developing a terrible new weapon that kills tons of civilians but you had absolutely no idea what was going on inside you probably shouldn't be held to the same account as the guy who actually used the weapon

It's a bullshit copout. The fault lies as much on the man who pulled the trigger as the man who gave the order, and the man who relayed it down the line without question.

They were the fault of the byzantines for being so completely inept

>>2307618
hmm at this point muslims weren't actively invading so to call the motives an act of retribution is disingenuous. Though acts of violence towards pilgrims by muslims might also have been a motive.

It was rather initiated by the Pope by request of the Byzantines which he hoped would lead to unification of the churches.

The fact that essentially no modern day professional historians espouse that explanation and the only people who do are modern day reactionaries using it to bolster their own agenda should give you a pretty good idea

>>2307588
Next to zero credibility. Multiple military coups, a military more loyal to their general than their Empire, increasing ruralization of the population, pressure from invading Germanics, and poor administration of lands/collection of taxes are the largest causes.

>>2307588
>immigration
that's a little different from the forceful invasion by various tribes. though I think the ostro-goths or some group were allowed to settle within the empire after being displaced by invading Huns

>>2307488
>What's the point of this organization?
Promoting economic development and foreign aid. It has always sucked at stopping conflicts but it does a decent job in regards to humanitarian stuff

>>2307488
They provide a framework for multiple international organizations that do a lot of good, like WHO. Though /pol/ is retarded and if it doesn't have enough whites and a military force it is useless.

The UN is a cornerstone of the post-WW2 established order that has been responsible for the most peaceful & prosperous epoch in human history.

>le greeks stole from egyptian

this afrocentric meme has been propagated around /his/ by some posters

While Greece borrowed things from its neighbors

much of Greek philosophy and science was uniquely Greek, especially Aristotle who is really the first systematic thinker in history.

No Egyptian or Babylonian that we know of had a complete system of thought like Aristotle had ( at that time)

What's with you all-or-nothing faggots? Why does it always need to be "The Greeks just stole everything from Egypt!" versus "The Greeks were 100% unique" with you fuckwits? Why is it so inconceivable that it actually falls a little in between?

A curse to bring unwanted attention from some malevolent entity. Fun fact, the Romans believed in a winged penis that would ejaculate into such an evil eye to blind it, thus protecting the object of the curse.

They did often take ideas from more advanced societies.
Maybe the book accentuates how much because of an agenda but that statement isn't incorrect.

>>2306971
>One part even said that Europeans took ideas from more "advanced societies",
In what context? If they're talking about neolithic or the bronze or iron ages, or even the early middle ages, there's nothing wrong with that. If it's about the early modern period then yeah, that's biased; Europeans did adopt ideas from abroad but they were hardly more 'advanced'.

>>2306971
Everyone took ideas from more advanced societies except for the progenitors of civilization like the Sumerians, Egyptians, Olmecs, Chinese.
