You wouldn't because when he dies your sins are cleared. If I was whipping him I wouldn't enjoy it, my tears would be flicking onto his back, but I'd be whipping hard to hasten the process.

Eh they killed a guy falsely claiming to be the messiah. My country probably does that at least twice a week minimum. Hell if God was mad at the Romans he sure didn't demonstrate it.

Pretty sexy voice, I can't ride my rrrrrs.

Agreed that voice is pretty great.

Americans had no culture or history of their own, so they ended up creating one.

Much like their fast food, their history is also made in the a jiffy and is pretty shit.

Define racism

>>2288044
perceived superiority and/or hatred over/towards certain cultures and/or ethnicities based solely on one's own history, life experience, or culture, I guess?


or perhaps believing not all humans are essentially equal and one group is worse

I have absolutely nothing to contribute except a guess that they're potentially from Classical North Africa (Carthage, Egypt). I'm probably wrong.

Could you explain better what exactly do you mean?

Also bumping with my own question. Could someone explain to me why black eagles in germanic nations crests (HRE, Prussia, Austria etc.) look so, well, evil? I mean, just look at those spooky heads and jagged black wings, this looks like some hellspawn demonbird, not a symbol of virtues the nation could look up to. Who the fuck drew that and tought "Yeah, I want this nightmarish abomination to be a personal symbol of my family and lands"?

>Could someone explain to me why black eagles in germanic nations crests (HRE, Prussia, Austria etc.) look so, well, evil?

That's purely your opinion anon. They don't look evil to me. They were meant to project authority and impress, so they weren't gonna slap a big, pink chicken on the crest so they wouldn't scare anons hundreds of years in the future.

Because Germans (Saxons) are just murderous devil spawns. ;)

>The notion was long before Christendom
Not really. Western civilization is the civilization that grew out of Rome's Latin West after the fall of Rome, basically Catholic and then Protestant Europe. It is distinct from Orthodox Christendom, derived from Rome's Greek East. The West is basically an area that went through a series of common developments, which weren't experienced by the likes of Greece, Russia, Romania, Armenia, etc, which had their own separate development. After Western Rome fell, the West went through the 'Dark Ages', the Carolingian Renaissance, the rise of feudalism and Romanesque in the 11th century, the crusades, medieval communes, the 12th century intellectual renaissance, the rise of Gothic, the Printing Revolution, Humanism, etc. These resulted in shared legal, literary, political, artistic, philosophical, technological, economic, demographic, and other traditions. All of this made the West its own unique 'world', just like Islam, Orthodoxy, East Asia and Greater India were.

The Greco-Roman world was its own civilization, and the West is only one offshoot of it. To call them 'Western' is anachronistic, unless you're just referring to their geographical position in relation to eastern civilizations.

>>2288002
i follow, this makes sense

so why then do we still use the term in reference to pre-Christendom ad the Orthodox/Catholic split?
So was Ancient Greece western, and modern Greece not?

>>2288530
Basically it's because Westerners, especially after the Renaissance, saw/see the Greeks as the foundation of their civilization, which is true to a certain extent. They were thus the 'founders' of Western civilization in a sense, though they weren't Western themselves. In the same sense they could be called the founders of Orthodox and Islamic civilizations, though obviously they weren't Orthodox (in ancient times) or Islamic. From a Western perspective this lead to the Greeks being retroactively seen as a Western civilization, contrasted with the orientalist idea of 'the East'. Sometimes this is projected back even further, to the Mycenaeans and Minoans, though I don't think Western civilization owes much to them.

Another reason is simply the fact that the Greeks and Romans were geographically located in the west in relation to other contemporary civilizations, so it makes sense to call them 'western' in that sense, which reinforces their association with later Western civilization.

He was a pretty cool dude even if his story is full of holes and is strange to outsiders. Utah Mormon here AMA

Convicted scam artist and racist who quite literally invented his own religion by talking to his semi-retarded friend through a tophat.

Also didn't accept the trinity, which is a corner stone of the Christian faith. But we all have to pretend they're just as legitimate a branch of Christianity as all the others, every presidential election year.

Jesus wrote all of them at the same time in AD 325 :^)
