If Islam is centered around pillars, explain this.

>There is no God but Allah
spook, reasons obvious

>Five daily prayers
pointless spook, at a stretch meditation does something, but the science behind that isn't clear

>charity
less spooky, but maybe doing anything that isn't in you self-interest is a spook

>Fasting
may not be a spook, some evidence suggests the simulated famine "reboots" the immune system

Public option regarding the safety of nuclear power plants. Pretty sure after fukushima, Japan shut all their plants down and haven't brought them back up yet.

Having history as a major is near useless. I love history as much as the next /his/torian, but it is almost useless in real life. I went to law school and I study history as a hobby.

I've graduated an arts degree, majoring in 'greece, rome and late antiquity', and am starting my masters when uni comes back

I'll be doing teaching afterwards so it's not all completely fucking useless. I study at the only relevant university for ancient history in the southern hemisphere

A mixed bag, the Atlantic Bronze Age people were technologically related to each other from the earliest of times, they were also related to North Africans.

On the Mediterranean coast the Greeks created some trading outposts that became towns.

In the central areas you get a mixture of Iberian-Celtic peoples.

In the south west the Lusitanians occupied territory.

The Carthaginians also started to create settlements on the south and Mediterranean coasts.

So, as pic related illustrates, there was always a mixed bag of peoples in Spain.

Al lI know is that Basque is a pre-PIE language, so they are the original inhabitants of Spain.

And that Islam stopped there because long supply lines and couldn't take France.

Because humans cry to God when they stew in their own shit.

Honestly the 18th century is the GOAT century and anybody who doesn't agree is probably just memeing. Humans will never reach that high of a point of culture again.

>if we tell narratives plucked from the air about our culture and history and mold them to our prejudices, that counts as history and archaeology, right?

>USA was created
>French revolution
Nah the 18th century was shit for those two things alone. Now 17th and the absolutist catholic monarchies were GOAT.

It's kind of cute how atheists cannot even grasp the fact that some people are actually religious, like it's a foreign concept to them.

>>2282398
Well it is laughably pathetic.

It's just Catholics and Catholics are dumb.

When you had original high hierarchy i.e. apostles bitch over "who should be in charge" you should appoint one to this role so there would not be discussion over it.
