Why is there always talk of Islamophobia or Homophobia, but never mentions of Christophobia or Heteropohobia?

Really synthesizes my simians.

Because Christians and "Heteros" never complain about it as if its a widespread problem, unless they want to be dismissive of other people then they use the same exact "logic" you do.

Because neither of those groups are whiny little bitches.

Because those are terms were made up by extremists in order to subvert universities and the intellectual quality of Western education.

Philosophical argument for the contingency of the universe:
(1) If the universe didn't have a beginning, the universe is eternal.
(2) If the universe is eternal, the past is infinite.
(3) If the past is infinite, there has been an endless amount of past events.
(4) If the amount of past events is infinite, it would take an infinite amount of events to reach the present events.
(5) However, present events are constantly reached.
(6) Therefore, (4) is false.
(7) Therefore, the amount of past events is finite.
(8) Therefore, past is finite.
(9) Therefore, the universe is not eternal.
(10) Therefore, the universe began to exist.
(11) Therefore, the universe has a cause.

Philosophical argument against an universe caused by nothing:
(1) Nothing is the absolute absence of things.
(2) Properties are exclusive of things.
(3) Therefore, nothingness doesn't have properties.
(4) Therefore, nothingness doesn't have the property to cause the existence of beings.
(5) Therefore, nothingness cannot be the cause of the universe.
(6) Therefore, the cause of the universe is something.

Philosophical argument for the nature of the cause of the universe:
(1.1) The cause of the universe is a being by which the universe came to exist.
(1.2) The cause of the universe either has to exist, could or could not exist, or cannot exist.
(1.3) If the cause of the universe is something, its existence is not impossible.
(1.4) If the cause of the universe could not exist, it’s not the actual cause of the universe but a mere means.
(1.5) Therefore, the cause of the universe has to exist. It’s uncaused and necessary.
(1.6) Therefore, it cannot change from one state to another. It’s changeless.
(1.7) If temporal, spacial or material beings can change, the cause of the universe must be timeless, spaceless and immaterial.
(2.1) A changeless being caused the universe.
(2.2) Therefore, the cause of the universe cannot be impersonal.
(2.3) Therefore, the cause of the universe must be personal.
(3.1) Among explanations based on the same evidence, the simplest one is the most probable.
(3.2) The cause of the universe is something necessary, uncaused, changeless, timeless, spaceless, immaterial and personal.
(3.3) Therefore,it is most probable that the cause of the universe is one necessary, uncaused, changeless, timeless, spaceless, immaterial and personal being.

That's like saying that just because you can theoretically cut a rope infinite times before reaching the middle that there is no middle.

Modal ontological argument:
(1) The greastest being is defined as a being that possesses all virtues at its maximum grade and all flaws at its minimum grade.
(2) Such being, by definition, would have to be all-powerful, all-knowing and all-loving (therefore personal), since these properties are greater than their negations.
(3) These properties doesn’t contradict each other.
(4) Therefore, it’s possible that the greatest being exists.
(5) Therefore, it exists in one possible reality.
(6) Therefore, it exists in all possible realities. It’s greater to exist in all possible realities than just some of them.
(7) Therefore, the greastest being cannot not exist. It’s necessary.
(8) Therefore, the greatest being is uncaused, changeless, timeless, spaceless and immaterial.
(9) This reality is a possible reality.
(10) Therefore, the greatest being exists.
(11) Therefore, an all-powerful, all-knowing, all-loving, personal, necessary, uncaused, changeless, timeless, spaceless, immaterial being exists.

Putting two and two together:
(1) Among explanations based on the same evidence, the simplest one is the most probable.
(2) The cause of the universe is something necessary, uncaused, changeless, timeless, spaceless, immaterial, personal being.
(3) The greatest being is an all-powerful, all-knowing, all-loving, personal, necessary, uncaused, changeless, timeless, spaceless, immaterial being.
(4) Therefore, it is most probable that the cause of the universe is one all-powerful, all-knowing, all-loving, necessary, uncaused, changeless, timeless, spaceless, immaterial, personal being.

Hi /his/, fitizen crossposter here. I really don't know where to post this, but anyways here goes; can you tell me what happened to people like this?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis_Cyr

Currently the strongest living man is considered to be Zydrunas Zavickas from Lithuania, but still his records are nowhere near the level of Cyr, or even Milo of Croton.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milo_of_Croton

Are these numbers a lie, or did something happen to society as a whole because we don't see these kinds of individuals anymore?

The numbers were a little overblown, but people were far more active back in the day.

If you were a soldier/sailor/slave you were basically lifting and running all day, everyday from the age of 12 or younger. A well nourished athlete might have been Zyzz-tier.

We know that Greek rowers able to traverse the Aegean at speeds that the fittest rowers today cannot match.

https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2007/02/070208100643.htm
>>
>>2266507
tl;dr:

Athenian Trireme crews were able to row at performances equal to or greater than modern elite rowers.

Ancient Athens had up to 200 triremes at any one time, and with 170 rowers in each ship. That's about 27,000 men out of a total male population of about 150,000, so the rowers were clearly not a small elite.

Fir comparison, the UK today would struggle to man a trireme fleet of this size, so the Athenians likely were far more shredded than puny moderns.

How do we know their records are accurate?
