Bro can you imagine how insanely powerful that sacrifice would have been though

How powerful would it have been?

>captured Cortes twice and lost him both times because they wanted to sacrifice him in the Main Temple
on topic, did they literally only fought for capturing?

lotr fags pls. Tekumel and Hyborian age world are superior.

It seems like they're trying to address fundamentally different issues.

Rule utilitarianism, obviously.

Fuck you if you think I'm about to type out a justification, though.

>>2172408

The image is actually misleading. Benthamite utilitarianism definitely takes a social-ends perspective and is geared toward social engineering at the macro level.

I may not be religious, but I don't need to be to know you're retarded.

>>2172243
I have a degree in religious studies.
All I can say is religious people are just like any other people. They are no different from any ideologue with their own behavioral spectrum

>He doesn't k ow that the Somme was the bloodiest battle in English history

I don't have one really, but I was thinking of one just now where the commander of each army was captured by the other's forces during the course of the battle

I don't think it's what you're talking about but in the Battle of Okinawa both the American and Japanese generals were killed.

I think it's true, look at how prominent the fertility female rites were. You even see this in the Americas, there's this ancient desire to depict fertile thicc women. I think the Minoans were even still had some traces of this left in their culture.

Probably commenting on the fact that early societies didn't have the ability to concentrate material possessions to particular individuals, nor were there much occasion for status-institutions, but that this stopped being the case as groups developed, centralized, and the more physically capable, and uninhibited by pregnancy male demographic took and consolidated control.

>>2172096
Have you read a single book on anthropology ever? Even ones published before the "SJW menace" suggest early societies were extremely egalitarian with de facto absolute democracies - the most primitive form of government, as well as rampant polygamy, polyamory, and incest

How do you quantify their quality of their labor and contributions to society? The amount of money in their bank account?

>>2171561
How can we prove you wrong when all you've done is vomit your unjustified opinion.

What's your theory of why those things should be valued, or of how things derive value at all?

What is the paradox? Tolerating intolerant stuff? Easy, stopping being tolerant, that is, a disgusting cuck

Easy, just tolerate everyone with the exception of those who are intolerant. Tolerance isn't an absolute.

To add on to this, I always hear people say "the reps were against slavery but also against the civil rights act so they changed."

>>2171126
Democrats used to the "state's rights party" then it became the "federal government party".

The other Roosevelt was also pretty handsy on the economy and he was a Republican, Carter was pretty hands-offy and he was a Democrat - sometimes it's more about the guy than the party, but if the guy is popular you can expect party doctrine to follow after him thereafter.

>>2171126
>The Reps have always been about smaller government since Jefferson

The Republican Party as an institution traces its roots to Lincoln, trying to connect it all the way back to Jefferson is disingenuous. Basically a form of WEWUZism.

You're also cherrypicking like mad considering how many "big government" Republicans and "small government" Democrats there have been (if such labels are actually worth anything).

Cadorna was pretty bad, but his ideas weren't that off the norm of the time. The real problem was that he refused to adapt after being faced with proofs of how woefully inadequate prewar military doctrine was. Diaz on the other hand had every reason to change direction, from sheer practicality to political advantage.
Also to be perfectly fair, the maneuver that started the austrian collapse was started by a disobedient general a week before Cadorna got sacked, so in a way it wasn't really just about Cadorna and Diaz.
Not to mention that Italy's bad performance in ww1 is absolutely overstated. We're talking of two more or less equally matched armies, trying to dislodge each other from extremely entrenched positions up and down the fucking Alps. The fact that italian assaults often resulted in stalemates rather than routes is really fucking remarkable (or really fucking bad austrian performance).

Neopaganism itself is heretical. Its people grasping at straws trying to make religion out stories.

>>2170887
His views on paganism are restorationism.

A lot of information regarding paganism has been lost due to christian conquest.
