>tfw Quakerism is doctrinally god-tier
>emphasises mysticism, based on Quietist doctrine, relies on inner experience of God rather than forms and words
>tfw it just became a group of quiet, polite old Protestants who have tea and sandwiches after meetings
>tfw the mystical aspect of Quakerism never materialised properly, and modern Friends know fuck all about it's Quietist roots

Attended a few meetings a few years back but was kind of disappointed. Their beliefs sound pretty close to what I was looking for in Christianity, but it was just lacking a certain something.

Damn shame, could have been something special.

Sounds like you haven't met Evangelical Friends from poor countries. Not a big fan of the evangelical theological leanings tbqh, but they still have the fire.

Two things I see as holding us back in U.S.: just a lot of older people in our meetings and so it is hard to get things stirred up, get everyone riled up like Friends of yore.

And two, rich shits. So many wealthy people in meetings it is impossible to bring in any radical action. Being radical in thought they are fine with, but once you start talking about closing down freeways or anything, they shy away. The nearest meeting house to me is a nice bungalow type place with a Mercedes dealership at one end of the street and a Jaguar dealership at the other.

All the Quaker colleges, which should be these great gathering centers for the young and poor, are just these preppy, liberal arts schools. Nothing radical ever comes from that.

Quakerism just doesn't work as a once-a-week thing. Gotta get out on the front lines of social movements and protests.

It's not even being riled up that I felt was missing, more like they were lacking any real connection to the mystical/contemplative roots of their tradition.

In (quietist) contemplative tradition (from which Fox drew heavily), there's a defined path with an end goal, and one undergoes certain psychological and spiritual experiences on the way to union with the divine.

I kind of feel like that's completely absent in Quakerism, for people in it it seems to be largely about some vague 'connection' with God, but no specific drive or intent. Just from what I've seen, at least.

Tbqh, I couldn't give a fuck about social issues when it comes to religion, I don't see what radical social action has to do with divine union, I just want something that acts on the centuries of Saints' writings that lay out the path to God clearly, step by step

What the fuck does post-ideological even mean? Surely stating that society is post-ideological posits that an ideology does exist, even if it's self-defeating.

Sounds an awful lot like Nihilism to me.

I think we would be in season 4
Best season was probably season 2 (u know with dragons and odysseus)
Still people think we will have a renewal for season 5 but the network already announced that the show got canceled

They did a lot more than fanged sculptures, the fanged sculptures are from the first period.

Because there was something worse than that. The most abominable thing that mastered deception and hypocrisy at the same time, they called it "Europe"

Timur are worse than Mongols

We all know that today we're all allegedly part of the same political-economical union called the European Union

But has there ever been any historical accounts where the "European" identity as a concept ever existed, that was never used as purely a geographical term?

I ask because the whole thing sounds arbitrary. There's no clear definition of what constitutes a european. Language? we have the indo-european branch, but then you would have to exclude the basques, finns and hungarians because they don't have an indo-european language

Territory? Faulty. Nobody has yet clearly defined the exact borders of the european continent.

So are there any historic accounts to where we can trace this concept and pinpoint where the idea as an identity started? It would make it easy to simply determine who the real europeans are and who aren't

My take is that the concept of Europe in the sense that it is referred to as today started forming when the christian church spread over Europe, and has been disintegrating ever since capitalism surpassed it in importance.
>>
>>2116499
Geography, religion and rising up in the name of democracy against your country's rulers (whether it's your own regime, or a foreign occupier)
This is the most all encompassing definition and leaves only one ethnic group that's geographically European out of it ("Bosniaks"). Albanians (in Albania as opposed to those in Yugoslavia) are also Christians (orthodox and catholic).
Turks are Asians, definitely.
Bosniaks are Slavs that want to be Turks, and have a strange and ironic identity solely to differentiate from Croats and Serbs.
>>
"Christian World" was the thing that predates "European" identity. Then Napoleon tried to create the proto-EU.
