What does /his/ think of the British Museum?
It's great. Tons of interesting stuff on permanent display, excellent temporary exhibitions and fantastic backup for both via books and Web content.
Their toilets are the worst stygian stink pit in Christendom though. Hold it in and waddle down to the ones at the Wallace Collection.

Oh yeah, and good luck getting into the Egyptian section or anywhere near the real Rosetta Stone if it's busy or a weekend.
Good displays, actual books in the gift shop, mostly accessible. What more could you want?
>"the bread and wine are miraculously transmuted into the actual, literal flesh and blood of Christ!"
>"another miracle occurs at the exact same time that enables this divine flesh and blood to retain the appearance, taste, smell, texture, and chemical/molecular composition of bread and wine!"
You have to be a gullible mong to still fall for this shit.
Euphoric.

Why is privacy desirable? Would humans still be comfortable if everything was made public?
>>2114344
Privacy is a meme and going the way of the dodo, it's better to adapt and assume that everything you do can be shared publicly

Why did people clothe their horses in medieval times? What was it called?
Caparison. It looked nice and offered some protection against arrows and stuff.
>>2113834
It was called looking badass.
Protection and showing your coat of arms.
Why are we pretending that he was a good guy?
>>2127648
Does anyone pretend this? He was a Great Man, but I can't think of a single Great Man who wasn't a cunt in one way or another.
>>2127648
He BTFO the sacred band of fags so he's good in my book
He made some great songs, shame he died so young. Anyone been to his grave in Paris?
What's with the Western world and their extremely positive attitude towards the Gulf monarchies and the Saudi's in particular. If any part of the world was more anti-enlightenment, it's here. Yet we can't stop loving them.
Is it just "deh oil"? Or something else?
1. Its the oil
2. Its their money in general [see: Hillary Clinton]
3. Its because the Democratic Coalition isn't a massed group with shared values, its a disparate alliance against an imaginary phantom [the dreaded straight white male]. Muslims can be absolutely medieval and nobody on the Left will care because muh progress muh culture muh religion of peace.

>an imaginary phantom [the dreaded straight white male].
I would guess a decent portion of this website is made up of straight white males, we're hardly imaginary
They keep a pretty good lid on both sand niggers and petroleum deposits.
Or at least, they do a good enough job that we fear that whatever would replace them would be even worse.
How does one increase his intelligence?
Have a nutritious diet while you're a kid while also being stimulated mentally
Eating fish.

>Vouge vs Glaive.
>Visored sallete vs kettle helmet with eye slits.
>Full metal bevor vs chain neck protection. The one in chain has a shield. It's fixed, so he is still able to use both hands to wield his glaive.
Otherwise armour protection is comparable. Who wins in direct duel?
And before anyone asks, yes, fighting like that will get you killed by a swiss peasant with a halberd.
>Vouge vs Glaive.
Judging from your picture, I'd say it is more like a couteau de brêche and a fauchard. A voulge would be pic related.
But polearms nomenclature is an immense clusterfuck, so fuck me sideways.
>>2113832
Fouchard is supposed to be flat, while couteau is supposed to have a hook. Then again, you are correct that every author has it's own naming.
How did Europe manage to overtake East Asia so absurdly in terms of technology, influence, and power starting around the 14th/15th century? What caused things like the renaissance and industrial revolution to occur in Europe instead of Asia?
>>2127509
industrial revolution <- new world (lot of capitals coming in, fueling industries)
Renaissance was just Europe closing the gap.
The Ming emperor went full retard
Because europeans compete against each other all the time and started to think of science to gain wealth.
Greeks practised philosophy because of kek, italians studied stuff because ??? Its fun and for the sake of it etc.
Then people started to realize we could better our lives through science and tools and started to create stuff that made life easier and produce stuff cheaper, faster and better.
It started in year 1600ish and truly hit a milestone with steam engine and from there on it went über fast. Brits and french also had alot of money from S. America which made stuff easier.
What's /his/ think about this guy?
>inb4 spook spamming, give real reasons why like, don't like, or indifferent.
it's his followers who are insufferable cunts
Evola feeds into and justify their smugness
sort of like plebs reading Nietzsche, but Evola is a bit more obscure than him, so the smugness rises
he got some things wrong too, minor thing, but still
he seemed to think that the masculine is prior to the feminine
while Hindu (and perennial philosophy) holds that both are present at the beginning
>>2113229
He was objectively wrong about this. Liberalism won the Cold War, not communism. You could argue communist did win by subverting liberalism, but hardly it's Bolshevik variant.

Friendly reminder that western civilization was at its height during the Middle Ages, under the guidance of the Catholic Church.
Friendly reminder that Protestant dumbasses and "enlightenment" fedoras destroyed 1000 years of peace and prosperity.
Friendly reminder that a single cohort of crusader heavy cavalry could easily destroy 2 or more Roman legions from the principate era.
You're right, why can't we die from diarrhea anymore?
>crusader cavalry
Since when did Medieval European armies divide their soldiers up into cohorts, and what exactly is "crusader cavalry?" Are you talking about knights?
>>2113135
Yeah sure, who cares. It's true either way
