Nah, I think they're still roman, in some respects. Their traits simply do not translate well into the modern world.

A roman work day was very short and many romans just spend their entire day begging from patron to patron of some food/money. Not to mention they have feasts/holidays for everything. By modern standards, classical roman civilians are /lazy/. In our modern standards, their system of patronage, tax-collecting and other things are corrupt, the same way as Chinese Patronage and Bureaucracy.

The roman patricians also care about the family, whether it means lineage or not, and whether they're adopted or not. In fact, there is a big focus on surnames /because/ their family is a source of prestige, legitimacy and class. This carried over as various Italian families and even republics way after Rome fell and into the middle ages and the Renaissance, which was almost fueled by Patronage. If fact, you can see the resemblance of this carry-over to Mafia Families, and in which joining essentially adopts you to their family, with the GodFather acting as the old roman Pater Familia.

And as for fun-loving hedonists? Have you seen how hedonistic Romans can be?

They're the same people you retarded ass /pol/ faggot, wrong board

Isnt that originally something from The Question?

also when I was in 8th grade we had an art project for Halloween to make our own monster, and I just drew a Slig from Oddworld and everyone praised me for being so original and creative

That's fucking deep, man

Protestants hate catholics; has no idea what the fuck orthodox is

Catholics hate protestants

Orthodox hates both

>>2053615
I'm well aware of the attitudes. Your post doesn't really tell me anything constructive.

>>2053612
The primary difference is succession. The Pope in Rome is the sole Patriarch and absolute religious leader of all Catholics, whereas the Orthodox church still follows a system that developed from the Pentarchy, with the Patriarch of Constantinople as the most important living figure.

If Earth Benders constantly bullied and raped and converted everyone but the Natives and then the Fire benders rapidly advanced and brought those advancements to the world then yes

History is a broad subject full of trillions of bits of information across thousands of years of human achievement. This is though if you're asking me if this image's point, in my opinion, is correct, my answer would be absolutely not. Yes, white people as a whole have made many mistakes as a people such as westward expansion, which is a great example of that, but did native Americans live in "harmony?" No. there was genocide war disease and fighting among all. Fuck this fact ignoring shit.

No, that would be de Maistre.

No because Marx claims to be logical and reasonable conclusion and thus objectively right. Evola puts forth his claims and basically says take it or leave it this what I think is true. He makes no claims of objective truth

>They reveal to us that the only way forward is to throw aside all religion and superstition, like they did.
I'd immediately ask to see their ethnographies of other civilizations. There's nothing stopping Gods from propaganda.

>The same situation, only the hyper-advanced aliens reveal that they are an incredibly pious and religious race, that they believe in a God with a theology not unlike that of Christianity, and that they believe they have in fact proved his existence through their study of the very fabric of reality.
I'd want to facilitate their research into not just Christianity but all claims of Attainment in history.

>One day in the future, we have invented FTL travel and are exploring the universe at great speed. We discover, very rapidly, that the universe is in fact FILLED with life. Nearly every solar system we visit has at least one planet with advanced life on it, and every few solar systems have an intelligent, sapient species.
This is would not bother me in the slightest.

>We branch out into the universe only to discover... we really are alone. Out of billions and billions, possibly trillions, of solar systems surveyed, not one of them has life in them. Not so much as a single bacterium, or even an amino acid. We, as a planet, are truly alone in the Universe.
I'd be rather tweaked. I'd want to know why. This wouldn't immediately imply to me that any given religion's theism is valid.

Banning "assault" rifles, and banning "hate" speech.

These are tensions, sure, but I don't see a war happening from it unless there's a real push from one side to permanently infringe upon the others. And I can't see that happening.

>le civil war was caused by slavery
The Civil War was caused by lots of things, slavery was just the straw that broke the camel's back.

We're seeing a lot of that today, too. Though at this point, governments have consolidated so much power that it would take something more major than outlawing slavery in territories to be the deciding factor.

My guess would be something like globalists overthrowing a democratic election in favor of their personal agendas. Like if the electors picked Hillary instead of Trump, or if Parliament chose to stay in the EU rather than leave. Something like that.

The reason revolutions in the West don't really happen anymore is because they've gotten very subtle about their subversion. I mean, just look at Europe. People will tell you that they would rise up in revolt against their government if they ever censored their right to free speech, and yet it's happening all over the place. In many countries in Europe, "hate speech" is illegal. Talking shit about migrants or calling someone a nigger can land you jail time. Even asking the question about whether or not the Holocaust happened exactly as it is often taught can land you in prison or with a hefty fine. The governments over there are free to censor websites at their leisure if they deem them to be "hateful" or something along those lines. It's starting to happen in America too.

That's the problem with a lot of these laws that people vote in with the best intentions. Sure, censoring hateful rhetoric that incites violence, or banning people on terrorism watch lists from purchasing firearms seems great in practice. Until you realize that it's completely arbitrary, and that the government gets to decide those things without a day in court to prove that they're justified. Today, maybe they ban Muhammed whose uncle is in ISIS from buying an AR-15. Good idea, right? 10 years down the road you make a nasty comment about the gov't, and now you're on the same list.

Yup. Christianity is growing pretty good, its just that Islam is growing faster, so we gotta watch out for that.

Gnostic heretics

The Bogomils are of much interest for me.

It is believed the Bogomils were offshoots of the Paulicians, after these were relocated to the European parts of the Byzantine Empire following the Byzantine-Paulician wars, in an attempt to strengthen the borders with the Bulgarians.

We actually don't know whether the Bogomils were an actual heretical group, or whether they were truly as prevalent/radical as the sources present: with the research being done, it is a possibility that the 'myth' of the Bogomil heretics was born due to the refusal of the Bosnian (Catholic) Church to accept a Hungarian bishop and temporal authority, as decreed by the Pope. This Bosnian Church would have been orthodox in its practices - essentially Catholic -, but its refusal to fall in line with Papal mandates meant it was marked as being "heretical".

But that's just one hypotheses: it is likely there WAS a Gnostic-inspired sect in Bosnia, along with the orthodox (Catholic) Bosnian Church, but that their radicalism and number of adherents was exaggerated.

Also, it is very likely the Bogomils influenced what would become the Cathars.

Hoped that helped.

>>2053107
Cathars were definitely Gnostics

I know they at seriously trying to destroy the culture and laws of the US, so in that respect they are certainly dangerous.

More than a experiment, i think it's a reality we can't escape from, it's the most probable future of large cities, we're not stopping cities from growing larger and larger, adjacent cities are in fact gonna merge.
