>Celsus' work was lost, but in Origen's account of it Jesus was depicted as the result of an affair between his mother Mary and a Roman soldier. He said she was "convicted of adultery and had a child by a certain soldier named Panthera".[1] Tiberius Pantera could have been serving in the region at the time of Jesus's conception.[1] Both the ancient Talmud and medieval Jewish writings and sayings reinforced this notion, referring to Jesus as "Yeshu ben Pantera" (Jesus, son of Pantera).

>You go back in time as a British Officer working in Istanbul, to the morning of 1st of January 1923. What would you do?
>>1887091
Follow orders because pulling that kind of gung ho action is only tolerated in the Japanese army
you would probably get lynched by million turks who were already protesting in favor of returning of istanbul
that is if you didnt get shot by brits first for not following orders
turkeys efforts of reclaiming instanbul was backed by the usa and brits didnt have power necessary to fight against a US backed turkish army
>>1887225
not to mention that giving istanbul back meant that turkey would pay ottoman empires debts whereas a conflict would mean more economical strain on england
I've watched a few of Sargon of Akkad's video about how America is remarkably similar to the falling stages of the Roman Republic in the the Pricepate.
And I've read quite an it about the cycles of civilization and the patterns they seem to develop.
What I'm wondering is if we're looking at the end of western civilization, the end of part of it, or the usurpation of the republic.
What's your thoughts
>>1886973
History repeats itself, big fucking whoop
someone said that America went from Barbarism to Decadence without civilization in between
this was during the Gilded age

Why did the enlightenment seem to "stop" before anyone built a welfare state? In their late writing Paine and some others were /leftypol/ but no governments followed them there.
I'm going to guess it had something to do with the fact that at the time the overwhelming majority of people weren't wage laborers but simply lived comfy lives on their farms.
>>1886788
Probably because the idea behind /leftypol/ got BTFO in 391 B.C. and has been a laughingstock ever since. Now fuck off to /pol/, commieshit, this is a history board.
>Why did the enlightenment seem to "stop"
the enlightenment has "stopped" just as much as the cold war has "stopped".
it won't be over until moral realism is recognized as an artificial abstraction.
Is the rate of PTSD higher in modern soldiers than in other eras?
The modern stereotype of soldiers is that all of them who saw combat have some form of mental trauma.
Did Grant or Sherman have trouble sleeping at night after the Civil War?
Did Henry V get flashbacks to the bloody corpses of Agincourt?
Did Ceaser hear the screams of barbarians in his head when anyone mention Gaul?

>Is the rate of PTSD higher in modern soldiers than in other eras
Unsure. The primary sources indicate that PTSD was very much a thing according to psychohistorians.
>Did Grant or Sherman have trouble sleeping at night after the Civil War?
Grant for sure did. He had trouble sleeping at night DURING the Civil War.
>Did Henry V get flashbacks to the bloody corpses of Agincourt?
>Did Ceaser hear the screams of barbarians in his head when anyone mention Gaul?
Probably.
>>1886736
>Did Ceaser hear the screams of barbarians in his head when anyone mention Gaul?
No because "gaul" is a Germanic term, Caesar knew that land as Gallia. And no, "gaul" is not etymologically related to "gallia", the resemblance is purely coincidental.
>>1886736
>Did Grant or Sherman have trouble sleeping at night after the Civil War?
Sherman maybe, but Grant always slept like a baby after blacking out drunk.
>Did Henry V get flashbacks to the bloody corpses of Agincourt?
The guy got shot in the face with an arrow and had the point pulled out of his face bones with no anesthetic. The guy was metal as fuck. So probably not.
>Did Caesar hear the screams of barbarians in his head when anyone mentioned Gaul?
What the hell do you think he masturbated to?
Seriously though, I don't think that modern soldiers get PTSD at a higher instance than soldiers throughout history, it is just diagnosed at a higher instance now than ever before. Also, with the awareness of PTSD, the benefits one can get for having it, and the stigma against it having been destroyed, a lot more people are coming out of the woodwork who have it compared to previous wars.
They had problems with it in World War I, and a lot of that war was mind-shatteringly brutal and terrible beyond anything ever seen before or since.
When the ancient Israelites were slaughtering the Phoenician settlers of Palestine, the practice was that after slaughtering a bunch of them, the warriors wouldn't be allowed back into camp for a day and had to cleanse themselves. They would pray, cool down, relax, meditate, or whatever. It was their way of keeping these guys who were committing genocide from getting to a place where they could never come home mentally.

Has science ever really taken such a serious hit that even scientists themselves questioned their legitimacy?

Science is built to flexible: look at the world, make some observations, test, make predictions, repeat. If a foundational theory is found to be wrong, the problem is not with science, the problem is with the observation or prediction that was made, or the test performed. It's what scientific rigor is all about.
Science isn't any faith-based system: you are entirely free to perform any experiment yourself and see if your results agree with the prevailing scientific consensus. That's what peer review is for. Maybe you'll find something new; that's what Nobel prizes are for.
