Am I the only one stunned that some person in this fucking world in history sacrificed every ounce of dignity to make fucking dick armour for Henry VIII?
That leaves the question: How did this blacksmith know how big the King's crotch area was?

>>1854677
He probably didn't. No doubt he made it intentionally oversized. Just for practicality more than anything.

I've seen that armour and Henry was a surprisingly big guy. Not just his member.
>>
I remember watching some documentary about how the crotch area was the weak point when it came to plate armor and that it was always the first place that was attacked when the opportunity arose. So I dunno, armoring the penis might b gud.
>>
>>1854677
Dude, fears of losing benis aside, the crotch area is a meeting point for major arteries. That gets fucked, it's over for you man.

"held responsible"
Like punished in a court of law?
Like being morally obligated to have taken some other action?

Philosophical puzzle for you:

What must be the ultimate goal of the pure nihilist, and why?

To suck massive cock

Being a nihilist means not having to waste your time wondering empty riddles such as "what is best in life?"

To maintain the illusion that there is no purpose in a world where people can choose whatever purpose they want and accepting nihilistic philosophy is now absolutely a purpose for him

Because fascism is aesthethics translated into politics.
You dont create a gargantuan government apparatus with great struggle to create an enviroment centered around a religion, or around an economic system or about making people as happy as possible.

No, the 20s-tier facist does it because you have that romanesque cool af althis scenario in your head which is dank as fuck and should totally exist!

A thread on monasticism, for those who have interest or even drawing to the monastic life. A very difficult life in Orthodoxy, one that tests you against all sorts of demons and struggle, but which will purify you with fire.

>A monk, then, as a soldier of Christ ever ready for battle, ought always to walk with his loins girded.
- Saint John Cassian

>A monk is a mourning soul that both asleep and awake is unceasingly occupied with the remembrance of death.
-Saint John of the Ladder

All other questions relating to Orthodoxy also welcome.

Every demon a monk faces a normie already faces, actually a normie faces more because he doesn't have the luxury of living in a cloistered, quiet hermitage, but has to live among the people in the busy world, like Jesus and the apostles did.

I think monasticism is fine in short periods, a month here, a couple months there....a year at the most. But it should never be a long term life style for any Christian.
>>
>>1849474
Christ faced much more direct temptation in the desert than among other people.

Monasticism is a hard life, because you have to devote everything to God. There is no "you" time.
>>
>>1849515
>There is no "you" time

that applies to living among people. time should be spent wisely, but it's more difficult since there are so many distractions and problems.

Christ and his apostles lived among people far more than in the desert.

What are some examples of historical memes?

There's a lot of jungle keeping the Chinese or something from showing up any unifying everything.

And then there's all those islands.

Very hilly terrain, too much foliage, too hot and humid for any outside culture to properly conquer, not centralized enough and just generally not worth it.

These SEA kingdoms would trade with outsiders getting new ideas and cultural influences.

Why didn't the Far-East make good boats so they could go to the Americas and shit?
52 posts and 10 images submitted.

It's much farther from Asia to the Americas than from Europe.

Also the Chinese had everything they needed at home so they didnt't really bother besides sending Zheng He out to collect tributes. The rest of Asia (Japan, Korea, etc.) were content to be left alone and not explore across a seemingly endless ocean.

Aren't Native Americans technically asian?

No not really. It's because they migrated away from their coal deposits and never developed.

Why does Judaism depart from other abrahamic faiths in being matrilineal instead of descending by patriarchy? Did oppression of Jews mean they had to by policy appropriate even rape babbies?

>Annex the Danzig corridor and western Poland
>Retire and ride off into the sunset
