When they couldn't handle the banter

>>1708547
didn't you read that part in the koran where it describes mohammed beheading a christian and raping his wife, then disembowling the wife, and being rewarded by allah for it?

I'm pretty sure only divine inspiration could have made that so similar to the buddhist koans that describe peace as the highest virtue

Yep, this is the only thing that keeps me from killing myself, I'd be stuck reliving this shitty life forever. Have to make enough good to outweigh the bad before I die.

The one about him having one testicle is a baseless rumor

Hitler's nephew was such a conniving cuntish coward.

>>1708776
In 1933, William Patrick Hitler returned to Germany in an attempt to benefit from his uncle's rise to power. His uncle found him a job at the Reich Credit Bank in Berlin. Later, William worked at an Opel automobile factory, and later still as a car salesman. Dissatisfied with these jobs, William persisted in asking his uncle for a better job, writing to him with blackmail threats that he would sell embarrassing stories about the family to the newspapers unless his "personal circumstances" improved.

In 1938, Adolf asked William to relinquish his British citizenship in exchange for a high-ranking job. Expecting a trap, William fled Nazi Germany; he again tried to blackmail his uncle with threats. This time, William threatened to tell the press that Hitler's alleged paternal grandfather was actually a Jewish merchant. Returning to London he wrote an article for Look magazine titled "Why I Hate my Uncle.

Why? She's essentially immortal through her poetry. People still know of her thousands of years after her death.

At least he got to shoot a lot of guns and hang out in the woods.

I feel worse for the woman who married him.

Nope, all the consistent ones turn god into a mindless zombie that barely deserves the title "god"

I am nt sure why you would expect any answer to "the problem of evil" that would necessarily make you feel good or content.

>>1707981
Because if you don't truly feel content in the answer, it puts your faith into question. Will God actual accept your belief if you have misgiving and doubts about things like this? It means that on some subconscious level, you resent God

I'm sure it wasn't boring to the people crawling through narrow tunnels and worrying about falling into punji traps

>>1707415
Well for the spectator it's a very boring war.

>>1707496

>greatest waste of money in history
possibly, the only other that comes to mind is the field of cloth of gold when Henry VIII spent shit loads of money to build a temporary palace just to party with Francis I and improve relations, then makes an alliance with Charles V later that year

A quick glance at Wikipedia reveals that the BB-35 Texas saw a shitload of war. WTF are you talking about.

>>1706984
Why do you think medieval pike formations died?

>>1706984
there is no effective difference in cannons between the Thirty Years War and the American Civil War.

the only difference is the amount of cannons an economy could produce and the army could field.

>>1706994
Because of bayonets becoming common but even then tight infantry formations were a thing for centuries to come.

Probably attacked and absorbed into a local tribe.

>>1706840
Destroyed by Injuns.

But shitlibs will try to tell me with a straight face that they peacefully decided to join the local tribe(s)

I suspect they pushed inland after a hurricane wiped out the colony, trying to find undevastated place to live and. Their are intriguing hints of European penetration into inland Carolinas and possibly Georgia that show that some of them MAY have gotten a fair ways inland, presumably merging with or being killed by local tribes along the way somewhere.

But where they were sitting was basically wearing a really a big "Hey hurricanes, kick our asses!" sign around their necks.

20th century history and bronze age.

A little bit of classical for taste.

>>1706837
late prehistoric era, mid-classical era, renaissance, 00s-30s and 50s-70s are my favorites but really I like all history.

Right know i'm interested in japanese story, specially prior to the shogun era.

Who's they? The Germans? The Nazis?

In either case they didn't.

>The earliest substantiated evidence of either coffee drinking or knowledge of the coffee tree is from the 15th century, in the Sufi monasteries of Yemen. By the 16th century, it had reached the rest of the Middle East, Persia, Turkey, Horn of Africa, and northern Africa. Coffee then spread to the Balkans, Italy and to the rest of Europe, to Indonesia and then to America.

>>1706652
When were plantations established there? All I remember about coffee history in Europe is that in central Europe coffee got popular after lifting the Ottoman siege of Vienna when christian coalition captured Turkish supplies which were unsurprisingly full of the beans.

>>1706652
Coffee became popular in the 16th century.
