How often can you come across ancient stones or ruins while traveling through Europe? If you're taking a scenic drive through the countryside are you likely to see a few, or are they sparse enough that one would have to go out a long ways to find one? How often do Europeans see these kinds of things in their surrounding area?

What do you mean by ancient stones?

Only runes or also other megalithic structures?
>>
I'm a burger but I've been to Ireland and there were a number of dilapidated castles or ruins with no signage or anything signifying what it was. Especially in the southeastern areas.

what the fuck is gnosticism
im really confused on this can someone explain it to me
52 posts and 15 images submitted.
>>
WTF is this
>>
Christian heresy (it wasn't all Christian but that's what people mean when they say gnosticism) that taught dualism between the spiritual and material world and between good and evil
the material world was usually of the evil or at least imperfect and was under a lesser god than the one true god aka the devil
also they commonly taught god as distant and impersonal unlike proper christianity

there's more to it but that's the short description
dualism and conflict between material and spiritual is the essence
>>
>>1708171
is normal christianity also dualist?

133 posts and 5 images submitted.
>>
he wasn't right though.

communists/far left have utterly failed at infiltrating American governmental institutions.

The only place they have succeeded is at universities and more broadly in the culture (news/media/arts). Through these cultural and academic positions they have pushed forward some political changes, but almost all in the social realm.

>>1706034
Do you have a source on the whole "McArthy was actually right" thing?

I've been looking ever since I heard it but it seems to just be a meme.

Athiests, in which way do you feel that modern scientific thought and Darwinism contradict and/or nullify the presence of a divine being in your mind? Be specific.

Atheist here. I don't. It may contradict specific gods. I think Darwin makes the case in The Greatest Show On Earth that in contradicts the Abrahamic god, but I don't remember the details. I'm not trying to tell you to go read the book or anything like thay, but I think Darwin is making that argument. If
A person views religious creation myths or flood myths as historical events, that's contradicted.
>>
>>1702300
desu I dont care and talk about religion at all.

I fucking hate you damnass American atheists, you gotta act superiour to others because you think not believing in bullshit
makes you better. It fucking sickens me.

I grew up in completely irreligious country and I've never in my life talked about religion, so I dont need to refute it or anything.
I just fucking dont think about it.

Same as you guys who didnt fucking read Harry Potter books dont care about Harry Potter.

Please stop connecting atheists with "refuting religion", I dont give a flying fuck about that shit dude.
And atheists that have need to talk about it are just fucking cunts.

Who was worse /his/

Nazi Germany or the Soviet Union
129 posts and 9 images submitted.

The Soviet Union was worse. People had to work with the same wages, give up their property, and weren't allowed foreign imports. At least in the Nazi party, people were given bread, etc. and Hitler helped boost the economy again. Economy was down in Soviet Union because factories lied about making a certain amount of products and selling them.
>>
>>1695158

The Soviet Union was worse.

The Nazis only oppressed a small percentage of the population.
>>
>>1695158
The Soviet Union purely because it lasted longer.

Mizra Akhundov was Azeri ethnically, he was a great writer and strong advocate of secularism and atheism. He was very critical of Iran and Azerbaijan, Islam and eastern life.

Why did the Greco-Romans give up their mythology in favor of the Christian one? It was so much richer, and holy fuck is Christian mythology lame in comparison.

I've always been curious, if we fade away when we die into nothingness, what's the point of living life in a purposeful way, if there is no free will?

I've tried to buy it, but I can't align myself with the "you will have an impact on others/you will leave a legacy" bullshit, because even then those people die, so it's like I die a "second time". I just can't see how "we" end.

How do atheists cope with such a nihilistic view?

Atheist here, I don't really understand the question. You live to make yourself and others happy. That in it self should be enough, no?
>>
>>1702908
I don't I just live as well as I can while I still can. There's not much else you can do really except hope someone figures out immortality before you die.
>>
>>1702908
Yes because surely God wants humans to have free will you stupid christian fucktard.
