I destroy Marxists with my infinite knowledge of Communist Crimes, my vast individualist philosophy and intellectual rigor anihilates anarcucks, and my courage to face the truth lets me take down the Jewish plot to make white women hate me.

I have won over 300 debates with Marxists.

Emperor Popatine was really a man who embodied the classic popes at a time when a classic tradition following pope was exactly what the church did not need at the time, and to compound the issue he never truly wanted the job in the first place I feel. He was always more comfortable behind the scenes and when writing theological works.

I feel his legacy will be one of the placeholder, the man who recognized when he was not fit for the job and gracefully bowed out to live a life of religious contemplation. I highly recommend reading his various writings.

Nearly every modern warship has a flight deck and aviation hanger to take advantage of helicopters. But most WW2 era warships don't didn't these, unless they were purpose-built aircraft carriers. And even then, they only carrier prop-planes, not helicopters. Why is this? Did they just not know how to make them? What was the technological breakthrough that made helicopters a reality for the first time?

Also, if one side had started using helicopters during WW2, how might the other side have gone about countering them?

>During World War II, Nazi Germany used helicopters in small numbers for observation, transport, and medical evacuation. The Flettner Fl 282 Kolibri synchropter—using the same basic configuration as Anton Flettner's own pioneering Fl 265—was used in the Mediterranean, while the Focke Achgelis Fa 223 Drache twin-rotor helicopter was used in Europe.[citation needed] Extensive bombing by the Allied forces prevented Germany from producing any helicopters in large quantities during the war.

I think all major religion are fakes made to better control poeple and make them do what one wants.
They all appeared suddenly and then a book with the "word of god" is written and immediately brought around in the world to teach it to the most poeple.

The "natural" religions of men were those you can still see in isolated tribes : a multitude of deities, or spirits, or other entities, representing an aspect of nature or human life. So was paganism which was wiped out thanks to our holy church inquisition.

Also, logically, if there's more than one religion claiming to introduce the real true god and saying different things, one to all of them should be fake.

These religions, christianism, judaism, islam, have brought only dissension and war to the world, via thinking control through fear. And still it does today.

Fuck all religions and those who use them and are used by them for shady purposes.

Let science and TRUTH be our guide!

Judaism, Christianity and Islam have all the same messages as Egyptian religion, Paganism, etc. It is the people who use religion to gain authority over other, corrupting the truth about each religion. It is all the same, but you must research this yourself. There is no true religion, but there are true laws that operate the Universe.

Philosophers-kings of the esteemed mongolian fingerpainting forum, inform me on morality

Is it better to be a "good" person that is physically ugly, or a "bad" person that is physically beautiful? Isn't it so that people of differing moral systems and cultures can agree generally on visual aesthetics?

To an extent, the rules of artistic composition also enjoy a greater consensus and objectivity than moral laws, which can be easily disputed and offer numerous vigorously contrasting theories on right action.

Take the infamous trolley problem.

Applying artistic guides to the utilitarian perspective offers a solution: run over the five people who are less beautiful than the single one.
However, this still has inadequate explanatory power if the trolley's potential victims are all of average, comparable beauty. This is where I think an additional, objective, consensus measure of value can be injected, weighing by wealth in addition to beauty. If beauty is a value of enjoyment, and money is acquired from producing goods/services that enhance enjoyment, surely it must follow that a rich, beautiful person offers my value to the world than a beautiful, poor one and certainly more than an ugly, poor one.

Feel free to share your thoughts.
Do you think money and physical beauty are inadequate expressions of moral worth? Should something else be added? Or, are they independent of morality altogether as someone from the virtue ethics school might presume?

I have a really appreciations for fine historical art, something about the care taken to show all the action and every detail makes me love it.

Take this, one of my all time favourites you can see the pride in their eyes for what comes next, feel the tension and glory. Why did modern art stray so much from this kind of raw beauty?
