Why does Zen Mind Beginners Mind annoy me so much? Is this just pure shite have I been memed?

It just reads like pseudo-philosophy from a "spiritual" edgy 12 year old. Or something a coked up "positive energy" californian val girl would spew out of her vagina to sound 2deep4u.

Why is accepting evolution still such a huge issue in America? Is it because of the education system? Is it because it's too complicated or difficult to understand or fathom? Or is something else the issue? People say it's religion, but Christianity shouldn't conflict with evolution at all.

Because Southern Baptists never got the memo that biblical literalism is bullshit that most Christians abandoned more than a thousand years ago.

The regime's economic policies didn't change the everyday lives of the serfs very much, though the wars they started did.

The Roman Empire had a LOT of slaves. Was it Christianity that largely ended this immense scale of abject slavery in Europe?

I was recently told that Hungarians aren't slavs but are instead an ethnic group called Magyars and are some kind of Uralic people.
I found this interesting and since I'm half Hungarian I'm curious, what can /his/ tell me about the Magyars and their origins?

that'd be correct

congrats, part of your family is now special snowflake, because Magyars are a non-indo-european people, like you said, uralic, who traveled to Hungary from central-ish russia and are related to Finns, Sami, Estonians, and a couple other bumfuck tribes around the Ural mountains.

No she didn't. She was called "virging queen" because she never married, but she shagged few lads.

France was a fucking nationalist mess in the 19th century.

Louis-Napoleon spoke with a swiss accent, and because of that (not only but you get the point), many people of the right wing ("parti de l'ordre") thought he would be easy to manipulate. He plays his cards really well. He had written a book about the poors, gaining their sympathy. Slowly he distanced himself from the parti de l'ordre and their unpopular measures, and appointed his friends at the right places. His coup d'état was very well organized, despite some resistance in the rest of France.

>>1627218
Napoleon the Lesser's coup was just for personal power as he had no vision and made nothing out of France.

You would need to go way back in time, to Barbarossa's time and tell him to stay away from the water. Which wouldn't be much of a deal anyway.

Or better, further back to the Henrys times and advice them to stop trying to cuck the Pope, cause he gonna fuck your shit up.

>How come Thailand become the only south east asian country to never be colonised?

they were left alone more because of their function as a buffer between french indochina and british india. also southern thailand were held by the brits i think
>>
>>1626794
Luck.

Brits expanded into Burma and French took Indochina. Figured out that Thailand could just be itself to avoid conflict.

Though the French were quite dickish to the Thai since they stole bits of their realm. Part of the reason why Thailand (Foolishly) entered the war on Japan's side in WWII.

Well, for one thing, there would be no such thing as Philippines or Singapore(as we know them).

Thailand, Burma, and Vietnam would still be there, ruled by their monarchies, while """"""Malaysia""""" """"""""""Indonesia""""""""""" and the """"""""""Philippines""""""""" wouldn't exist at all. In their place would be hegemonic city states, small tribal kingdoms, and semi-nomadic tribesmen in between.
