Reading the Bible won't really give you a sense of the difference. Read a book on the subject or ask pastors and priests

Most of Germans had no problems with Nazis, and most of "resistance" was just resistance to Hitler and not Nazi ideals.
So wasn't it a mistake and injustice to spare German nation after WW2?
They should've been enslaved and distributed around Europe to fix the damage they caused.
I'm pretty sure they aren't even bothered by Nazism today, they are just pretending because it would be a suicide to admit it.

It's actually pretty easy to trigger everyone around you when you're a brainlet. Part of being stupid is that you annoy people without understanding why.

Bringing about an unlawful, or a socially damaging action, which would not of occurred without the persuader's intercession.

While the argument could be made that the person may have committed the offence regardless, the case at hand is one of actuality and not speculation.

The key word at the end is intent.

The Industrial Revolution was a mistake. Yes, it has greatly lengthened the human lifespan, cured hideous diseases, and wiped out illiteracy. But it has done all of this at the price of poisoning the planet, slowly but surely killing everybody and everything. In seeking to make our lives more comfortable, we have unwittingly planted the seeds of our own extinction. We should not celebrate scientists nor "inventors" as heroes, for they are the ones who have enabled this unparalleled catastrophe.

Yep. I volunteer myself to build a preindustrial empire in the most convenient and suitable place for anons to gather and discuss the new laws and customs of the land.

I think that Western Sahara is among the top locations, because it has some really disgusting borders that we can fix by annexing the surroundings.

Can some anons recommend me some books on this subject. I've read the bible and I spend hours on Wikipedia. There are so many people and ideas to read about, I don't want to be overwhelmed. Its a large topic I realize so maybe some of your favorite books?

A good area to look at is early English Christianity, and not merely because it is an interest area of mine, but because it is a nice way to view how it spread in a concise area, with a few consistent voices.
Look to Bede, he's a good starter with his books: The Ecclesiastical History of the English people and The Age of Bede (more of a compilation of smaller texts but still), he's a dodgy source overall, but a good introduction into the affairs of the early clergy in the British Isles, the rabbit hole goes from there.
Theology wide, Aquinas is a good start, Augustine of Hippo also.
>>
>>3253301

Thanks for the reply. I think I am going to start with Confessions by Augustine. Looks interesting and should give me insight. I'll move to Bede afterwards.

1. Population growth, more men to throw into the meat grinder

2. Industrial revolution makes it possible to equip vast numbers of soldiers

Progressively
Early 19th century already had wars numbering millions

One of the main reasons was that to the best of my knowledge, there was no draft for a major nation until the French Revolution. This allowed countries to send millions of people into battle. Also, population growth obviously.

A.H.M Jones' Later Roman Empire is pretty old and doesn't have access to modern archaeological records but is still an excellent overview of him. I can also recommend some other great ones.
