Your own filename answers your question. By grade five, they'd know enough to get along fine in daily life.

If they want to read certain stuff, it seems they are. There is a thing called furigana or somethin like that. Basically they write the hiragana reading of every kanji in a smaller size.

I cannot understand how those forms of writing evolved and especially survived.

To me it demonstrates a fundamental difference in thought.

Also what do they do when a new word is invented, or a new name.

American Civil war/ lost cause/ CSA pride.

Its an interesting war with interesting policies that led to it. But it gets reduced to mu statesrites and the south will rise again.

>you will never hang out with CSA vets

Whether you agree with their cause or not, there's no denying something irreplaceable died with them.

Yes, there were many messengers sent before the time of Jesus. The ones that believed those would be Christian I guess

People have always been saved the same way; God determines them to be righteous by what they believe.

Jesus said if anyone believed Moses and the prophets, they believed in Jesus, as Moses and the prophets were speaking of Jesus.

Jesus also told a story about Hades, where one side, Paradise, was populated before He was born. So there have always been saved people, and there have always been more unsaved people.

Your problem is you, not them.

But society is just made up of individuals.

You need to delineate them better.

Would it be better for a government to identify the individual?
>Create or allow systems which leave individuals to their own devices
Or incorporate them into systems/societies?
>Develop unifying systems which incorporate individuals into a common good or belief

>>1493023
It depends tbqh.

We are so steeped in a kind of faux individualism in this culture, a kind of individualism that sees hedonism as it's praxis, but everything else is supposed to be communal in some way, such as charity, welfare, voting etc.

Question is, should more of the so-called "system" be left to the individual, instead of simply what he drinks and who he fucks?

Well I don't really know. I have my reflexive thoughts on it, but they are probably wrong.

Cite your sources then, kiddo.

I've never seen these quotes attributed to anything other than the shitty facebook groups they originated from.

“And the climax of popular liberty, my friend,” I said, “is attained in such a city when the purchased slaves, male and female, are no less free than the owners who paid for them. And I almost forgot to mention the spirit of freedom and equal rights in the relation of men to women and women to men.” “Shall we not, then,” said he, “in Aeschylean phrase, say “whatever rises to our lips’?” “Certainly,” I said, “so I will. Without experience of it no one would believe how much freer the very beasts subject to men are in such a city than elsewhere. The dogs literally verify the adage and ‘like their mistresses become.’ And likewise the horses and asses are wont to hold on their way with the utmost freedom and dignity, bumping into everyone who meets them and who does not step aside. And so all things everywhere are just bursting with the spirit of liberty.” “It is my own dream you are telling me,” he said; “for it often happens to me when I go to the country.” “And do you note that the sum total of all these items when footed up is that they render the souls of the citizens so sensitive that they chafe at the slightest suggestion of servitude and will not endure it? For you are aware that they finally pay no heed even to the laws written or unwritten, so that forsooth they may have no master anywhere over them.” “I know it very well,” said he.

“The same malady,” I said, “that, arising in oligarchy, destroyed it, this more widely diffused and more violent as a result of this licence, enslaves democracy. And in truth, any excess is wont to bring about a corresponding reaction to the opposite in the seasons, in plants, in animal bodies, and most especially in political societies.” “Probably,” he said. “And so the probable outcome of too much freedom is only too much slavery in the individual and the state.” “Yes, that is probable.” “Probably, then, tyranny develops out of no other constitution than democracy—from the height of liberty, I take it, the fiercest extreme of servitude.”

fucking retarded, failed at literally every single one of its goals
because of these retards Germany itself was completely fucking destroyed and didn't recover for nearly 50 years, Prussia was turned into Polish and Russian clay, and communism spread all the way to Central Europe
I don't know why people idolise these retards, they got their asses kicked to the fucking curb

yeah most of those people don't understand shit, you can bring up rome falling and technology being spayed while culture radically changed in a non linear way but they will continue to push this "progress" narrative, that we are all destined to globalize into one race, culture, and atheistic, stateless society that will invent space travel to transcend the cosmos.

they unironically think communism is the logical conclusion to humanity

>Why do most people hold a progressive/whiggish/linear view of history?

It's comforting to think that your generation is the epitome of human progress and that you're an improvement over your forefathers. It's also very, very easy go be ignorant about the past. Can't stand whig history, myself.

Are you asking why, in a scenario of total war, a combatant would attack a strategically important objective instead of deliberately missing it?

Seems like that would be a lot less effective.

Do you mean the Indo-Europeans?

Um.....just because they were called "Indo-Europeans" doesn't mean they looked like modern day Indians. You actually have it the other way around. The Indo-Europeans started around Ukraine and went down into India, where they were known as Aryans---- hint hint: that's why the Nazis were so adamant in claiming that Indians were Aryans. It's not that the Nazis wanted to be Indians, but the Nazis tried to prove that all good things come from whites.

And yes, early India was dominated by people with white skin, blue eyes, and gold hair, but they eventually disappeared

The same reason that Democrats worship Clinton. Because the guy has an (R) or a (D) next to their name and the partisans blindly support them because of this, despite the bad things they've done that might have even negatively affected them personally.

>>1491096
Because the average people are told he's a national fucking hero whether that is true or not. Same can be said about Washington, Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, etc., whether they were mediocre to outright bad presidents they're treated as Gods among men over their stewardship.

>even though everyone with half a brain could plainly see the Soviet Union would fall apart on its own soon enough
Bull fucking shit here. No one in their right mind thought the Soviets were going to fall apart in 1989. Not even the people in the COMBLOC. That shocked the shit out of EVERYBODY.

A crook, a lame duck, and a stick in the mud as presidents
