Well, the Kingdom of Swadia sees itself as the heir of the Calradic Empire and thinks everyone is either breakoffs (i.e. Rhodoks) or Barbarian Niggers (Everyone)

Can science be a base of morality or religion is the only viable choice for that role?
>>1486768
Ask Johnathon Haidt and Sam Harris

>>1486768
Seems like a false dichotomy. Why would it need to be science or religion? There has been plenty of academic work done on moral philosophy that is not based on either.
>>1486768
Religion isn't a viable choice, since religious people have no basis for their morality beyond "it says so in this book". At least scientific attempts have some basis in objectivity, no matter how flawed they might be.
why do people in medieval art seem so emotionless and passive?
Because medieval artists fucking sucked and people try to excuse them with 'muh stylization'.
>>1486757
Because no one in medieval times gave a fuck.
Because the artists didn't know how to draw? When most of your culture consists of acts of chivalry (wars between lords, brave acts in battle etc.), obedience to your lord and going to church, there's really no reason to learn how to draw well

Anybody interested in Central Europe history? I never see anybody talking about this whole region (HRE, Poland, Hungary)
If you got any questions about it, i can give you answers
Poland is Eastern European.
Please speak about Hungary, Austria and Prussia. Particularly interested in the Habsburgs. Doesn't matter what. Just throw something out there.
Also, can you speak on the Teutonic state (Deutschordensstaat) and how it interacted with the with prussia and various territories it took like estonia. Were they civil?
Thanks.
What's the deal with Silesia. What made it so sought after and rich?
If you are pro-Israel, would that require that you are also pro-Afrikaner and pro-Polish Prussia?
>>1486461
No. Historically speaking, palestinians do not exist.
>>1486461
I'm pro-Afrikaner in the sense that I think the British were sticking their dicks where they didn't belong in the Boer wars and resorted to murdering the civilian populace of two very well-run countries when they couldn't hold onto the countryside militarily.
I'm pro-Israel in that I consider them to be a picture of stability in the clusterfuck of instability that is the middle-east; and regardless of Western support, it is impressive that they've managed to hold onto independence so well.
Polish Prussia I don't really know anything about to be honest.
DESU the only reason I dislike the British conduct in the Boer republics is the bullshit immigration issue they cited as the reason for going to war instead of just admitting that they wanted the gold and diamonds - thus they claim that they committed both a war and a genocide because naturalisation took too long in their opinion. And then claim to be the good guys.
I wouldn't say that being pro-Afrikaner requires being pro-Israel, but I believe the nation of Israel and the Boer republics are similar enough that a person who likes the one is likely to like the other:
-small population
-highly nationalist
-surprisingly strong military capability
-very aggressive neighbors
-socially conservative
>>1486742
This. The Palestinian nationality was made up in an effort to get the West to see the "Palestinians" as the underdogs instead of Israel. If the "Palestinians" ever manage to beat the Israelis and "retake" the entirety of Israel, people will quickly realize that the identity is about as meaningless as every other "national" identity in the Middle East, and that they actually assisted in a genocide because of this idiocy. I don't think people would react very well to it.

I ran across a French Napoleonic-era (I think) one a while back which was fairly upbeat, and was essentially:
>the roads are long and dusty
>our feet hurt
>we're tired
>but it's okay because there's always a pretty girl behind the next bend
Are miracles possible? Can their possibility be reasonably entertained? Or are they, as Hume contends, impossible and to be dismissed?
>>1486406
I take it you're affirming Hume?
>>1486401
>Are miracles possible?
Define "miracle".
I'm new to history cause High school only taught a few wars but it never taught me any roman history or Greek Who did the Romans fight what were the lives of civilians and the higher ups Etc.
They clearly didn't teach grammar either.

It is possible for men to display physical affection for one another without their being an implication of some illicit interest. I would argue that all touch has an element of sexuality to it, in so far as sex is a form of social bonding like touch, but that does not mean that everyone you do touch is a sexual object for you.
There was a time when it was possible for men to be close to one another in a way that is not any longer. This is regrettable, as it means men lose that capacity for social bonding that remains open to women, and must search out that bonding through other, more violent forms which subvert the real intention behind the action.

What does /his/ think about antinatalism?
>>1486066
Cowardice.
>>1486066
Antinatalists should practice what they preach and literally kill themselves.
>>1486066
I'm not interested in having kids myself, but even so I have a really hard time taking antinatalism seriously when literally every antinatalist I know is a permavirgin with an obvious case of sour grapes.
Are there people here who believe that reason is philosophically a "failed" endeavor? Are there really people who think that researchers in science and technology struggle to justify the inquiries they make and the methodological means by which they make them? If so, on what grounds do you believe this? What are the minimal beliefs you hold, without which, you would believe differently.
>Hard Mode: No "Physics built the bomb that nuked Hiroshima" or "All the trains to Auschwitz ran on time"
Anti-rationalist here, there's pretty clearly a corelation between use of "reason" and "facts" and millions of innocents being slaughtered by freemasons, we should rely on God not man.

Funny you mention correlation, because it isn't the same as causation. If you truly believe in the divine providence of God, you should go full Christian Science, flush all your medications down the toilet, stop using your seatbelt, and never go to to the doctor again. I'm sure it will turn out swell.
