Which side was the villainous side in Trojan War?

It didn't really happen. At least not in the way it's described in the Iliad. If you're referring to the Iliad though, then probably the Greeks.

You can live in Song China with strong belief and intention.
Remember, the more you say " I can't " The more you manifest the "Not ever doing something"
So OP's sadness babble isn't just detrimental to those reading but to their self.
With the end of the GOP's Convention, and the party's new era dawning, I'm left wondering: what is the common thread linking the party's history? They have been, traditionally, known as the "big tent party," after all - sheltering libertarians and social conservatives with left-leaning moderates and progressives throughout its history.

Oil, west and south are the regions most dependent on Oil, since the railway buildout in the north missed them out.
Plus the western region is dependent on extractive industries which produce and consume oil.
Seems there isn't much linking the generations of Republicans apart from maybe leaning heavier to the nationalistic side (with varying degrees). That was one of the main points of contention between the old Whigs and Democrats, especially in the south (allegiance more toward the nation as a whole vs. one's state). Teddy Roosevelt seemed to have some nationalist and imperialist leanings. Republicans were largely against the League of Nations and the UN (which we still see today).

Oil is a common thread beyond the Republican party, your response contains meaningful content but is far from pertinent.
The GOP is older than the oil economy, anyway.
Basically you're fucking gay.

Why did Catholic Church allowed to paint pagan God? Makes zero sense to me.

Why do they let people who don't speak English use the internet?
Nobody knows.
>>1449426
What?
Also, Icons (essentially what the RC's statues and paintings are) were deemed permissible prior to the schism.
If you're upset about the RC's usage of art, you probably should stay 100+ mi. away from Orthodox Churches, you'd have a heart attack.

Before the interstate system was conceived in the 1950s but after the car was well established, like in the 1930s, could you drive coast to coast in the US without using any unpaved roads? Or was infrastructure for intercity car travel just absolute shit?
It was absolute shit. In fact, a military convoy across the country including a young Dwight Eisenhower - which took TWO MONTHS - was a major inspiration for the interstate system.
There had been previous projects to get more roads built, but rail travel was still the dominant way to get across the country.
If you were traveling by automobile long distance prior to the 1930s you'd have been smart carrying something like this. The roads were sparsely policed and highwaymen operated with impunity
Why is psychology so shit? The study of the human brain and behaviour is a valid since but on one hand it's completely speculative philosphy with vast theories about everything and on the other hand it's autistic scientism proving that if you force someone to do something they do it.
>>1449125
It's not shit, it's just really hard to do experiments that won't introduce bias and will only measure a few variables at a time because human behavior is so complex.
It's also a relatively new field, so they're still figuring some things out. But psych has made some good contributions to the modern world, like CBT and other evidence-based therapies.

Just another concept Christians "borrowed" from Greek philosophy.

In most contexts I've seen it used, it tends to refer to logic or something like so.
Is there anything to Fomenko's New Chronology or is it just the disjointed ramblings of an unstable Russian?
>>1448941
The latter. Pretty funny stuff though, like reading Germans rave about Atlantis and Hyperborea.
He's actually a good mathematician, but yeah, that's just disjointed ramblings.

Can we finally deal away with the "Tukhachevsky was a military genius" meme?
His track record is surprisingly mediocre. The 1920 catastrophe in Poland was largely due to him allowing his units to become spread and overextended (Stalin today usually receives the blame on account of being Stalin). Also, there's absolutely no record of him actually formulating any ideas that would be precursor of Blitzkrieg of the later Deep Battle doctrine. He gets this shit attributed to him only since 1980s.
so, wasn´t he a personal friend of Guderian before the war?
>>1448935
Actually, I think that was Charles De Gaul. He and Tukachevsky were POWs in Germany during WW 1.
