Why do you think it's a meme religion? Because there are very few practitioners today compared to the amount it's brought up?

if this wasn't a telling sign of the quality of posts around here it would be fucking hilarious.

Of fucking course it's a 'meme' religion. ALL religions are memes.

What is the #1 reason you do not believe in god /his/? Letas talk theology philosophy.

Is --this-- thread again.

I don't hate Christianity but I can't stomach the following:

Infinite punishment for finite sin
Virtuous pagans like Plato and Aristotle are in hell, meanwhile king David (who, if we are to trust the bible, is a terrible person) is in heaven or Abraham's bosom or whatever, just not hell
Obvious influences from other religions while claiming to be exclusive revelation
Theology based entirely on Greek philosophy while maintaining that pagans were ignorant devil worshippers and the Church possesses the wholeness of truth
Preaches forgiveness of monsters like ISIS and the guy who did Nice
Love your enemies
Turn the other cheek
Neither Greek nor Jew

All of it, or do you have a question, like "why does God allow all these bad things to happen to someone who just wants to love God"? That's the usual one, at least.

I much prefer heraldry, flags are too boring since 99% of them are tricolors.

East Asian flags are great though.

Pinochet isn't reviled. He's largely unknown. Also the economy under him was more controlled than under the previous socialist government.

There is a big theological discussion in Islam about predestination and free will and how the two relate. The same is true with Christianity. Don't oversimplify things.

Society is the relationship between people. It is so empty, because we are not working together but all working in our own self interest collectively. Asking how can I help myself, and then how can you help me?

Your parents, as their parents have, will tell you to grow up get a job and have a family. People not knowing anything else, never questioning or asking, will take this solution and at the end of their lives say "I don't know what it was all for."

I do not wish to exit society, to go live in a cabin far up north in the woods. I wish to maintain a relationship with other human beings.

But I put no importance on money. I put no importance on material wealth because none of that helps me to achieve what I desire.

So let's talk together about what one can do. How one can maintain a presence in society but remain independent of it.

So what you're really asking, if I'm understanding this correctly, is how can you stay a neet but still remain sociable?
>>
>>1430548
Not a NEET in the political sense of the word that I get money from the government, but a NEET in the sense that I am not imprisoned by society. That the will of others is not forced upon me. But yes, that I may still interact with my fellow man.
>>
>>1430635
Well in that case it would be hella difficult.. you still have to survive and because everywhere on earth food shelter clothing and other essential human needs have a cost (even if you live on NEETbucks) you'd be hard pressed to find someone let alone a group of people who would be willing to pal around with somebody who has no desire to get off his ass and figure out how to provide for himself be it food or booze or whatever. I assume you don't want to panhandle either because despite it requiring 0 skills other than looking like you need money and finding a cardboard sign with something legible written on it, technically it is still work that gets done to provide for oneself.

How did people communicate in the ottoman empire when you had dozens of different ethnicities living together.
Aside from maybe maybe merchants and government officis most people probably wouldn't speak a different language than their mother language.

1. Depends how far back we're talking. If you mean the period from about the fall of Rome to the Age of Exploration that is on that graph, then no.

Yes, there were two: the Roman era, and the Renaissance.

Why did he drink so much water, though? Also, Serbs are a shitty people with unwarranted ideas of superiority who should be exterminated, along with the rest of former Yugoslavia.

How would Nazi Germany have dealt with the likelihood that, while returning to a manned space mission, their astronauts could miscalculate the landing and end up in a Soviet or Allied territory (let's get serious, even a victorious Nazi Germany couldn't have brought them to submission, at best they could've sit with them at the same table and negotiate peace on equal terms)?
Would've account for the astronauts to commit suicide with a poison capsule before being captured?
How would this news be dealt (if published at all) in the Fatherland=

Did the US consider the possibility that their astronauts could have ended up in Soviet territory?

I'm guessing it would've been the same thing.

What do you guys think of this quote?

"The reason that people don’t correct the incongruities in their ideology is because they have primarily identified with that ideology and abandoning it for a more logical framework would necessitate decomposing their self-identity. This cognitive dissonance is painful and most people prefer to retreat to their neatly-packaged framework they’ve always held.

Social justice and science are pillars upon which Western Civilization rests, but without a logical foundation, they morph into bastardized versions of social justice warfare and scientism using injustice to achieve justice and being unscientific about science. Without a logical foundation, these pillars of Western Civilization collapse into rubble and may well take the entire culture with it.

The solution is obvious. Instead of identifying as a social justice advocate or a skeptic first, we should all strive to identify primarily with logic. An argument or ideology should be at the very least self-consistent and unless we can all agree on that, we’re going to be faced with endless wasted arguments and risk losing our collective mind for good."

>implying people care about logic or consistency instead of results
>>
Pretty much explains why i dont label my beliefs as an ideology. If they are not connected by an overarching system, they can be challenged individually.
>>
>>1430580

Let me make sure I understand:

"People are scared of change because then they have to admit they're wrong, and that makes them panic. People should also only commit to the most logical action because going by emotion makes them do stupid shit like "fighting for peace", and not understanding the difference between correlation and causation."(paraphrased)

I disagree. It is with emotion that we assign value to things for better, or worse. There are a few examples of individuals who sustained damage to parts of their brain which enabled emotion. These individuals were found to "know what they needed to do, but be unable to decide to do it."(paraphrased).

Unfortunately I could not find the specific article I paraphrased from, and can only point to the various clinical disorders associated with reduced/inability to understand, process, or display emotions so feel free to present any counter-argument just calling me a lying faggot.
