I know that feel and it saddens me greatly.

When's the new naively idealistic revolution gonna happen, folks? I need to escape this prison of nihilism.

>Have historically equal societies
Such as...? Naive egalitarianism is a meme. Engels was a shitty anthropologist, and his work in "The Origin of the Family, Private Property and the State" has been widely discredited by contemporary analysis.

ayyyyy /leftypol/

I would also be interested in this.

In all honesty, there was not that much 'resistance' on part of the pagans. This because paganism is not an established religion like Christianity: it does not have any real central tenet or one central figure or establishment, and unlike the Abrahamic religions, paganism does (did) not generally compete with others for exclusivity.

There was some resistance from some philosophers and scholars such as Poryphry and Celsus, who wrote treatsies against the religion. Then there was also Emperor Julian (called the Apostate by later Christians), who sought to return the Empire to paganism. However, he failed because of the reasons I said: paganism does not have a central tenet or figure around which to rally around, and its non-competitive nature made it hard to compete with Cucktianity, which is competitive to its core.

There was some resistance though, but it tended to be on the smaller end of the scale: pagan priests defending their temples from Christian rioters, villagers particularly devoted to a local god or spirit refusing to convert, philosophers and learned men finding Christianity to be idiotic and preferring the pagan gods due.

I am more interested in the Pagan resistance to Christianity TODAY.

Is that world war 1?

And really they should've just made an expansion about the abyssinian war if they wanted to have nignogs. I mean, seeing Italy get BTFO by Based Ethiopia woulda been nice.

I would say it was a necessary evil

It is like adapt or die type of thing yea

OP here. Ganna bamp.
Why did Descartes believed his thinking proved God's existence? What duties does he think God has to fulfill?
I always thought that was conceited as fuck. Why do humans seem to believe that thinking is such a huge deal? Humans seem to think everything revolves around them. Granted, humans can do many things other beings cannot. However, I'm still clinging on to the idea that there are other, possibly more powerful beings out there.
If humans stopped existing, would "God" cease to exist, too?

Is the self a metaphysical construct?

>>1395683
I think that depends on what you define the self as, and what your belief of reality consists of.

Yes.

The taxonomization and commodification of man has already begun. Soon we will all of us be but a piece of the machine.

The part where the Ayatollahs took over was.

Albeit the Islamic Republic was probably still an improvement over the Shah.

>>1393920
This. I rather wish Iran had gone in a different direction than theocracy, but I'll take the Islamic Republic over the KSA any day.

>>1393917
The fall of Persia to the Muslims was much worse to Iran. Being exhausted by war with the "Romans" allowed them to be overtaken by Arabic Muslims who over time would extinguish the unique Zoroastrian culture of Iran/Persia.

Yes, if suffering of one person can save lives of many.

No, Torture is a permanent evil, and thus forever unjustifiable.

Warhammers were pretty much only used when expecting to be fighting against armour

>>1392441
And axes were used pretty much only when expecting to chop wood so that's still a massive improvement.

>>1392447
The Danes, Franks and Anglo-Saxons were all fond of using axes in warfare.

As a two handed weapon they are lethal.

Lopez expected to gather support from Uruguayan blanco oppositionists, as well as from Urquiza in Argentina. This would have meant a serious threat to Buenos Aires and would have forced Brazil to terms. However, Paraguay didnt receive the expected support from the blancos and Urquiza even asked for Buenos Aires support to smash Lopez's forces.

So Lopez had a plan, he wasnt completely crazy. It was too risky, but it was nit impossible for him ti have succeeded.

>>1391903
didnt almost all their population die?

He wanted to be the South American Napoleon, but he ended up as the South American Hitler (war on multiple fronts, BTFO, half the population died and the country loses territory and relevance for ever).

Jesus Christ what's up with all the swordhate shitposting lately? Are we getting raided by /tg/ or something?
