Hey, /his/. Since we realized that there wasn't one yet, and its a form of education that's sorely lacking in modern day we're making a discord chatroom to be a general community of philosophy, and its general overlap with science, sociology, or other forms of theory. As well as to be a community in general.

We only just started up, but this is something that could be useful if if becomes big.

So Confucian role ethics are the right way?
>>1327156
No, ethics in the face of the Other is correct
>>1327190
Why do edgy philosophers always try to come up with their own non standard form of ethics. It just makes everyone look retarded.
What will be considered great literary works of this century?
I know Harry Potter will be LOTR-tier but what else?

desu it makes me sad that a series of books for children may be considered one of the greatest works from this century. on a side note if this was meant for /lit/ can we talk about the infantilisation of western society instead? just the other day I saw characters from a childrens film advertising broadband companies. its embarrassing

I'm liking those red pants.
The Danish army mid 20th century was the goofiest shit
Why are some countries (Italy/France/Japan) so great at creating culture/art, while others (Germany/China) are fucking terrible? I just don't get it.
(also, no plebs/germanboos ITT please)
>>1332235
China? Really?
Germany ok, but China has plenty of history and culture, art. Less known to the west.
Germanic ppl come from rather unpleasant lands, Mediterranean climate meant ppl can do other things except trying to survive the winter.
Patriarchal family structure values material success more than spiritual one.
>>1332235
lol, all western philosophy is basicly german thing... also social sciences and humanities in general. fuck them frenchies
Reading up on the history of great empires and civilizations there is a trend I have noticed. Almost every great empire in History fell due to invasions by semi-nomadic/pastoral people. I mean think about it.
The Indus valley civilization fell due to the Aryan invasion
The Hittite empire fell thanks to raids undertaken by the sea peoples
Rome fell due to invasions by Germanic Tribes/Huns
Song dynasty China fell due to the Mongol invasions
The Byzantine and Sassanid fell due to Turkic/Arab invasions
Why do you think this is /his/?
>>1331590
You are only looking at ancient empires right there.
Also, who else would stop them?
And then the barbarians turn into effeminate weakling after settling into civilized life
>>1331590
Fall is a strong word and implies being finished.
When some people like the likes of Egypt or China ousted their Nomadshit invaders out.

>At stake [...] is not just solidarity but fidelity to the memory and heritage of emancipatory struggles and he writes in defence of the Muslims, just as Zola wrote in defence of the Jews and Sartre wrote in defence of the blacks. For if we are to be for the oppressed then we must be for the Muslims.
What should we do to tackle the biggest social problem of our time?
>>1338119
Not let them into our countries. Now there is no problem.
>>1338121
The most important countries are already brimming with Muslims.
Where are you that there aren't any Muslims? There is even a growing Muslim population in Japan.

Are the Jews as bad as /pol/ says?
Are they really promiscuous, sex-crazed nihilists who control all the world's financial systems?
No.
In fact Jews are one of the most prosecuted and targeted groups troughout all of history.
They're not nihilists. They do it for the glory of HaShem

Can someone explain to me the hate on /his/ and /pol/ for Jews? Also which kind of Jew are we referring to? Are we making fun of zionist types or rich white stereotypes?
>>1320498
They murdered Jesus.

>"Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes?"
—Matthew 6:25
Sounds dumb. Buddha agreed that proper body care is needed else a dead man lying is of no use to edification of anything.
Excessive is however a problem.
>Literally telling people to not concern themselves with basic bodily functions like finding food and water
Is there anything in the whole universe more life-denying than Christianity?

Could Adam and Eve have been tree-dwelling ape-like creatures like Ardi or Toumai?
Were they cro-magnons?
>>1327196
Mitochondrial Eve and genetic Adam didn't live at the same time period or in the same location, so no.
This is what my Bible looked like. Not only did I read it cover to cover twice, but I also studied it and broke each verse down in its original language and used a Hebrew and Greek lexicon and concordance to study a word's original meaning and usage.
And do you know what I began to see? I saw men creating God in their own image. God is just a larger form of man's ego, only he's beyond accountability. God is simply what man fantasizes about becoming.
Religious men have even attributed man's ugly traits to their God - like jealousy, possessiveness, control, and vindictiveness. You would think that the politicians who wrote the Bible would be at least sophisticated enough to realize that if they made their God with these weak human characteristics that people might become suspicious about their invention.
I was raised in a religion that claimed "God is love" but he acts like a monster on every page of the Bible. They claim that God's love is unconditional, yet the Bible has more conditions than the iTunes terms of service agreement.
It wasn't until I left Christianity that I learned love without possession. And that kind of love is otherworldly to me. Love without possession seems right to me for some reason. It just makes more sense. I've had to unlearn Christian love and assimilate love without possession into my life and into every relationship. I have a son and a daughter, but they are not mine. I've been given the honor of parenting them, but their lives are their own. They both have natural talents and abilities, and they can use them or not use them however they see fit.

People think it's blasphemous whenever I suggest that I could teach God a few things about parenting, But they fail to see that a God who is silent and absent in a child's life is no father at all. The father who dips his children in lava simply because they did not reciprocate love back to him is a monster, not a loving Heavenly Father.
Having children completely changed my ideas about love and fatherhood. And I want to distance myself as far as I can from the father of the Bible lest my children become yet another victim of this abusive and controlling religion known as Christianity.
