The universal adoption of democracy among the west

if plato and aristotle were alive today, they would be surprised at the fact that the modern world has become secular and religious fundamentalism does not dictate the laws anymore. The execution of Socrates seems now but a farcry for democracy in the modern world has allowed for freedom of speech on religious matters. growing further apart?

idk lol

Philip k dick was mesmerized by her breasts first off. Second useing drugs for religion goes back to the Fucking witch doctor days so it's a joke and not Christian

As you treat the least of these, you treat the Lord. Sometimes you see self as lesser or least and don't consider to preserve your own health in a venture toward self-destruction. In this manner you are causing harm to self, harm to God's creation and harm to God. You really shouldn't do it, but we mess up in all manners of ways, so you probably will do it anyway. Once given the opportunity of forethought , however , a smart person who cares for self wouldn't do it, anyway. So it just becomes an exercise in rebellion.

I don't think there's any specific verse in the bible that says don't do drugs, it mentions that drunkards won't go to heaven so it's fair to assume drug addicts would fall under that category.

Every form of government is a kleptocracy

>>1298968
Interesting theory

All governments except monarchies are kleptocracies.

Well even though it's less than 25 years ago, the Iraq War, or at least the invasion of Iraq in 2003 is technically history, so I'm reccing Generation Kill.

I saw an interview with Derrick Jacobi several years ago, When the interviewer asked him about his role in I Claudius, he began to stutter. Also, Patrick Stewart appears as Sejanius, but nobody today realizes its him because he has hair! I agree, its one of the top TV dramas.

How does this compare to the book? I've only read the book and it's sequel......

Literally who fucking cares if it's good from a cinematic standpoint

Just because swords are superior weapons doesn't mean the axe didn't have its uses in combat.

Also, doesn't /his/ hate swords and agree that axes are generally shit at fucking shit up?

>>1298568
No one hates swords because unlike axes they had some actual uses.

>>1298568
No one has ever said that on here.

Axes are shit, live with it

Probably as long as both of these

It'll be the dominant religion in America in a few centuries

I imagine that even with a victory; Lee would still suffer significant casualties and still make way back to confederate lines but victorious with spirits high and the Union again suffering another defeat and reminded that the Confedeacy can invade successfully.

>>1297728
Depending on how decisive the victory is, a Confederate army freely marching around as far north as Pennsylvania would undoubtedly have incited riots in the large cities of the North. A siege of Washington could have had a very real possibility of causing enough unrest within the Union to convince the federal government of pursuing conditional peace terms with the Confederacy.

It was a political war, the south only had to defeat morale

Not only that but the people who were 'massacred' were pelting the redcoats with rocks and daring them to shoot them.

The American tradition of false-flagging to start wars goes back a long ways.

>>1297487
US census says the pop was 2,148,076 in 1770
Current US population is 341,442,019
5 people dead in 1770 is .00023% of the population
50 dead today is .000014%

it was a big deal
