Can parents be blamed for their childrens' crimes, even if these are full-grown adults?

If the nature of the crime is such that it can be traced back to the upbringing of the child then yes, to some extent the parents are arguably responsible. Neglect and indoctrination are good examples.

Was he really as bloodthirsty as history says he was? it's undisputed that he impaled people, but recently i've read that the other stuff, like roasting children alive, cannibalism, cutting women's tits off was german saxon and turkish propaganda, and russian and romanian sources portray him as a just, fair leader.

>Although madly in love with her to the point of suicide, Hitler never once spoke with her,
>Hitler never spoke to Stefanie, always saying he would do so "tomorrow".[2]
>He loathed those who flirted with her, especially the military officers, whom he called "conceited blockheads"
>Hitler disliked dancing and reportedly replied, "Stefanie only dances because she is forced to by society on which she unfortunately depends on. Once Stefanie is my wife, she won't have the slightest desire to dance!"[4]
>When she responded with a smile to his inquiring glance, he was happy and his mood became unlike anything I had ever observed in him. But when Stefanie, as happened just as often, coldly ignored his gaze, he was crushed and ready to destroy himself and the whole world."[3]

Fun fact: Hitler believed she was Jewish (her maiden name was Izak).


Have you ever been cucked so hard that you genocided an entire people?
>>
>>1281294
Sounds like he had Aspergers or something. Hitler in his youth was a pretty sad character overall. To make a living he drew crappy postcards for tourists and mediocre paintings that he sold to Jewish merchants because "They are the only ones willing to take a risk".

I remember reading about some guy seeing a young man in tattered clothes, holding a couple of post cards in his hands, in a cafe. After several hours he had still not sold any. So the guy (a Jew) felt sorry for him and bought some. Hitler immediately went and bought some sweets for it.

Prime /r9k/ material.

On the topic of religion

when and how did the Islamic Golden Age end?
A lot of texts I've read made me infer that Al-Ghazali's anti-rationalism combined with the Mongol sacking of Baghdad were the coup the grâce to Islamic intellectualism.

But what preceded this death? And is my conclusion valid?
26 posts and 6 images submitted.
>>
>>1280930
As far as I know the idea that Al-Ghazali caused the end of the era was first made by an amateur physics professor writing a book on the history of philosophy, but I haven't found any actual argument to support that. It seems unlikely.

What I believe happened was that the madrasa became increasingly standardized, patronage of which steadily replaced patronage of individual thinkers. The later madrasa had no place for advanced non-religious sciences, so these were pushed into the private homes of scholars and enjoyed little protection from angry mobs of Sufi mystics which had begun to appear around the 13th century. Economic decline from environmental changes, European expansion, and nomad raids by Mongols, Bedouin, and Berbers also whittled away at the Arab mercantile middle class that made up the bulk of early Islamic scholars.
>>
>>1280930
Wrongo.

It ended with the decline of the Abbasids in the 900's AD and the coming of the Turkics. The Abbasids tottered into a collection of Islamic Princedoms who were far more busy fighting each other than doing knowledge n shiet nigga.

We might have the the advantage of hindsight, but surely there were at least some people that knew Egypt was a power base for many Muslim dynasties?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crusader_invasions_of_Egypt

Egypt was one of the first territories conquered by the Arabs.

How would've a successful invasion of Egypt changed history? Or the capture of Baghdad.

When you think about it, Jerusalem was a horrible red herring.

What was the legal basis for sentencing Pétain to death? How can signing an armistice be high treason?

Treason
>>
>>1280362
Legally, he was condemned for endowing himself with the full powers that the French Assembly had voted on him, which is an unconstitutional act (I'm foreign to its true specifics, but that was the legal conjecture by which the french government absolved itself of the crimes of Vichy, by asserting that the rise of Vichy was unconstitutional) and he should've known better than to seize this power.

Also, on a symbolic side, him offering an armistice was perceived as traitorous because it doomed the french army to defeat: for example, more half of the french captures by germans befell the army AFTER he first announced by radio that he intended to sign an armistice. The french morale was broken beyond repair by his intention to sign an armistice.

Anyways, that's how I recall it is.

Why don't western Europeans feel any sense of kinship with eastern Europeans? I see the west being really chummy with each other, but they seem to bully the east. And Europe's history is full of the west fucking over the east, especially with that Constantinople thing.

>>
>>1279912
It's difficult to imagine Constantinople falling if they didn't get sacked by their fellow Christians going on a Crusade. That incident weakened Byzantium making them easy prey for Ottomans.

Also, most of Europe didn't really help much as Constantinople was getting sieged by Ottomans.

Obviously the West had its reasons, but its still notable that a lot of the things that the West does in relation to the East tends to fuck the East over, intentional or not.

Christans of /his/, orthodox , catholic and protestants. How do you maintain your faith given all the contradictions and historical evidence that goes against the bible? How do you keep believing that Jesus was the son of god when, historically, he was most likely just an apoclitpic prophet and follower of John the Babtist who preached of end times in which Jews would reclaim their land from the Romans? How do you still believe you have free will despite god knowing your future? How does it make sense that Jesus died for things he already knew we were going to do?

tl;dr how do you keep your faith in light of all the evidence that it's no real.

Well, I'm no longer a Christian due to completely unrelated circumstances, but let me try to address what I can from my upbringing and my current faith.

>How do you maintain your faith given all the contradictions and historical evidence that goes against the bible?

Faith is something stronger than evidence. I have faith in my gods because of what I've experienced and because of how I feel. I imagine the same goes for Christians. Also, if you take their doctrine of a 'fallen earth' as fact, then all evidence is suspect. After all, Satan is the God of this world (2nd Corinthians 4:4), and he's often called the prince of lies. Dunno if there's a scripture reference for that, would be interested to know if any Christfags wanna bring it up.

> How do you keep believing that Jesus was the son of god when, historically, he was most likely just an apoclitpic prophet and follower of John the Babtist who preached of end times in which Jews would reclaim their land from the Romans?

'He was most likely...' this statement is a claim, and the sort which easily allows bias to creep in. Personally, I think he was just a follower of John the Baptist who got lucky, but you do have to wonder why he became so successful after death, when that region was CRAWLING with 'messiahs' at the time. Why were none of the others so successful?

>How do you still believe you have free will despite god knowing your future?

Christianity grappled with this quite a bit, and a shitton of heresies cropped up over it. You oughta look into them, they're super fascinating.

>How does it make sense that Jesus died for things he already knew we were going to do?

A sacrifice that can give itself willingly for things it understands is the purest sacrifice of all.
