Well I suppose they handled the last one pretty well.
They didn't fall for the "MUH SO TOLERANT AND MULTICULTURAL ISLAMIC CONTROLLED SPAIN" myth.
Are they really Gods chosen people?

People want to be Protestant! That's why we make it illegal not to be :^)

So one theocracy was replaced with another. No! That's not right. One group of foreign inquisitors replaced with another group of local inquisitors. That seems a bit closer. Perhaps they just wanted a different flavor of Kool-Aid.
You didn't pose a question there OP. You merely stated facts.
So Historically, did Anglican reforms aggravate tensions between England and Catholic Stated such as France and Spain during the 16th & 17th centuries?
Or, did Anglican Church supremacy and oppression hasten the departure of immigrants to North America during the same period?
There ANONs, questions...

This is exactly why people in Europe simply got tired of the Christcuck religion and went full secular.
As if people want to keep giving their lives for some made-up shit.
i read a little about it on wikipedia. from what i gather the enlightenment made the french want to have a republic but then this robespierre guy took it too far and killed tons of people and then napoleon took power.
is this the gist of it? what am i missing?

I think these videos will interest you. In less than half an hour you'll know more about the French Revolution than over 99% of people.
The early stages of the French Revolution was a founding moment of the modern world, so it's good you're learning about it.

the first two videos talk about how Louis XVI and his wife were actually good people, and the third video says that the revolution was not popular and there is no excuse for it happening.
is there not more to the story?

Why has Islam failed to modernize unlike Christianity or Judaism?
No usury. Can't have a capitalist economy without usury.
it's not precisely islam that failed to modernize, it's that every secular muslim leader in the middle east has a funny way of getting bumped off by the US.
Religion is intimately connected with the host society.
Arab society is still shit.
Blame constant ethnic bullshit, the Cold War, and the Ottomans.
Let's talk about god and it's powers
It is strongly believed that God is all powerful, that it created world and can control it.
In many religions it is said that god created man in his likeness.
Today or at least in near future we are/will be capable of creating "life" similar to us, which will be much superior to us. Even today A.I research shows that it is much faster, stronger and plainly better that average human.
What if god created us just like this. What if man is much better than it's creator
Who cares.
We don't need technology to do that. Your mother and father should be God to you since they created you from just a tiny cell.
Before the first human were monkeys. So humans as a species/group has a Monkey God.

What are some of the worst choices in history? I'll start.
>US fighting Germany, rather than allying with them
>The entente allowing Germany to exist after world war 1
> let's just declare war on the entire world
Not /his/ but I'm pretty sure there's a series of alternate history fiction written by Harry Turtledove where the US loses 2 civil wars and allies with the German Empire for World War 1 and becomes a superpower with Germany by WW2 IIRC
How come people say Nietzsche is nihilist?
Anyone who is not retarded and actually read one fucking book of his knows he is against it.
>>1278048
Huh
Someone who got it
He sayed himself that his words arent for every ear
Nietzche is a nihilist in the same way that an atheist can still wish there was a god.
>>1278078
Bad example. Every atheist can wish for a god
Why was Russia historically so expansionist?
Once it was conquered, no one else bother to dismantle it due to shitty weather conditions

>Large as fuck territory even for Russia proper (roughly Ivan III's Muscovy)
>No national identity existing per se. It's got a lot in common with Habsburg empire as Austrian identity didn't coherently exist among actual Austrians at all, though it's not as extreme as there
>Collectivism that stems from large but hostile territory with terrible climate
>Places to expand to
>Ideas to legitimize the expansion in their own eyes
>>1281189
It's not that shitty in the Russian core and it's possible to dismantle it easily. Muscovy goes alone, North goes alone, Volga-Kama region goes alone. There, it's done.

>No national identity existing per se. It's got a lot in common with Habsburg empire as Austrian identity didn't coherently exist among actual Austrians at all, though it's not as extreme as there
When did the Russian identity come into being? What did they think of themselves (excluding Poles and other non-"Russia" ethnicities) as?

>Vasily Mikhailovich Blokhin (Russian: Bacи́лий Mихáйлoвич Блoхи́н, 7 January 1895 – 3 February 1955) was a Soviet Russian Major-General who served as the chief executioner of the Stalinist NKVD under the administrations of Genrikh Yagoda, Nikolai Yezhov, and Lavrentiy Beria.
>Hand-picked for the position by Joseph Stalin in 1926, Blokhin led a company of executioners that performed and supervised numerous mass executions during Stalin's reign, mostly during the Great Purge and World War II.[2] He is recorded as having executed tens of thousands of prisoners by his own hand, including his killing of about 7,000 Polish prisoners of war during the Katyn massacre in spring 1940,[2][3] making him the most prolific official executioner and mass murderer in recorded world history.[2][4] Forced into retirement following the death of Stalin, Blokhin died in 1955, officially by suicide.

Obviously the mad Baron. The dude ate his medals to prevent the soviets getting them.
Did he do anything wrong?
Besides for allying with Hitler

His agricultural policies were full retard and served as nothing more than propaganda (and didn't even work in that regard either)
