Why do people today still like him? He talked about having a black only state, for a long part of his fame was under the influence of the NOI who killed him later on.
>>1229274
Angry people enjoy him. Didn't he have a slight vindictive message? Like if you compare him to MLK Jr, wasn't Malcolm a little more aggressive?
Also I think Malcolm calmed down before his death. I sincerely hope he did. Can't go around adding fuel to a fire like that forever.

Surprisingly White Nationalists like him, because he spoke a message that resonates with their values; Racial separatism. Don't make the mistake of thinking that past values are all dead and gone, anon. The racial angst of the 1960s is very much alive today.
Our world is dying, there’s nothing to go back to. If our people are to survive, we must make our home here.

If the Aztecs had discovered Madagascar, would they have been able to prevent French colonialism and the European intrusion into the Indian Ocean trade?
>>1228759
But how did they discover Madagascar desu? My own humble theory, which I thought long and clearly of, is that if the Aztecs would seek alliances with the Chinese they would be pretty much instoppable.
>>1228771
>how
Their gods would fly them there.
>alliances with the Chinese
How would that ever happen? They'd have to acknowledge the supremacy of the Chinese Emperor. THey wouldn't want to do that when they could just sacrifice them.
>>1228759
not only that, they would have colonized antarctica
How is it even controversial? Who can seriously claim it wasn't a genocide? It's just baffling.
>>1228610
>How is it even controversial?
It isn't, unless you're Turkish.
>>1228610
No one is saying it didnt happen. If they are they are delusional. Usual arhuements are
1. Ottoman did it none of our bussiness we dont have to say sorry
2. It was just a relocation of people and they happened to die in harsh road conditions. Such things happen in war.
>>1228625
Cenk Ugyhur says it didn't happen (Which is hilarious because he'll also say Americans are responsible for the Holocaust because it was done by "White" people).
Was watching The Witch and came to think about the scene where his gun "fails". Was this a common thing? Was it something he did wrong? Looking at slow motion footage of muskets it does seem like your face is extremely close to the flash.

I shoot a matchlock, probably by the same manufacturer as the one used in the movie.
There's a shield to protect your face from the pan. The pan has only flashed in my face once and it was my own fault. I was testing a new match and it didn't ignite the powder right away. I looked over the shield to see if the match was actually touching the powderand it flashed up and burned off my eyelashes.
The implication in the movie is that the flash was either caused by the satan rabbit with magic or because the father is an incompetent who can't do anything but chop wood.
>>1228543
I'm in a reenactment group that uses matchlock muskets and they misfire all the damn time. Also, the initial ignition is very close to your face, but you tend not to get burnt much
I want the opinions of christians or exchristians in a topic.
Which of the following you believe is true, for former christians, which you think you held as true:
1.Jesus could sin but never sinned
2.Jesus could not sin
3.Jesus sinned
Since sin isn't real, 2.
Jesus was human and everyone sins
>>1228325
>1.Jesus could sin but never sinned
This is true. Satan tempted Jesus in the wilderness but failed to make him sin.
>2.Jesus could not sin
Not true because then Jesus would not be fully human.
>3.Jesus sinned
Not true because Jesus is perfect.
>>1228631
Not Jesus because He is the perfect human.
Why didn't Hitler invade UK?
Why wasn't Hitler a cute hamster?
British air and sea superiority
>>1228251
Many reasons, the most obvious being that it basically wasn't possible without massive casualties and years of fighting. The Allies knew this when planning the invasion of Japan, you try to invade an island belonging to a great power and you're going to have a bad time.
Even though the situation in mainland Europe was grim, the Royal Navy still very much controlled the sea, the British fleet was ridiculously large. The Nazis were reduced to torpedoing merchant vessels and the odd battleship to try to starve the island.
The plan was to gain air superiority in the Battle of Britain but they failed. Even if they managed to smash an opening through the fleet and land troops on the island, what happens then? How do you supply them? How does your first landing wave survive against the homeland defence force and a civilian population that will do everything in their power to shit up your day?
The plan was to starve the population into revolt which never happened because Britain was fully invested in total war and instensive farming/rationing. Not to mention the support from America and the various shipments from other allies and colonies. They also hoped to demoralize the population through terror bombing which didn't work either.
I hate the "keep calm and carry on" meme but that was basically the attitude at the time. Everyone carried on as normal because they weren't thinking about "if" they win, they thought about "when" they win.
As I mentioned above, the exact thing happened with Japan. Their fleet was basically annihilated by the Allies but the invasion was going to be horrific for everyone involved which is why the bomb was absolutely necessary.
Someone please set me straight about Montenegro-Serbian-Yugoslavia relations in regards to a strict timeline, each marker/point only consisting of short phrases please.
I understand Montenegro was part of Serbia, and Serbia was part of Yugoslavia, but the timeline doesn't make sense.
It's like it went back and forth a few times.
Also, so Montenegrins consider themselves Serbian, and so Mont-Serbians consider themselves Yugo, or what?

Has anyone managed to rebut Betrand Russell's "Why I am Not a Christian?"
>There is no reason to suppose that the world had a beginning at all. The idea that things must have a beginning is really due to the poverty of our imagination. Therefore, perhaps, I need not waste any more time upon the argument about the First Cause.
> If you say, as more orthodox theologians do, that in all the laws which God issues he had a reason for giving those laws rather than others -- the reason, of course, being to create the best universe, although you would never think it to look at it -- if there were a reason for the laws which God gave, then God himself was subject to law, and therefore you do not get any advantage by introducing God as an intermediary.
>Do you think that, if you were granted omnipotence and omniscience and millions of years in which to perfect your world, you could produce nothing better than the Ku Klux Klan or the Fascists?
>I come to certain points in which I do not believe that one can grant either the superlative wisdom or the superlative goodness of Christ as depicted in the Gospels; and here I may say that one is not concerned with the historical question. Historically it is quite doubtful whether Christ ever existed at all, and if He did we do not know anything about him, so that I am not concerned with the historical question, which is a very difficult one.

>There is one very serious defect to my mind in Christ's moral character, and that is that He believed in hell. I do not myself feel that any person who is really profoundly humane can believe in everlasting punishment. Christ certainly as depicted in the Gospels did believe in everlasting punishment, and one does find repeatedly a vindictive fury against those people who would not listen to His preaching
>There is the instance of the Gadarene swine, where it certainly was not very kind to the pigs to put the devils into them and make them rush down the hill into the sea. You must remember that He was omnipotent, and He could have made the devils simply go away; but He chose to send them into the pigs.
> That is only an example. There are a great many ways in which, at the present moment, the church, by its insistence upon what it chooses to call morality, inflicts upon all sorts of people undeserved and unnecessary suffering. And of course, as we know, it is in its major part an opponent still of progress and improvement in all the ways that diminish suffering in the world, because it has chosen to label as morality a certain narrow set of rules of conduct which have nothing to do with human happiness; and when you say that this or that ought to be done because it would make for human happiness, they think that has nothing to do with the matter at all. "What has human happiness to do with morals? The object of morals is not to make people happy."
>The whole conception of God is a conception derived from the ancient Oriental despotisms. It is a conception quite unworthy of free men. When you hear people in church debasing themselves and saying that they are miserable sinners, and all the rest of it, it seems contemptible and not worthy of self-respecting human beings.

Why did the Catholic Church abandon so much of her rich traditionalist art and music? I mean, obviously they still have this kind of music in Latin, but why wasn't it translated into English, as with the Orthodox? Instead, English Catholic Liturgical music sounds like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u0iOBOIwQ2o

It depends on where you go. Luckily people like pic related are encouraging a more traditional liturgy. I blame 1960s "spirit of Vatican II" hippie bullshit.

I would like to hear everyone's opinion of this article,Deutschfags in particular
NZ fag here, completely banning a book from production is no more justified than straight up book burning. The fact that they would even consider banning this book means that free speech is on its way out in Germany and perhaps the Europe in general.
>>1227349
> Should this reprint be allowed?
Pretty absurd that it was banned in the first place. Banning of books is a pretty huge affront to freedom of speech.
> What does this say about freedom of speech in Germany?
That comedian being prosecuted in Germany for insulted Erdogan pretty much says all you need to know about freedom of speech in Germany.
