Do new atheists exist? how do they differ from old/classical atheists?

Look at all those Jews promoting a Jewish religion against a Christian one.

New atheism is bullshit btw.
>>
>>1176419
"New Atheists" tend to just be real hardline logical positivists, its not a new philosophy its just very popular among modern Atheists.

Athiests like Nietzsche had a very different worldview
>>
>>1176432
this. Apart from Dawkins everyone in that pic looks jewish af. Don't take me wrong, I am not anti-semenitic, but I don't trust Jews nonetheless

Would the Actus Purus vs. essence-energies conceptions of the Catholics vs. Orthodox, need to be reconciled in order for the Church to be unified? Or does the Catholic Church okay essence-energies now in Eastern Rite?

I'm no Catholic, but essence-energies sound heterodox as fuck, like schismatic-tier for real dawg.
>>
>>1179996
Why? It's Patristic. It simply means God as transcendent vs. God as immanent.
>>
>>1179806
Church needs to be unified in Spirit not in formal manners - that's the Catholic approach.

Dogmatic wise Orthodoxy will never change - even the canons are somewhat fixed but really flexible in the same time.

It was an almost nonstop advance that was over in 6 weeks. If you've ever seen the photos by German soldiers during early Barbrossa its literally just roadside with the occasional destroyed tank.

"Fall of 1940"? If anything, National Socialist France was an exaltation.

Everyone likes making fun of nihilists but can you actually refute them?

>>1180775
If there is no meaning to anything, in a very strong sense, then if you are right, it doesn’t matter. There is no right or wrong anyway. But if you are wrong, then there are consequences to your being wrong, because there is some sort of meaning in the world, that you are failing to do justice to. So it would be sensible to not care about anyone who is a committed nihilist, philosophically, because if he is right, it is nothing to us (in the same way everything is nothing); but if he is wrong, well, there were more promising positions we could engage with anyway, and we only have a finite amount of time to do this in.
>>
>>1180788
Let me get this right.
What you're basically saying is "if he's wrong we're right but if he's right we're wrong but then it wouldnt matter anyway lol", and calling it an argument?
>>
>>1180803
by definition it would not matter. if you want to be right for the sake of understanding and controlling the world, you'd find the argument compelling. if you prefer to assume things that are thoroughly incapable of helping you so you can be a smug faggot about your perceived superiority (but don't actually think there is value in being a smug faggot) then you can be a nihilist.

I always get the thoughts that maybe its has way more to it and that even thought it might not look completely logic right now it just sounds like it can't be fabricated and the more I read the it makes me think that it might be true.And no being Christian doesn't make me feel better becaues I know that I will end in hell while with Atheism I couldn't give a flying fuck about anything.

Obviously one can't just take over the world via military strength like in the old days. But in today's times, could one still aspire to bid for world domination? Is this dream still possible to achieve?

I think building a civil service and administrative structure on that scale is like trying to build a million story skyscraper.

Eventually, things are just going to buckle, because no material works on that scale.

Now, if you just wanted to hurt a bunch of people, fuck bitches, and look cool, there are plenty of opportunities.

I think you made a mistake with your map. You meant to post the Roman Empire but instead you posted the Russian Empire.

What exactly would make the Russian Empire qualify as "Greatest" in your mind, OP?
>>
>>1181462
>Roman Empire
I think you mispelled Britain

Is it realistic to believe it might ever come back? Some believe Yeltsin nearly restored the Romanovs.

> On April 30, 2008, Russian forensic scientists announced that DNA testing proves that the remains belong to the Tsarevich Alexei and his sister Anastasia. DNA information, made public in July 2008, that has been obtained from Yekaterinburg and repeatedly subject to independent testing by laboratories such as the University of Massachusetts Medical School, USA, and reveals that the final two missing Romanov remains are indeed authentic and that the entire Romanov family housed in the Ipatiev House, Yekaterinburg were executed in the early hours of 17 July 1918. In March 2009, results of the DNA testing were published, confirming that the two bodies discovered in 2007 were those of Tsarevich Alexei and Anastasia.

Research on mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) was conducted in the American AFDIL and in European GMI laboratories. In comparison with the previous analyses mtDNA in the area of Aleksandra Fyodorovna, positions 16519C, 524.1A and 524.2C were added. The mtDNA of Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, a great-nephew of the last Tsarina, was used by forensic scientists to identify her body and those of her children.[8] Some experts suggest analysis of other relatives in the female line, in particular of the Spanish Queen Sofia or her brother, the deposed King Constantine II of Greece.[9]

Not an expert, but I guess they would have to look for some noble in european houses

I can't for the life of me understand the difference between Calvinist beliefs and Lutheran beliefs. I get Martin Luther's worldly issues and most of his theological disagreements with Catholics. But I simply can't understand what Calvin was all about.

What I am saying is that I've read the words and I simply cannot grasp what they are conveying. Can someone give me an apples-and-oranges explanation of what Calvinism is?

everyone is born into mortal sin and depravity and only calvinists are predestined for salvation
>>
>>1181379
predestination. also if I remember correctly Luther took communion as the literal body of christ while Calvin did not
>>
>>1181379
Double predestination is the big one, also subordination of the sacraments to the Word on the part of Calvin. Also their methods were as different as could be: Calvin was systematic to the core while Luther is more difficult to pin down on some things.

>>1181435
Luther did believe in the Real Presence, he just didn't accept transubstantiation.

I got kind of bored with the knight's tale, but when I decided to skip it I was delighted to find that the other tales were a lot shorter and actually funny. Good read.

To anyone who's planning on reading it for the first time in the original middle English, I recommend using the comic book version as a companion text.
