>What is reincarnation

>>1145289
reincarnation is to get purified and unite with..umm...the big omnipresent God behind everything. If you are a good little christian you get karmic brownie point. So, it\s not checkmate.

Only if it is constitutionally incapable of feeling negative emotions. Or maybe if it has a high positive/negative emotion balance.

No.

Let me counter - is it ethical to give birth to any consciousness? What distinguishes an AI that mimics a baby and an actual baby?

Split off from mainstream Shia Islam in order to set up their own little independent state, realised they'd be destroyed by the powerful Islamic empires next to them so turned to assassination of political leaders in order to make themselves seem less viable for conquering.

Eventually killed a bunch of crusaders as well and slipped into Western cultural consciousness. They show up regularly in Renaissance era work, but kinda fell out of style until some writer at Ubisoft, glad he got a job with his useless BA in History, managed to drag them into the light again.

Having 2 colonies doesn't count as Empire.

>>1144612
3 colonies actually.

>>1144612
Actually you could think of Unification Period italy as the Empire of Sardinia-Piedmont in some ways.

The Italian States - some of them at least- are quite independent that some of them were becoming national movements. Venice to name one.

The Renaissance can be given much credit for the lack of convictions experienced in Italy. During the Renaissance, lasting from the late 1300s until 1600, Italy embraced a climate of cultural and social change as Renaissance thinkers brought back and relied upon the literary, scientific, and philosophical works of ancient Greece and Rome. [15] The Renaissance began in Florence and as it spread rapidly throughout the Italian city-states, humanism became the most defining intellectual movement. Humanism was based on the glorification of the individual and Renaissance thinkers shifted away from the collective conscious, centering the world on human beings. Based on the idea that humans are perfectly rational and the ultimate judges in all issues, humanism emphasized the potential of the human mind, ushering in an environment of questioning and learning that encouraged individuals to investigate and define the laws of nature and the physical world.[16] Renaissance scholars challenged the accepted intellectual views and approaches to philosophy, medicine, law and science of the Middle Ages and universities became hubs for innovative research in these fields.[17] While many Renaissance thinkers clashed with religious authorities, many prominent Church figures in Italy embraced the ideas of humanism and Church leaders of prosperous Italian cities grew more interested in politics than religion. Unlike other places in Europe where individuals were quick to accept the beliefs of the Church, this cultural shift towards the individual mind as the center of the universe empowered Italians to gain truths through looking inward, rather than turning to the Church. While Catholic religion remained important to every day life in Italy, the Renaissance in many ways ushered in a feeling of secularism through its glorification of intellectual achievement.

The intellectual innovations of the Renaissance certainly set Italy apart from other European nations and caused Italian cities to respond differently as ideas of the cumulative concept of witchcraft began to spread. Demonological sources spread the cumulative concept of witchcraft amongst the elites during the 1400s. While the Renaissance began in the fourteenth century, it truly took hold of the Italian city-states during the 1400s. Therefore, the cumulative concept of the witch and the demonic pact came to Italy at the height of the humanist intellectualism. In other areas of Europe, elites took the concept of the demonic pact as truth, however, Renaissance thinkers responded with criticisms and counter-arguments, often disproving the reality of witchcraft. During the 1400s, a large, diverse front of “theologians, philosophers, physicians, and jurists—many coming from Italian states—never ceased urging caution and voicing doubts, if not outright disbelief, in matters relating to witchcraft.”[18] Many intellectuals challenged the possibility of witchcraft relying on ancient theological texts. These skeptics argued that witchcraft, based on the demonic pact was virtually impossible based on the very nature of the Devil.

Lorenzo de’ Medici, asserted “that demons did not have any physical body, and therefore were unable to have any material contact with humans.”[20] Furthermore, these intellectuals believed that the devil had great delusory skills and made many women have visions or dreams that they were actually witches. Witches’ images occurred only because of their weak mind that was easily upset by the Devil’s powers.[21] Many of these skeptics relied upon ancient folk sources to show how these delusions were exactly like those of the old followers of Diana. [22] Through this reference, they undermined the reality of sabbat, describing it as a mere mental vision. In humanist fashion, many argued that based on his great, unwavering love of humankind, God would never “give the devil free reign so as to enable the witches to carry out such nefarious crimes.”[23] While many Italian Church authorities had steadfast beliefs in the threat of witchcraft or other types of bad magic that relied upon the powers of the Devil, they were challenged by this intellectual movement that considered the witches’ confessions harmless dreams.[24]

What can you tell me of Mesopotamia then?

Only because the burbs were preplanned. In Europe suburbs get created by a large city annexing neighboring villages.

>what the average eqyptians reaction would've been to it.
It was pretty unpopular because it was a "revolution from above" without any support from neither the priesthood nor the people since Akhenaten had temples be closed and basically tried to eradicate any other forms of worship

Also is Atenism really "pure" monotheism or just monolatry?

> Atenism really "pure" monotheism or just monolatry

It's hard to know for sure. Apparently during the end of his reign he banned even the use of the Sun or "Aten" as a symbol for Aten and used only the phonetic spelling so as to not re-enforce the idea that Aten was like the old egyptian gods but instead a universal presence.

We may never know though a lot of the original Atenist information was either destroyed or never existed.
