You can see Landsknechts in some paintings wearing pretty similar set-ups of those "apostoles"

>>1130394
Before paper cartridges were invented you had what you see in your picture, which was called the 12 Apostles as there were usually 12. Each one contained a measured amount of powder for one shot, and would be poured into the musket. A measured amount was needed for the musket to perform as expected.

Before even that a soldier may just have a single flask full of powder, and he would pour from that the amount he thought correct. It often wasn't correct, which led to the developed of the 12 Apostles. That eventually led to individual paper cartridges.

Oh and the satchel is full of the smaller paper cartridges, it was a lot more convenient and easier to carry than a bandoleer across your chest.

You simply mean "people that did nothing" then.

Sorbians were assimilated.

Many of them were high ranked nazis.

>>1130163
Hitler thought they were just cosplaying Germans. So he tried to stop them from cosplaying instead of murdering them all. So pretty well relatively speaking.

Collar says kiddie toucher.

The amount of mental gymnastics people will go through to keep a bronze age belief system relevant to modern-day life is amazing.

Sounds awfully degenerate desu.

anachronisms and revisions in opera should be fucking banned

just follow the original idea the author had ffs

I think that restaged/modernized versions which deviate from the original are inevitable but companies really need to make sure that the promotional material lets people know they aren't seeing the classic version. To use the Kudelka example again, at least in the recent stagings the NBC has done, they don't tell people that this version contains gang rape and darker thematic elements (the court scene with the princesses is transformed into the princesses showing off for the prince into a creepy almost auction-like scene where they're inspected like meat) and isn't an ordinary Swan Lake. If you want to play with Swan Lake or another classic piece, have fun, but make sure you promote that.

I also think that restaging/altering these classic pieces only truly works if you go full hog. Matthew Bourne's Sleeping Beauty is an example of this. It's not everyone's cup of tea, but when he decided to make his own version of Sleeping Beauty, he really did it.

No object willed itself into existence but subsists in web of mutually reinforcing interrelationships

>>1125865
More, all objects/phenomenas do not have a core essence for its existence. The existence of objects, thus, depend purely on its relation to other objects.
Without core essences, objects are allowed to change its shape/form/name/etc and this allows objects to exist. Yet, at the same time, they cannot exist permanently as they are without an eternal essence.

>Would persia be better today if it was Zoroastrian rather than Muslim?

Yes. Why? Because then it wouldn't be Muslim

Better? I don't know. I hate Islam as much as the next guy, but the Shah was very much pro-Western and the photos from that time show a tendency towards Western-style degeneracy. So what is better?

>>1127574
Western styles are not degenerate, they are the highest culture. Islam is degenerate, as is most conservatism.

You had philosophy in high school?
Damn.

>>1127648
This honestly
My high school had "accelerated" English studies but never a real philosophy class

>>1124466
- No Trinity.
- no religious symbols. Cross is an idol worshipped by others. Jesus died on "torture stake" NOT cross.
- Originally Russell was a Zionist but realized an evangelical Christian organization would be more effective.
- Not strict creationists any more. It's weird. They accept 13 billion year age but still believe in Adam / Eve & universal flood.
- I was raised to believe Armageddon would come in 1975. Miserable to know you will die before you graduate high school. They have since stopped giving a date.
- no blood transfusions.
- Anti masturbation. No pre marital sex.
- anti feminist to an extreme. Young girls dressing like Satan's harlots must be avoided. Anal about dress code.
- House to house & door to door my friend.
- American flag is an idol. No pledge.
- no military service
- no Christmas or other holidays. Being a kid sucks. Your friends have fun but you can't even really be their friends.
- No "communion". Only the 144,000 can partake and then only on Passover.
- Paranoid about individual Bible study. You must digest only the current programmed lessons.
- Really bad Bible translation, which is published in a zillion languages. They are one of the largest publishing organizations on the planet.

I am tired, have to stop and wish you luck.

>>1124466
Also...
Doctrine had change radically since the early days of Russell then Rutherford. The older books (late 19th to mid 20th cent) could be really Zionist. They chilled out some once Israel became a state.
- no birthdays either.

>Jesus died on "torture stake" NOT cross.
That’s just a translation issue, the original Greek word (stauros) didn’t specifically mean a cross but any sort of stake, though by tradition people assume this particular stake was a cross.

ohhhhh stop it

The quran is a lie. Muhammad (His blood be upon him) was tricked by another demon. That's why islam is the cult of barbarians even in this age which should be more genteel. They are are as bad as sodomites. They are worse.

Same religion. Islam is just the purification of what Saul tried to destroy.

It's weird how as a culture they were like ye fairplay, that seems moral.

It was more about dominance/submissiveness. Like a Roman could pound away at man ass to his heart's content but if he ate a woman out he was a fairy faggot
