Is the reason for India's current situation due to 200 odd years of British colonialism + 50 something years of Nehruistic socialism? The Jewel in the crown isn't what it used to be.

yes. Its much better now.

The elephant in India's room is the giant population boom. If India had half the number of people it currently has, it would be a far better country economically and socially.
Basically we need a lot of bloodletting or sterilization of people.

He high fives him and says "oh, you're a hypocrite commie like me, with my Rolex and my Coke!".

A while back I saw someone mention that the ability to deploy infantry during the middle ages was limited according to the season due to the peasant soldier's need to attend to their farms.

I understand that this would keep the peasant occupied from the early spring to at least late summer. So would I be right in inferencing that most medieval war (at least ideally) took place in the fall and early winter?

If this is not the case, could someone explain what might have been meant?

At least most places in Europe, the main crop would have been wheat, and I believe the wheat harvest is usually in autumn, not late summer.

Plus, the whole "peasant conscript armies" is about 85% meme; while there was enormous variation, smaller groups of professional or semi-professional mercenary forces really were the norm for a lot of the time, and those guys aren't going to be impeded by the planting and harvest schedule.

IIRC, (and I haven't done a lot of reading, so I could be dead wrong on this) most medieval warfare took place from early summer to mid-fall, but that more had to do with the weather than anything else.
>>
>>1128304
Campaigns in europe generally took place in the spring and summer during good weather and before the harvest in September.

However attacking armies might wait until after their own harvest so they can use part-time soldiers or time their attack to coincide with the enemy's harvest.

King Harold's fyrdmen is a good example of this.

Who is the greatest theologian of all time? If all the great theologians had a debate, who would win, judging only on their theological/philosophical points, exposition, persuasiveness of their character etc.?

2 rules: We're talking theologians, not philosophers. Also, the person must have actually written something. So you can't say Jesus or Buddha, though their followers are fair game

Also, dubious writings (Like Lao Tzu's writings, or certain letters by Saint Paul) will be considered genuine as long as the far majority of their historical followers considered them genuine. For example, Paul's pastoral epistles are acceptable, apocalypse of Paul is not.

So apparently there's a big difference between master and slave morality (slave morality victimise themselves, everyone are equal, etc).

But when you come to think about it, it doesn't matter. Both of the moralities are just used by people to support their own interests. I don't want to go full /pol/, but for example, feminism tends to be a slave morality, but that's only because it's serves their interests. And it's the reason why white heterosexual fascist movements are master moralities because it serves their own interest.


TL;DR: there's not a big difference, it's basically just acting in your own self interest

Of course all morality is to promote their own interests dumb-ass. That's Nietzsche's point. Everything is Will to Power.

The Master has real power so he follows the Master Morality which gives him the maximum potential to use his power for his own benefit: that which harms him is bad and that which helps him is good. Using his immense power and pragmetic approach to life the Master gets many subjects.

The Slave has no power and is subserviant to the Master. So he follows a morality of subversion, he avoids being assimilated into the Master's power structure by inverting and doing the opposite of the Master, and he hopes to force the Master to surrender by making the Master think his power is "evil".
>>
>>1130626
And understanding the Will to Power will cause one to valorize strength (master morality), rather than weakness (slave morality). Nietzsche admits that it was in the self interests of the weak to valorize themselves, but he points out that in doing so, they ignore reality--life affirms strength. It's an almost Aristotelian observation of his. OP is only focusing on the effect of morality on the individual, but Nietzsche was making a larger statement about the reality of the human condition, and nature more broadly. He could not accept the denial of nature as the basis for a moral system.
>>
Wasn't Nietzsche's point to transcend both anyway?

>>1130650
I really don't see how that can be the case. Life does indeed affirm strength, but there is undeniably a strength to be had in numbers, and it isn't by shaming that slaves make masters step down.

I'm interested in the history of atheism.

Why didn't atheism gain momentum earlier than the 20th century? Why didn't the free thinkers of the middle ages or the dark ages already liberate themselves from religious oppression? Surely back in that time there also used to be a lot of guys who knew they didn't need a sky daddy. So what exactly was holding back science from winning over superstition for almost two millennia?

Religion no longer offers a valid explanation for the origin and state of the world, the Earth and all the species on it, whilst science does. There is simply no evidence for the existence of any deities, much less those of organized religions, so there is no reason to believe in a god.

let's face it, Darwin's theory of evolution is nothing more than a justification of mid-victorian social structure.
>muh animals are adaptive machines
>muh malthusianism in animal populations

Here's Engels' statement on the matter:
>The whole Darwinist teaching of the struggle for existence is simply transference from society to living nature of Hobbes' doctrine of 'bellum omnium contra omnes' [everyone against everyone else] and of the bourgeois-economic doctrine of competition toegether with Malthus' theory of population. When this conjurors' trick has been performed,... the same theories are transferred back again from organic nature into history and it is now claimed that their validity as eternal laws of human society has been proved.
