This is true of most western philosophers -- masters of wit and rhetoric, but they offer little substance beyond common sensical notions.

To truly tap into wisdom, you must look towards the East.

>How do Christians go about convincing Jews that Jesus is the messiah...

?

THE "MESSIAH" OF THE JEWS IS THE DAJJAL/ANTICHRIST; JESUS IS THE "MESSIAH" OF CHRISTIANS, AND OF MOHAMMEDANS.

Interesting question. What is it about Jesus that the Jews think make him incompatible with their interpretation of the teachings of "G-d".

>>3216926
Because the Jewish religion is based around rejecting Christ. Jews that accepted Christ in the early days of the religion are called Christians.

They didn't?

Manchuria had some sort of weird status as still being Chinese territory under Russian Hegemony, who were building railroads all over the place.

The formal acquisition by Russia of Qing territory was Vladivostok.

>>3216522
Longstanding Russian interest in the Amur region, plus opportunism following China's weakness around the same time of the Opium War. That's just me speaking in ignorance from the Wikipedia page though. If anyone has details beyond wiki, I'd love to know more.

>>3216549
The treaty of Aigun gave co-dominium over large parts of the Amur region (maybe not "Manchuria" proper), but they got full posession of it just a few years later, and got the maritime region at the Conference of Beijing in 1860.

its the humanities part that ruins it.

If the 25-year rule was strictly enforced, it'd be fine.

They feared the Hun warrior

How could the Turk, steppeniggers from Siberia, oppress and rule over millions of Anatolians, Greeks, Persians and Egyptians?

or alternatively

How could the Proto-Indo-Europeans, steppeniggers from Siberia, oppress and rule over millions of Mesopotamians, Dravidians, Neolithic Farmers and Indigenous European Hunter Gatherers?

someone being a "polymath" arguably displays elements of mania and an unbalanced personality, while likely having unusual social relationships. I don't think they're all necessarily unhappy but by virtue of it being considered quite outside of the norm, even among "gifted" individuals, it's likely to come with a lot of odd behavioral traits.

I do find that a lot of my own friends and acquittances that pursued careers in academia have really big egos and are surprisingly focused on social attention more so than the subjects they work in. I'm not calling them shallow, just that they do care quite a bit about how people perceive them to an extent they're almost constantly unhappy. Someone diving into multiple subjects, and this is purely my opinion, is probably quite like this and worse

I sense jealousy in this post.

>it's likely to come with a lot of odd behavioral traits.
Now that I will concede. Polymaths are incredibly rare, even among geniuses, but I really don't see why that should mean they should have to be isolated. Of course, I also see why they couldn't find much common ground with other humans.

>Someone diving into multiple subjects, and this is purely my opinion, is probably quite like this and worse
This is wrong. Single-field focusers are attention whores because they're plebs. Even the "experts" are typically morons. Polymaths just don't have much time outside of their pursuits for attention whoring.
