No one worth listening to thinks this unironically.
Early Christianity started out and mostly spread the Roman empire and the Levant dye to the shape of borders and infrastructure. These locations consist almost only of Europeans and Levantines. Christianity didn't spread to China until a good bit later, America until the exact moment Columbus went over and didn't get any good hold in subsaharan Africa until the Europeans came over.
Christianity (Jesus) is the requirement for entering Heaven.
Knowing this, is it safe to say that God preferred Europeans and Levantines over all other "races" using only the theology of Christianity?
Is there any other explanation?

Christianity is a religion based off of Judaism which has a literal chosen people, so I don't think it's that far off to say the Christian god plays favorites.
Christian here.
Basically, your argument boils down to
>What about people who never heard of Jesus?
The question is often asked, "If faith in Jesus is the only way to have eternal life with God, what about all of the people who have never heard of Jesus?" There are a variety of opinions on the answer and a variety of people who ask the question.
Sometimes this question is asked by people who only want to throw up a smoke-screen and who really don't care about the answer. Such a person needs to understand that on the day of judgment, the issue will not be about the heathen in general, but each person in particular (including the questioner). He will be held accountable for his own personal knowledge of Jesus and what he did with that knowledge.
Others, however, genuinely struggle with the issue, so an answer is important to give. And to properly answer the question, a number of key biblical areas need to be examined.
The first area concerns the nature of God. The Bible says that God is a good and righteous God who will deal rightly with all people: "Let the rivers clap their hands; let the hills sing for joy together before the LORD, for he comes to judge the earth. He will judge the world with righteousness, and the peoples with equity" (Psalm 98:8-9). The Scriptures also say He is all-powerful, so He has the ability to reach and save everyone He desires: "Our God is in the heavens; he does all that he pleases" (Psalm 115:3). The Bible also records that God is all-knowing, so the situation and whereabouts of every person is known to Him: "You know when I sit down and when I rise up; you discern my thoughts from afar" (Psalm 139:2).
>>933151
The second area needing review is what the Bible says about the knowledge every person has about God. Even if a person has not been introduced to the name of Jesus, the Bible says he intuitively knows about God from creation, according to the Old Testament: "The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork. Day to day pours out speech, and night to night reveals knowledge. There is no speech, nor are there words, whose voice is not heard. Their voice goes out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world" (Psalm 19:1–4).
The New Testament specifically says that people know about God, but reject Him: "For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth. For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse" (Romans 1:18-20). The word "excuse" in the Greek is apologia, which means "defense." No one will have a right to stand before God and claim ignorance of His existence.
A third topic needing discussion to answer the question concerns the state of all humanity – all people everywhere are lost and need God's grace and deliverance from their sin. The Bible says, "None is righteous, no, not one; no one understands; no one seeks for God" (Romans 3:10-11). Everyone from birth sins against God because all have a built-in law of failure: "Among them we too all formerly lived in the lusts of our flesh, indulging the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest" (Ephesians 2:3 NASB, emphasis added).
No romanticist kitsch edition.

Love this one.
Were states a mistake?
They made sense at the time.
Now they are becoming more and more irrelevant, interestingly.
better than a patchwork of warlords
The German one was.
HRE for life!
>Civil War
>it was about slavery. I swear!
>History board
>It's not /pol/ with dates, i swear!
>>932603
I dont go to /pol/
>>932601
Even if it wasn't 'about' slavery, slavery is what led to it. Take slavery out of the equation completely and tell me the Civil War would have still happened. The fact that slavery was legal in every single seceding state and the fact blacks were treated like labor animals even after slavery ended was just a fucking coincidence?
Seriously, what reason to people have to have to distance the Confeds and slavery?
>"I'm not racist, but the Confederacy should have won"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ostsiedlung
The Wikipedia article is so confusing. It's like it's an pseudo-historical term invented by 19th century Nationalists, with no relevance at all towards historical sources. Can someone tell me about it briefly? Is there any decent English-language book with this topic?
tldr Eastern Europe got rekt by Mongols and Turks so the local kings invited German settlers to colonize depopulated areas.
>>932531
The the German wasted everything in two wars.

It began long before Mongols

>europe didn't conquer the world because of the industrial revolution
Go to bed, Pablo.

What does this map show, and at what date?
Wasn't it the fact that Europe conquered the world that sparked the Industrial revolution?
Is the whole idea of spooks a spook?
If you consider spooks evil or something then I guess it would be pretty spooky.

Can you define what is a spook or are definitions a spook as well?

How long did it take the Spaniards to realize they weren't in India?

Toilets tipped them off real quick
Probably when the portuguese went around Africa and didn't find them there

Like the second or third trip.
Why did it fail? Was it too harsh for Germany?
It failed because they didn't predict Germany building up a new Reich during an upcoming depression. No one was able to enforce it.
>>931723
Surely it's the cause of the Nazi's rise then?
>>931736
Both sides fucked up, people predicted this shit would fuck up the German economy very badly and it did fuck up the German economy very badly and people were mad as hell

Has converting to Islam ever been acceptable in Western society? It seems it was pretty frowned upon in the pre-20th century era, and then in the pre-9/11 era it had negative connotations with groups like the nation of Islam, and then after 9/11 it became even more suspicious for a Westerner to convert. Was this always the case? Are there any examples of prominent Europeans who converted to the faith of Mohammad?
What was Islam like before Wahhabism?
>tfw no Muslim Europe
Imagine how much greater mankind could have been if near Asia and the Occident had been united.
>>931582
Adolf Hitler admired Islam, and many people in the 1800s had a romantic view of it. But otherwise no. The reason Islam never really "took off" in the West, is because we have a very long history of conflict that continues into the present day.
