People back then had extended family networks they could rely on. Divorce, debt, and media-approved selfishness have destroyed extended family networks.

Hey, /his/ whats a good book about the whole Middle Ages? I want something written with a more academic perception of that time period. I've seen so far lots of books about the theme but they all are like "muh dark ages", "muh european barbarians" and "the muslims were the good guys". I'd like something more "mature" perhaps.

The REAL POLITICALLY INCORRECT History if the Crusades by Jack t. Reese
Visigothic Spain was an Oasis by Pedro Looses

I'm kidding
Some anon posted a bunch of annotated bibliographies that would appeal to your need for more mature narratives, whatever you mean by that:
http://pastebin.com/u/jonstond2/1

There isn't one singular pastebin on the middle ages, so you'll have to look through it
>>
So you're looking for a book that fits your biases?

If a lot of books are pointing out that Europe was in a large decline and slump after the fall of the Roman Empire, and the Muslim Empires were prosperous, then you know what that means? That means Europe was in a large decline and slump and the Muslims were prosperous.

Stop trying to find propaganda books. Europe is stable now and the Middle East is war torn. You don't need to make up fake history to stroke your ego.

Nice, thanks. I'll look into the recs in that link

Why do fundamentalist protestants almost always start to develop conspiracy theories about the pope or other Catholics running the world?
Everyone else just goes with the Jews or Freemasons running things when they actually do hold conspiracy theories.

the Eternal Butthurt
>>
Because fundamentalist prots love nothing more than sucking Jew cock and unconditionally supporting Israel because 'muh chosun peepul'
>>
Because according to extreme Protestants the Catholic Church is the devils church and so have unlimited power but no souls, and thus could run everything and nothing at the same time
But it's probably for the same reason why Jews are blamed for problems, Jesuit education made small sects of Catholics smart these people then rise to high places, they teach their children and reccomened them so they get in high places,
Also same thing with racism when you complain about a majority it's fine

Serious question to all Christians here: how can you remain confident in your faith after learning everything about the historical context from which your religion comes from?

meaning: Judaism was initially a polytheistic religion of Canaanite origin that borrowed heavily from Phoenician and Mesopotamian myths. Judaism only began to center around monotheistic YHWH worship when the Jews were exiled by the Babylonians (at which point the entire Jewish religion went through a major paradigm shift from there being multiple gods, to a select pantheon of high-gods, to YHWH being the god of the Hebrews, until eventually YHWH was considered the only god to exist at all by 500 BC) mostly as a result of the teachings of the prophets Isaiah and Hosea until much late it was co-opted by a heresy lead by that Jesus fellow - resulting in a religion that nobody truly took seriously until it latched onto the Roman Empire and used the extensive empire-wide trade networks (and the empire's massive slave population who were very susceptible to its teachings) to quickly spread throughout almost all of Europe within about a century.

Given all of this historical context, how do you still hold onto your faith and not just resign into Deism if not Atheism? Doesn't this kind of knowledge just de-mystify the entire religion in showing just how much - even central tenets such as monotheism - were ultimately the result of the hand of men rather than gods?

What is the issue?
>the Canaanite High God, El, gets merged with the neighboring thunder god Yaweh
>some people insist Israel must only worship Yaweh, who is superior to the other Gods
>Babylonian exile, Israel gets some modesty, prophets say Yaweh is not the angry tribal god their ancestors worshipped, but the one and only God to ever exist and actually a nice fellow who did choose Israel but will punish it too if it fucks up
>around 30CE, the Cult of the Martyr believes that Jesus was a man of divine nature and that his teachings are the one and only God's will, no more YHWH, no more El, just the nameless Father and his son (as in, appointed spokesperson) Jesus
>this later evolves into the concept of the Trinity, with the Father being the great one who decides and judges, Jesus being the messenger who said everything there was to be said about God's will, the Holy Spirit being the cable linking humans to God, you could call it Wisdom, YHWH, whatever. All three being independant yet being God, showcasing God as something we cannot understand.

I don't see what the issue is, here. Christianity already aknowledges that our vision of God has always changed over time.

Even within the Bible, it goes from
>El the great god who talks to Abraham like a friend
to
>YHWH the angry tribal god leading the Israelites out of Egypt and into Canaanite territory
to
>YHWH the one and only God to ever exist who wrecked Israel's shit in because he is a just God and doesn't care about rituals and sacrifices if his moral will isn't even applied
to
>The God made human who rescues humanity in an act of self-sacrifice
and the Trinity isn't even written in the Bible and is a doctrine that was made later.
