Hi /his/, this is my first time posting here. Today I was discussing the topic of immortality with some friends of mine, and someone came up with the question: if you were given the chance, would you like to live forever in a young body, with the possibility of rejecting your immortality at any time? We pretty much all agreed it'd be nice to extend one's own lifespan indefinetely, but living forever would eventually become a curse, especially after all your beloved ones died.
So, what would you do if you were given that chance?

All human beings live forever, in one of two eternal destinations, and all human beings pick the one they end up in.

Yes, many people spend their entire lives preparing themselves for their death. If can choose when that is, you can be certain you are ready.

Why would any of us ever want to be a 40 millennium old virgin?

No only a small percentage of land owners had slaves at all, ~4% and almost all were in the south. Slaves were metaphorically high end farming equipment, why mistreat it?
>>
>>852600
yeah I mean basically yes.
Occasionally some slave owners would be exceptionally kind but then again some would be exceptionally sadistic. Most were just bad.

supposedly before the inquisition there was a lot of inconstant and haphazard local prosecution. Or mobs would just kill any "heretics"

Not gonna defend the other things it did, but it was surprisingly little into witch hunting.

Were mercenary armies a thing?
Did medieval/renaissance nations who were at war send armies of mercenaries at other nations' mercenaries, or were paid fighters mostly used as bodyguards/rebellion-crushers while the citizens of the state in question were the ones involved in actual country-on-country combat?

I don't think it was as common in the medieval era, but by the renaissance it was standard procedure to bolster your army with mercenaries.

Even if there was a meaning to life and the universe, Wouldn't that meaning be meaningless?
At the most fundamental level everything will always be meaningless.

Was Judas' betrayal necessary to fulfill scripture, or was Jesus' crucifixion and death inevitable and someone would have eventually betrayed him and Judas just jump-started things?
Seems kind of unfair if Judas is basically born to be damned.

He chose to kill himself. Had he not and just gone into exile or something, he could've seen the Resurrection (Jesus manifested in the middle of a room so he could probably do that to a guy in a cave or something), begged for forgiveness, gotten it and become a holy Saint.
But again, he chose to kill himself.

> People are too stupid and greedy to stay true to the ideals of any political system for more than a few years.
> 95% of people are too uninformed to have a coherent opinion about any kind of public policy. Sexy Jane the Health Sciences major should not have a say in international diplomacy.
> The other 5% of people are only informed in certain areas and may have a coherent opinion on one or two aspects of public policy at most.
> The success of a group is primarily determined by the ability of the ruler to enforce his ideology, and is not very dependent the actual ideology itself.
> The most pure form of government is traditional centralized, authoritarian systems like oligarchy or theocracy, because those are the ones that best enable a ruler to enforce his ideology.
Other types of government will either be overthrown or degenerate into something that is in effect centralized and authoritarian.
Are these stupid opinions? Is there a name for them?
