No

No, theres fuel and natural resources there, as well as great shipping options.

Problem is indians and settlers had beef going back to the 1600s before the u.s. even existed. They wouldnt peacefully coexist long enough for the global cuckings of the post ww2 era.

>>713302

I doubt it. While I've hardly studied the matter, two things strike me as being very important.

Where the Europeans are concerned, Africa is a very disease-ridden, dangerous place, which prevented large scale immigration to the various African colonies.

Furthermore, the various African political entities were considerably more advanced than the Amerindians. AFAIK, the Africans had things like ironworking, wheras the Amerindians didn't until they came into contact with the Europeans. Granted, neither of them had the technology to match the Europeans, but the Amerindians were considerably behind the Africans from point of contact.

Both of which make it far easier to subdue and eventually settle, should the incentives exist.

Virtuous* sorry

Its defining is tailored to egoism. A spook as any idea you put above the self. But you could just say it's any idea you put above the family! But, you say, the family itself is a spook! But that's based entirely on you saying a spook is any idea you put above the self. You're begging the question with your definition.

Really the problem is that stirner didn't realize the self is a spook

It's literally all spooks. Everything. There is no escape.

Nothing just the Catholics getting rekt

The fat guy in the pic got killed.

Up to 40% of the people living in the German states died.

>>712099
So, that point packing screeching thing....is it real?

>>712109
I'm gonna assume you're referring to spreading.

Q: Should research scientists be responsible for their inventions?

Everyone else: No.
Me: Yes. Scientists don't become immune from liability by their vocation.

Q: Should a doctor hired by a pro sport team make the call on whether or not a player can play?

Everyone else: Yes.
Me: No. Get 3 doctors, player, team, and neutral.

I think those were worth $500.

>more net stimulus than 6 people
Well memed

Why don't we just kill everyone and the last human standing can down a glass of cyanide and gin?

>>711987
Come on, it's a hobo. He's going to die soon anyway. This way, he lets five people keep living, who will bring happiness to those around them.

>>711918
didn't colonialism and the age of sail decrease the value severely of large parts of africa and the middle east? People could simply sail around africa to get to the silk road and I know the vast amount of gold from mesoamerica tanked mali

>>711999
Literally this
Op is a whiggist moron

>>711918
The "west" was still an iron age shit hole while most of the middle east was already civilized for a couple of thousand years.

Electing an Orthodox as pope.

>Vatican controls the military
>Jews control the money
>Muslim control the minerals
>they all control sex, drugs, rock n roll

>>711267
This probably would've worked about 14 centuries ago, but not now. Too much of a split between the two.

Really at this point, it's not a matter of ending the schism but rather absorbing the few remaining Orthodox back into the western church.

The first crusade would be dank

The Peloponnesian War

>>711118
Would probably be easier to do than WW1 since Peloponnesian War has more "main characters." WW1 would have a new cast nearly every episode.

O-okay Dan.

He also said this quote:

>"If anyone will is to do God's will, he will know whether the teaching is from God or whether I am speaking on my own authority" John 7:17

So Christ is telling us throughout the Gospels that He is doing God's will, and to understand that the teachings are from God, we have to apply them and see how they align with God's will.

This book isn't in my Bible but is the reading for today

>Reading 1,Jonah 3:1-10

1The word ofYahwehwas addressed to Jonaha second time.

2'Up!' he said, 'Go to Nineveh, the great city, and preach to it as I shall tell you.'

3Jonah set out and went to Nineveh in obedienceto the word of Yahweh. Now Nineveh was a city great beyond compare; to cross it took three days.

4Jonah began by going a day's journey into the city and then proclaimed, 'Only forty days more and Ninevehwillbe overthrown.'

5And the people of Nineveh believed in God; they proclaimed afastand put on sackcloth, from the greatest to the least.

6When the news reached the king of Nineveh, he rose from his throne, took off his robe, put on sackcloth and sat down in ashes.

7He then had it proclaimed throughout Nineveh, bydecreeof the king and his nobles, as follows: 'Nopersonor animal, herd or flock, may eat anything; they may not graze, they may not drink any water.

8All must put on sackcloth and call onGod with all their might; and let everyone renounce hisevilways and violent behaviour.

9Who knows? PerhapsGodwillchange His mindand relent and renounce his burning wrath, so that we shall not perish.'

10God saw their efforts to renounce theirevilways. AndGodrelented about the disaster which he had threatened to bring on them, and did not bring it.

>>710327

So to summarize this reading, God warns Jonah about upcoming disaster, and tells them to preach to the people.

The people are asked to fast and repent.

God sees them Repent and does not bring about disaster because He is pleased with their efforts.

This is good for present day understanding.

What the fuck.

Latins tend to be pretty easier to relate between themselves, culturally, imo.

Well known actors attract a much larger audience.

Most movies are not set in Africa, but Europe or the United States, so most movie stars are white.

Thus, it is more profitable for studios to use a cast of British and American stars than a cast of Middle Easterners.

the pharaohs were white

>>709904
Because Ancient Egyptians usually show up in the media when they have to do with the Bible, and everyone in the bible was white

Also: Christians are welcome to discuss and ask questions about Judaism and Jewish culture, but this is NOT the place to debate Christian topics of no relevance to Judaism.

>>709647
No matter what, you guys will throw a hissy fit whenever someone mentions Christianity.

Do you guys believe in reincarnation? If so please elaborate as to the process involved.

No. Incorrect. The existence of SCOTUS means that we can both have a society ruled by the law of the land, and a living constitution. After all, as the meaning of the document changes, the court exists to make new decisions, this codifying the new meaning as the law of the land.

>>709166
>9 un-elected lifelong judges should get to dictate law

Nawww, I'm have to disagree with you. The judges exist to uphold the constitution as is stands. It should be changed the way the founders intended- by amendment or constitutional convention

>>709174

this is the only reasonable and honest position.

>>708918
You're going to have to tl;dr his assertion down.

>>708924
The Second World War was nowhere near as mechanized as it is made out to be, tank battles were rare and tanks were not as much of a gamechanger as some people think, and it was largely like WW1 in nature.

>>708936
He is pretty incorrect. The whole ost front was lost by a poor choice of where to sent the mechanized units, and armor was extremely important in Africa and Italy.
