Of course they are. The same people advocating the illegal mass immigration of Muslim men are indoctrinating your children's mind.

More like we are removing the old bias against Islam that used to plague historical discussion for centuries, and still does in some places.

Also, nice biased propaganda image. It really drives home your post.

How does Plato's theory of forms address subjects such as religion, particularly the Greek pantheon of gods during that period?

I only ask because I really want to discuss this question, but haven't had the chance to read Plato's dialogues.

Uh, hard to say. With respect to the existence of a god or of gods, there's a discussion in the Republic wherein Socrates offers something like his views, and the Timaeus where the title character offers a "likely story" (literally "likely myth") that offers an account of a godlike being called the demiurge (literally "craftsman" or "worker for the people") who makes the universe by using the forms as his models.

That doesn't really quite get at some of the perplexities though. Socrates, pretty consistently holds to the sentiment that the popular stories told about the gods are false. This still leaves unclear which stories Socrates would take to be true about the gods, if any. In the Euthyphro, there's a strange moment where the "Euthyphro's dilemma" comes up--in that passage, most scholars pay attention to the formulation of a certain problem, namely, do the gods love what is pious *because* it is pious, or is the pious such only because the gods love it? If the latter, then the cosmos is willful, i.e., arbitrary, but both Euthyphro and Socrates immediately assent to the former view. That view, that the pious is independent of the gods, suggests that whatever the existence of the gods, we need not have any necessary dealings with them, since the pious (that is, the forms), insofar as they function as models for the gods, do just as well themselves as models for us.

So, in a very limited way, I suppose it does, but not directly.

platos forms had more to do with the egyptian gods than the greek ones, due to Plato being educated in Egypt for 13 years under the Horite priest Sechnuphis.

It is much easier to conquer through empty land such as Hispania, North Africa, Anatolia, and the Levant, or already inhabited places such as Greece, Southern Gaul, and Italia than it is to conquer uncivilized forest.

They did manage to conquer Gaul, Illyria, and Britain, so idk.

I've got a Spanish report due on philosophers. I've got to have 5, but I don't know of any mainstream or even semi-popular Spaniard thinkers.

I'm not asking for too much, just send names and a breakdown of their beliefs

Whoops, I forgot to say that they have to be Spanish philosophers. Though I hope you were able to determine that from my post

uhhh, spanish is vague, can't you use some people who just lived in that area?

Just try to stretch out the criteria of the word "spanish"

I suppose you can use people from the new world as well.

Google is your friend, I would help but I don't know much about those guys.

It was a Byzantine symbol that was adopted in the middle ages by various Muslim armies.

Countries that use the symbol now just stole it from the Ottoman flag.

you can't hold those shits up for long with vertical

Probably because with a horizontal handle you can fit your whole forearm on it to brace against a hit. If you have a vertical handle youve only got your wrist. Much more liable to break something.

Fellow /his/torians, what do you think of the possibility of a third world war in our lifetimes?
What kind of impacts would it have, who would it be fought by, possible catalysts, etc.

I for one am greatly intrigued by piecing together world history to sort of a "big picture" way of viewing. That by divining and recording the past, we can determine the future by tracking the path of human development.

I can't help but feel this would be a war centered around the U.S.A as that is the prominent superpower on the planet and has been for quite some time. I worry that like our forefathers in the days before ww1 that had no idea that a massive conflict was right around the corner and I can't help but feel a bit apprehensive reading about the history of mankind and knowing that these conflicts can occur at a moments notice because of the choices of a single individual.

So anyway /his/, what are the odds of ww3 happening in the next 2-3 decades? Are we living in a time of great change that will shape the future or merely going through a phase of stagnation?

We really need another World War.

It'll spell the end for Russia as we know it, and hopefully the United States and China can finally divvy up that sweet, sweet Siberian land with all its timber and mineral wealth. I'm willing to bet we'll get another space race out of it, too.
>>
>>670465
But what if something is developed that renders nukes useless? I'm not even talking about some super secret future weapon or shield I mean just espionage and sabotage which likely isnt very hard in current day US of A. I mean if you caused just the right amount of social unrest in the US it would have huge reverberations across the globe, you don't even have to directly fight America anymore just engage it in proxy wars and force them to waste billions on some sandniggers wearing jordans in the desert.

If America was weakened beforehand via EMP/Food chain disruptions/Economic collapse/civil unrest wouldn't that vastly change the current dynamic?

To a degree. Most modern nations working on a religion institution's dogma but the term "religion" is so hilariously vague that it cannot be said very clearly that their mainstream doesn't work off of something that could be considered a religion in some essence.
