He looks creepy.

The media unjustly blamed him for the sex scandals.

>He had the same views as John Paul II and Francis
No, he criticizes the theology of liberation.

He was immediately replaced by a liberation theologian jesuit.

No, he was directly involved in cover ups during his earlier work.

The brain is developed in part as a result of DNA, but it's paths and formation are altered as a result of environment, use, habituation, etc. It is clear that the repeated use of aspects of the brain alter it's composition, see neuroplasticity. It is not entirely determined by genetics as a result.

Also, intelligence existing as a property of the soul, taking soul to be a metaphysical consciousness, does not necessitate the existence of God. All it necessitates is a metaphysical reality, the contents of that are unclear aside from a soul.

Engineering is a higly technical job and most of its science was actually done in the industry Its an experimental endeavour buitd by people who were trying to achieve practical goals History is a field built by academics who rely on the academia to support and verify their research

STEAM jobs can be trained while in the middle of doing the job. They can be given simple tasks today while in mid-training. You can't do that with history.

They're disenfranchising us, anon.

Philosophers suggest that humans can do more than simply exist. Philosophy encourages humans to do something with their life. It encourages action in life. To prove that this is possible, one can easily turn to the great figures of history who risked everything and worked painstakingly hard to make change as they saw fit. Is this not the perfect way to inspire one to make change?

Academia realizes this. They don't want people thinking for themselves when it comes to the world. They don't want people striving for change. As such, academia supports the sciences.

After all, what better way is there to discourage change than to say that humanity is a mere result of a cosmic accident and that humans are simply automatons who act on the impulses caused by chemicals in the brain? Then when one denies this, those who disagree with he/she can just say that such denial is hampering scientific progress and then ask for a peer review. This makes scientists unquestionable beings, who can never be wrong about their dull, literal outlook on life.

The Humanities are being killed so that questioning existence will be discouraged.

Elliot Hulse is a bretty good philosopher.

His ideas are almost a blend of Transcendentalism, Classical Philosophy,small parts of Eastern Philosophy, and the streets. He also supports strength training for everybody, and runs a strength camp. His YouTube channel is dedicated to lifting advice, life advice, and philosophical speeches.

Beware though, he gets way too into some Eastern rituals.

I was under the impression he was a meathead by the way /fit/ talks about him.

It's kind of too early to tell--we're only in the second decade of the century. Anyway, you don't find many philosophers with the same kind of stature as Kant or Hegel or Heidegger. Philosophy is mostly an academic industry these days, pretty insular and focused on very particular, esoteric 'problems' that are completely opaque and untranslatable for laymen.

If you're interested in current debates in philosophy, just subscribe to our look up any of the numerous publications that are being put out constantly.

Evolution is a lie.

>>499080
History of Science should work on both boards afaik.

Wish I could say the same about my dick in your ugly mom. But it's neither evolving or a lie.

the only problem with homo is that homos cannot reproduce, also shit dicking and disease

Iirc fps such as call of duty fall into catharsis, relieving your feelings of anger and rage in a harmless environment and make you feel better about yourself, much like Greek tragedies.
Rap was a political voice for young impoverished blacks when it began, and as their lives involved encounters with crime it was naturally a part of the subject matter.

>hey guys lets begin a war for a region that can only be reached and supplied by sea
>we have only one worthy ship, lets risk it in some irrelevant naval battle
>we have a badass ironclad and are against some shitty wooden schooner
>hmm, these waters seem really shallow and the enemy ship tries to get as close to the coast as possible, so obviously LETS RAM IT

Peru truly deserved the rape they received during the Pacific War.

If it came from God it would mean that moral is subjective. Go away you silly relativist.

Never heard, but it sounds like I'll never have anything to do with them ever.

Is it another Cracked tier crap?

>HOLY FUCKING SHIT DID YOU KNOW THIS KING HAD A 9 INCH DICK

>>498135
Maybe. Cracked usually lies in their history articles.

In Poland they could become nobility among other things.

All of Europe? He just wanted to beat France really badly and create lebensraum in the Soviet states. But things changed and got out of hand when Poland rejected him.

>>497980
He was convinced of two very important things.

One. The fact that the current borders of Germany were insufficient. The German people needed more land to live in and cultivate. He believed that a lack of arable land led to poverty and degeneracy for many Germans: if a man cannot even grow his own food, how can he be a proper citizen?

Two. He believed that communism, socialism and every ideology left-leaning was a pure manifestation of Jewish evilness. The USSR embodied this Jewish corruption and the only way for Germany and Nazism to know success was by exterminating all Jews and all Jewish creations, most prominently the USSR.

Nazi ideology depended on a war in the east. It was unavoidable without massive doctrinal changes.

Pure autism and him being a shitty leader, both politically and militarily. Theres a reason a bunch of generals tried to assassinate him and his poster boy Rommel didnt like him at all.

He would have done ok for himselfand probably gone down in history as a arguably good leader if he didnt throw a shitfit about some irrelevant port in Poland.

nowhere because he isn't good except for one (1) single rubai.

>>497843
Why is he painted like an Orthodox icon?
