Can you cite some examples of leftists making this distinction?

I can't find it right now but a lot of Occupy protesters made that argument in defense of their Apple products.

Private property = capital
Personal property = not capital

Do you want to revive Pagan religions because you think they're cool or because you believe in the gods and worldviews encompassed by them?

Because they are dumb shit for fat fedoralords who wan't to feel powerful because centuries ago some people he isn't related to because even his ancestors were beta were warriors.

>Vikings beating Ireland
>Brits beating Ireland

They consumed & dissolved all their antagonists.

of course not, it was a fucking famine. is ethiopia a fucking genocide by us, because we don't give them enough food for all of them to survive?

also picrelated (starved man in Harkiv, Ukraine - 1932), they all look wellfed to me, the guy probably died of alcohol poisoning.

That's controversial because since most academics are leftists who would love to destroy their own independent landowner class (just see how much hate American intellectuals can spew against Southerh Whites) they absolute love the concept of dekulakization, so the end result of this policy being the death of millions of people is very uncomfortable for them to defend. They either ignore it hoping it will go away or they try to invent bullshit reasons to excuse Stalin (that was popular in the 1980s, see the works of Sheila Fitzpatrick, but then the Soviet Union fell, the archives were opened and they were left discredited).

So no, the holodomor is not considered a genocide by the intelligentsia, some countries consider based on political reasons but that's not enough. In 100 years no one will remember the Holodomor because only things that make the left stand in good light are worth remembering by intellectuals and since they will want to kill the kulaks again before the end of the century (see Salon's obsession with anti-racism and anti-white bigotry) they will have to pretend the last time they tried it never happened and it never went wrong.

More things qualified as magic

It wasn't magic, it was technology stolen from the Goa'uld.

Black magic was/is psychological manipulation and hypnosis.

Nice fedora thread.

>Why is it, that most historical events that are of incredible importance to the west took place there?
Don't know what that means

>Perhaps one of the most interesting and mysterious areas of the world.
Not really. Thankfully, European archaeologist uncovered a shit ton of "lost" history


>And why is it, that this once so flourishing land has now become diseased with war and conflicts?
Lots of reasons, and yes, Islam is one of them

Any questions?

>Why is it, that most historical events that are of incredible importance to the west took place there?

I know it's a meme, but it really is a "crossroads of culture" hence its importance (and flashpoint status).

>And why is it, that this once so flourishing land has now become diseased with war and conflicts?

Shit got real nasty after the breakup of the Ottoman Empire and basically everyone involved is to blame in some measure

I'm not going to say it's the Jews buuut... it's totally Israel's foreign policy to destabilize the entire region at all costs, with support from many other states.

Popular. Good cutting swords.

There's really not much to say.

>>503778
A mixture of an axe and an arming sword, the falchion was great at parting rings of chainmail. Fell out of use once plate started to appear because you cannot cut plate. Not that useful against enemies not wearing chainmail because of the lack of an effective point but if you were hit with it on bare skin...well, you don't want to know.

umm ya i do :^))

The bible itself is dynamic. It can be changed if change is required. It's just a collection of books and letters

Aquinas would disagree

>It is unlawful to hold that any false assertion is contained either in the Gospel or in any canonical Scripture, or that the writers thereof have told untruths, because faith would be deprived of its certitude which is based on the authority of Holy Writ. That the words of certain people are variously reported in the Gospel and other sacred writings does not constitute a lie. Hence Augustine says (De Consens. Evang. ii): "He that has the wit to understand that in order to know the truth it is necessary to get at the sense, will conclude that he must not be the least troubled, no matter by what words that sense is expressed." Hence it is evident, as he adds (De Consens. Evang. ii), that "we must not judge that someone is lying, if several persons fail to describe in the same way and in the same words a thing which they remember to have seen or heard."

The ending of Mark.

Start a revolution and make yourself leader, that should give you the validation you require.

>>506671
Make your own adventure, anon.

Since you seem so addicted to new things you might as well deal with science taking over the jigsaw puzzle of life by starting to preach totally new, never before thought of values and morals, just like everyone else has started to do.

The intellect is the only frontier now, no sidestepping the problem with treks or voyages or risking life.

Try to become sexually attracted to something new and unique like cactus or worms or broken glass and tell people about your discovery, they will look up to you for it, I promise.

Because they have zero interest in medicine, dentistry or law?

These people are just being picky. Really, all jobs become boring over time. Just memorise some shit at uni and find a well-paid, stable job afterwards. Work is not meant to be fun and it is more important that you can pay the bills in the future.

Good goy.

The very basics was, Ra-stafari inherited the throne of ethopia or some shit was the only nation not to be colonized, first christian nation and a good leader. So they saw him as a kind of second coming, someone who was gonna bring all africans back to africa. The people who believed it were called rastafarians. I'm more interested in the guy due to ww2 politics but thats a starting point.

Weed.

A fucking LOT of weed.

>dude weed lmao: the religion

It involved the worship of then Ethiopian king, but devolved into mindless bullshit once it spread to Caribbean and US blacks (just look at Snoop Dog).

If you're a lawyer with an interest in getting wealthy, then definitely.

>>499182
>Civil Law
>good

>>499188
Surely it's the other way round. Civil law is less esoteric than common law and more accessible, so laypeople engage a lawyer less often.

Not that I support civil law. Common law masterrace here.

Because its the bible you fucking retard

>>497280

Not really. I mean, they don't follow 90% of the laws given in it, and they don't really draw upon its imagery or themes.

>>497280
Its the origin story.

Soon as books like "Bloodlands" are becoming more popular. It's just old Cold War legend. Actually it's more like an evolution. First the USA didn't care at all. Then when they entered WWII the USSR (one of the countries that started the war while allied with Hitler) was on the side of the west. Hollywood responded with pathetic movies praising Uncle Joe and the Soviet Union (Gregory Peck's first acting role was in one of such movies).
Of course then the Cold War happened and suddenly "we've always been at war with Eastasia" only gradually the relations between the countries were improving but there was still one pretty awkward thing and it was something that wikipedia calls "western betrayal" although I've never seen this term called like that anywhere else. Anyway the Soviets were just as bad if not worse than the Germans but they were also American allies. This continues to be relly awkward especially since Russians themselves believe in lies their government tells them about WWII. As an effect the Americans prefered a safe version of history where there's place for D-Day, Pacific theatre, maybe something involving their British allies and of course Auschwitz but nothing else. Let's hope this is about to change.

Well that depends on what you want to replace it.
