Would it be false to assume that most """"""""""""""Christians"""""""""""""" in Europe had all these weird fucking ways of torture because they were simply sadistic assholes who enjoyed it? I know that all of it wasn't necessarily invented by Christians, but just the fact that they had all those weird "trials by ordeal", flaying etc. still in use is fucked up.

>This heretic has committed a crime, we should behead him to kill him quickly.
>Nah, how about we get him to the church, force a funnel into his throat and fill his ass up while some random dude stands next to me reading bible passages.

Well, isn't suffering a very important part of Christian ideology? The martyrdom of Christ, suffering makes you holy, etc. etc. That's why there are Christian people who self-flagellate as well.

Yes, op. Pagan Europeans chucking people in metal bulls to bake alive or nailing them up in sticks or trees was the fault of Christians

Dali was rich from a rich family. He didn't have to worry about a single shit that weren't his acid trip dreams, his paintings and wanking while thinking about his waifu. He didn't give a shit about the rest of the world.

Picasso was more involved with reality.

I've read about modal ontological arguments for the existence of God, and it seems some atheists think that the same sort of argument can be used to argue the non-existence of God:

1. If God exists, God is necessary.
2. It is possibly the case that God doesn't exist.
3. Therefore God is not necessary.
4. Therefore God doesn't exist (modus tollens, from 1)

So /lit/, what's wrong with this argument?

Define God, and list all its attributes, and we can maybe quantify the possibility of its existence.

In WWI, the British and French did most of the work.
In WWII, the Soviets were the prime downfall of every Axis state except Italy and Vichy France.

Plus, if you're an American, there is a high chance you have either German ancestry, or something similar like Anglo-Saxon or French backgrounds, which if you go back to Roman times, they were considered the same.

Given they're from Eora, that's a pretty good deal.

Can someone summarize the migrations, conquests and displacements in Europe before the Bronze age? Who, what, when, where? What did they speak? What impact did they have on the way of life?

Who were the European hunter-gatherers? Is it just a generic term for a diverse set of peoples who inhabited Europe or was there a common origin and such?

Are the Early European Farmers just some colonists from the middle east who brought farming?

Were the Indo-Europeans violent subjugators?

Conjecture is that they spoke a langue similar to basque given the theory that basque is an isolated population of what might have been a larger language area.

Why do Muslims (I see it in Turkish news all the time) appropriate the explicitly Christian term "martyr", which absolutely excludes people who die in combat, and apply it to people who die in combat? I'm not trying to shit on Islam or anything, but this really rustles my jimmies. You can't be a martyr if you die in the act of killing people, full stop.

Martyr is just the English translation, it's called Shaheed in arabic
>>
>>469292
In Arabic, a martyr is termed Shahid. Shahid appears in the Quran in a variety of contexts, including witnessing to righteousness, witnessing a financial transaction and being killed, even in an accident as long as it doesn't happen with the intention to commit a sin, when they are believed to remain alive making them witnesses over worldly events without taking part in them anymore (Quran 3:140). The word also appears with these various meanings in the hadith, the sayings of Muhammad. The Greek origin of the word also means 'witness.'
>>
>>469321
This. If you don't know Arabic, you need English translations. If you use English translations, you're gonna get some overlap of terminology.

Ancient Oriential Wisdom, surely:

VI-iv-14: He who wishes that his son should be born fair, study one Veda and attain a full term of life, should have rice cooked in milk, and he and his wife should eat it with clarified butter. Then they would be able to produce such a son.

VI-iv-15: He who wishes that his son should be born tawny or brown, study two Vedas and attain a full term of life, should have rice cooked in curd, and he and his wife should eat it with clarified butter. Then they would be able to produce such a son.

VI-iv-16: He who wishes that his son should be born dark with red eyes, study three Vedas and attain a full term of life, should have rice cooked in water and he and his wife should eat with clarified butter. Then they would be able to produce such a son.

VI-iv-17: He who wishes that a daughter should be born to him who would be a scholar and attain a full term of life, should have rice cooked with sesame, and he and his wife should eat it with clarified butter. Then they would be able to produce such a daughter.
