Does anyone think "a burning bush that does not burn" sounds a lot like a hologram? It gives off light like a fire, but obviously, is not actually fire. If you were a primitive back then, how would you describe a hologram? Flame that does not burn, right?

And when described as an acacia bush, it kind of looks like a hologram. You have light artifacts that project in a cone from the projector, or the stems radiating from the roots of the bush, and the leave are the hologram, you can not tell me there is not an uncanny resemblance.

And hail of fire? Doesn't that sound rather similar to firebombing? And when Moses used biochemical warfare, it's clear the bible says he dispersed some sort of powdery substance in the air to cause a plague. And doesn't a mushroom cloud resemble a pillar of fire? I think Moses' staff may have actually been a tentacle shaped robot, which explains how it appeared to turn into a snake.

It depends entirely on your criteria. Early war? Late war? What front? What altitudes? Do you have good airfields? All of these are huge factors in how successful fighters were in the war.

I think you can still consider 'ethnicity' as a sort of cultural classification

I think the years of Prussian instead of Russian rule in East Prussia was factor in 'Germanizing' ethnic Poles

It's a heathen holiday. Bible doesn't tell me that I can't celebrate non-Christian holidays. And the only Christian thing about Christmas is the name. And it isn't even called Christmas where I live.

Pretty much discredits the "Catholicism never changes" argument, especially Lumen Gentium, Dignitatis Humanae and Unitatis Redintegratio. There was a lot of blatant displays of corruption such as cutting Cardinal Ottaviani's microphone. Many of the architects of the council were Freemasons, relativists, Jews, and Protestants who wanted to water down Catholicism and suceeded. Of course the crusader fetishists on /pol/ don't realize their church now teaches non-Catholics can be saved and their anti ecumenism is the biggest sin in the church of 2015 (if they even believe in it, it's probably just a meme to most of them considering how most of them masturbate daily).

It's clear that the modern Catholic church differs vastly from the pre-concilliar church. The SSPX, being non-sedevacantist offers no practical solution to the crisis in the church and rejects the pronouncements from the pope they claim to follow. The FSSP is just aesthetic preference for the Latin Mass. Sedevacantism has no solution as to how to get a pope back.

The only real answer to the "crisis" caused by the aberration of VII is to realize that Catholicism is not true.

How common was rape in the middle ages in Europe? In Asia?

Was it mainly a peasant thing?

And if it was at least as common as it is today then 70% of all children must have been bastards. Why would a medieval men raise them as their own instead of exposing them?

Free labour.

Plus you don't raise them as your own.

You raise them as bastards and brutalise them.

>>373063

Books and essays have been written on the subject, though I can't think of any off the top of my head.

My understanding of it though is that it happened with a about the same frequency as today, though proving it was difficult without modern methods. There was also a peculiar medieval belief that a woman had to have an orgasm to become pregnant, therefore if she became pregnant as a result of rape, it must have been consensual as she enjoyed it.

I imagine a lot of the time, things were resolved by husbands, fathers and brothers with pitchforks and daggers rather than in the courts.

There are however very explicit instructions against raping and pillaging by the English army during Henry V's campaigns, based on earlier instructions. The penalty given is death in think.

That women were raped when the Lancastrian army sacked Ludlow during the Wars of the Roses, is mentioned almost as an after thought, given after mentioning the furnitureb they stole.

Jews were a huge part of the Bolshevik movement, they had a huge influential in the course of the October Revolution and the Russian Civil War. Later, during Stalin's era, they were some of his most willing executioners, Jews like Lazar Kaganovich and Genrikh Yagoda had a huge part in the Soviet famine of 1932-1933, specially the Ukrainian famine that came to be called the Holodomor. And though their power in the Soviet Union declined after the Great Purge, they were influential in the newly established communist regimes of Eastern Europe after World War II. Hungary, Poland and Romania, all had Jewish leaders during their most repressive, Stalinist period.

My question is, how do Jews react to that? Germans, for example, are told to feel guilty for the crimes of Nazi Germany, just as White Americans are expected to apologize and pay reparations for slavery. Europeans, overall, are still held accountable for the crimes of colonialism. So how do Jews get away with their involvment in one of the most murderous regimes of the XXth century? How can there be no guilt, no apology, not a single Jewish person who has come forward and said: "hey, maybe we did bad things in Ukraine, we should feel bad"?
