Moralism is objectively retarded
the world biggest superpowers history have see got there through methods which would label as inmoral
such thing as a christian or nationalistic society cannot exist, it would be detroyed by societies whom leaders take no pride in such ideas
prove me wrong
I can't
Why would anyone even reply to this thread, OP's tone is hostile and raving

The strong win, the weak are crushed, only when nationalistic powers rule can you have sovereignty and freedom and can the weak be free from the strong.

They'll never find the body
One of the former members of his mafia did an AMA on reddit I wanna say around a year ago. He stated that the body will never be found. One of the main theories that goes around here in new jersey is that we has thrown into a wood chipper
Could anything in history accurately be attributed to what we know as "evil"?
Are there any such people who are "evil"?
There are actions which according to a system of morality fall within "evil."
If a historical figure is defined mostly by acts deemed "evil" then that figure can be characterized as "evil."
Anything monarchy related or done by religious spearheads. If someone had a plan, gained political power and influence, while commiting atrocities to get in that place and later to secure it, that person is not evil, because they think they are in the right and just.
How will history remember Rhodesia? If at all?
For what it's worth, I don't think that Rhodesia will be remembered much at all. Instead, it will be twisted by white nationalist /pol/ types like Dylann Roof (pretending that Rhodesia was an all white country so they can masturbate to the idea of a race war) and communists (who will wrap it up as part of the broader narrative of anti-colonialism, which is a bit ironic seeing as Mugabe was funded by the Chinese, so it's sort of colonialism in the first place).

Racist country made by whitey to kill blacks.
This is actually what most people believe, I'm not trying to be /pol/.
Most people don't give a shit or don't even know that it existed. The only people who really discuss it are permavirgin neckbeards on internet forums, sort of like this one.
I do enjoy reading about Rhodesian SAS putting the beatdown on a bunch of retarded Africans, though.
>>66976
Well it doesn't help that the country's loudest admirers are racist whiteys who want to kill blacks.

Is Free Market Capitalism and secular democracy appropriate for a Christian society?
I grew up Protestant, so was obviously taught Jesus loves Capitalism and America, but converting to Catholicism later in life, I've grown skeptical of both.
>>Note: I'm not a leftist
I wonder though, can a Christian, in good conscience, accept a society that's turned pornography into a multi-billion dollar industry?
I've also grown skeptical of separation of Church and state. I think a better scenario would see the Supreme Court replaced by clergy on "moral issues" (defining that wouldn't be particularly simple).
Anyway, what are your thoughts? As a Christian, are you accepting of secular democracy and free trade?

Trying to analyze how the the narrative and moral basis of the christian religion (and its proselitysm) is entwined with western culture and policies is an appropriate historical thread.
Asking how society should change to accomodate your world view is a political one.
So, bring this to /pol/

If you had to choose one decade of the 20th century to live in... which one would you choose and why?
The 90s.
Well, I already lived in it, and it was pretty nice. 9/10 would live through again.
80s in loop mode.
The 50s and 20s seem interesting too, but I actually experienced the spectacle of the 80s.

Most of a Master's degree program in a liberal arts field is buddy system bullshit.
Academics, and I say this as nonpolitically as I can, are some of the most conniving, backstabbing people out there.
As far as why he's a teacher, I'm assuming you go to an American public school, so you're lucky he isn't a community college drop out with a degree in "general education" and a teaching certification.

Thered be a massive interior desert. Like, truly massive, makes the Sahara look like a kid's sandbox. Using that map, basically all of Brazil, Uruguay, Venezuela, the USA east of the Rockies, Canada east of their Rockies, everything in south Greenland, Spain, Portugal, Morocco, Algeria, Libya, Egypt, most of Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Ethiopia, Somalia, most of Pakistan, most of India, Ceylon, Mozambique, Zimbabwe, South Africa, and a good portion of Argentina, and everything in between, would all be desert.

What does /his/ think of Osprey Books? Are they good entry read for all those subjects that they represent?
They are definitely good entry points. People were compiling a huge list of books in a documentary in a thread the other day.
>>66401
They are more often than not quite good and the illustrations and pictures are great.
Expensive if you were to actually buy physical copies, I just torrent the ebooks.
Very good, they cover a broad area of armys ranging from the Warlord armys of civil war china to the East German Army.

I'm an historian specialized in french medieval history.
And I want to kill myself on a daily basis because of my career choices.
Ask me anything.
What level of education do you have? BA?
Pick up a programming language and apply french medieval history to it.
