A good thing to discuss about Deborah Sampson
Any Americans that can enlighten us non-US about this person?
>From qz.com article
https://archive.is/VvieQ
According to historians, Sampson fought in several skirmishes, taking bullets to her leg and a severe cut to her forehead. She refused medical treatment for her leg injuries, opting instead to remove one of the musket balls on her own with a needle and pen knife. (She never got the second out.)
Sampson fell ill the summer of 1783 and her true identity was discovered by a doctor, who did not immediately report her. She was eventually given an honorable discharge and enough money to travel home.

I just finished reading the republic, translated in to English. I read the last 200 pages last night, when I heard people partying and enjoying their youths, and this morning. And not solely to gain the pseud cred, it was enjoyable. After some drudgerous shitfest like brothers Karamazov, some non fiction books have prose that is easy to appreciate. Reading Plato / Socrates condemn degeneracy did compensate for being a loser a bit, but I know ultimately it's an arbitrary opinion.
I don't have a lot to say about the book. It contained autistic daydreaming. It had really fucking half assed Sociology and political theorising ("4 Inferior Forms of Government- Number 3 Will SHOCK You!"), compared to long books today. The numerology was laughable. I lolled at how the translator and person who wrote the introduction, some Oxbridge public schooler, didn't write a lot of commentary about some of the numerology or 100 % bullshitty parts. Even he can't take it seriously.
I lolled at Plato's curriculum. 18-20: Military service (and physical activity all through life). 20-30: Mathematics (I assume he would approve of physics these days as well). Only at 30+ do you become a humanitiesfag. He would have zero respect for humanitiesfags today and "literary intellectuals". He agrees with me that art is for aesthetic value only, NOT for philosophising. He is basically me. Although not quite, he does deride young people who learn some philosophy and argue with everything. I think he means people like me who see that even Plato has no foundation.
I can't take any of this seriously intellectually though. My no BS view is that trying to answer questions of this type a priori (and even if you had a world simulator) is a fruitlessess endeavour.
My memory is awful but he concludes that acting in accordance with justice makes you mentally healthy. Even granting him all the dumb assumptions, if it's a question of health then why call it Justice?

Forms are just arbitrary definitions. This was a precursor to "objective morality". Academic philosophy selects for unfalsifiable ideas because they facilitate the citation circlejerk and book deals.
I think the two main responses will be abuse for pointing out that forms are arbitrary definitions ("REEE They exist in the ether, let me prove it using pen and paper") and using the word unfalsifiable. I don't use unfalsifiable as a synonym for wrong. I simply point out that there are infinitely many possible unfalsifiable theories. So why do we get told to care only about famous ones? (Answer: Fashion, financial incentives, intellectual dishonesty)
The second type of non insult response I will get is "Just turn your brain off, smoke weed, and enjoy it man!" I enjoyed it and did turn my brain off but I'm not turning my brain off now.
I feel I can start reading what I like and stop reading boring novels. The republic is as canon as it gets so pseuds can't criticise me for not reading it.

Did you seriously read that and not understand any of the deeper philosophical concepts.
Did you just read it for the sole purpose of arguing against it?
I would properly refute what you said and im sorry for not doing so but i really cant be fucked, take what i said with a grain of salt

I just realizes how much influence Achaemenid architecture has on early Indian Architecture.
It makes sense. Given that the Indus civilization died out, Indians basically ripped off Iranian civilization.
This continued in to the 1500s with Persian ripoff architecture like Taj Mahal

I never understood, how can people genuine link the Tocharian mummies found in Xinjiang to the Tombs of Qin - Tang Dynasties?
Despite the distant from the Tarim Basin to the Tombs (Chinese pyramids) are the same as Ethiopia to Greece. . .
Is there some link I don't know about, if so might any of you fine /his/torians give me some sources that might link them?
I am genuine curious of people can make such a big statement from ancient Chinese civilization was Aryan and that the terracotta army is Greek because of said mummies that lived there 1000 years before Alexander came along. . .
Or are people really to retarded and think Xinjiang was always considered part of China?

I would recommend Musui's Story, the autobiography of 19th century samurai Katsu Kokichi. Not exactly medieval but it does give good insight into the life of a poor samurai.
If you want medieval stuff as in Heian period stuff then I would read Genji monogatari and The Pillow Book.

The way culture and media and technology progressed made it no longer working, the same way feudalism stopped being viable. The same way democratic republics will stop being viable and give way to Chinese style government, which will in turn give way to anarchy and street gangs and then feudalism again when the population demographics explode.
Literally everything has a lifespan. 200 years from now people will be talking about how capitalism always ends in collapse as we slave away building pyramids for our warlord-gods.

9/11 is absolutely fascinating to me, because it seems like it has left the entire world in a depression that exists into this very day. And i don't mean just, "oh its the 10th anniversary of 9/11 so sad" or even on the scale of 'horrifying tragedy that made people sad'. It seems to have had a profound and permanent effect on the mood of the entire world, i don't know if i'm mis-attributing this global bleakness and depression to the wrong thing but it seems like 2000-2001 was the turning point in the world's emotion.
TL;DR: is 9/11 why the present day is so depressing? Why? If not, why IS the present day so depressing? (for reference, present day = 2000 onwards.

People outside of America didn't give much of a shit about 11-9 mate.
The thing was that we began waging unjustifiable wars on the middle east and decided it was ok to torture, this, mixed with the constant banging on about terrorism is kind of disillusioning.
The reality is that there is a listlessness in the world at the moment. Technology seems to have stalled. Making smaller and better phones rather than curing cancer.
Like Karl Pilkington says "its the age of pissing about". We spend our time shitposting or working pointless jobs in an urban nightmare rather than exploring the world or the universe.

You are correct anon and if you're ready for a serious redpill you should know that 9/11 was an elaborate human sacrifice ritual orchestrated by (((tptb))) to usher in the "New Age" of the new millennium.

Not even tipping here. I'm wondering are there any modern compromises in response to evidence that does actually contradict the bible?
I spoke with my uncle last night who told me the Earth is only 6000 years old and I didn't really have a response. Carbon dating is also apparently bullshit because of trees that are fossilised vertically or something.

Theologians just reinterprets the Scriptures. Since both nature and The bible are direct products of god, they cannot contradict each other, so if It happens its a problem of our interpretation of the Bible
>>
>>3176134
Are you American?
Probably grow up between protestants
Because in Catholic thought things were never taken that literally
Now i'm probably going to be called names by retards but it's true
The Bible is a collection of oral stories that were used to explain the birth of the universe and of the covenant between God and Israel and later between Christ and the world
People study it to understand and explain it and some people even in the same faith may come to different theological conclusions
The only thing that matter for a Christian is to love God and to love each other
The rest is commentary
