>Can I be a Christian and also practice Zen?
Yea, you can also be an atheist, polytheist, asexual homo at the same time, pick your favorite gender now while it is hot. It's 2017, my friend, you can be the special little snowflake you want to be and everyone has to respect it.

>>3142673
being christian is too worldly to be compatible with zen

>>3142673
Zen is a philosophy and yes you can practice it if you are a Christian. You can be of any faith or world view and practice Zen. A good place to start is with the late Alan Watts. Hundreds of hours of his lectures are in YouTube. He dedicated his life to studying Zen Buddhism and eastern spiritual philosophies, so he could bring it all back and translate it in western language for us.

Moussolini had been talking about how strong the italian navy was, and how they'd push the Royal Navies shit in.
Churchill was telling Moussolini that he can build whatever kind of gay italian fleet he likes but, as long as Gibraltar is in British hands, the italian fleet isn't ever leaving the Mediterranean.
Mussolini didn't even get a chance to try it out, as the Fleet Air Arm smashed the Italian fleet at Taranto a few months later, using fucking bi-planes.
Chat shit get banged, basically.

Interestingly, the Japs took inspiration from the Battle of Taranto for the attack on Pearl Harbour.
We still celebrate Taranto in the FAA, annually. Taranto night. It involves getting really drunk, celebrating the victory at taranto, and making fun of the crabs, the italians and anyone else who isn't Fleet air arm or royal navy.

That map's not the warlord period though. Nominally it was 1916-1929

Also everyone was sort of pretty colorful.
>That Fatass Muslim Chinese general in the Republican Army, Ma Hongkui, who loved the fuck out of ice cream.
>Zhang Zuolin who headed the Fengtien Clique and was obsessed with restoring the Qing Dynasty,
>Zhang Zongchang of the Zhili Clique, the most colourful Chinese warlord. Alias "72 Cannon Zhang," "Dogmeat General," and "General 3 Don't Knows" because "He never knows how many soldiers he has, how much money he has, and how many mistresses he has." Had a private air force, master in the use of armoured trains, and a Praetorian Guard of White Russians.
>Feng Yuxiang. Basically a Protestant Redneck in a Chinese body- albeit a stellar disciplinarian- the "Christian General" who first fought for the Zhili, then for the Republican faction.
>General Qing En Liu. Less of a commander and more of a machine-obsessed eccentric, invented China's first Semi-Auto Rifle in 1916. Sadly the patented machine ordered from Britain to make the rifles sank due to WWI shenanigans, causing the general to become super-depressed.

Oh wait

Did any European powers such as France,UK or the Soviet Union take advantage of a fractured China?
If so, why didn't they?

French revolution destroyed western values

B-but muh oppression

Good.

Because it's more profitable to sell lots of little bottles frequently, instead of a few big bottles less often? A bigger bottle is more expensive so fewer people will be able to buy it.

I brought a gallon of bacardi from mexico this year

Because someone with a healthy mind does not drink that much liquor, he will enjoy it only on occasian and he wants to try many different things.
Only a brute would binge on a large bottle of -probably cheap- booze to get wasted, clouding his fragile mind even more.

Intelligent, nihilistic and with a wicked sense of humour.
