well obviously his name was "fire"

how else did we get the word "fire" for fire?

>rubbing things randomly together

Was it autism?

reminder. some tribes of Australian Aboriginals forgot how to make fire. They could only maintain naturally occurring fires. Some of them forgot how to wear clothes.To others, agriculture was setting fire to whole forests. So more desirable plants would grow back.

It's almost as if, America is an Anglo country and Anglos care far more about their fellow Anglos than continentals.

America is literally a British colony, why wouldn't they care more about Brits than the rest of the continent?
>inb4 America is Germanic
It's not.

I live in Latin America, the european section in our libraries (god forbid the average beaner knows what one is) is overwhelming about Spain(with considerable greco-roman we wuzzism and other latin euro wewuzzism)

We are literally a spanish colony, only makes sense we care about our ancestors'(even if, for some, they are our predecessors merely in culture)

Just forget the idea of reasoning your way into religion. Practice what you want to practice and ask God to give you faith.

I've personally seen God, which resolved all doubts. I'd post a picture, but this is a blue board.

The highest truth is knowing the Personality of the Godhead, or Krishna. Sometimes God is conceptualized as impersonal and to be void, but this is not the case. Just like you or I am a person, God is also a person. However, Krishna can only be understood by the practice of devotional service, or Bhakti-Yoga. it is the only way. Mental speculation will not allow you to reach the supreme. One can verify all of this by the repetition of the mahamantra:

Hare Krsna Hare Krsna
Krsna Krsna Hare Hare
Hare Rama Hare Rama
Rama Rama Hare Hare

Since God is absolute, he is not different from his name and thus his name gradually elevates you to understand him. After just a few rounds of repetition of the mantra you'll notice a shift to a higher consciousness, bringing you gradually towards the divine consciousness of Krsna Consciousness.

It wasn't though.

so wandering hunter-gatherers move around based on when they see a patch of land they think would be good for founding civilization?

Is that why north American natives were all savages compared to the Mayans?

Islam must be reformed

Atheism must be reformed into a coherent belief system building off of epicurianism and stoicism.

>>3125340
Atheists have no reason other than look for their own best interests even if that includes dishonest behaviour from their side.

You've highlighted the problem.

Secular Buddhists are cultural buddhist. By cultural, I mean they carry the baggage of western culture. Secular Buddhists accuse genuine Buddhists of cultural baggage(and Buddhists do have cultural baggage) when they themselves are subject to such baggage, its pathetic.

Buddhism without reincarnation, or more accurately REBIRTH, doesn't work. Rebirth is a fundamental force that drives the Buddhist. The end of cycle of rebirth. Why seek Nirvana if you dont believe in rebirth? Why not commit suicide? Thats the problem with Secular Buddhists.

Now there maybe secular Buddhist who do believe in rebirth but they've naturalized it instead of excluding it all together. Those are workable within Buddhism.

>>3125253

The only "tenant" of Buddhism is meditation. You don't have to believe ANYTHING, just practice meditation and you will reap the benefits.

>>3125321
That's not Buddhism. That's just meditation.

Buddha specifically advises not to dwell into the benefits of meditation as an end goal.

Because they are Asiatics. Lots of people don't know this, but Palestinians aren't really Arabs. They are actually one of the few remnants of the Roman Empire that still remains. Look at Linda Sarsour for example, she is clearly not from the Arabian Peninsula. She is a great-granddaughter of Hadrian mixed with Cypriot Greeks. Ashkenazi Jews, on the other hand, are recent immigrants to Europe from all across the world, mainly Persia, Iraq, Palestine, Egypt and the Caucasus. They only emerged in like 700 AD. This is why I support the Palestinians, they will be the ones to finally finish the Jews. No one has been successful at beating them since the Romans.

A lever action Winchester wouldn't have had a much slower rate of fire than a revolver. The primary advantage of revolvers was ease of carry and concealment.

Why?

I only know Spanish and French but I'll go with Spanish since its less autistic.

French > Romanian >> Italian >> Spanish > Portuguese

Romanians I've spoken to on 4chan are pretty based but French has better literature.

The Swedes were giving iron to the Germans throughout and did whatever they asked them to do so it wasn't worth the military operation.

The also sent volunteers to Finland to fight the Soviets. Kind of an honorary Axis member like Spain.

They seem to be El Salvador's punching the more I read about them

>>3124755
what do you mean?

>>3124775
They've always been fucked with by the Spaniards and wealthy land owners after El Salvador gained independence. In 1932 the government damn near killed the entire Amerindian population after a majority of them sided with commies in an uprising. The Mestizos kept fucking with them and taking advantage of them until the civil war in the 80s where another fuckload of them got murdered, from what I hear they're doing better now though.
