What does /his/ think of Tomáš Masaryk? Was he the closest we've had to Plato's philosopher-king?

>Cato did not participate in the battle and, unwilling to live in a world led by Caesar and refusing even implicitly to grant Caesar the power to pardon him, he committed suicide in April 46 BC. According to Plutarch, Cato attempted to kill himself by stabbing himself with his own sword, but failed to do so due to an injured hand.
>Cato did not immediately die of the wound; but struggling, fell off the bed, and throwing down a little mathematical table that stood by, made such a noise that the servants, hearing it, cried out. And immediately his son and all his friends came into the chamber, where, seeing him lie weltering in his own blood, great part of his bowels out of his body, but himself still alive and able to look at them, they all stood in horror. The physician went to him, and would have put in his bowels, which were not pierced, and sewed up the wound; but Cato, recovering himself, and understanding the intention, thrust away the physician, plucked out his own bowels, and tearing open the wound, immediately expired.
TLDR: Cato committed suicide by literally disemboweling himself, rather than suffering the humiliation of being pardoned by Caesar.
Honor and integrity used to mean something.

His own family doctor/slave person was trying to save his life and he just ripped his own guts out. I mean, holy shit, who does something like that?

a reader's digest, Cato was a fucking retard, who plucked out his own intestines rather than live in a nation led by a populist shitlord

when and how will western civilization fall? who or what will replace it as top dog?
The next 20 years will see the "west" rise as the sole global hyperpower.

I was raised Catholic. What should I expect to be the same? And different?
Fucking Basques.
Depends eastern rite will be different considerably. Western rite wouldn't be too different. But even they can be rather different if they are very ethnic (like Syrian orthodoxy)
Which type are you going to?

Sardinians are related to Phoenicians and to the Bronze age people who built a great number of stone temples and cities on the island.
They of course descend from Romans too as thousands of colonists were sent from Central and Southern Italy to Sardinia under Roman rule.
5000 jews were also sent around 14 AD to Sardinia, and also a few thousand Sarmatians some centuries later.
But also some thousands of berbers were brought to the island by the vandals to try and fight the rebellious inhabitants, paid as mercenaries.
Later Spanish settled the island too.
Stop believing in god
Pretty sure he preffered people do the opposite.

Really makes you think
Protestantism is retarded in that it replaces the authoritative interpretation of the Bible (by the Church that was granted this authority by Jesus himself) with every individual being able to judge by themselves what the Bible actually says. It is literally the root of all relativistic and subjetivist ideas of today.
Fuck the reformation and fuck protestants.
>The Jews only hate us because Papists are mean to them
>What the fuck, these Jews are evil, why didn't papists have them killed

In his defence the rants about jews werent added since his followers didnt see the justification for it. Though im pretty sure they only removed stuff that were added by fanfiction writers othervise.
Why do Christians reject God? Is it because they hate Him? Why are they so angry and edgy?
Oh boy. Here we go again.

>>3086977
the current "pagans" are absolute retard larpers they cry about betraying muh "ancestors" while ignoring these ancestors who would practice Christianity for hundreds of years before they were born

>Judaism is the main part of European character
Wrong. Determination, innovation and a lust for greatness are the main parts of European character, European character which Christians have always been trying to murder.
How does one forgive themselves for past sins? At what point do bad actions define a person and override the good they've done?
>>3086917
I already told you we're all monsters now make peace with that or kys.
Or what, you need to talk about it or something?
>>3086917
Your good actions never have, and never will override all the bad you've done. You can be saved by grace alone.
