You're right, worshipping an entity besides God is polytheism so catholicism is by definition polytheism since it believes that God has an equal in the form of a mere man.
Pretty blasphemous when you think about it.

>protestards think this is a bad thing
If anything I wish Catholics embraced their paganism and got rid of the OT. Stop this charade already.

>>3060781
Plato and Aristotle should be the OT, not Jewish revenge fantasies and plagiarized Babylonian myths.

You want /adv/.

Also, who is the "they" that has full custody over the child? Are you the biological parent? Why is your ex demanding child support? Do you have a pre-existing obligation?

>>3060521
Fuck the child

>>3060530
Im the biological parent the they is the other biological parent, I had a preexisting obligation but now i also have the child and my ex is off doing blow and refusing to sign custody or come pick up the child

>>3060466
I find the hodge-podge of ironically and edgily-crafted meme ideologies constantly being stuffed down this board's throat more annoying than random ego stroking that you see on every history site. What you say is true, but it doesn't change the fact that the /pol/ version of it is more annoying than the vanilla version, as well as the anti-/po/ reactionary retardation that accompanies it.

TL;DR

redditors love to make pretend to hate /his/, but they keep on coming here, ask historians is the boring frat house with polite society, /his/ is the community college course that routinely ends in fist fights

Jews and Babylonians were different nations, a period of Jewish history is their captivity in Babylon.

Both were Semites, and both spoke Aramaic languages, but Aramaic wasnt their native language, the native language of Jews was Hebrew, and the native language of Babylonians was Akkadian.
They were different nations of the same group, like the Dutch and Austrians.

>>3060589
It wasn't the original language. But it was their native language. Both Hebrew and Akkadian became classical.

>>3060383
Babylon was founded by the akkadians who were Semitic. Aramean was spread because the Assyrians spread the people they conquered throughout their empire

He bragged about how he was going to destroy Israel for so long that Israel was able to preemptively attack and destroy him.

the transition happened as the system that copy-pastad urban centres like that, and maintained roads and water infrastructure and trade and the army etc..., collapsed

the reversal to organic defensive implosion was a reaction to a doomsday scenario of crisis, invasion, depopulation and infrastructural collapse and sudden scarcity

much of the early middle ages is basicaly what a postapocalipse culture would look like after a generation

As far as I know, the only city that survives well into middle ages with this form is Constantinople

Interesting... a style of city planning created and used by a specific culture disappeared when the said culture and its technological achievements disappeared. What a weird coincidence... Surely uneducated barbarians would've built similar regular cities, with theatres, colosseums...

>>3060227
because they were centers of trade. also because wealthy patrons paid for those works of art to be made. today they just buy shitty minimalist art

>is there any truth to this quote
absolutely not, just a renaisanceaboo

BECAUSE THEY WERE RELATIVELY LESS RACIALLY DEGENERATED THAN SUBSEQUENT GENERATIONS.

It started with browsing /pol/ and hating Jews, then after returning to society, I read "The Art of War" and one of the steps is to make your enemy your best friend... Now I'm studying Judaism haha... Learning to channel my rage into being educated & productive towards my society.

Perhaps the Existential Journey is a path to find a meaningful life, you dive into the depth of the mind looking for undeniable truth in order to build upon that concrete surface.

>>3060020
how was he a liar tho?

>>3060024

Knew nothing about Judaism, barely knew about the the gospels or Jesus (having never met him), could only sell his story to ignorant gentiles because Jews were too smart for his shit, etc.

I'm Christian but honestly Paul does seem a little bit the fly in the ointment. I'm convinced his doctrine cannot be reconciled convincingly with James and I would have to think that James, being actually physically in the presence of Jesus is a better source. So I do works because I don't think you can rest on grace. I would say if you want to hedge your bets though then look at works as sanctification.

it's a fucking island, how could you invade an island with a small fleet and can't even take back your land
i'm french btw

Lindy stopped them

Mommsen was a genius, and Romische geschichte is a treasure trove, but there's been a lot of work since then. There hasn't been a complete English translation in over a hundred years, although some parts have been translated more recently. If you're a relative beginner, try a more recent book, like Mary Beard's SPQR. Then take a look at Mommsen.

>>3059931
Sorry for not adding some information, but I'm mayoring in History and I'm reading the spanish version; so I guess its more difficult to give me an answer.

Thanks anyway

>>3059966
And I'm sorry for being so anglocentric. But I still believe that, while Mommsen is the foundation of much of modern scholarship, you're still better off reading a more recent work in order to get a 21st century view of the facts. Then, perhaps, go back to Mommsen for his depth and insights. Best of luck.

*sniff* and scho, Plato, you can err schee, how thisch *tugs t-shirt* ineschxactitude of categorical definischons *sniff* and that is errr terminological ambiguities and abstractions and scho on and scho on, *sniff* can lead usch to define the man as a man without man, you see, how all things also contain their negation. Plato have lotsch of.. sex.. with young boys. He enjoy, yes? but so with boy-sex we have Plato'sch woman without vagina, Plato'sch man widout man, and scho on.

Its economy had basically failed to grow forom 1969 to 1989 except in the matters of oil exportation and alcohol consumption. Centralized economies are not very good for growth.

>>3059547
It's pure economical reasons. Un-diversified, non-competive economics basing on oil prices and imports. Incompetent and corrupted government played a role too.

>>3059420
Just the whole dramatization of history and the deliberate omission of facts that counter the simplistic story that they're trying to tell.

>>3059432
This, history is such a rich source of drama, tragedy and even humor that you don't actually have to change anything.

Like, imagine the Alexiad or Secret History done up in a miniseries.
