There are Chinese Jews

>Most scholars agree that a Jewish community has existed in Kaifeng since the Northern Song Dynasty (960–1127), though some date their arrival to the Tang Dynasty (618–907) or earlier.[1] Kaifeng, then the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty, was a cosmopolitan city on a branch of the Silk Road. It is surmised that a small community of Jews, most likely from Persia or India, arrived either overland or by a sea route, and settled in the city, building a synagogue in 1163.

>>2596098
>Shinto and Buddhism are Japan's two major religions. Shinto is as old as the Japanese culture, while Buddhism was imported from the mainland in the 6th century. Since then, the two religions have been co-existing relatively harmoniously and have even complemented each other to a certain degree. Most Japanese consider themselves Buddhist, Shintoist or both.

>Religion in Japan is dominated by Shinto (the ethnic religion of the Japanese people) and by Buddhist schools and organisations. According to surveys carried out in 2006[1] and 2008,[2] less than 40% of the population of Japan identifies with an organised religion: around 35% are Buddhists, 3% to 4% are members of Shinto sects and derived religions, and from fewer than 1%[3][4][5] to 2.3% are Christians.[note 2] In 2009, an official survey showed that over half the Japanese families had a "butsudan" or Buddhist altar in their homes. in 2009 data from the Agency of Cultural Affairs stated that there were 89 million Buddhists in Japan. [6] In 2011, after the Tsunami, it was reported that 90% of the Japanese identified as Buddhist or Shinto or a combination of both.

>Greeks had steam power and we could have had an industrial revolutino 2000 years earlier.
>Some Indian figures had blue eyes.
>Zoroastrian Ahura Mazda fighting the Lion looks like the Greek Aether fighting a Lion headed giant. I'm convinced, because of many other similarities, that Greek,Judaic, and Persian thought were all interlinked and came from ancient Persians originally.

desu, their idea of Buddhism and Shinto are not very "intrusive", specially compared to Western or Abrahamic religions. Also, specially in the case of Shinto, is more of a cultural thing, sure, you may not believe everything has a soul or what not, but its the OC religion of the country and your people, the least you can do is take part on festivals and the such.

The problem in most of the world is that you can't treat religion as culture because the number or fanatics there is. Sometimes you can even take part of religious celebrations or what not because you don't "believe" in them. And of course, we can't forget the other side of the spectrum, faggots who don't understand religion is part of human culture, history and society and they want to exterminate every aspect of it.

President John Tyler (b.1790) still has living grandchildren.

The last living German veteran of the Franco- Prussian war saw Germany united, destroyed, rise again, destroyed again, and rise once more. He died in 1953.

Most people on this board probably don't know this, but there was someone born on the obscure island of Corsica who became Emperor of all of France

>>2596113
Only morons think that though. Japanese people who claim they don't follow a religion just mean they are not actively religious, but their baseline beliefs are still more than likely a combination of shinto and buddhism since those religions are just hardcoded into Japanese society.

>>2596113
Japan has a weird approach to religion. They just sort of go with the flow for the most part. Shinto isn't even what you'd call a real organized religion, more a collection of folklore traditions, superstitions, and myths. Shinto observances have long been enfolded into Japanese culture to the point that they don't see visiting Shinto shrines or buying talismans as actual religious observance, it's just what everybody else does and what the previous generations did, so they go with the flow and continue the tradition. Buddhism is a bit more serious since it's tied to important ceremonies like weddings, funerals, and various holidays, but even still the Japanese just see these as yet more traditions to observe largely divorced from religious considerations.

nestorian christianity possibly arrived in Japan before buddhism.

There are three different words for Christianity in Chinese because the chinese came into contact with 3 different types of christian missionaries on 3 different occasions:
jingjiao - the bright religion (Nestorianism)
tianzhujiao - the sky lord religion (catholicism)
and later jidujiao - Jesus religion (protestant Christianity)


additionally syriac nestorian missionaries (St. Thomas is said to have been their leader) created a christian community in southern india known as the St. Thomas christians who came into conflict with portuguese catholic missionaries when they arrived in india much later leading to several schisms in the communities but their church still exists today

Assyrians, an ancient civilization from 4,000 years ago, still exist in the Middle East. Their nation suffered genocide by the Muslim Arabs and Turks though due to the Christian faith they converted to around 100 AD, and their power as a major Christian minority group in the Ottoman Empire and various Abbasid and Umayyad caliphates. They now vy for an independent nation in the Nineveh Plains and Dohuk regions of Northern Iraq.

>Great Society coincided with the golden era of NASA

LBJ’s “Great Society” was the start of a tidal wave of cradle-to-grave welfare programs in the U.S.

Meanwhile, the greatest expense of the space program was incurred early on, when the U.S. was building NASA from scratch but once the U.S. made it to the Moon, the costs were stabilized and were steadily going down.

But at the same time, more and more tax dollars were to more and more social programs (i.e. welfare) every year and it wasn’t just food stamps, the government was paying people’s rent, their utilities, providing free day care and literally mailing fucking paychecks to Blacks so they could sit around on their asses doing nothing all day (other then robbing their White neighbors while they were at work…).

LBJ’s “Great Society” killed the space program and the continuing costs have probably doomed Humanity to remaining trapped on Earth.

Black Africans were the first to deal slaves, theyre the reason the slave trade existed. It started with blacks selling slaves to whites for money. But nope, whites are racist blah blah blah

>>2607355
This. African Kings didnt have anything worth trading for guns n shiet with Europeans so they gave them the most valuable things they had: slaves

The concept of slavery was invented by white peopl

>>2607440
>Slavery can be traced back to the earliest records, such as the Mesopotamian Code of Hammurabi (c. 1860 BC), which refers to it as an established institution, and was common among ancient peoples such as the Sumerians, Ancient Egyptians, Akkadians, Elamites, Assyrians, Babylonians, Hattians, Hittites, Amorites, Ancient Greeks, Canaanites, Eblaites, Hurrians, Mitanni, Israelites, Persians, Medes, Kassites, Luwians, Moabites, Edomites, Ammonites, Armenians, Chaldeans, Philistines, Scythians, Nubians and Kushites, among others.

>>2607355
The US took in one of the lowest numbers of slaves from the trans-atlantic slave trade at around 500k. Over 90% of them went to South America, mainly Brazil, who had around 5 million.

And the Arabs, ho boy did they have a fun time taking 10-20 million slaves, before everybody else, I might add. You could say they pretty much jump-started the whole trans-whatever slave trades. Not only did they take more, but they were extremely cruel. Boys were castrated, with a 60% death rate (The price eunuchs fetched made it worth it). And girls, who were imported twice as much to fill the harems of wealthy individuals, seldom made it to the markets with their virginity intact.

>We passed a slave woman shot or stabbed through the body and lying on the path. [Onlookers] said an Arab who passed early that morning had done it in anger at losing the price he had given for her, because she was unable to walk any longer. We passed a woman tied by the neck to a tree and dead ... We came upon a man dead from starvation

White people are the racist devils, though.

>>2607540
Oh yeah, and the Arabic slave trade predates the trans-atlantic slave trade by 700 years, but didn't end until the 1960s.

At least we had enough decency to end it after 200.

That's weird because my mum read a lot of Von Daniken when she was a kid in communist Eastern Europe too. Must have been common and available books that somehow were approved by the party.
My mum wasn't as gullible as your dad though.

Japan is not atheist but it's also not religious.

Shinto in japan is a "religion" in the eyes of the west but over there it's just a cultural practice and underpinning assumption that has less to do with a deity or group of deities and more to do with a concept of the afterlife and the flow on spiritual effect this causes.

>>2607472

With the possible exception of the Nubians, every one of those peoples was white. Way to prove that faggot's point, dumberlekker.

>>2607562

Actually Arab slavery is still ongoing, non-Arabs, ie, Europeans, forced the Arab world to formally abandon slavery, but they still accept it in principle and refuse to accept any blame for wrongdoing for enslaving multiple millions, because their demon told they to.

shinto is the means by which the jap hivemind exerts its control. those dead-eyed fucks don't think of it as being religious or even spiritual, because instead, for them, it's literally an empirical fact that their actions are controlled and coordinated by amaterasu through their shinto practice.

>>2608075

Not really, since the Buddha did accept the existence of gods, he just thought it was foolish and pointless to worship them.

>>2608081

Except the king of England at this time WAS the king of France. The French ruler who called himself "king of France" was a pretender, the Anglo-Normans didn't give up their rightful claim top France until after the 100 years war.

>>2607907
Explain futher

>>2608081
Yes, arguably at one point France owned all of England. But it's not very surprising to learn that a powerhouse of a kingdom claimed suzerainty over some no-name backwater. Learning that the opposite happened really activates my almonds.

>One of the Khans who rule the Ilkhanate (Mongolian Persia, central asia and Mesopotamia) was a christian who got converted by his wife.

Genghis Khan's foster father and his daughter, who went on to become Kublai Khan's mother were Christian along with their entire tribe. Kublai had 10.000+ strong guard unit comprising entirely of Christians.

Regardless of any semantic white!=Caucasian arguing, slavery has risen independently in many civilizations all over the world. It's a human condition.

Trying to inject a political agenda into it is fucked.

That still ignores the FACT that whites were the first to practise it.
