Why has Islam failed to modernize unlike Christianity or Judaism?
No usury. Can't have a capitalist economy without usury.
it's not precisely islam that failed to modernize, it's that every secular muslim leader in the middle east has a funny way of getting bumped off by the US.
Religion is intimately connected with the host society.
Arab society is still shit.
Blame constant ethnic bullshit, the Cold War, and the Ottomans.
Let's talk about god and it's powers
It is strongly believed that God is all powerful, that it created world and can control it.
In many religions it is said that god created man in his likeness.
Today or at least in near future we are/will be capable of creating "life" similar to us, which will be much superior to us. Even today A.I research shows that it is much faster, stronger and plainly better that average human.
What if god created us just like this. What if man is much better than it's creator
Who cares.
We don't need technology to do that. Your mother and father should be God to you since they created you from just a tiny cell.
Before the first human were monkeys. So humans as a species/group has a Monkey God.

What are some of the worst choices in history? I'll start.
>US fighting Germany, rather than allying with them
>The entente allowing Germany to exist after world war 1
> let's just declare war on the entire world
Not /his/ but I'm pretty sure there's a series of alternate history fiction written by Harry Turtledove where the US loses 2 civil wars and allies with the German Empire for World War 1 and becomes a superpower with Germany by WW2 IIRC
How come people say Nietzsche is nihilist?
Anyone who is not retarded and actually read one fucking book of his knows he is against it.
>>1278048
Huh
Someone who got it
He sayed himself that his words arent for every ear
Nietzche is a nihilist in the same way that an atheist can still wish there was a god.
>>1278078
Bad example. Every atheist can wish for a god
Why was Russia historically so expansionist?
Once it was conquered, no one else bother to dismantle it due to shitty weather conditions

When did the Russian identity come into being? What did they think of themselves (excluding Poles and other non-"Russia" ethnicities) as?

Obviously the mad Baron. The dude ate his medals to prevent the soviets getting them.
Did he do anything wrong?
Besides for allying with Hitler
>>1264749
thinking he could play with the big boys
His agricultural policies were full retard and served as nothing more than propaganda (and didn't even work in that regard either)
>>1264749
Be retarded.
So /his/ what is your thoughts and opinions on the Armenian Genocide?
To call it a genocide is a bit of a stretch. It was just an organized mass killing of people from the same ethnicity.
>>1264743
This desu, it was a deluxe-targeted-mass-ethno-homicide, hold the mayo.
>>1264721
It was not a genocide, it was just the mass-killing of an ethnic group.
>One man gets a rifle, the other gets ammo. When the man with rifle dies, pick it up and fight for the motherland!
Now where in hell did this deliciously tasty meme come from? The Soviets had more than enough rifles to arm everyone.

Makes things more dramatic.
>>1260478
WW1, IIRC, where the Russians did have endemic problems supplying basics, even small arms, to everyone.
>>1260478
Not to mention the image of a commissar blowing the head off anyone who didn't follow orders.'
I think it's anti-soviet drivel that spouted up during the cold war and has since been accepted as fact by the west over time.
Why are modern landscapes so tasteless? We used to have our cities be literal works of art, now they're faceless blocks with logo's.. And our suburbs are literal boxes for people.

Celsus writings record that Jesus was fathered by a Roman soldier called Panthera.
So why do Christians believe that Jesus ben Panthera was fathered in pic related way?

I'm sure there's something else Christians do that demonstrates their total lack of understanding the scripture they supposedly fulfill, but I'm having trouble thinking of it.
>>1276974
Another one which isn't on the website which I can think of is the clear link between the appearance of the dove holding the olive branch in Genesis 8:11 which symbolizes a new beginning for mankind following the subsiding of the waters after the Flood and the dove identified as the Holy Spirit in the Gospels which descended on Jesus Christ following His baptism. But since that's from a "non prophetic part of the Tanakh" I should just ignore it all, huh? All Scripture is breathed out by God (2Tim3:16-17)...

The reason why promiscuity is bad is this: when a woman is promiscuous she gains a reputation for being such. Men view her as promiscuous and begin to desire her sexually (if she is attractive or known for being good in bed). Thus, she has degraded herself and turned herself into a sexual object because now men primarily view her sexually; she is an object of their sexual desire and primarily a means of fulfilling their lusts. This not the men's fault since they are naturally inclined to have shallow lustful desires. Essentially, promiscuity serves as a marker of a sexual...

Women get pregnant when they have sex.
>>1280875
Also this. You get teenage mothers, fatherless children, shotgun weddings, and abortions as a result of sex but contraception is eliminating this threat, although not everyone uses it.
>>1280874
tl;dr: promiscuity is a degrading waste of time and sex should be reserved for meaningful relationships
