Why do protestants denounce the Old Testament when Jesus himself said, "Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them." Isn't it a bit of a stretch to assume by "fulfill" he meant his followers would no longer need to abide by the old laws?

>protestants
but this is the general interpretation of all modern christians thanks to Paul. I don't remember catholics ever refusing to eat pork.
Catholics do it, too. It's because of St. Paul. Don't listen to Gnostic or Jewish lies about the validity of his testimony.
Don't Christians in general denounce the Old Testament? Or at least disregard it
What exactly leads Protestantism, especially the Fundimentalist Evangelical kinds, to fall to scrupulousness and do stuff like this:

And considering that series involves a prophesied being of Light coming to drive out a great being of Darkness and who's characters champion virtues of Unity, Duty and Destiny (note Destiny doesn't alway entail "everything is predetermined and you have no say in the matter on it at all" and in this case is "here's a goal, goal will make you happy and feel...

>How do we as the United States of America Prevent India and Pakistan from going to war
They'll never go to war. They both have nuclear arsenals pointed at each other. Mutually assured destruction. They don't need the US of all countries going in there and causing more chaos and upheaval (like they always do with their "humanitarian interventions")
>relieve tensions between the countries

Nuke em both. When both countries are cinders, they won't be warring against anyone. And with no people, there will be no tensions.

The most brilliant general in history is a culkold. We should all probably be cuckolds then.
I made this thread yesterday, but nothing got going, so I'll give it another shot.
Tell me about the Caucasus /his/. Its sheer diversity is fascinating. Also, it'd be nice if someone could give me some stuff to read on the history of the Caucasus. There's little out there, and whatever there is starts from the 1800s with the Russian conquest. Work on the medieval Caucasus especially would be appreciated.
>>1053282
The Caucasus was considered the fringe of the world by the archaic Greeks, believing Colchis to be where the sun rose. Jason and the Argonauts traveled there because it was the ultimate long distance journey.

I consider it where Russia ends, and the Middle East begins.
Armenia is there doing its best Israel impression, a small country hated by all its neighbors and trying to fight them all, supported by the big world power Russia.
Basically Russia, Iran and Turkey use it as a borderland between each other, power playing when they see a chance.
Historically I don't know if its relevant. I know a lot of armies came out of that area into the Mesopotamian...

The neocolonial dialectical hegemony disunites the subject from his unity, and the unity from the subject.
A consecutive aurora of differentials are produced in proportion to the misalignment of the dominant social relations to gender and class, arrayed in sociotemporal- historical sequence.

Hey, would /his/ be the right place to ask about global nuclear disarmament vs the stockpiling of nuclear arms in the interest of preserving peace between developed nations?
The topic came up at a friend's house earlier today and I'm been wrestling with it on the drive home. I will say, I've used the threat of atomic annihilation (in vidya) to ensure that my enemies/rivals think twice about going to war with me and have thought twice myself when I faced the same threat without countermeasures or the capacity for an equal response. Outside of video games...

My thinking is.
>nukes trade a constant death toll from conventional conflicts for an unpredictable risk of a much larger death toll
>the less individual command structures there are that are capable of conducting a nuclear strike, the lower the odds of a nuclear strike
>collective defense allows one hegemon with a substantial nuclear arsenal to provide a nuclear umbrella for other countries, while reducing the risk of Dr. Strangelove happening
>it is still possible for treaty obligations to lead into a nuclear holocaust, but clearly defined military commitments reduce the risk of a strategic miscalculation

Reminds me of WWI without the secrecy.
Is the argument:
>The invention and stockpiling of nuclear weapons stopped large scale wars between global powers
True or common misinformation?

What the hell went wrong? How did the Muslim rulers of Iberia continuously lose more and more land to significantly smaller Christian states, who were often fighting with each other as well?
>what went wrong
The mudshits getting there was the only thing that went wrong. Driving them out was the best thing to happen to Iberia.

Several thousands of German soldiers got stuck there.
The Allies really didn't have any way to storm t as they were cut off form supplies and out of the way to Poland, so they just let them be.

>William Adams (24 September 1564 – 16 May 1620), known in Japanese as Miura Anjin (三浦按針: "the pilot of Miura"), was an English navigator who in 1600 was the first of his nation to reach Japan. One of a few survivors of the only Dutch East India Company ship to reach Japan from a five-ship expedition of 1598, Adams settled there and became the first ever (and one of the very few) Western Samurai.

Edgelord too, check out that fedora, trench coat, and neck beard. I bet he has an unsheathed katana in his other hand as well.
