Did he really create the Church of England because he couldn't get a divorce?

Yes, in fact, he got excommunicated because of it

He meant he was a cheeky bastard.
It was holy as declared by their clergy, it was Roman as declared by their emperor claiming descent from Charlemagne (Charlemagne carried on the spirit of Rome) and it was an empire (it was a collection of otherwise separate smaller German kingdoms.

germanic for sure.

Anglo-saxon were the dominant group during the reign of William the conqueror, and his ilk was frankish/scandinavian, which adds in even more germanic.

>The Romans, Vikings and Normans may have ruled or invaded the British for hundreds of years, but they left barely a trace on our DNA, the first detailed study of the genetics of British people has revealed.

>The analysis shows that the Anglo-Saxons were the only conquering force, around 400-500 AD, to substantially alter the country’s genetic makeup, with most white British people now owing almost 30% of their DNA to the ancestors of modern-day Germans.

no, no no.

culturally, absolutely. genetically, the vast, vast majority of people on island are still the same people that built stonehenge. more fair-haired looking people were noted living there in roman days. they just got culturally assfucked by the germanic invaders and became angles, for better or worse.

>Implying Christians read the Bible.

Have you ever looked down at one of those lists about all the old testament prophecies Jesus fulfilled? Half of them are in psalms, a non-prophetic work, and a lot of the rest aren't messianic in any way, shape, or form, like God's pronouncement to Eve that her descendents will war endlessly with the snake.

If they could read the Bible, they probably wouldn't be Christians.

>>994529

This. It's like the quickest cure for soemone being a muslim is to make them read the Koran, Christians have this idea about the Bible as this special and obviously accurate book, actually reading it would be a massive test of their faith,

>>994529
This drive me mad. I've gone through Matthew and looked up the scriptural sources to all the fullfilled prophecies and in my head I was screaming the whole time "WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS?!" by far my favorite is the fullfilled prophecy of Judas's death. the prophecy it fullfilled isn't even in the bible (well technically it is). It's a combination of a non-prophecy in Jeremiah where he buys land and a prophecy in Zechariah.

You're saying Marx was the first to note that society is violent and that this observation is the foundation of his theories?

is there a darker side to buddhism? any branch of it that advocated violence, or had otherwise crazy beliefs? from what I know, it was mostly an ok religion. regardless if you agree with their teachings or not, they at least usually left people alone.

>>988043
This, pretty much. It allows you to have some sort of religion or meaning in your life besides exploitative capitalist consumption without actually believing into anything that is too unrealistic.

Ancient Korea achieved nothing of note. It was a weak vassal state.
