So I had a history exam today and one of the questions was:
Which one of these is not Greek?
a) Athens
b) Democracy
c) Alexander the Great
d) Sparta
What does /his/ think of this question?
>>903462
Alex most likely.
Makedon was considered Barbaroi by Greeks
But Alex had a Greek Mum tho.
>>903462
Do you live in FYROM?
>>903463
"Barbaroi" also means "people I don't like" to Ancient Greeks. For example, the Spartans called the Athenians that during the Peloponnisian War
What can you tell me about this ring, historically?
>>901310
its the cock ring I wore when i fucked your mom. i guess it fell off after i came inside her and came out when she gave birth to you
>>901345
You must have a small cock, it's about size 5 1/2
>>901310
Must be a ring that was sold to German soldiers if they acquired an iron cross.

Beautiful historical uniforms thread.
Pic related- a British military musicians coatee.

I like elegant uniforms. I've seen some uniforms that can be camo and look okay, but there's something about older uniforms. I guess I just don't like green.
Looks like a poorly researched reproduction. Seems to be trying to be a Napoleonic era jacket but with a later Crimean cut and collar.
Can we talk about Charlemagne?
I would love some book recommendations, in German or English if you know any good ones.
>mfw Saxons near me
>Holy
>Roman
>Empire
But yeah, Charlegmane does seem like a pretty cool guy, would also really like to have a good biography recommendation.

If two man dies without faith, one after murdering several people and one after spending his life helping others, do they both go to hell according to Christianity?
And if they both go to hell, do they go to the same hell?
If anyone got anything about the Islamic view on it I am all ears.

>If two man dies without faith, one after murdering several people and one after spending his life helping others, do they both go to hell according to Christianity?
Because maybe it isn't so much about a old man in the sky passing judgement on you personally, maybe it's a fact that both souls go to the same place by virtue of some sort of natural law.
Maybe, while their "crimes" are completely different, they both result in the same ending. In the case of...

This new Pope supposedly caused a petty big uproar because he claimed that you just have to be decent human bean to avoid damnation.
I am debating with a friend of mine about Religion Vs. Science (yawn).
She asserts that because Science can be empirically measured, objectively observed, that it is infallible and true. Religion is subjective and, as she puts it, "non-objectively-observable", and separated from the measurements of physicality.
My friend argues that the philosophy, likewise, deals with the "ephemeral" qualities under mysticism, spirituality, and qualitative writings - as opposed to the quantitative and tangible playthings of science.
How may I better...

It has never been "religion vs science".
This is a myth perpetuated by atheists.
It has always been a religious conflict.
Darwinism is a satanic cult that seeks to depose God. The conflict is religious in nature and this is what the Freemasons/occult societies know.

tell me about Haile Selassie, the king of Rastafarianism.
He was Coptic Orthodox
>>892844
Ethiopian Orthodox is way too distinct in its own rite to be labeled as Coptic. Not to mention the Ethiopian church was granted autocephaly during his reign.

Has a proper response to this ever been formulated?

Only a bunch of arguments by necessity which really don't address how creation by an infinity complex creator solves the problem of complexity

What's that?

>post-structuralism
What's the deal with people's sudden obsession with this? In the last two years I keep seeing it all the time on 4chan. And I heard it in real life a few times too, used by "hipsters" (it's a meaningless buzzword, but I don't know what to call them) and nerdy suburban white teenagers. Seems like ever since this Derrida guy got more popular and acknowledged, all the kids have been talking about this and name-dropping this "le epic structuralism"...

Structuralism and post-structuralism are opposites. Structuralism tends to be obsessed with tradition and duality while Post-structuralism seeks to deconstruct everything.
For instance, structuralists will say the male/female conflict is an important theme of human society, while a post-structuralist will say gender doesn't exist.
I recently (a few months ago) read Albion's Seed by David Hackett Fischer. In it he talks about the settlement of what became the U.S., broken into four regions: New England, the Midlands (Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware), Tidewater (Virginia, Maryland, and the Carolinas), and Appalachia. He talks about what sort of people generally settled there from the British Isles, and how all four regions can trace their cultural lineage to a region of Britain.
New England was settled primarily by Puritans from Anglia/Eastern England, Appalachia by northern English and Lowland...

Not many people came here until after the Seven Years War. Before then it was mostly French.
We've got mostly descendants of Highland Scots and Northern English in the Maritime Provinces while United Empire Loyalists settled in Ontario and New Brunswick after 1812. Not sure about Newfoundland but they were a British colony until 1949 so I'd assume they're all descended from more recent English and Irish immigration.

Interesting, so did all of your French people outside Quebec get deported to Louisiana? I also heard of a few Acadians going to New England too. But like was the whole population almost transplanted? And why did Quebec stay French?
>>903051
No there are lots of French people in other provinces. Basically Quebec is the epicentre and the fewer it gets the further away from it you go, with BC and the territories being the least amount of francophones and the maritimes/parts of Ontario being the most.
